How suppressors/silencers work on guns
That armor is pointless and you can just use your sword to slice through mail and stab people through their helmet.
That when the heart flatlines you can shock it back to life
Solving a complex paradox just like that
Guns with unlimited bullets.
If you jump all in with a new direction/adventure with little to no foresight or preparation, it will all work out in the end
losers getting laid all the time.
Firearms and bullets.
When my mother and I watched old western movies in the past, she counted the bullets high and was excited when they only had two bullets left in the revolver.
Nowadays, she is much older and very confused about the number of bullets in firearms, and has solemnly proclaimed that acton films are no longer fun to watch.
People always speak in whole sentences
Spy movies with gigantic fight scenes and shootouts in major metropolitan cities and the spy just gets off scot free. Sorry but if there was a huge shoot out in downtown Tokyo or Seoul and dozens of people were injured/dead, it would be international news for weeks and that spy would be imprisoned for life
People don’t talk over one another in movies as much as they do in real life.
Guns make metal sounds when they hit cars. That was true in the 1960s. Cars are made out of fiberglass and plastic now. Bullets hitting cars now sounds more like plastic snapping and legos falling on the floor.
It’s not so easy to break a neck, they’re not made of butter.
Having full on 1 minute long eye-to-eye coversations…while driving!
That most deaths are easy and quick, as if you’re gunning down npcs in an fps. Truth is humans are resilient and struggle. The guys with gut or chest shots would scream, probably for their moms. Probably why when violence is actually depicted (like Saving Private Ryan) people get uncomfortable.
If someone coughs, they’re deathly ill.
