[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My husband always asks “Doesn’t anybody potty?”. He says that during every movie or series. [/quote] I just don’t understand. A movie is like 2 hours long and you want them to stop the action so someone can take a piss? A lot of the things people are complaining about are just boring. No one wants to watch people take off shoes, use the toilet, or say goodbye.[/quote] This is true. It's why phone conversations in movies/television are almost always weird. A real phone conversation is boring AF. Ringing, then identifying yourself, stating the reason for your call, people repeating themselves, then goodbyes from both parties, sometimes multiple goodbyes ("ok see you next week" "yes, looking forward to it" "ok bye" "bye"). I do not want to experience that in life, much less watch it on screen. Which is why phone calls in movies often have no greetings, no identification, no goodbyes -- just the key info and hang up. It might not be realistic but it's much better storytelling.[/quote]
