Hollywood Blowoff 

A dishonest response given by one party designed to avoid the need --or courage-- to tell the other party that they have no intention of ever re-contacting them. (especially in a case where a telephone number or other contact information has been asked for).

In short, when someone lies their intention to call back or otherwise re-contact someone else.

(By the way, the Hollywood Blowoff can be easily avoided simply by using the honest phrase: "Sorry, I don't give my number out", or "I'd prefer to contact you if I'm interested")
The most famous example of the Hollywood Blowoff is: "Don't call me .. I'll call YOU".

Typical scenario:

AVERAGE ALVIN: May I have your telephone number?
-or- "Can I call you"
-or- "Do you have a card?"
-or- "When will it be ready"
-or- "When will I know the results of the audition?" etc.

SNOTTY AGNES: Don't worry darling, I have your card (when, in fact, Average Al either has no card or never gave it to Agnes).... I'll call you... Honest.
-or- "I/We have your number"
-or- "You'll be hearing from us/me"
-or "I'll/We'll let you know as soon as I/we find out"

AVERAGE ALVIN: Why Agnes, you hideous, loathesome, stinking bitch from hell....You're giving me the Hollywood Blowoff, AREN'T you?! Jeez, I'm SO sorry I came to this book signing and wasted both my time and money on you.. Here, please keep your sorry little book and read it.. That way you'll have a better idea of yourself than I now do, you pitiful, pathetic asshole, you. If you ever, ever walk through MY neighborhood. you'd better look both ways before crossing!

Hollywood Flasher 

A device used by hollywood that makes it appear that shoots are being fired.
When you see an actor and shots are being fired around him and dirt is flying up to show where the shots are missing. The Hollywood Flasher is used to create this effect.

Hollywood Harmonica 

When a man is receiving oral copulation and the person performing the action begins to suck along the side of his penis, very reminiscent of the way one would play the harmonica.
"Damn, Jessica gives one hell of a blowjob! She even teased my balls while giving me a Hollywood Harmonica!"
