Stupid movie thing I hate

[BottlesOf]

I hate the following which often happens in movies.

Two people are having a disagreement, maybe one is holding the other prisoner, or one is robbing the other, or one is trying to get the other to do something they don't want to do. Anyway, the one person has a gun and is trying to use it to persuade the other person. The other person resists and refuses to comply, but then, the first person COCKS the gun. Uh-oh, now he must be serious, he cocked the gun. This is now an entirely different situation, and I will immediately back down. Lame.
