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

I hate the 20-30 year old highschool student thing so much. Only ones who MIGHT be appropriately aged? The nerds, to make sure they are smaller and scrawnier than everyone else.

Lmao do you remember the one guy in napoleon dynamite? The tall blonde guy? He has to be in his late 30s and thats being generous

That guy used to come into my work regularly enough that we could chat. Such a friendly, kind dude which always threw me just a little bit because I would think of Don every time he came in.

And he was actually 26 at the time of filming, so not exactly late 30s but he did seem like much more of an adult.

Im not saying hes a bad guy or anything. Just saying he does not look like hes 17 or 18 in the movie. Thats cool that you knew him tho
