My only issue with No COuntry For Old Men. THe dog chasing scene. It just doesn't make sense why Josh Brolin goes through the trouble of drying the 1911. Why in the world would the writers believe a wet gun won't fire???? THere was the tension all the way through the swim, and then he gets out of the water and....WTF? Manufactured tension for idiots. I'll take idiots in horror movies all day. But in this movie it jarringly doesn't make sense.
That scene is not in the book, btw.

But that's just the thing, HE WASN'T EVEN UNDERWATER. You're telling me that there are people out there that think a gun won't work because water drops will somehow magically disallow it to function? That's not a "only gun guys would know that" thing. That's a "scratch your head, am I missing something here?" thing. I can understand people believing a gun can't fire underwater...threoretically,there will be water pressure there. But you're telling me someone out there believes that a gun won't fire because it's wet? It's not a match.Originally Posted by VXR
hehe. sorry for the side thought. It's just such a cool movie otherwise. That one thing made it unwatchable for me. It'd be like Blade Runner having one scene where Harrison Ford tap dances in the rain. It doesn't make sense and it doesn't fit. And you're left wondering why.
