In RotLA, at the beginning of the film, Indy snaps his whip across the wrist of a double-crossing guide (forget his name, and don't really care).
In the film you hear a gunshot sound effect, but can clearly tell that there's no recoil or smoking barrel when the pistol hits the ground. In the comic book, the gun is drawn as if it were firing at the instant it hits, with flame and smoke coming out.
So did the film mean for the gun to have discharged, or was the audible "boom!" just a sound effect designed to indicate a dramatic action? Personally, I like the latter.
