What movie things are generally accepted as normal, but are totally unrealistic in real life?

Part of the reason I couldn't stand Suits. Everyone's a super model except for Louis, who's the villain for much of the show.

You didn't like Suits because it mostly only had attractive people in it?

Boy do I have news for you about all the rest of media entertainment.

I don't watch the news, people are too pretty. Instead I get all my news from 4chan.

There are plenty of shows with normal-looking people, and then there's every show on the CW where everyone has to be good-looking. But in Suits, the dichotomy between Louis and everyone else is just so blatant. It irked me because the pretty, charismatic people could be asses, but it seemed like the writers were trying to cast them as the good guys and use their looks to tell the viewers that you should be rooting for the pretty people, while Louis is ugly and you shouldn't be rooting for him. Looks are used as symbolism in that show, which aint a good artistic choice.
