Towards the end of the Terminator movie, Sarah Connor ends up hiding in Mexico in order to be away from the nuclear primary detonations of Judgement Day.
What struck me was the gas station that appears in the end of the movie. The gas station is portrayed by an old small establishment without name. In Mexico there are no gas stations like that at all. There is no chance such a view exists because in Mexico only exists one sole gas company, Pemex. All gas stations MUST be Pemex. We don't have like in the United States, where basically different companies exist. People can put gas stations, but they have to be Pemex. It's sort of a forced government franchise.
I don't understand why Hollywood does not reflect the reality of things in Mexico. I don't know how come the United States can ignore the Pemex fact especially after how they hate socialism. Americans don't even know their neighbors, how can we expect to portray them in their movies realistically.
