Seriously? Seriously??
In what context does it affect the story? The characters? The setting? Not to mention, you can't see anything, so you're guessing based on it possibly sounding like something you've only heard in other TV/movies.
This is a perfect example of where GAF falls in love with its own bullshit to a borderline narcissistic degree. Tell me, what do you think the average viewer's reaction would be to someone saying:
"Hey, wasn't it such a total oversight and super confusing that after Andrea shot herself it sounded like a shell casing hit the ground, when clearly she used Rick's revolver which wouldn't expel a casing?!"
It is laughably absurd.
Holy shit, calm down, guy.
Did I
say it affected the overall sstory? I was simply stating, from a technical/craft point of view, the sound cue was confusing for that sequence of events. Sound is an integral part to our understanding of what's being presented.
Please also don't assume that I don't know what a shell falling to the ground/pavement sounds like in real life.
To use your own example of the "average viewer's reaction": as I stated before,
several people in the room were confused by the way that scene was edited. Distinct "wait a second" looks were exchanged when that sound effect was used.
In the meantime: chill the fuck out. We're making criticisms of a show that has been criticized outside of GAF for part of this season. This isn't a GAF thing, so stop trying to dismiss everyone's criticism under the flimsy "LOL GAF" defense.
