If you have not seen the movie Cast Away, don't. This movie was unrealistic and boring. Tom Hanks survives a plane crash and has to survive alone on a deserted island. He is mainly the only character in this movie besides his friend he made from a volleyball named Wilson. Without this volleyball, there would be almost no dialogue in the movie. The other characters are simply only shown at the beginning and ending of the movie as time fillers. Also the ending of Cast Away was very disappointing and depressing. I don't even know if I would call it an ending. Sure its not good if all movies have a happy ending or everything is resolved, but this movie's ending was too open. It didn't leave you wanting more, it just left you angry and confused. So if this sounds like the type of movie you would enjoy, go ahead and see it. However, my advice would be not to waste your time or money.

#9 "You're so stupid"
In the script a detail to include would be the flare going off in the back round as the lifeboat is lowering. Also, when rose jumps from the lifeboat back onto the ship. Another important action to include is when Leo looks over the edge to see if Rose made it back onto the ship. When Rose and Leo are running to meet each other and they are pushing people out of their way would be a good detail to have written in the script. Also, the script would say when Leo makes it inside the ship and runs down the stairs towards Rose. They meet at the bottom of the steps and hug which would have been put in the script. They kept the handcuffs on Leo from a previous scene in the movie which was planned. The script would also include when Leo kisses Rose's forehead.
One detail that would be added is when the lifeboat is going down, Leo has his hands folded resting on side of the boat. Another would be when Leo glances numerous times at Kal when they are discussing the arrangement. When the boat is lowering and Rose is frantically looking around her would be another added detail. Also, when Jack nods at Rose as the safety boat is nearing the water. When the man controlling the lifeboat signals with his hands for the passengers to sit down would have been added later. They would have also planned out on set to have the small girl in the life boat waving to her dad who is still on the ship. They would also add the over exaggerated heavy breathing while running to meet each other later on. Also, when Rose begins to cry when her and Jack meet in the middle of the ship could have been another added detail.

#6 Sayonara Shutter Shades

Yes everyone, what you are seeing is true. These hideous things you refer to as "sunglasses" have just been outlawed. There is no point in wearing these when you could wear actual sunglasses that actually do something for you. These do not make you look cool or "gangster" (as some to refer to them as). They are simply ridiculous. Isn't the point of sunglasses to protect your eyes from the sun? These "shades" do not even have lenses. If you plan on wearing these outside expect to get a nice suntan line. With no lenses and a striped frame, you are bound to end up with a nice stripe pattern across your face after a day out in the sun. If you are caught wearing these sunglasses, they will be broken in two immediately and sent to a special factory to be crushed. This confidential factory makes sure that no one can obtain these pieces or reconstruct these "sunglasses." After the authorities destroy your "sunglasses" they can give you up to a 300$ fine (depending on how many pairs you have on you). This item has been pulled off the shelves and discontinued, so save yourself the trouble and buy a real pair of sunglasses.

#5 A mini monster
You might find this little critter purched high in the canopy of the Amazon rain forest. Good luck catching a close look at one of these guys because with eyes this wide, they can see you from a mile away and can fit their tiny bodies into excellent hiding places. The Tikka has sticky palms which allows it to climb up and down trees. They feed on small insects crawling up and down the bark of the tree and wouldn't dare travel outside the familiar region of the canopy. It is born at about three inches long and does not grow any bigger than five inches. Tikkas are very unproportional with a large head and small slender bodies. Although Tikkas are harmless, they are very shy and rarely come out of their protective shells. They are a delicious snack for hungry toucans if they are able to find them under the thick leaves of the canopy. Tikkas are so small that their predators may have a hard time finding them. Their shells provide a camouflage covering to keep them safe and secure. So if you ever happen to see a Tikka in the Amazon, don't be alarmed, their harmless and friendly creatures.
