Speaking of gross behavior, did everyone else all ready know about this?

I’ve already narrowed down Armand’s killer to two theories.

• “I love the Matt Fraction-inspired title sequences that start and end these episodes.” Matt was the writer, these are David Aja inspired.

Ot acts like one of those retractable/extendable light saber toys from the 80s

“Ancient immortal warlord here, nine centuries’ experience running my own criminal empire. Finally got to watch Shang-Chi at the weekend, and hoo-boy do we have to talk about the logistics of the Ten Rings. 1/”

Of all the things that I found wildly fantastical in the movie (which I loved!) — unrealistic action scenes, an underground fighting ring for superpowered individuals, mystical villages, dragons, Awkwafina learning how to be a Hawk Eye level archer in like 4 days (less?), faceless chicken cats, Ben Kingsley — the…

Ha, that’s amazing! That’s some “Superman is a Dick” level fucking-with-the-mere-mortals.

It will never not be funny to me that Dr. Strange’s most significant relationship was dissolved because of Ben Franklin

Obviously they can’t do a proper Dr Strange movie if they don’t include Stephen’s greatest nemesis: Benjamin Franklin

Yet another one of the people I held to a high standard turns out to be a hypocritical d-bag.

“I will only listen to you on my terms, at my place, at my convenience” really says everything that needs to be said about how much he actually gives a shit.

And thirdly, you must admit that Hannah Gadsby is not funny.

The thing is if CGI gun shots become the standard they will look rough for a while but some CGI expert combined with some really good on set stunt team will figure out the “special sauce” that looks good but keeps everyone safe.  The reason they use prop guns and blanks now is because it’s cheap and it’s what they…

A production still of Samuel L. Jackson in the last Spider-Man movie made the rounds of film Twitter a year or so back because he was holding what was obviously a fake gun painted green so they could CGI in a gun in post, and the reaction was basically, “Ha ha, Marvel’s so lame, they just CGI everything.”

Gunshots often are digital, of course. And, what with digital doubles, one could extend the safety argument to all sorts of driving/motorcycle stunts. But actors probably prefer a real recoil to jerking their arms, and especially in scenes with lots of guns going off, it would probably be hard to believably simulate…

Y’know it’s probably not that difficult to put in CGI gun pops in this day and age, and it’s probably been used before but at this point it should be a default. 

Aside from money, is there a logistical reason why blanks are still used and gun shots aren’t done in post? Because I don’t think they were firing blank lasers in Star Wars and SFX technology has has gotten a lot better since then.
