Also thought I'd add, I don't care about the gun shit, don't own any or know much about them, so all the little nuances that piss you guys off, makes no difference to me.

I joined this forum only a few weeks ago, jumped right in and then LIFE got in the way! lol

So,  off to catch up on all the new posts since I was away!!

The man is a perfectionist. 

am i Azzie am I ?

Now, the whole gun handling thing. It effing URKES MY ASS sometimes how they do that shit. They think some sound is cool and dub it in. No, do it the way the actual gun would sound dumbass.

Case in point (and my biggest hatred) the movie Runaway with Tom Selleck and Gene "my tongue is longer than yours" Simmons.

The robot that rolled around with a REVOLVER...a SIX SHOOTER...made the sound of a PISTOL being cocked with the slide to load the chamber. What a bunch of SHIT.

@Ghosty- an extension of the handgun thing.  Lots of times you see them drop the clip, slam a new one it, and never cock it the first time before starting to fire!  I'm so with you on gun handling in movies.  And let us not even talk about the issue of infinite bullets (video games even get that correct!!!!!  [mostly] ).

It's not just shotguns either, happens with hand guns as well.  It's not just the re-cocking that drives me nuts too...its when someone is pointing a gun at someone, then into their conversation they chamber a round.  Like...you didn't have a round ready the entire time you had your gun pointed at them?  Or, just the thought that these bad ass dudes pull out their guns, and then have to chamber a round?  They don't just keep a round in the chamber automatically?  They're worried it will go off or something?

In Heat, they actually did this perfectly.  Al Pacino is in the elevator, takes out his gun, pulls the slide back a bit to check and make sure there was a round in it.  That is realistic and brilliant film making in my book.  I know its done for sound effects, and to make things dramatic, but it is one of those things that irritates me.

Anyway...just my nitpicky ramble. 

@Ghosty-  Oh man, recocking guns over and over again....
You get a gun, you cock it.  30 seconds later, bad guy/monster shows up and person says "Time to kick ass" and recocks it.  Why not just stand there recocking the gun(s) until they're empty!  Argh!

(Will be funny to see what Swollen has to say about this post)

Ha!  I was just watching an episode of Supernatural last night where Sam cocks a pump-action shotgun and tosses it to Dean, who then immediately cocks it again. 

But the biggest "rifle cock" (heh) mistake is in Evil Dead (and again in Army of Darkness).  Ash very obviously carries a double barrel shotgun.  Double barrel shotguns are cocked by manually depressing both hammers with your thumbs.  But anytime Ash cocks the rifle off-screen it's accompanied by the "CHK-CHK" sound of a pump-action shotgun.
