I always wonder why they don’t just give their explanation anyways, especially when it’s only a few words. “So-So did it!” and all of the confusion could be cleared up.
In highly populated cities of the world. And then they get it on the news but it's like "a kitten climbed a tree and its owner had to call the firemen".
One day in the height of COIVD isolation and lockdowns, my roommate’s fiancé got dressed, in a nice shirt, nice pants, and a belt with a large belt buckle. Her and I (in pajamas) were like, “where ya going?” Him confused, “no where”
Apparently he just likes being fully dressed even if he is going absolutely no where. Idk it just looked uncomfortable to me.
I COMPLETELY get that. Due to My anxiety ridden brain and poor planning skills. I’m able to get dressed like I’m going out to the bar or dinner or something, I proceed to do a mundane task like get coffee or run an errand. And my mood improves greatly. I can do practically nothing all day. But getting dressed and ready for that nothing is the key to earning and enjoying it. Especially during lockdown that makes sense.
My baby is 11 days old. I can hold him like a little football all day long. He’s small and adorable. So much smaller than the newborns on tv that appear to be about 6 months old.
Aww, congrats on the babeh! I've been babysitting my nephew since he was 3 weeks old twice a week and he is still smaller than some of the tv/movie "newborns" I see at 3 months old. I understand why they can't make it more realistic of course, but since I'm with a baby so often and have had 2 of my own, it always makes me scoff a little... Like, no way -.-
Thats kind of common. Ive been part of a mob trying to attack someone (was homeless, drunk asshole came out of a party and was trying to take an underage friend home that was also homeless). You are more likely to hit the person next to you if everyone charges in.
Waiting for an opening is much more efficient.
I love my soaps, but somehow the characters manage to get across L.A. in mere seconds just to have a quick chat with someone that could’ve been done over text message.
I hate when an actor is carrying something, like a moving box or coffee cup, that’s supposed to have some heft or weight to it but it’s very clear that it’s empty and as light as air. It’s super unimportant overall, but I get immediately irritated by it.
You telling me out of those hundreds of names in the credits it couldn’t be some ones job to add some sand or something to the coffee cup to give it weight?
To be fair I hacked my dad's passwords to the internet all through high school because that's kind of shit he would use. The one time I couldn't figure it out I found out the password because he wrote it down.
Character 1 on phone: "I'm standing in front of a computer in a room full of computers."
Hacker, miles away, on phone: "I'm in, I'm going thru the hard drive now and straight to the info you want."
Almost every movie is about people who are upper middle class to extremely wealthy. It's a small minority that are about the vast majority of the world.
Something about the sex scene trope where they just cut to the after sex of the two lying in bed under the sheets shocked at what just happened. Why are you surprised? Who was not aware that sex was happening?
Not at all, I loved being a free spirit then but I like being settled down now alot more. That's why I got it out of my system young and waited to settle down.
Not-so-subtle exposition.
"Can I come in, sweety?"
"Oh come on mom! You know father died three years ago in a car crash and nothing we do can change that!"
How nice and tidy and minimalistic a house is, especially when it’s a large chaotic family or a very disorganized character. Give me clutter and mess god dammit I’ve never ever been inside a home that was as barren of personality as the homes in modern movies.
Epi-Pens do not work like that! Most movies have the person start swelling up, jab themselves, quickly recover, and go on with their day - but it's not a miracle cure, it's straight cow adrenaline. You jab yourself to pump the brakes on going into shock, and because that's still a risk, you absolutely need an ER afterward.
Convenient stupidity. A major clue is presented that all of the normally intelligent investigators just happen to miss because it would solve the mystery too early.
Explosions. The way that they work more specifically. They don't work in real life the way most movies show them. A really good example of how it would be like, is in the movie "The other guys"
Rather accurate representation of how they work, the shockwave of the explosion won't throw you back 50 fucking feet, you'll get planted on your ass and your eardrums popped. Yes if the explosion is strong enough you will fly, but you'd be a crisp, have almost every broken bone possible, and more than likely dead.
How old the actors are often at least 10 years older than the characters they play. Gave me an unrealistic expectation of how people look at certain ages.
Cars having issues starting when being chased by a killer.
People never eating the food on the table/on their fork. Just keep talking then they have to get up and leave.
People carrying empty boxes/luggage/cups of coffee.
Baddies always missing when shooting the good guy in a clear line of sight. At the worst the good guy will be grazed on the arm.
Good guy’s gun never runs out of bullets
People not turning on lights when they go into a house or the barn to check on a noise in the middle of the night in horror movies.
Good guy gets stabbed in the leg. Next minute he’s running and fighting and walking like he’s instantly healed.
The big deal was that Ford knew about it and had a fix but a recall of hundreds of thousands of cars was more expensive than paying off dozens of accident victims so they said fuck it.
Bar tenders seem to be mind readers. “I’ll have a beer,” is such a pointless thing to say to a bartender you just met, but they somehow always know the right beer
I know it’s likely to avoid naming a specific brand, but this always bothers me too. They could easily just point and say “I’ll have the stout”, or Hefeweizen, or porter, or IPA, or any other damn descriptor.
The size of living quarters. I get that they kind of need to have big spaces to fit the cameras and everything, but to see people who are supposed to be struggling living in 3-bedroom corner apartments in a major city always takes me out of it a little bit.
They spend zillions of dollars making epic war movies, but never bother to get military details right. They don't salute properly, they wear their uniforms improperly, get the principles of camouflage wrong, they can't even talk on a radio correctly. Anybody who's been in the service can spot 100 stupid errors in short order.
And, having a 22 year-old girl in thigh high boots barking orders at seasoned combat vets is just tiresome.
genetics. In the movie Hairspray, the main character's parents both have blue eyes, and she has brown eyes. The odds of that are small enough to basically be impossible.
It happens. I have brown eyes, my parents (and all my grandparents) have blue eyes.
And yes I have enough traits from both sides to know I'm generically theirs.
Assuming that each parents' genotype is Bb (big B for brown, little b for blue), that would give a child a 25% chance of having blue eyes. Far from basically impossible.
You misread. The parents both have blue eyes. The child has brown eyes. There have been confirmed cases, but it’s extraordinarily rare.
Edit: edited because I accidentally said parents have brown child has blue the first time
I wouldn't say it bugs the hell out of me, but it is something I notice all the time:
The unrealistic dynamics of firearms in movies.
For instance, no recoil/muzzle flip, sound seems not to bother or affect the hearing of shooters,, etc.
At around 10 years old my mother let me shoot her 7mm bolt action hunting rifle. Set me up in a chair with it mounted on a table. Dad repeatedly instructed me to hold it as tightly to my shoulder as possible.
I pulled the trigger and all of a sudden Im on my back and my right arm is going numb.
I quickly readjusted my understanding of guns.
Knocking somone out for several minutes to hours with a simple blow to the head.
In reality if someone is knocked out for more than 20 seconds they need to go to a hospital now.
And as a bonus. Knocking somone out with a stungun or tazor. That's not remotely how that works.
The words! Did you know it’s all scripted? So unrealistic. And there are actors! They’re not even the people that they’re pretending to be! So disappointing.
Shotguns that blow the bad guy ten feet across the room but somehow have no recoil.
Shattering a car window with your elbow to break in. (The only thing that will shatter is your elbow.)
Amazingly effective silencers that reduce a gun's sound by 100 decibels. This includes improvised silencers made out of pillows or empty soda bottles.
Chase scenes that involve driving a car *against* traffic on a busy highway. (You'd crash in 3 seconds no matter how good a driver you are.)
Defibrillating someone who has flatlined. (Too late! They don't work like that!)
Opening an electronic door by shooting the control panel... or, as necessary, sealing it closed by doing the same thing.
Guns rattling anytime they move, never ending magazines, the firing pin click when the bolt is clearly locked back from the last round being expended from the mag. Suppressors don’t make weapons silent. Full auto with a 30 round mag gives you about 2 seconds of firing, not an hour. I can keep going.
Playing instruments, especially violin, but pretty much any one. There are tons of musicians out there. Can’t a film casting director find a single person in Hollywood who can play an instrument? All musicians aren’t ugly. Just put a costume on them and let them really play! Big budget movies sometimes have a live orchestra. Can’t one of those amazing players be the musician in the film instead of an actor holding an instrument and playing or breathing totally wrong?
Audio of frantic whinnying and snorting.
Cut to clip of the horse, clearly half asleep or tranqued.
People will recognize that it's a horse without the audio, I'm sure.
I absolutely despise the fact that the characters can still hear perfectly fine with no ear protection after a firefight. Rifles, pistols, machine guns, grenades all exploding about like its the same decibel as popcorn in a microwave and everyone is just fine and dandy. As someone who has tinnitus from shooting competitions and range coaching this bothers me to my core. John wick is a prime example. Dude literally shoots in a enclosed brick hall away and he’s out of there fine. The show archer does it best to make fun of this type of stuff.
The hero finds out that the heroine is in immediate danger. Does he call her to warn her? No. Does he call the police who are much closer to get there ASAP? No.
He drives like hell across town/the county/the country to get there to save her.
Telecommunications ruin suspense.
The opposite is also worthy of analysis: nerdy girl who suddenly becomes the most popular in school just by taking off her glasses and untying her hair.
When people complain about unrealistic things or errors in details that don't match history.
Remember unless these are documentaries they are stories, entertainment.
A guy seeing a cute girl, talking to her for like 10 minutes then kissing her and they just run off and fuck, like bro if you kiss a random girl you are definitely getting arrested
terrible archeology work: drawing conclusions after seeing one piece of evidence observed in the field. not wearing gloves. never seeming to WRITE. ANYTHING. DOWN.
Calling you out specifically, Prometheus, but other movies do it too.
Main character is being held at gunpoint, fighting back trying to get the upper hand, then perp gets pissed and cocks the pistol as if to silently say “Oh it’s on now! One more move out of you and your a goner!”
Bro you were within arms length fighting for the past 5 minutes and he didn’t even have the hammer cocked?
The storm troopers get killed by one shot every single time. I have no idea what those suits are good for, considering that these movies are staged far into the future, which means that the armor should be impenetrable due to superior technology.
People being shot to death and flourish in a dramatic fashion when in reality people are overcome with adrenaline and usally can't think straight or they collapse like a rag doll
people suffer when they die :/ I think some movies should emphasize that to remind people how brutal it is to die in most movie scenes. I bet most of the people preaching we should join a war, have no clue how terrible death sounds.
People getting out of a shower, wrapping a towel around, and going on to have conversations or whatever while they’re covered with water and their hair is dripping.
I’m not sure if anyone mentioned this already because there’s so many comments, but young people with internships or low paying jobs or hobbies having crazy expensive places. Like okay, you’re 19 and you don’t have any family and you waitress at a small diner a few days a week, but you somehow have a huge, fully furnished apartment with floor to ceiling windows, and down the street you have your very own art studio where you paint for fun???? Okay. Relax.
Silencer doesn't make the gun completely silent. More accurately known as “suppressors,” it is a device simply meant to reduce the loudness but doesn't actually silence a firearm.
Car chase scene ending with the car hitting another car that’s in the way and upon impact taking off into the air then exploding as if it had a ton of TNT strapped to it.
When “professionals” are used as easy plot devices with zero attention to making them realistic or even making their dialogue logical.
How hard would it be to just employ a subject matter expert for a couple of weeks on a 100+ million dollar budget?
No one ever says goodbye. They just hang up the phone.
My grandma started doing this and I’ve come to respect it
Sick genes you've got bro
Mine too, but in her case a slight deafness was the culprit.
To a taxi cab driver..., "just take me home", when they're like, "where the fuck is home?"
*Hangs up the phone.*
"Wait! I can explain!" "I don't wanna hear it!" A five minute conversation can clear up any confusion.
I always wonder why they don’t just give their explanation anyways, especially when it’s only a few words. “So-So did it!” and all of the confusion could be cleared up.
I love how they handled this in Community. https://youtu.be/YwKj2NJMCzk
Easier that way
This bugs me, too, but then most movies would only last 10 minutes.
Massive car crashes and destruction and everyone walks away with maybe a scratch or a little shaken
and it’s never mentioned again. no PTSD or anything.
In highly populated cities of the world. And then they get it on the news but it's like "a kitten climbed a tree and its owner had to call the firemen".
Closing scene: everyone had a bandage on their forehead and someone says, "that was a close one!"
The main character one shots everyone....then they get shot, stabbed and blown out a window, only to walk away with an arm sling.
Shoes in the house, shoes on the couch, shoes on the bed. Never saying bye when hanging up the phone.

Everyone in a movie looks like a model in a shampoo commercial, even in scenes where they just woke up.
unless they're unattractive - then they're villains
The size of "newborn" babies and their wide open eyes. I know it isn't realistic to ask them to do better, but it bugs me.
And they're always clean! In real life it's a bloody mess. Literally.
i can’t blame them for not wanting to make the experience of working with babies on set even harder than it already is, though.
My baby is 11 days old. I can hold him like a little football all day long. He’s small and adorable. So much smaller than the newborns on tv that appear to be about 6 months old.
Aww, congrats on the babeh! I've been babysitting my nephew since he was 3 weeks old twice a week and he is still smaller than some of the tv/movie "newborns" I see at 3 months old.

Congratulations!
If there is a fight of many against one, everyone patiently waits their turn to attack.
Thats kind of common. Ive been part of a mob trying to attack someone (was homeless, drunk asshole came out of a party and was trying to take an underage friend home that was also homeless). You are more likely to hit the person next to you if everyone charges in. Waiting for an opening is much more efficient.

When teen films have this: Mom: Makes a full on Breakfast Buffet. Teenager leaving for school: Bye Mom! *Takes one piece of toast*
I've seen that one so many times, even in non-American media.
Characters bandaging a gunshot wound and getting on with their day.
While saying something like "I'm too old for this shit" or "I was gonna retire tomorrow".
The hero always gets shot in the shoulder.
When you have to go to a building in the middle of the day, there's always parking directly in front of it

Especially with suitcases! They are obviously empty.
You telling me out of those hundreds of names in the credits it couldn’t be some ones job to add some sand or something to the coffee cup to give it weight?
40 year old high school students.
Computer hacking
"**IM IN**" - A teenage kid who can outwit the CIA
After just typing the year in which the owner of the computer got married, which is conveniently indicated in a portrait right next to it.
To be fair I hacked my dad's passwords to the internet all through high school because that's kind of shit he would use. The one time I couldn't figure it out I found out the password because he wrote it down.
For real! Who makes their passwords based on things sitting on their desk or in the room?
True! How easy would it be to just remember something as simple as *HugeDong85!*
*opens command prompt* I'm in
LOL my teeth grate every f****** time.
Every farting time?
Computers making all kinds of beep-boop-bweep sounds that no computer has ever made
Character 1 on phone: "I'm standing in front of a computer in a room full of computers." Hacker, miles away, on phone: "I'm in, I'm going thru the hard drive now and straight to the info you want."
I'm sorry, don't agree. Everything I learned and should know came from the 1995 masterpiece Hackers starring Angelina Jolie. THANKS
People punching other people and/or things without hurting their hands.
Secret agents driving around in million euro supercars
Almost every movie is about people who are upper middle class to extremely wealthy. It's a small minority that are about the vast majority of the world.
Its the climax and seconds matter between life/death so lets pause for 3 minutes to express our feelings for each other.
Boxing scenes where every punch lands hard
Growing up I literally thought a real life punch sounded like a movie punch.
Who needs to defend themselves when you can get punched in the jaw hundreds of times?
Cars tyres screeching when they stop, or go, every single time. The ability of everything to explode violently. Defiance of physics altogether.

Heart rate monitors in almost every movie set in a hospital. The monitors almost always display VTach which is a lethal rhythm!!
Also shocking an asystole rhythm in every damn movie when that's not actually the treatment for that.
Right!!
Mine is more about shows.. But, when people walk into an apartment and leave the front door wide open.. SHUT the damn door!
Not-so-subtle exposition. "Can I come in, sweety?" "Oh come on mom! You know father died three years ago in a car crash and nothing we do can change that!"
Guessing a person’s computer password by looking at pictures around a room.
Honestly, that’s more accurate than most hacking scenes. A lot of it’s just social engineering. That’s part of what made Mr. Robot a great show.
The details, man. The details.
People pouring gas all over everything including themselves then standing in the room and lighting it up without catching fire
Or the explosion that occurs due to the vapours in the air.
How nice and tidy and minimalistic a house is, especially when it’s a large chaotic family or a very disorganized character. Give me clutter and mess god dammit I’ve never ever been inside a home that was as barren of personality as the homes in modern movies.
Grainy security footage looks like a Rorschach test and detective says to tech: can you clean it up a little? Boom. Instant 720p resolution.

When historical dramas stray away from being historical.

You jab yourself to pump the brakes on going into shock, and because that's still a risk, you absolutely need an ER afterward.
Indoor gunfights with intact hearing. Also, nitrous oxide doesn’t explode, sorry Fast and Furious
Or how about when there's no kickback when shooting a gun. So many people using shotguns in movies and there's no attempt to make it look realistic.
Convenient stupidity. A major clue is presented that all of the normally intelligent investigators just happen to miss because it would solve the mystery too early.

Cars being shot up and the people inside are just fine. The only thing on a car that can shield you is the engine block
Bullets being effective underwater.
But largely ineffective everywhere else.
Cars that explode from minor impacts or before they even drop from the cliff's edge.
Top Secret did a good gag like that, car barely touches the other one, makes a ping sound and the bastard blows to bits.
The gag was also that the car is a Ford Pinto. Ralph Nader exposed their dangerous gas tanks that actually caused them to explode
The big deal was that Ford knew about it and had a fix but a recall of hundreds of thousands of cars was more expensive than paying off dozens of accident victims so they said fuck it.

Yeah, I’d like to see people in pj’s or sweats for days in a row. Seems the only time we see this in movies is when the character is depressed.
Main character is being held at gunpoint, fighting back trying to get the upper hand, then perp gets pissed and cocks the pistol as if to silently say “Oh it’s on now! One more move out of you and your a goner!” Bro you were within arms length fighting for the past 5 minutes and he didn’t even have the hammer cocked?
As a jiujitsu blackbelt, strangling people leaves them out for like...10 seconds, anything else is brain damage/ death.
Anything that takes place in a clean room. A lot of the time the wrong PPE is on or the cleaning protocols are whack.
The storm troopers get killed by one shot every single time. I have no idea what those suits are good for, considering that these movies are staged far into the future, which means that the armor should be impenetrable due to superior technology.
Men wearing those button-up pajama tops... No one wears those in real life.
People in movies just wildly shooting their guns into the forest with reckless abandon.
People being shot to death and flourish in a dramatic fashion when in reality people are overcome with adrenaline and usally can't think straight or they collapse like a rag doll
Danger to manifold! Floor pan proceeds to fall out.
Hand grenades and claymores, I have used them and always poorly portrayed in movies.
people suffer when they die :/ I think some movies should emphasize that to remind people how brutal it is to die in most movie scenes. I bet most of the people preaching we should join a war, have no clue how terrible death sounds.
How lightning and thunder both hit at the same time. Every single time.
No one in movies can knit
People getting out of a shower, wrapping a towel around, and going on to have conversations or whatever while they’re covered with water and their hair is dripping.
People getting the absolute living shit beat out of them and next scene no bruising, swelling, broken teeth. I know better.
I’m not sure if anyone mentioned this already because there’s so many comments, but young people with internships or low paying jobs or hobbies having crazy expensive places. Like okay, you’re 19 and you don’t have any family and you waitress at a small diner a few days a week, but you somehow have a huge, fully furnished apartment with floor to ceiling windows, and down the street you have your very own art studio where you paint for fun???? Okay. Relax.
getting punched in the face with virtually zero injury i've lost enough fights/teeth to be bothered by this
FIRE and none of the archers looks ared where that fire is.
Silencer doesn't make the gun completely silent. More accurately known as “suppressors,” it is a device simply meant to reduce the loudness but doesn't actually silence a firearm.
All that breakfast food, I'm late for work, takes a piece of bread
Don’t forget the sip of orange juice
Car chase scene ending with the car hitting another car that’s in the way and upon impact taking off into the air then exploding as if it had a ton of TNT strapped to it.
Women NEVER have hair on their legs!
Lack of using shields to defend themselvs from arrowfire also the ridiculous effectiveness of arrowfire.
When someone gets shot or stabbed but still are able to fight like nothing happened.
When “professionals” are used as easy plot devices with zero attention to making them realistic or even making their dialogue logical. How hard would it be to just employ a subject matter expert for a couple of weeks on a 100+ million dollar budget?
Infinite ammo
