Things movies have taught us 2.0

[il d00d]

This one was a popular meme way back in the aughts when we didn't have movin' pictures on our computational machines or phones with internets on them. (I am therefore scheduled to receive the original, unmodified version from my mother some time in mid-2014)
But this hoary old chestnut has always been a favorite.  I figure it is due to be resurrected and updated.

Classics:
Honest and hard-working policemen are traditionally gunned down three days before their retirement.

All beds have special L-shaped cover sheets that reach the armpit level on a woman, but only to waist level on the man lying beside her

All grocery shopping bags contain at least one stick of French bread.

Updates:
Not a single computer in the world runs a Windows operating system of any kind. 

If you are underweight and socially awkward your are sexually irresistible to most teenage girls (I'm talking to you Michael Cera, you rakish twig)

Post em up - classics or new pearls of wisdom from Hollywood...

Love these:

All telephone numbers in America have the digits 555.

You're very likely to survive any battle in any war unless you make the mistake of showing someone a picture of your sweetheart back home.

A man will show no pain while taking the most ferocious beating but will wince when a woman tries to clean his wounds.

If a large pane of glass is visible, someone will be thrown through it before long.

The Chief of Police is always black.

When paying for a taxi, don't look at your wallet as you take out a bill - just grab one at random and hand it over. It will always be the exact fare.

Cars that crash will almost always burst into flames

Most laptop computers are powerful enough to override the communication systems of any invading alien civilization.

There are just so many...

The nice Black guy near always gets killed in War/Horror/Survival movies

Everyone now uses Apple computers

CSI Series: A tiny fleck or smudge on a hotel room carpet/trash filled alleyway is magically noticed among all other tiny flecks and smudges and provides a vital clue

The Chief of Police is always black.

Police or a back up squad always appear right after the good guy kills the bad guy(s).

[TiNi]

hair and makeup always look perfect in the morning

[RAT900]

no one farts unless it is a comedy

[zooom]

early -
guns almost always had unlimited bullets or a lack of need for reloading...

a well organized band of mercenary types can always take almost anything over and a single outnumbered force can singularly take em down...

late -
computers are a more powerful way to attack anyone than any kind BOOM weapon...

Magic is more powerful than any force...

motorcycles can defy the laws of physics and traction with ease....

Updates:
Not a single computer in the world runs a Windows operating system of any kind.

[akmnstr]

Leading men ride ducatis (but isn't that just like real life?  I mean if your cool you ride a duc [moto])

[badgalbetty]

all female detectives are a size 2 and gorgeous.

All detective depts have someone in them that was willed Colombo's trench coat.

All olice undercover cars look the same.

Al war movies have the same script. Lots of shouting followed by lots of dying.

No pne has ever picked me for the main character.

[lethe]

ductwork is always clean, roomy and the best choice for sneaking around a building
Oh, also lacking in turning vanes.

[pennyrobber]

50% of all European bad guys have long hair.

Every car parked on the street has shock sensitive alarm.
