This might sound a bit cliché, but ASDFing can make a sad face ( :( ) into a shai ( :| ) face or even a pat face ( :D )...
Just talking a bit... Watching you guys argue... Feeding Keja's ego... It's fun... :)

The antoginist being revealed as an estranged family member of the protagonist, usually at a crucial point while the two are in a confrontation, again usually with the protagonist coming off worse at the end.

^this is a common plot device used in many movies, books, TV shows, etc. right now I can only think of Star Wars where Darth Vader reveals to Luke Skywalker that he is actually his father. You can probably find a lot of example in soap operas (daytime television often known to be extremely cliché)

there are simpler clichés though.. i just can't think of any but musical ones that are hard to explain..

it's basically a conventional pattern of something, that is used commonly, and can be quite boring for selective people.

So Luke is the good guy and Darth is the bad guy...

So what keja said was that the bad guy reveals a connection to the good guy which creates a dilemma of some sorts?!...

Yes. Star Wars was probably the first to start the trend, but many fantasy novels written after 1980 have used the cliché.
