SidneyIsTheKiller posted: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. I think you're missing one very important point here: Giving up actually-firing guns on sets is a vanishingly minor concession. Even in the classic action movies of the 80s and 90s, when you had guns firing; 95% of what you were seeing and hearing was added in post anyways. Everyone brings up the Heat gunfight and how they used the actual audio from the day of shooting, but that was an extreme outlier, as films virtually never use the audio from on-set gunfire. Think of it this way: Imagine there was one particular type of fake blood that turned out to kill a couple of people over a few decades due to a super-rare allergic reaction. It would be insane to keep using it in films, even if the risk of death was very low and there were a lot of safety procedures around using that type of fake blood on set. Arguing that we should ban that particular fake blood because it is not worth dying over isn't the same as saying that any risk at all involved in making live-action movies isn't worth doing. It's not even saying that we can't show blood in movies anymore. It's saying that this one very particular thing isn't worth using when depicting blood on screen. And if someone was throwing a fit about trying to ban that type of fake blood because "all CGI blood loving sucks", it would easy to see how ridiculous their argument is when compared to the risk of people dying.

Baldwin is just a simple man that misunderstood when he overheard some of the staff talking about doing a shoot that day.

If they're going with the old "the gun just went off" bullshit defense he really must have hosed up. It's a cowboy gun, not a Taurus with a complex "shake gun to make bang" trigger mechanism.

If it was a double action revolver like I imagine they’d have in an old timey movie it’s not that hard to accidentally fire it if you’re an idiot, I mean an Alec Baldwin.

Can we get a TFR expert in here or something. Are guns firing themselves really a thing that happens or is he just in deep denial?

I am in no way, shape or form an expert, but old time western guns could absolutely go off if they were jostled hard enough. It was common to carry some of them hammer down on an empty chamber for just that reason. Again, I don't pretend to know much about revolvers, but is it inconceivable to imagine a scenario where he quickly drew the revolver, whipped the gun around to point it at the camera and the sudden stop made it go off? Perhaps the hammer was cocked already and the movement made it drop (due to malfunction)? Also, I seem to recall that the earlier misfires involving his body double also were reported to be that the gun went off by itself...

Even if you don’t pull the trigger, there’s culpability in continuing to use a gun on set that has repeatedly misfired.

You’d need someone familiar with that particular kind of replica SAA. I’m pretty sure they don’t replicate all the fun safety flaws the original had.

There are some cases, in a handful of cheap modern pistols and antique revolvers. Modern revolvers and reproductions of antiques absolutely do not fire themselves and Alex is 1,000% in denial.

He was doing a scab shoot after the camera crew had walked out in protest over, among other things, the previous misfire incidents. At that point I really don't think anyone can reasonably claim they didn't know there was something wrong.
