I vote for realistic ballistics and behavior of those injured. Nothing seems more 'fakey' to me than seeing a big guy lifted up OFF THE GROUND from a gunshot.

Also: people not wearing muffs would probably go deaf and would have to yell to talk to each other. (Made me angry on the show '24' recently... totally unrealistic)
I'd like to see more movie gunfights like those in Way of the Gun; realistic, but still very exciting
