Looking back at the TV show The A Team, I love how they never killed the bad guys no matter how many bullets they sprayed. And even with CHIPS, how the cars would launch in the air and flip dramatically. That really hasn't changed with action movies today. I actually find the adds for action movies today to be even more absurd than the stuff I grew up watching. Now everything to me looks like you are playing an X Box.
I also laugh at airplane scenes, when someone is hanging out the door of a jet and manages to hang on. Um no, if a door or window is blown out you get sucked out and die.
