Emilio Estevez in the western Dollar for the Dead. He was in a room upstairs and fired in a circle at the floor so he could shoot a hole to the room below. He had two six shooters but the guns held the same kind of bullets an automatic rifle could hold. As we never once saw him reload during the whole scene.

Here Zombie, Zombie, Zombie...
How every movie "cop" is a expert marksman and could shoot the wings off a fly in a rain storm after being sprayed in the eyes with pepper spray. Truth is most of the cops out there are horrible shots. It's a shame they spend too much time writing tickets and breaking up domestic disputes.
Or the Lethal Weapon Martin Riggs barrel roll and cap all the bad guys with 5 rounds.
Or the Lethal Weapon Jet Li disassemble the gun in one single move crap fest.
Or the bullet myth, about them being able to travel dozens of feet underwater and getting the good guys or bad guys while they're swimming.

This thread needs more visuals of the mentioned violations of physics.
It's honestly not just the violation of bullet physics it's the entire idea of never reloading and good guys never getting hit. Despite often times being outnumbered 10 to 1. Like in the clip of Arnie...he fires from the hip and decimates....trained soldiers are also firing from the hip...but hit nothing which is the only realistic part (firing from the hip is a good way to hit something 30yard away from what you're aiming at)

You can have a big and loud shoot-out in the middle of the night on a street and no one cares or calls the police.

Dude, big-time kudos for working "Commando" into the discussion. What was the final tally again? Arnold: 1,245 kills - Bad guys: 0 kills (1 flesh wound).
This movie delivered some of the best LOL movie lines ever, so bear with me as I go off topic for a sec: D
Example #1:
Cooke: You scared, motherfucker? Well, you should be, because this Green Beret is going to kick your big ass!
Matrix: I eat Green Berets for breakfast. And right now, I'm very hungry!
Cindy: [hiding under a table] I can't believe this macho bullshit...
Example #2:
Matrix: What's wrong?
Cindy: This isn't a plane... i t's a canoe with wings.
Matrix: Well, then, get in and start paddling.

But another gun myth that pisses me off is when bad guys get shot and scream in pain, but the good guys get shot in the arms and legs and go out and kick some guy's regardless of the bullet wounds. That's bullshit!
I watched this the other week there and noticed for the first time when they are in the "canoe" they have trubble getting the engine started. So Arnold walks up to the control panel and says "Fly or die!" and thumps it and it comes to life.
Matrix: "You're a funny man, Sully, I like you. That's why I'm going to kill you last!."
Matrix: "Remember I said I was going to kill you last?."
Sully: "Yeah, Matrix. You did."
Matrix: "I lied!."
That still cracks me up and I still love that line after all these years. :1orglaugh

Shooting a cars gas tank or the fuel spilling out will cause a ka-boom. Vapor explodes, fuel burns.....

Oh, yeah!! That is so BS!!:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
And right after that ...
Cindy: "What did you do with Sully?"
Matrix (in typical laconic Ahnuld fashion): "I let him go."
How did this movie not win awards?
:1orglaughBesides which, speaking of "gun myths," how the heck did Rae Dawn Chong fire a rocket launcher that exploded under the Paddy wagon that Matrix was in and he get out without a scratch!?
