I also love how the folly editor always has to insert the sound of a hammer being cocked every time a pistol is drawn, even if it's a hammerless gun like a Glock or a Walther P99. More often than not, even when the gun is a model that has a hammer, you can tell that it hasn't actually been cocked. I was just watching a TV show where a bad guy pulls a Taurus PT92 on another character, and you hear the hammer get cocked into SA as he draws it, but you can clearly tell that the gun is still in DA mode.

I guess it's because theoretically, the bad guys are supposed to have unlimited ammo, too (unless, for the sake of plot convenience, they happen to run out just when the hero needs to shoot them). Last edited by MT2008; 10-19-2009 at 03:46 PM.

In a lot of movies, we rarely seen the good guys carry extra mags. Sometimes we see maybe one or two mag reloads and the scenes they are walking into are literal war zones. Like in Punisher War zone, we see the actor Ray Stevenson had some training, in the behind the scenes, he was drilled by US Marines, but in character, he didn't carry enough mags for his M4 to last the entire battle. He had to bust out his extra handguns to shoot around. I mean who carries 4 sidearms into battle with his primary? He had his custom M4, 2 full auto Beretta 92s, a USP compact and then a customized S&W 500. He could of had room for several more M4 mags in place of those extra handguns.
Some of the only movies were we see the character carry a descent amount of extra magazines for anything was in Heat where everyone carried what I can see more than 6 extra mags. In Terminator Salvation, Christian Bale as John Connor carried so many extra mags, he had some on his arms and extra grenades for his M203. Now that is preparing for war with the machines.

A few years back, one Friday or Saturday night I was cycling through the cable channels when I came upon one of those cheap, made for video movies. It was a group of women in shorts, and t-shirts being chased by some guys for whatever they took from the villains out in some wilderness. One of the women makes a comment that the chief bad guy must surly be out of ammo. They cut to the guy with a Beretta, or Taurus as he unzips his jacket to reveal that he is wearing a vest just covered in spare magazines. I turned the movie off after that, as I felt that I had just seen the best scene in the movie!

We also rarely seen in movies and TV shows anyone reloading and when we do see them reloading, the director made it look as dramatic as possible.

The handgun grips are the worst!
I usually watch like military/war movies or cop movies. It just fucking irks me to see these "soldiers" or "cops" that are supposed to go throught shit loads of training do not use any trigger discipline and use tea cup (cup and saucer) grips, thumb behind the slide grips (pussy grip), wrist brace grips, or the grip that Ziva uses in NCIS (Her grip is just plain fucking retarded). How can these actors/actresses convince who they are trying to be with all this bullshit?

I was watching Breaking News today by Johnny Too and was reminded of one. Bad guy shoots into police car door with an AK-47...Bullet holes everywhere, and the cop on the other side is fine and dandy ready to shoot back at the bad guy in the open street...ohhh yeah...and nobody has a bullet holes in them. Unless cop cars are armored and bad guys have invisible forcefields on them...pretty lame. Good movie otherwise.

Whats with movies where people hold a gun back then push it forward while shooting, like there trying to sling the bullets? Its a common thing with snubbies.
