The ones that really get me are the way they show execs at companies. The “look, this character is so bad ass at being an exec!”. They always come off as so unrealistic and cringy.
I’ve swam in that ocean, and that’s not how that shit works. Engineering too. In reality, it’s always a team of engineers that get something done… It is NEVER some rich smart guy inventing stuff on his or her own in their super fancy workshop.
And subordinates rarely balk at obeying illegal orders - and if they do they fold when there’s a threat of firing or a vague offer of compensation, as if either would instantly persuade a person to risk prison.

yeah but a script that sucks the balls of an executive is far more likely to be greenlit.
