Movie-Cliches

Movies have their own language. Besides the whole "Let's go", "Yes sir", "Go go go" shenanigans that I usually don't use so much in my daily life (which is surprisingly bereft of machine guns and tanks), there are certain common sentences that you just keep hearing over and over again in movies.

I scraped ~1500 movie scripts to see which sentences are overused. Interestingly, "I love you" ended up lower than I expected, at the 25th place. Two ranks below "Shut up", in fact.

Also, it turns out Charlie Kaufman uses "I don't know", like, ALL the time. 19 times in Synecdoche, NY and 18 times in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

Feel free to explore which movies tend to use these clichés to the max.
