I guess the electronics triple the value of your vehicle when you get in, right? We’re getting sidetracked here, but all of those gadgets in your car is extra funny.

Ever get the feeling that all these time-saving devices aren't saving us any time?

I love that. I want my next screen to make hi-tech noises when displaying lines of text letter by letter :) Oh and the car keys must be in the ignition, because it takes actors less than a second to start the car, strap in and drive off...

http://www.moviecliches.com

some I noticed:
- computer systems always have very fancy interfaces
- passwords can be cracked in 2 tries at a maximum
- whenever there is a car chase there is always either a truck (very often carrying lumber wood or gas) blocking the way or cars start using there horns…
- car keys don’t exist in most movies: people just hop in and start revving up right away
- whenever there is zoomed in on a seemlessly irrelevant object, that object will ALWAYS come back as a pivotal element in the story…

I can get pissed off at inaccuracies too, but it is POSSIBLE that they had a particularly good summer... ;-) And a 50 second countdown in James Bond takes 3 minutes real time… this is poetic licence… nah, Arjan, I’m just teasing you… I can get pissed off at inaccuracies too, but it is POSSIBLE that they had a particularly good summer… ;-)
