Except in "Morons from Outer Space". - Where the aliens suggest on their planet they do not have to haul around clumsy things like typwriters because they have invented this thing called a pen.
Why has become so fashionable for both heroes and villains to fight by throwing each other against walls or through windows - it you want finish someone off and you have not got a gun/sword/knife/etc then find something to hit them with - walls and windows make lousy weapons compared to rocks/iron bars/heavy chunks of wood and so on. Hitting someone with an improvised club is bound to deliver higher kinetic energy than you can obtain by trying to throw a person against a wall.
