==Silly Movie things==

What I cannot for the life of me understand is that in this day and age in movies:

[[File:Plane-landing.jpeg]]
* the sound of the wheels touching the tarmac of an airplane landing is instant. Sound travels slower than light. (same goes for lightning strikes)

[[File:Car-on-dirt-road.jpeg]]
* tyres make squealing sounds on a dirt road. There is not enough friction to make the rubber sound like that.

[[File:Explosions-in-space.jpeg]]
* space ship engines and explosions observed from outer space make sound. They do not because sound does not travel well in a vacuum.

[[File:Monitor-text-beeps.jpeg]]
* text on a computer screen makes noise when it is printed. It does not.

[[File:Satellite-in-orbit.jpeg]]
* when satellites are shown in an orbit around the earth the sound of 1950's Telex RTTY is heard. Or Morse code. Or both!

[[File:Knife-stabbing.jpeg]]
* when someone is stabbed with a knife it makes a noise as if cutting through plated steel. A knife through meat is very silent. Try it.

[[File:Bomb-countdown.jpeg]]
* countdown timers are always too slow. Do you own counting and you can sometimes find movie-seconds that last 10x as long.

[[File:Camera-on-a-ship.jpeg]]
* movies shot on a boat often have the camera moving slowly clockwise and counterclockwise as if the boat is bobbing. I'm not even gonna explain this.

[[File:Binoculars.jpg]]
* the view through binoculars is like a figure-8 on it's side. This is impossible, it's round!

[[File:Explosion.jpeg]]
* they tap the camera when there's an earthquake or an explosion, but no-one in the picture moves.

[[File:Space-helmet-lights.jpg]]
* space helmets with lights on the inside. Why would blinding yourself with light up-close be practical?

[[File:Silly-image-enhancement.jpg]]
* image enhancement absurdity.

[[File:Rifle-magazine.jpg]]
* semi-automatic machine gun cartridge capacity absurdity (common cartridges only hold 30 rounds)
