Default Ever notice in the movies...?

...all air-vents are just big enough for the hero to squeeze through and climb to safety?

...the main character can afford to stay in a three-story Queen-Anne-style Victorian house on her teacher's salary?

...there's always a loaf of french bread and celery sticking out of the top of each bag of groceries?

...John Wayne fires off one bullet and forty Indians fall over?

...cops always taste the white powder to verify that it's the real stuff?

...the victim will trip over anything that's in the way while the murderer just strolls along at a leisurely pace behind?

...?

Oh yeah! I forgot my favorite...and the bad guys always unveil their plans before leaving the hero tied up in a room with an "unnecessarily slow dipping mechanism".

You see in Naked Gun (forgot which one) where O.J. is assembling his assault weapon while there's a shootout? He just keeps on clicking and putting it together. Then he has this little tank-gun thing by the time he's done.

Hilarious!

In movies where multiple bad guys are attacking the hero, they all more or less move about indecisively, in effect waiting their turn be be dispatched. They never just dog-pile onto the hero and subdue him. Well, except for the old "Hulk" TV series with Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno, that was David Banner's cue to turn into Hulk.

Rumely! Thanks! That one made me crack up!

Then in the movies, whenever the characters go to a prom or something, everybody knows how to dance and is out on the dance floor having a blast!

In Christmas movies, the houses are always so well-decorated, but you never see them unpacking stuff and getting angry over it, pounding fingers with hammers and all.

Whoopi Goldberg: "He ravaged me...and he ravaged me, and he ravaged me! Then he left for six hours, and when he came back...And When He Came Back!? What was you still doing in the house???"
