FALSE! FALSE!
I am now watching actors rather than the characters.
How hard is it to have a bit of water in there?
I saw an actor drinking from a beer bottle in a TV show that was clearly empty. You could see the shiny inside of the bottle, all the way down. Thousands of dollars spent on special effects and whatnot and they can't run a little tap water in the beer bottle.

The problem with that kind of thing is that it distracts you from the scene. It ruins the fantasy.
