Shows/Films ruined by cruddy gunfights

Sadly, I don't think this is the case: I think it's just shoddy directing, which goes part and parcel with The Walking Dead. Rewatching the scene again, it's not quite as awful as I thought at the time and there appears to be some blank-adapted guns and/or okay-ish post-production work- but the general realism is akin to an episode of The A-Team. If B.A. had appeared riding the tiger, I wouldn't have been surprised.

Anyway, judge for yourself: there are worse gunfights out there for sure, but given this was built up throughout a really boring season, the payoff was disappointingly silly. 'Action' begins around 1:40

I don't watch the show, but is Negan supposed to be a huge Escape from New York fan or was his MAC-10 just a coincidence?

I think it was a nice little homage. Better than him wearing Snake's vest I guess...

Ugh.

It's funny as hell that all the people are making fun of the MAC 10 scope and this tells us that they have never seen Escape from New York

Escape from New York gets a pass.

How about movies ruined by no gunfight at the end?
