What makes an action movie cheesy?

[rappytaffy1]

I want to make a new cheesy action movie with so much cheesyness that will make your iq drop.My first one was lacking on some major cheesyness see sig so I want every idea possible(lines,scenarios,charecters,plots ect)

Example
-Cut the red wire,no the blue wire!
-Walking away from explosions

[punkandska66]

KIDS WITH GUNS much?

remember, don't look at the explosion when you walk away

[Ladri.]

remember, don't look at the explosion when you walk away

I never understood that because if I set off a huge fucking explosion I would want to watch it happen.

Then obviously you aren't cool (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sqz5dbs5zmo).

It's funny because it's true.

[Sacman]

Okay that was so bad that it was almost funny. You actually were on to something fun to watch if the quality had been better I might have made it all the way through. As such, the shifting white balance throughout was giving me a headache.

I would not have even considered it a parody of action movies if I had not known that was what you were going for. Again, with a little better direction and quality, I would have liked that.

Now on to the question.

One of the cheesiest action lines is, "Go on without me"

Or something along those line about leaving someone behind.

Have someone get shot in the arm and run around screaming and annoying the shit out of everyone else and bleeding profuse amounts of unnecessary blood

[Neaps]

No, when there is an explosion, you have to like fly trough the air, that doesn't happen in real life lol. Also, like in Transporter, he has a car and does al those crazy things with it , flys off buildings, and the car is perfectly fine. No scratches, nothing. That would be cool too.

[FoulMoon]

Expenditure of thousands of rounds of ammunition and never reload.

defeating of hundreds of anonymous henchmen.

either settle for mindless killing or A team style lots of explosions and gunfire but no one dies.

I'm getting to old for this...

drive/bike over a ramp explosion erupts on departure narrowly killing your hero.

amazing one liners

Arnie: stick around!
let of some steam.
your fired. etc.

short automated replys for robotic characters:
Terminator 3:
Terminator: Katherine Brewster? Have you sustained injury?
Kate Brewster: Drop dead, you asshole!
Terminator: I am unable to comply.

The 'I AM THE APLHA MALE SPEECH'
Rambo (2008)
Burnett (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0776584/): What did you do? We came here to help stop the killing! Who are you to...
John Rambo (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000230/): [grabs Burnett by the throat, and slams him up against a support beam] Who are you?
Sarah (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004748/): Let him go!
John Rambo (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000230/): They would've raped her fifty times... and cut your fucking heads off. Who are you? Who are any of you?

In any movie where "something" has happened and villagers come to look at it, they always decide to "go for help". The most expendable member of the group is left to "keep an eye on it", and supplied with a weapon or signaling device "in case something happens". Said member ALWAYS responds: "What could happen?" This is a certain signal that he will die, gruesomely, within 2 minutes.

And also of course nicholas cage (as other members pointed out)
His films are so bad you could probably hire him for about a fiver.

I found most of these gems via google.
And thats all i got for now.

The whole damsel in distress thing. When the evil guy takes someone who the main hero loves or is related to. Or having him get the girl in the end.

[IneptFilms]

Michael Bay...

Explooooosions!

Have someone get shot in the arm and run around screaming and annoying the shit out of everyone else and bleeding profuse amounts of unnecessary blood

Actually..that would be pretty funny...rather than the guy getting shot in numerous places, falling off of high things, and still having the presence of mind to defeat the largely undamaged bad guy, and be cool about it. Have him actually realistically getting hurt over everything that hurts, and whine and complain till someone else takes down the bad guy...

They live was the greatest movie ever

Someone saying

"I'm going in"

[InfiniteFilms]

-tough one liners are a must. biting the ring from a grenade, "eat this" then tossing it at the enemy.

-walking around with a massive machine gun with the bullet belt slung across the other arm and shooting, all while about 50 other guys are shooting at you and none of them can seem to hit you.

-cast keanu reaves for your film

[Alasdair]

"have a pineapple, fritz" *tosses grenade at nazi*

[GraySunProductions]

These two one-liners are an absolute must:

"Well, I bet that woke the neighbors!"

"It looks like our job here is done."

And obviously a lot of the cheesy action movie formula is over acting, dramatic characters.

[Alasdair]

"I'll try spinning, that's a good trick"
