Hell, James Bond would have been So DEAD, SO LONG AGO, it isn't funny. And don't get me started about BATMAN. If the Villain would just go ahead and shoot the Caped Crusader, instead of trying to eliminate him through some crazy, cockamamie scheme or elaborate "death plan" Alfred would have "Stately Wayne Manor" all to himself long ago. And these are just two examples.

Oh and this one REALLY gets me. Why do people always aim for the chest? In shows/movies where there are good guy cops or good guy spies, they always end up getting shot in the chest and --oh yay!-- the bulletproof vest saves them. I always want to know why bad guys don't aim for the head more. Especially at close range.

The "bad" person could have the "hero" dead in their sights, at point blank range, and empty their gun's cartridge, and nary a bullet would even NICK the "hero"... YET, the "hero" could be down to their last shot, be 100 yards away, the "villain" is behind a tree/building/whatever, and for a split second they POKE their head out from behind said protective object, and BLAMMMMOOO...brains splattered everywhere!!

It's like after 25 bullets to the body how 'bout you try the fucking head! Oh wait now you're out of bullets.

This is when person A wants to finally tell something bad to person B, but B jumps in first to tell A about how wonderful A is and how B is so glad to be with them. and just starts gushing on. Then after finishing, B will say to A "So, what was it you wanted to say?" and A will just stand there all sheepish and go 'Um, never mind, it was nothing. Let's go eat.' or something. Then the plotline of whatever horrible thing A did continues on for the next episode/hour of the movie. Like, why can't you just fucking STILL tell them what you were going to say? I hate this too although my issue is with the person who interrupts the person who is about to confess something. The confessor is usually like 'I have something really really important to tell you' or 'can I go first?' and Person B interrupts and tells them how proud he is or whatever and I just hate when Person B won't let the confessor finish talking! Grr. THIS!!!! Soooo annoying. Plus I would never just say oh okay to someone who just said they wanted to tell me something and then change their mind. I wanna fucking know what they were gonna say!!! Oh God yes. I agree. The other version of this is usually happens in a thriller/myster/horror movies: A: I have something really important to tell you. We don't have much time. B: What do you mean. What do you have to say? blah blah cakes (Basically wasting the short time they have). A: I have to tell you what is really going on... (basically not getting to the DAMN point) then they die from their injuries or the killer stabs them from behind before they can confess whatever the hell secret they were holding on to. I hate that!

I can totally believe a guy can be that stupid. Especially if they met a hot girl - the brain sort of melt around them. He should have noticed when he talked to her that it wasn't the same person though. My issue is that I didn't think Uma Thurman was all that hot but I guess tall and blond is all is needed to fit the bill.

I'm going to the police and I'm going to tell them EVERYthing!!!" Uh, idiot? You sure that's the best thing to tell someone when you're alone with them? You're signing your death warrant.

Dylan is taking a shower and doesn't hear Brandon knocking on the door. After no response to his knocking and finding the doors locked, Brandon then decides to break a window in Dylan's door and let himself in. Nobody thinks that this is weird and Dylan is portrayed as being out of control because he heard the glass shatter and confronted Brandon with a gun.

''I'm an android police officer from the future, and I have to find Miss Smith, so that she doesn't make a crucial mistake tomorrow afternoon, and end the world as we know it! I MUST get into her apartment!'' ''Well, she usually is at work, this time of day, but right now, she's at the store. Her roommate is out of town, visiting her mother. I have a spare key- do you want me to let you into her apartment, and you can wait for her there?''

And what landlord EVER lets someone into one of their tenants apts/houses to wait for them there. I'd be like "You can wait in your car until she gets back. or come back later." If my landlord ever let someone into my apt without my permission, I would flip my shit.

In Coming to America, when Akem and Semi land in America /New York, they tell the cab driver to take them to Queens; NY has two airports - JFK and LaGuardia (all international flights go through JFK), both airports ARE in Queens.

Give me a break she weighs 100 pounds soak and wet, this man has been a cop for years, surely he know how to put a person down. In "The Devil Wears Prada", Emily tells Andy she gets 15 minutes for lunch. HELLO that is ILLEGAL. You get 1 hour lunch and two 15 minute breaks (NY State law!!) if you work 8 hours (9-5) On "reality shows" why does no one ever use a land line, even though u clearly see they have one. They always talk on the cellphone and never a land line. The only time I see people on a "reality show" talk on a land line is The Real World and America's Next Top Model Edited By: Sassys1745 02/12/2009 10:15 PM. Edited 2 times.

The big thing is to stop the whole war from happening, right? So basically, Sarah is working to make her son not exist. No war, no way for him to be sent back by John Conner. What mum would really do that?
