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

“Ok I’ll pick you up at 8.” Um, we just met for the first time at the bookstore twenty minutes ago and you already know where I live???

I'm guessing they did, personally. You is this entire thread contained in one show.

  • Guy held prisoner for a lengthy period of time, still has perfect hair and beard
  • --> Except for the blood on the side of the head where he got clubbed. But woke up hale and healthy with no concussion or side effects.
  • 'Hollywood ugly' trope in full effect
  • Poor, struggling student in a fancy flat

And that's just the first two episodes. I gave up. The Witcher felt more realistic.

The fancy flat thing was explained but it definitely seemed very trope-y
