A bit O/T but some nonverbal:

Calling their ex (or someone they love but can't be with for some unknown goddamn reason) and hanging up without saying anything.

Or Right before risking their life some exchange like-
Chick: "John...
John: ".......I know...

Movies where there is a scene in which something extraordinary happens;(ie. Transporter 2, hero drives car from rooftop to rooftop)then they pan to the drunk homeless guy who is watching this. As the car scene ends, close up of drunk homeless guy looking at his bottle of whiskey.

I have seen this in at least 10 movies.

Sure, I might be getting leveled here, but, like, there's good a reason why they always use 555.

What I hate is when someone is talking on the phone but you can only hear their end, so they keep echoing what the other person is saying in question form.

Agreed.

The other common ending to this scenario is the hero yelling "Hey!" while simultaneously throwing the car keys to the homeless guy. The homeless guy looks up just in time to catch the keys and appear bewildered by what just happened.

i'm fairly certain you can make up a lot of fake numbers that aren't so obviously fake. for example, the phone numbers in the wire all have the 410 (baltimore) area code and aren't 555- xxxx variations.

the phone number thing is a pet peeve of mine. when they make up an adress in the movies it isn't always 555 Fake St. They come up with something believable.
