What you're noticing is either formulated or stock foley sound.
It's an industry standard in the post-production world to use samples from a common bank to add in sound effects or to create sound effects using a method. When the same sound is used, it is obvious why they sound similar. When a method is used to produce a sound effect, it may sound similar because a similar technique was used to produce the sound effect. Often, the source of an effect is very dissimilar from the action in the shot supposed to have produced it. Spend some time working with sound effects, and you will hear like 7 or 8 of these effects that get used OVER AND OVER again in movies, tv, radio, advertisements, etc., and it will drive you absolutely batty.
Hi.
