People getting the sleeve of their dressing gown caught on a door handle as they walk past necessitating a slow-mo pirouette to make sure they don't spill their tea.

Handbrakes being applied anywhere in the US. They always stop and then the car rolls forward another foot as they get out.

Westerns: Fields full of cowboys on horses for the whole film. No horse ever takes a crap on camera. Same with Lassie etc...

Old romantic films: Lead players get close, full string orchestra sparks up. Where the f*** is it sitting?

Action adventure: At least one of the multiple fully trained baddies chasint the hero that can point a fully automatic weapon at the hero and hit the target with just one of the relentless spray of lead.

Road trip films: Engine note in synch with the scenery / white lines crawling past.

Porn: "I can't, I have my period".

70's bawdy comedies: A young girl that tells the ancient "Reg Varney" or similar lecher chatting her up to "eff off you dirty old, decrepit git, if you were the last man on earth I'd turn lesbian".

Dialling out it never takes more than a second for someone to answer, nor more than a second for them to say their opening bit before our hero can get on with the script.

Nobody ever stumbles in the middle of a sentence, forgets a word, hiccups, coughs, sneezes or mispronounces anything.

Nobody ever calls anything a doobery, a whatsit or a thingummy.

He used the Bond mooring knot. It works a bit like a highwaymans hitch.

No anti-hero drug dealer, porn pusher, arms runner or crimial kingpin's empire can ever survive the 'love interest'. They can be shot, stabbed, burnt, arrested and imprissoned and it's no more than a bump in the road - fall in love and they're ether dead or lose it all in 4 sceens or less.

No-one ever says "pass me the tissues" or "eurgh, that's on my side of the bed" after making love.

People saying goodbye at the end of a phone call. Everyone just hangs up on each other.

They never learn do they? Five hours and they still can't say goodbye.

Anyway, people taking a damned good dump or running out of toilet paper.

Women are able to have satisfying and instant orgasms whilst having stand up sex. I've never even managed the stand up sex thing. It's always ended up with us on the floor or cracking my knob on the worktop!

Not a movie, but have you seen Archer? That happens all the time and not just for comedy purposes.

Cliche: But nobody ever goes to the toilet. Even when they go into the nightclub's football pitch sized gents it is just to look in the mirror before having a massive fight.

considering most of the films we watch are made by the US with US stars, have you seen the yanks shoot?

i am sure I once read that during the Vietnam war the US military used 2000 (yes 2k) rounds for every viet cong they managed to bag.

just look at predator, they cleared a section of jungle and 'we hit nothin'
