Driving on highway with windows down but no wind noise and no yelling at each other

Using normal speaking voices in a club. The Social Network addressed this and had them yelling when they did the scene in the club with Parker and Zuckerberg.

Every car that is shown with a main character driving sounds like it has a Chevy 454 Big Block V-8 in it when they start it up and drive away. Even the clunker hoopty rides.

Needs to be outlawed. That inside joke has long since run it's course and it ruins the scene anytime I hear it because it's so clownishly absurd.

The latest Hyundai commercial with John Krasinski even has it although I can look at that example as more of an actual joke making fun of it.

And people having a very loud argument at a table in a crowded restaurant and surrounding diners don't even seem to notice.
You're from down South,
And when you open your mouth,
You always seem to put your foot there.

Christopher Nolen also handled this well in The Dark Knight.

Not sure if this has been posted yet because I ain't got time to go through 5 pages, but the lack of hearing damage when firing weapons. There are scenes where characters pop off in a car or an elevator and have no ringing or hearing damage.

I was watching Southland on Netflix last night and the Wilhelm Scream in the above scene felt so over the top/out of place that I get why some productions are now avoiding its use.

That's a pretty good action shot, though.

Ha I loved that show, so maybe I am biased, but the scream actually makes more sense there while bouncing off a roof to your death than it does in most of the clips in the montage a few posts above. It even sounds kind of "latin".

I was genuinely bummed when this show was cancelled. Great cop action/drama. LA was the perfect setting for this show too. About to rewatch on Netflix.

I just discussed this recently with my son while watching Die Hard.

In every driving scene the driver moves the steering wheel back and forth. Who shakes the steering wheel like that to go straight
