When citing items using BibTeX, only the cited items show up in the bibliography (unless you use \nocite{*}).
Can I have the same effect for normal \bibitems that are at the end of my .tex file?
(I have a long list that I use for several longer reports.)

Most probably you have \nocite{*} somewhere in the body of your document; this command will cause all entries of the chosen bibliographical database to be included in the list of references.
Simply delete \nocite{*} and re-compile your document (using, for example, pdflatex+bibtex+pdflatex+pdflatex).
The \nocite command can also be used with a key-list as its argument; in this case, it will write the bibliographical information associated to the key-list (even if the publication(s) is(are) otherwise not cited) into the list of references.
The first optional argument of the command \bibitem is executing by the command \@biblabel which have one mandatory argument.
My suggestion uses commands with @ and so you must handle them as describe in the question: What do \makeatletter and \makeatother do?
For the first choice you can gobble the mandatory argument by the following assignment:
\let\@biblabel\@gobble
For the second choice you can use a small trick. The justification of the bibliography label is done by \@biblabel{#1}\hfill. To gobble the \hfill to get your requested alignment you can use \hfill as part of the definition of \@biblabel
\def\@biblabel#1\hfill{[#1]}
In the mwe below I have implemented both solutions:
\listfiles
\RequirePackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents*}{\jobname.bib}
@BOOK{book1,
author = {John Doe and John Smith},
title = {Title},
publisher = {Publisher},
edition = {edition},
year = {year},
}
@BOOK{book2,
author = {John Doe and Eva Smith},
title = {Title2},
publisher = {Publisher2},
edition = {edition},
year = {year},
}
@MISC{misc1,
author = {John Doe},
title = {Title},
year = {year},
}
@MISC{misc2,
author = {John Doe and Max Musterfrau},
title = {Title},
year = {year},
}
\end{filecontents*}

If you are prepared to accept that
\bibitemshould be ended by a blank line, then you can modify some of the code fromsource2eandrefcheckto make this work. You have run latex three times to get the correct numbering in the text.The first part of the code is
refchecks modification to the\citecommand so that use of a bibitem is recorded. The second part is a modification of the core latex\bibitem, so that it always records the label in the.auxfile, but only prints out the body if the item has been cited.If you need to use this with
hyperrefso there are links to the bibliography, then the coding has to be adapted tohyperref's versions on\@lbibitemand\@bibitem, sincehyperrefsimply overwrites the current definition. This is given as follows, notice the positioning of the loading of thehyperrefpackage:
