Things You Wouldn't Know Without Movies


  • It is always possible to park directly outside any building you are visiting.
  • A detective can only solve a case once he has been suspended from duty.
  • If you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone you bump into will know all the steps.
  • Most laptop computers are powerful enough to override the communication systems of any invading alien civilization.
  • It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts - your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their predecessors.
  • When a person is knocked unconscious by a blow to the head, they will never suffer a concussion or brain damage.
  • No one involved in a car chase, hijacking, explosion, volcanic eruption or alien invasion will ever go into shock.
  • Police Departments give their officers personality tests to make sure they are deliberately assigned a partner who is their total opposite.
  • When they are alone, all foreigners prefer to speak English to each other.
  • You can always find a chainsaw when you need one.
  • Any lock can be picked by a credit card or a paper clip in seconds, unless it''''s the door to a burning building with a child trapped inside.
  • An electric fence, powerful enough to kill a dinosaur will cause no lasting damage to an eight-year-old child.
  • Television news bulletins usually contain a story that affects you personally at that precise moment you turn the television on.

But wait, there's more...

  • All beds have special L-shaped sheets that reach the armpit level of a woman, but only the waist level of the man lying beside her.
  • At least one of a pair of identical twins is born evil.
  • All grocery bags contain at least one stick of French bread.
  • Rather than wasting bullets, megalomaniacs prefer to kill their arch enemies using complicated machinery involving fuses, pulley systems, deadly gasses, lasers, and man-eating sharks, which will allow their captives at least a half-hour to escape.
  • 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.
  • If staying in a haunted house, women should investigate any strange noises in their most revealing underwear.
  • Even when driving down a perfectly straight road, it is necessary to turn the steering wheel vigorously from left to right every few moments.
  • All bombs are fitted with electronic timing devices with large red readouts so you know exactly when they're going to go off, but luckily you'll always blindly choose to cut the right wire.

I always laugh about this one:

If you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone you bump into will know all the steps.

We just watched The Fog and I was making fun of it because the girl was investigating noises in her underwear including going outside where she then started hearing her name! Um, I don't think so!

It's scary how accurate most of those are!

The french bread one instantly flashed about 30 scenes from movie and tv shows into my head, each one of somebody walking down the street with a grocery bag and an end of a loaf of french bread stickin' out.

I like the French Bread one too . . . its sooo true.

After a few years of eating lunch while my wife watchs "Bold and the Beautiful" here are a few things I've noticed about life in a soap opera.


Like, how if you have a child when you are 30, by the time you are 35, the kid will be 27.

And, how you can be having a conversation with someone while a family member is getting on a plane 3,000 miles away. When they walk in the door, you will still be standing in the same spot, having the same conversation.

And, how just as you are getting to the important, secret part of that conversation, someone will just happen to be walking past the cracked open door to listen in just at the right time to hear what they need to hear to make your life miserable.

And, never say something like "Things are perfect now and couldn't be better!"

And, how when you have something really important to say, you do it like this: "You want to know? You really want to know? I'll tell you why! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Really, I'll tell you! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Are you ready? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I'm going to tell you now . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Are you sure you can handle this? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (30 second stare and fade to black).

And how you never mention anything about God, worship or go to church until something bad happens. Then, in downtown L.A. you go to a little church that has 10 pews and 15,000 candles so God to come fix the mess you chose to make.

And like how if you have sex tonight, you will be able to tell tomorrow that you are pregnant.

And like how if you get tired of being you, there is no worry, someone else can come in and take over being you from now on and your family will not even notice.

And finally, how death is really just a minor setback . . . you can come back to life at any time . . . even 3 or 4 times if necessary.

No matter what was damaged, the car will always explode.

The bad guys have terrible aim, no matter how many of them there are, but the good guys have perfect aim.

Useless talents always have a purpose. (This is also true for any Michael Crichton book.) For example, if Jane's hobby is underwater cave diving, the group will later be in a predicament where only someone who knows underwater cave diving will be able to save them.

Anyone with a phobia will later have to face their fear to save the day.

The gun will always fall just out of reach so the good guy and the bad guy will have to fight to get to it.
