How often have you ever seen realistic munitions in a TV show or movie?  Ever?

My favorite is how Negan is the first out of the truck and just walks into enemy territory. I mean, how many times could they have just shot him and be done with it?  :D

Yeah, and how Negan decides to fight Rick 1-on-1.  You'd think Negan would have a half-dozen thugs with him, but no -- he fights him by himself.  Or that Negan would waste so much of his time waiting for Rick in the house when it wasn't even a sure thing that Rick would return to the house.

I think the first movie i remember was 'Heat'. Al Pacino was the cop and Robert de niro the crook. There was a scene after a bank robbery and Pacino is exchanging gunfire with the robbers on the street amongst traffic. the semi autos shot like semi-autos but more importantly the cars weren't exploding left and right...another hollywood thing about cars getting shot. After that it got more common but still rare, but generally most war movies after that got it. saving private Ryan, Band of Brothers...etc.

Some TV shows get the gunplay correctly.  Micheal Mann has a good reputation for getting it right.

That gunfight in Heat is one of the best ever.

I also don't understand how someone, anyone, hasn't taken out Negan with a shot to the head yet...not sure if I will continue watching in February.

Well since Rick and everybody ends up in the sewer....quite literally I think at this point all that needs to happen is Negan's people Flush their toilets ....every toilet....1.....2.....3.......! :hide:

^lol. And that's another thing. Wouldn't someone notice all of the large, convenient sewer openings around and think, "hmm, maybe they went down there"?
