 Artistic License – Gun Safety: Merle’s rampage with the Gatling gun, cool as it looks, is absolutely ridiculous when you realize he’s holding the tip of the gun from its barrel. note  You know, the part of the gun that gets really hot when its being fired?

 Gatling Good: After killing Carmichael, Merle hears several of Carmichael’s mooks coming to investigate the gunshots. At which point he grabs a loaded Gatling gun randomly mounted on a wall (Why? Rule of Cool, that’s why.) and mows down half a dozen incoming mooks with it.

 Cool Old Guy: Merle, being played by Eric Roberts in his fifties but still capable of kicking ass, certainly counts.

 Falling-in-Love Montage: Between Merle and Jacky, culminating with the two of them making out in Merle’s suite, him undressing her before removing his shirt. To the tune of Keane Simmons’ Brilliant Blue.
