Re: Gun 'mistakes' in Books, TV, and Movies - feel free to post your own

Let's just face it. Producers and directors are not making scenes for firearms expert review. They are making scenes that the public "expects" to see and be exciting. As an example, nearly every war movie/TV show, with few exceptions, shows every single explosion with a fireball. Well that ain't real, but it's visually exciting. Unless there's a secondary explosion of a flammable object, no fireball. So it's not always an error on the part of the maker, it's what excites and captures the attention of the audience. The guy flying across the room from a pistol shot is far more visually exciting than a drop.
