Number one on the list is:
Running straight ahead of anything approaching. Car coming at you? That’s right just go in a straight line in front of it. Plane strafing? Boat coming at you? Run away boulder? That’s right… Try to get away right in the path of it. It’s a no no to juke to the side apparently.
Two: Any lights other than a house HAVE to have sound when turning on. Usually loud clunks. Not only that, each row comes on individually, in sequence. Two-A: Never turn on the lights when you’re searching a house or building. Walk right by the light switch…
Three: Anyone drinking whiskey/spirits never grimaces gulping down a shot of whatever. Westerns are especially fond of this stupid directing. Whiskey that’d gag a maggot but goes down like the tea that it is.
Four: Never have a car chase in a foreign city without blasting thru a fruit stand or whatever.
Five: Gunshots in a closed room never bother hearing. A single 9mm round in a room will deafen anyone for a bit. Fire a machine gun and you’re deaf for the next 24 hours. Five-A: gunshot wounds rarely hurt and the guy keeps on going. This is especially stupid.
Obviously there’s exceptions but not many. Thoughts?
Absolutely.
Running right in front of danger is a staple.
Why they can't cut to the side remains unknown.
