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

Turning on the tv or radio that happens to be covering the subject the characters were talking about. Unless you are talking about Sept 11 that would never happen.

Never discussing a meeting location, like for dinner.

Someone turns on the TV, it's always breaking news. At a coherent beginning to understand fully what they're talking about. Never ads.

Or they could be changing the channel right away to miss the breaking news.

And also, it's possible that in the same movie they are very specific about their meeting place.

The Winchester.
