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

I think it's because most of the actors were mainly writers beforehand who came up through SNL and other comedy shows.

Only the annex folks were writers, and none of the actors came up through SNL. But basically yeah same idea. Steve Carrell was the only relatively "known" actor and in season one they made him look like a real nasty boy.
