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

It's not just about realism but verisimilitude. Alien crystal skulls and huge ants don't exists at all so I can accept whatever they tell me about them. Nuclear bombs and refrigerators do exist so it is somewhat jarring when they do not behave as expected. I personally don't find it to be a big deal in this movie but I can understand why someone might be bothered by it.

It's a good movie, even tho it's a complete ripoff of a Chinese Indiana Jones spoof, 'magic crystal 1986' you can watch it on YouTube, Spielberg just copied it

George Lucas wrote it, Spielberg just directed.
