No one ever actually ends a conversation on the phone, someone just hangs up

When someone has to go out for a drink or takes a shot before spilling their hearts to someone it takes like 6 seconds for the alcohol to kick in

Cell phones and all the unnecessary clicks, noises and beeps they make.

How rain symbolizes change in a movie. Come up with something else already.

Hangovers are completely unrealistic. Some movie scenes include an obscene amount of alcohol enough that the character would've easily blacked out yet when they wake up all they say is some moan, go get coffee and are fine.

A realistic hangover would include not leaving the bed all day or turning on the lights, binge watching Netflix and ordering delivery for all 3 meals.

No one ever seems to have the lights on when they are home during the day.

When they make potheads out to be these complete fricking lunatics. Taco, Seth Rogen and Rafi from the League are my prime example of this shite, I hate them so fricking much.

When people crack open a beer they take 1 sip then are either distracted enough to leave the room or are completely done with the beverage. I've never witnessed a scene where someone orders a beer, then finishes the drink in that same scene. bullshite.

Rapid fire, Tarantino-level conversing in movie references by disparate characters that have no backstory to establish how they share a common fund of esoteric knowledge. This was rampant in Season 2 of Billions, and rather than being witty and engaging, it took me out of the show. It was just fake dialogue.

Super-hot, super-thin chicks eating like pigs because it's cute. Those hotties haven't tasted a carb in years.

I hate how a character will take 2 drinks of a beer or other alcohol and 2 minutes later they're drunk.

110lb chicks abusing men (badass men) in fights. It's so comical. If I have to explain to you how comical it is, then you're too ignorant to engage with.

Well if we're taking super hero movies (like Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow) then it's one of things you kinda have to suspend your belief for.

Not just the fake coffee/drink sipping but the blantantly obvious holding of the empty cup while walking or talking with their hands. Compounded even moreso when it's the 4 drink holder. I mean, come on.

In Pulp Fiction when Jules is sitting across table from Tim Roth character giving him his enlightenment speech and says "...and Mr. 9mm here is to protect my arse...", the diameter of the barrel shows a .45.
Come on dude, your a badass hit man and you don't even know the caliber of your pistol.

This might be a winner.

And then they turn to their companion after tapping the gauge and say..." yep, she's out."

Is there an epidemic of gas gauges malfunctioning??

I also like how when people enter a strange dark mysterious or new house at night, they walk in and search for and find a candle and light it to find the light switch...if you can find a candle in the dark why can't you run your arm along the wall to flip a light switch?

Bad guys who can't aim whatsoever or weak characters/normal people without superpowers are somehow able to turn into a one man army and can defeat multiple enemies.
