Land lines have pretty much disappeared from the modern world yet I still regularly see them in movies. Like last night I saw the 2007 film "Fracture" ,starring Ryan Gosling and Anthony Hopkins (hands down *worst* movie of the year). The high powered and assumably wealthy lawyers in the movie missed important phone calls from each other because they weren't at home to answer their land line, not once did I see a mobile phone! C'mon!! (Thinking about it now, I do remember a mobile phone, which proves my point even further)
So my question is: When will land lines disappear from movies? Writers purposefully defy logic when they make the characters play phone tag with each other and leave messages on ancient answering machines, all so the plot can twist in a certain way.
Imagine the film industry in the near future when time machines are readily available in every household. Something bad happens to one of the characters in a movie and I'll cry out, "Why did he do that!? He knows he could have taken his S60-brand Time Machine back in time and prevented that! C'mon!!"
