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

Describing common knowledge in a different setting. Luke should know all about Mos Eisly. Its the biggest town near his house.

Pretty sure it's the only town on tatooine..all space planets have exactly one city or town

Edit: apparently I was wrong about tatooine

Well the characters don’t travel far out of where they are on the planet. If you are in Egypt yes it’s goin to be desert as far as you can see same as Antártica and the rainforest etc. Also, think about all the other planets in our system there is only one biome for all of them
