Making bleeping noises when a key is pressed...
Does anyone here have the misfortune to be exposed to NCIS? My OH watches it as a daily religious duty. Making bleeping noises when a key is pressed...
Every single computer bleeps every time anyone touches it. Drives me to despair.
Along with everything else about that damn franchise

It is often real code, something like C, Java or Python, or copied from a coding tutorial site. Sometimes its a really neat easter egg like the one for Ex Machina on page 6, but the next post after it is a silly one from CSI Cyber
Having a store CCTV camera ROTATE around people in Enemy of the State. Literally impossible unless the camera was on a moving track which happened to be running in a ring around their heads!
Good film though

Or that MI6 has the money to splurge on limited edition Aston Martins full of extra expensive gadgetry for it's agents.
They might get a company Ford Focus Style with satnav and that's about it.
I know what you are saying but is a film, make believe init. Who wants to see Bond getting out of a Vaxhaul insignia in his Next suit?They might get a company Ford Focus Style with satnav and that's about it.
Makes me laugh when people pick on tiny premises in bond films, the whole story is based on a man who works for the UK government, who has a "license" to wander the earth and kill whomever he sees fit with no justification or accountability.

Anything military.
This surprises me a bit. Whilst Stallones exploits clearly bear no resemblance to actual combat, what about films like a bridge to far, black hawk down and more recently Fury. I went to Bovingdon last week and there was an exhibit explaining how they provided a lot of support to ensure accuracy. My feeling would be those guys know what they are talking about.glazbagun said:
Also every time a protagonist is falling to his death, only to grab a ledge/convenient thing with his fingertips. Not. Going. To. Happen.
And leading on from this... Once the hero is hanging by his fingertips onto a bridge/ledge he always manages to pull himself up onto level ground effortlessly. How?

Reality is twisted in their favour to create moments of exhilarating victory, a precursor to the super-hero, where they wind reality back further. Reality and story are not great together to equate entertainment, so reality is enhanced.
But everyone knew that already.

IMDB message boards are full of complaints about how "this actor has obviously never fired a gun in anger" or "this actor has obviously never served in uniform". No s
t, Sherlock, and the clue is 'actor'. Nobody gives Tom Hanks pelters for never having actually flown in a Saturn V or Daniel Day Lewis for never actually having drilled for oil.rb5er said:

This annoys me in Commando.The yellow 911, battered and rolled onto its side magically becomes brand new in the next scene.

But you can be reasonably sure that they consulted NASA and BP for some pointers on how such things would work.Errors in the military, or more to the point, firearms, does seem to upset a lot of people.

some demand an unreasonable amount of realism
for what is just vague representation to tell a story.
But then again, there are people on here who would quite happily moan that the Mercedes that they used in Fast and Furious 9 couldn't be that one, as they only made 25 of the 500 SXE 9.8 quin litre Coupes and anyway they didn't come out until November the 21st 1985, and if you look at 1hr :39 mins you can clearly see leaves on the trees behind Rex Fister.

EDIT
but I get your point.
The equivalent for me was in the Inbetweeners movie.
They get dropped off by Simon's dad at North Terminal.
They then are seen to get on the Gatwick terminal shuttle, which goes to the South Terminal (where you can get dropped off anyway) but then the next scene, they are filmed at a check in desk which is still in the North terminal.
And, at the end of the film when they arrive back (and this is the same in Inbetweeners 2) they arrive back through the Domestic arrivals route, which since they had come back from Greece and/or Australia, wouldn't be the case at all.

Terminator lets freeze and shatter the t1000
Then watch it as it all melts again and joins together instead of scooping the bits up and throwing them in the furnace next to them.
I love that movie but this bit ALWAYS bugs me. Don't just fThen watch it as it all melts again and joins together instead of scooping the bits up and throwing them in the furnace next to them.
king stare at it like mongs. It takes at least 30 seconds for it to reform during which time it is TOTALLY vulnerable. Grab the nearest bucket and broom and just sweep it up and dump it in the furnace. Instead they choose the retard option of running away again like thats worked out well for them so far.Edited by Guvernator on Tuesday 14th June 17:36

On a similar note. In Harry Potter: The deathly hollows part 1. When they are escaping from the death eaters at the begining of the film. Harry flies north through the dart ford tunnel (the bridge is on the right) and the cars are coming towards him. Now I had considered that the bridge might be shut, but when he flies out of the other end you can see traffic in both bores is going south and there is traffic on the bridge.EDIT
