No one actually ends a phone call by saying "goodbye" or something. Both characters magically know that the phone conversation is over. Random example I am making up:

Person1: Yeah, I saw it on the news, man.

Person2: Did you see when the monster destroyed the civic center?!

Person1: Yeah, they wouldn't stop repeating it!

Person2: It was crazy!

Person1: Yeah...

*both hang up*
Or when hey say that they'll make plans for something and everyone magically knows what's going on somehow?

Person 1: This is super important person I just met and don't have any contact information for.

Person 2: I know it is, we should regroup later at a specific time and location and do something about this.

Person 1: I agree.

*Both people leave. Have no way of contacting each other. Never specified time and place*

*Both show up at non-specified time and place*
Yeah, I thought about mentioning that once as well. I know why both those things are done and other aspects like it. It makes the movie flow better, but I personally think it comes across as weird.

One kind of like what we're talking about is when two or more people want to say something privately in front of a person or a group, so they'll simply turn around and start talking at their normal volume. The other person/people would totally be able to hear them. Again, doing this makes a movie flow better and I get it, but stuff like that still makes me chuckle a bit.
