Lessons movies teach us

Here's a thread for talking about the wrong and/or stupid lessons movies teach us.

Like right now. High School Musical 2 is on. My siblings put it on, not me.

Lesson 1:

You should give up all your chances at going to a good college and all your scholarships so that you can keep your high school friends.

Lesson 2:

Your high school friends don't care about your future.

Lesson 3:

Everyone who plays high school sports is automatically a good singer and dancer.

Lesson 12: When Police arrive on a scene after a big shoot out, even if you're just a civilian, leaving with your arm wrapped around the one you love will signify to them that you are not bad and they will just run right past you.

Lesson 13: Your partner is corrupt and you should wait for backup to arrive before confronting him about it, otherwise he'll get a gold star and you'll get a hero's burial.

15: When your pets are reanimated due to some sort of magical Indian burial ground, it's ok to become a graverobber and bury your dead kid there...

16: When your dead son comes back from the grave and becomes a mass murderer, it's ok to kill him and repeat the process with the loved one he just killed.

17: If you're raised in a tower with no doors and only one window, it's ok to hit an intruder with a cast-iron frying pan.

18: If you are taught to sing by a voice that has no source, it's ok to defy it's demand for obedience and accept the proposal of a man you haven't seen in over a decade.

20: Attempting to have any sort of coitus in a creepy forest is a guaranteed way to die.

21: Taking a class assignment and actually doing what the assignment says to will not only affect the changes you've been told to make, but also end up killing you.

22: It's ok to call the bad guy names even though s/he is more than likely right behind you.

23: Not knowing your best friend's history is a surefire way to realize that he is most likely a sociopath.

24: An apple laptop (circa 1993-1994) is capable of interfacing with an advanced alien civilization's space ship computers.... And infect them with a shield-nullifying computer virus. This same laptop has less computing power than one of today's lowest-end netbooks.

25: The most annoying character that is completely unworthy of the oxygen they are stealing from the rest of us, is usually the only one to survive because they are the ones curled up in a fetal position behind the brave characters who inadvertently shield the weakling(s) from enemy fire with their frigging bodies.

26: Mentioning impending retirement is signing your own death warrant, in blood. (Obligatory)

27: A male main character will spend half the movie trying to woo his female counterpart (who is totally unworthy of his attention), only to be unceremoniously dumped. The embittered protagonist will continue to spurn advances by a secondary female character that is completely and thoroughly enamored with him, and will follow him to the gates of hell and back. The male will only realize what he had, after she is killed, and he is left with nothing. Idiot.

28: One Asian protagonist will be able to take on no less than an entire army of nameless Asian henchmen antagonists in hand-to-hand combat.... And WIN.

29: When one hears a completely creepy noise that poses a 100% chance of being a mass murderer, human-prey bent alien, supernatural entity of death, etc, then it REQUIRES investigation alone and unarmed.

30: Once encountering/p1ssing off the aforementioned killing machine, you become unable to make logical decisions such as banding together in a defensible position with weapons until help arrives.

31: Despite being able to solve 99% of your problems in a film with a single shot, no gun or ammunition will ever be present. If there ARE, your aim will degrade by 115% and increase exponentially the more ammunition you have.

Lesson 46: The person you're currently dating is cheating. And the one person you never thought you'd have something in common with is the only one for you.

Lesson 47: Love is fickle if the man in the relationship isn't constantly dogged by the woman. Otherwise it's meaningful.
