This would be correct before the introduction of the horse by the Spaniards.

And the correct pronunciation for buffalo/bison is “Tatanka”.

Tatanka is obviously a Wrestler and not some bison with some Apache on it.
And Spaniards? This some kind of English dog?

When people enter a house / apartment they never seen to close the front door.
Who does that?

Also almost everybody seem to live in big houses or big apartments no matter what they do for a living. Seeing a regular NYC cop in a huge flat with expensive furniture.

when 2 cops needs to break down a door they just kick it down.
When SWAT needs to enter they always use a ram rod or what they are called.

Nobody ever say good bye when ending a phone call.

You say good bye when ending a phone call?!

Also CPR and AED use. You never hear ribs cracking during CPR and people get CPR and just pop right back up and alive like nothing.

I’ve done a ton of CPR on people and Hollywood CPR is an absolute joke

When a driver turns his head away from the road for a good few seconds just to chit chat.

When the good guys always get head shots.

When they diffuse a fight using "don't do this, this isn't you" or something like that.

When computers are easy to break into and hackers guess the password within 3 tries.

 

[Mr Holmes]

Crimson Tide, was a pretty silly portrayal of whats its like in the Navy. I remember one of the early scenes where the officer screams in one of the guy's face and orders him to do pushups.

 

[My Spot]

Supergenius Lex Luthor keeps calling his creation "Nukular Man" in Superman 4.

George W Bush approves.

 

[My Spot]

i was an extra in The Last Castle and played a military cop. When i went into the costume room i was shocked at what they were doing with the uniforms. they had guys in their 50's with lieutenant bars and kids barely 20 as full bird colonels. One guy was even given a hat with the captain bars sideways. he became known as captain equals.

i basically became the uniform supervisor for extras making sure everyone looked somewhat authentic

Did you get to meet James Gandolfini?
