...what are the full 'laws of hollywood'.

By this I mean in the cheesiest, most predictable hollywood flick what do you *know* will happen?

So far I have...

The Laws of Hollywood aka the 'Laws of Spielberg'

There will be a heroic rescue.
The bad guys will die.
The lead character survives, always.
The good guy gets the girl.
There will be a fight scene, the hero will win.

"just got two more days 'till retirement..."

Though i think maybe red shirts are less important than that - they're kinda one dimensional, no back story, no history or motivation. If they're lucky they get a name.. they're the uniform officer who gets told to 'check the perimeter' or the guard who goes to 'get a coffee' and doesn't come back.

People who are going to retire/have pictures of kids/are getting married tend to know the hero, giving him ample opportunity to scream
"Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!" when they are mown down
