Please throw in anything that makes an 80's movie typical.
I will start:
The good guy starts going out with the bad guys sister.

There's of course no such thing as a good Russian/Arab/Japanese
Motor madness is often a prerequisite, sometimes starting for no seemingly good reason, but unless the hero's named Indiana Jones, he'll survive it absolutely unharmed

Jason was very slow stalker type in the first few films but became this fast walking magician in part 6. I sure would like to know his training program Posts: 7082 | From: Finland | Registered: Feb 2008 | Site Updates: 7

The ``Getting Ready To Go Out`` scenes. A peppy song playing in the background...showers, hair, make-up, outfits...then the slow walk down the stairs for the reveal!! Didn`t realize it til I wrote down...there`s a scene like this in every single 80`s movie!!! How much time have we spent watching people getting ready to go out for a night on the town...hours I tell ya!! Posts: 2148 | From: Nova Scotia, Canada | Registered: Aug 2007 | Site Updates: 0

That reminds me of when the guy is looking in the mirror rehearsing how he is going to ask a girl out or his game plan on how to score.

The good guy has to have a showdown with the bad guy at the end of the movie either in a fight or a sports competition. This usually results in the good guy winning the bad guy's respect.
Sheeesh, how many movies can you list off like this?
