Actors not sweeping correctly when somebody broke a glass or somebody’s ashes were spilled on the floor or something like that is infuriating hahha.

They’re always having some serious conversation with heavy relationship complications, but whoever has the broom is literally tapping at the mess on the floor because they know that the production crew is going to clean it up for them after the shoot, so they, the ac-tors, don’t have to actually sweep the mess into the dustbin.

I f****** hate that.

    They aren’t poking at the glass without actually sweeping because they are lazy. They are doing multiple takes and saving the crew from having to make a new mess to pretend to sweep up between takes.

    Same as not actually eating their food, they don’t want to overeat while doing a bunch of takes. It still bugs me to watch everyone run off without anyone touching the stack of pancakes!

      Oh I know exactly why they’re sweeping s***** or why they take tiny bites or chew their food so many times, that’s the point of this post.

      Running away before finishing their food, or constantly putting down the sandwich they’re holding to continue dialogue is a great corollary.

      Nah dude, people care about food. Literally everyone cares about food. Nobody is leaving their sandwich that cost the significant amount of $16 in their movie world and took part of a scene to order so that they can pursue their friend’s hare-brained scheme.

      Every single person is asking for it to go box and then defining the details of the scheme or maybe picking up the sandwich and taking it out with them.

      Nobody was struck with such a good idea, regardless of how much money they might make if they survive the impending circumstances that they leave their perfect sandwich on the table and we need to linger on it for four seconds.

      What a s***** unrealistic trope
