You know when someone has a plan to blow up gas barrels s/he shoots it and it explodes as they had planned.
But when they want to trigger an explosion later they shoot it same as before the flammable liquid comes spilling out and they later flick a match or cigarette but on the ground and sit back and watch it explodes where in real life like when it was tested in mythbusters it wouldnt work it
I know thats just how it works in Hollywood land its just entertainment not to be philisophically thought about or justified.
... but things like this leave me confused to how these situations would pan out in real life...like if I were to shoot a petrol truck right in the tank would it explode or begin to spill.
What other loop holes like this have you noticed?
Should they be remedied so they're hyper realistic like the Bourne Identity (where he does shoot a gas tank and it does explodes so I do trust the filmakers that this would really happen because its set in a realistic worl
