Some predictable things that happen in movies were pointed out to me by Will and Guy. I’ve added others that I’ve observed over the years. I wound up serving in Special Services (Not Special Forces) at one time in the military. One of my jobs was running the post theater. I watched each movie several times and began to look for faults in movies, e.g. a jet trail in The Ten Commandments, or tire tracks in a Civil War movie
Some truisms include:
1) During all police investigations, it will be necessary to visit a strip club at least once.
2) All grocery shopping bags contain at least one stick of French bread.
3) The Eiffel Tower can be seen from any window in Paris.
4) Even when driving down a perfectly straight road, it is necessary to turn the steering wheel vigorously from left to right every few moments.
5) When you turn out the light to go to bed, everything in your bedroom will still be clearly visible, just slightly bluish.
All beds have special L-shaped cover sheets that reach up to the armpit level on a woman but only to waist level on the man lying beside her.
6) Should you decide to defuse a bomb, don’t worry which wire to cut. You will always choose the right one.
7) It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts-your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one as they dance around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their predecessors.
Only in the movies!
