What I learned from the movies

Excellent reference, Fujiko.

When you shoot one of your enemies henchmen down, one of them will always go down, still firing away on their sub-machine gun in random patterns.
Peace.

His name was Robert Parsons.

That you can never be served hard enough.

In the 70's, everything was bright.

X never, ever marks the spot.

-and-

X marks the spot.

Tight skirts and top atract the guy.
And you want the guy.

Do what Sam Jackson says, and you'll live.

Wimmins will always find a man no matter how much they think they don't want a man.

Bullets can be conveniently stopped by any metallic object like a cigarette case, cross etc carried in the the main character's clothing.

During the eighties any and everything was combustable and made for a pretty good bang.

Action Heroes were so buff, they could survive the fallout from a nuclear explosion in the venzuelean jungle after being nearly killed by a vicious alien hunter.

You will never see that sailboat.

Monkeys are taking over.

Druids are evil human-sacrificing femenists!

The heat and flames from an explosion will never cause horrible, disfiguring burns, unless it is dramatically appropriate for a villlan to be scarred and/or created in this way. If that's not the case, in the worst scenario, getting caught in one will result in your being thrown several feet away in slow-motion, maybe getting bruised when you hit the ground.

The first person to get naked dies.

Everyone goes out with a bang.

Death is a beatiful slow process in which the dying character person exposits valuable information and kiss the person holding the dying character.

Unless the character is a blonde teenage female, in which case she will die screaming, with lots of blood spattering the wall, and possibly a flash or two of breast before gurgling and getting dragged down some stairs.

Yeah, its gonna bite him there.
