Helicopters are an affront to God and in direct contravention to his natural laws. Their natural state is to be cast down into the pits of hell/fiery crater, but until then keep on runnin with the devil.

I'd feel much safer flying in a helicopter than a drone. Helicopters can at least autorotate if the engine fails. Drones just fall out of the sky lol

I grew up playing with Alec Baldwin and I teach my kids about Alec Baldwin safety. If you use Alex Baldwin the way you're supposed to then you won't have any issues. Cars still cause more deaths than Alec Baldwin in most states.

this is disingenuous and you know it, if you're going to bring up deaths from all cars then you need to compare it to deaths from all baldwin brothers

I did fall asleep reading a particularly erotic chapter

She wrote very detailed descriptions of her experiences...

StrangersInTheNight posted:

this doesn't work in your favor when the number should be zero. there's no amount of acceptable losses on movie sets from guns. this is essentially what you're arguing - the risk is so low, it's acceptable losses. gently caress no.

welcome to the thread, where people have been long pointing out that it's not just about the tool being used, but a culture of risk-taking that exists on movie sets that won't ever fully disappear. sometimes it's a gun, sometimes it's a helicopter, the reasons why are pretty much the same, management taking risks to save money. for guns, the easiest and clearest way to fully eliminate this particular risk is just to have no real guns.

a question that still has yet to be answered by the crowd so insistent in real guns on sets: why does it matter to you so much to have real guns on set?

or do you just want to insist that people are over-reacting to your perceived risk assessment? in which case here's some confetti, maybe we are over-reacting, but I'd rather keep people safe than dead. In the guns on sets debate, I'll take the 'over-reacting to save lives' side over the 'eh it's only a handful of deaths!' side, thanks.

I promise I'm not being snarky and genuinely just want to understand the exact parameters of your argument, because if the threshold of safety something has to meet is literally zero deaths in perpetuity then we really ought to reconsider if making live-action movies is worth it at all.

And hey, maybe it's not! Frankly I honestly don't think child actors should be a thing, for one. You can CGI them or write around them.

Vehicles and pyrotechnics and stunts are all things that aren't strictly necessary, either, and certainly don't meet the same safety threshold that firearms do. I mostly just want to know what exactly are we talking about getting rid of.
