Back quivers on archers. While potentially possible, highly unlikely a it was far too inefficient and a major disadvantage.

Same goes for back sheath blades too.

Most bullets are lead or copper coated lead, neither a ferrous metals so do not create sparks.

My wife couldn't find her car key the other day, we searched all over the house and couldn't find it. It turned out she'd left it in the car, on the front seat, with the doors unlocked. It had been there for 3 days.

So it's not entirely a movie myth.

Everything needs a blinking red light to prove its working.

Any part of a building can be accessed via air conditioning vents.

Hollywood parking (you can always just pull up outside the building you need)

Extended underwater fight scenes.

Being able to see clearly underwater.

If breakfast has been made nobody will ever eat it.

If you get fired from a job you walk out the building with that one stationery box with a framed picture, sports trophy and potted plant - regardless of the job or how long you have been there.

Shooting an electronic door control panel will either ooen/close or lock the door depending on plot.

A protagonist will always get shot in the love handle area and will carry on until someone points out they have been shot.

Everyone keeps spare car keys under the sun visor.

An old American muscle car will beat a modern tuned supercar, even round corners.

If there is a helicopter, its job is to explode.

In action films there’s a shootout but no wandering bystander is shot. Or during a high speed car chase the mum dropping off her kids at school, aren’t killed by some hero cop chasing a drug dealer.
