“That Was It For Me”: People Share 40 Ridiculous Movie Moments That Ruined It For Them

Fun Fact: USB ports are designed so that the USB logo on the plug faces up. I can plug a drive in right side up first time every time.

Not if you sell your soul. Demonic/supernatural abilities are the only way to get it correct the first time.

Sometimes I try to plug it in correctly on the first time and it still doesn't fit

It would be both, actually.

And the tires.

Watched the Last of Us 3rd episode. Was delighted to see the protagonist try to start a truck after 20 years. The previous owner had disassembled the battery, saved the plates and stocked up on sulphuric acid. Dude put together a new battery in an hour and off they went. Love it when show runners think things through a bit.

Gasoline goes bad surprisingly quickly.

The entire thing is going to be a pile of rust. Island air is humidity with salt in it.

Can you imagine how long a movie would have to be if they had to explain, substantiate everything? Or if they had to scrounge around for parts or people to fix the jeep?

didn't they jump start it?

I had to get a new gas tank after my car sat for 6 years.

They actually kind of address that by having an electric cart crashed outside.

And the brakes seizing.

Manual. Push it down a hill, pop the clutch.

The gaskets.

My first thought was the oil then battery.

Tyres! To be honest I'm not sure I take it at face value it's the genuine article. I've seen some replicas from all sorts of movies (including Jurassic Park) driving around that I know aren't authentic but certainly look it (except the steering wheel is on the other side)

So the salty island air is definitely going to destroy it

Didn't they explain that by having rent controlled apartments?

Gilmore Girls. I LIVED in Connecticut during the time period of the series and my parents weren't wealthy and my kids went to public school (not Chilton or rather Kingswood Oxford) and I worked a full-time job as a medical assistant, and still could barely make rent (and my kids did go to Princeton, not Yale or Harvard, because you can get into Ivy league schools without being wealthy or attending private schools!!) (sorry for the rant, but I hate Gilmore Girls so much

Or Carrie in SatC

Or how I met your mother

I wish I could like that twice

Rent Control

Nice flat? Where Penny lived ? seemed like a cramped apartment on a top floor in a building where they never fixed the elevator.

I always assumed her parents were helping because they seemed to be doing ok with a farm and cost of living in the midwest is less especially when you grow/raise your own food. They wanted at least one kid to really succeed.

*coughICarlycough*

Even more astonishing how much makeup they are wearing when they wake up.

It's like they wash their pillowcases every night

Yes, and in apocalypse movies and shows like The Walking Dead, when they've supposedly been barely surviving for all these years with minimal resources but still find time to do their hair perfectly, trim their eyebrows, and apply perfect makeup.

As the set dresser who has to wash the sheets afterwards? Yes. Yes I have.

And how everyone on American TV sleeps almost fully dressed. I cannot wear anything at all to sleep let alone pyjamas and underwear.

I'm more suprised that they always go to sleep still wearing their bra

And the hair? How on earth can anyone wake up with a perfext harido! Fun superpower to have

Drives me nuts. No one wakes up like that

The pillowcases never have mascara or foundation smudges on them either.

And when they wake up?

How else are they supposed to wake up looking absolutely perfect and beautiful? /Sarcasm

Every single time. The only exception I can think of is Jamie Lee Curtis.

Not only that, but when they wake up - it is all so perfect.

Always:)
