Discussion Main / RecklessGunUsage

I removed the following example

• In Zombieland, Bill Murray runs out to scare an armed character while dressed as a zombie. This is a mind-blowing violation of common sense. You do not jump out and startle someone in a hostile environment while they are wielding a gun. Getting shot is not funny.
  • Although, at the time, he was high as balls, so he may not have had much common sense at the time.

This is not a character being reckless with a gun. This is a character being reckless around another character with a gun. The character with the gun saw a threat, aimed, and hit his target. It may have been a tragic accident but his gun usage was appropriate to the situation.

On the note of quotes, I've been watching Yuriofwind and thought of this.

"You, being a smart gun owner, quote-on-quote, shoot a Game Boy cartridge, or the Game Boy itself, so far I'm with you. How did you shoot yourself in the eye, though?"

Not sure if it's better or worse, but I snagged it here. Near 14:20. Please note that he's being sarcastic when he says the character is a smart gun owner, that isn't the case, otherwise, he probably wouldn't be shooting at a Game Boy.

We need to better define what the difference between this, artisitc lisnce: gun safety, and I just shot marvin in the face, or combine all three. Their is just to much overlap right now.

Shouldn't the San Andreas one be put into "juggling loaded guns" instead of this one. It was played for laughs. That scene was followed by the arnie expy shooting up the radio station, cutting away, an announcment they are facing technical difficulties.

Is the Max Payne cover really count? The cover foreshadowing their relationship. It shows that they have some romantic feeling for each other(by embracing each other) but didn't quite trust each other( by pointing their gun at each other).
