As predictable as a cuppa coffee

I’m willing to wager the most oft-repeated line in Hollywood movies is: ‘Would you like to get a cuppa coffee?’
I have been tracking this for some time now (yes, I do have a life) across all genres of movies, as well as random channel surfing. I have been truly amazed at how often the line is used.
Obviously, you’re unlikely to hear the java jibe in a Rob Zombie or Tarantino flick, but any other film scene in which a guy and a girl are on an emotional collision course – you will hear the coffee line.
