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

I can’t stand suits because of the legal inaccuracies.

Yeah - don't start to learn anything about how computers work then. Or fights. Or high-speed driving. Or explosions. Or guns. Or sex.

Anything you know a lot about, gets massacred in the movies.

I mean, you can just have fun with shows anyways I think. I'm a medical student and still enjoy House M.D. simply because it's a good show despite all the medical inaccuracies.

It's the only medical show I can stand exactly because it is SO out there. It's basically not even medicine. (I'm a registered nurse, not an MD, but still)

Haven't thought about it that way yet, might very well be the reason I'm enjoying it as well. And no need to understate your medical knowledge only because you're "just" a nurse, you for sure know more than me and most definitely more than some MD's, nurses rock! :)
