Exclamation love!

For some reason or another, hollywood always manages to squeeze in a love story with every plot. Movies have become so predictable and we've only been watching them since 1867/1895.
thats hardly even 100 years! 100+ years and we are already recycling ideas. Im not saying I could do better, but I bet a movie could be made, with lots of entertainment value with out the love story. Or maybe people have become to conditioned to the standerd script and might be bored with out the sex/love.
what do you aficionados think?

I havnt seen Platoon [Shoot me]...but I cant agree with The Godfather.

If it werent for a love plot in that, so many memorable scenes would need to be lost. The car blowing up, Micheals line near the first about how he isnt like his familly....so many more
