Today's guest Chris Vander Kaay, breaks down the formulaic and
predictable glory that is Hollywood filmmaking and how to avoid
it.

His new book Spoiler Alert!: The Badass Book of Movie Plots: Why We
All Love Hollywood Cliches takes 38 mainstream movie genres,
from ‘Teen Sex Comedy’ and ‘Buddy Action Comedy’ to ‘Film Noir
Detective Thriller’ and ‘Alien Invasion Thriller’, and through
detailed illustrations reveals what makes them so hilariously
recognizable: the key lines of dialogue, the essential visuals, the
crucial characters and the indispensable cast, scenes, and
props.

So grab some popcorn and buckle up for a laugh-out-loud ride
through the wonderful world of cliché!
