Dead Celebrities aren't much fun

You know, if he weren't so pro-gun control maybe he'd learn some firearms safety.

I can't fathoms why actual bullets were even around to be loaded into the pistol. It is like putting a real stiletto besides a trick stiletto and expecting for someone not to get stabbed onset.

And if he had wheels he'd be a bicycle. It's pathologically impossible for Baldwin not to be an asshole

Presumably for shots where the gun has to appear to be loaded with real bullets and not obviously fake bullets.

Incidents like that have happened before. I remember reading about, I think it was a stage production of Hamlet or Macbeth or something, and the actor accidentally stabbed his co-star because somebody gave him a real knife instead of the trick knife

[RAPEMAN]

As much as I hate Baldwin this seems like a simple work place accident. Mind you Baldwin has shown his idiocy to the planet. At least he'll never act again.

[Kugelfisch]

No, RAPEMAN is entirely correct. Live bullets have no place on a movie shoot you point guns at people in and in any case a quick check could have prevented the accident.
What would you ever use live rounds for? Blanks eject a case and it's not like you'd ever see a projectile on film anyway.
Civil court will fuck his shit seven days from Sunday.

Not really. First and foremost he pointed a gun at person, without checking it first to see if it was loaded, and pulled the fucking trigger. Then, on top of this, he was producer on this film so it was at least partly his responsibility to check the guns personally, to make sure everything was safe, before they shot the scene. He fired the fucking firearms safety officer, whose job it was to make sure things like this didn't happen. Not to mention that they'd had three accidental discharges that day already. But Baldwin was more concerned with muh covid and making sure that he didn't get germs, than he was with the gun safety.

In addition, Baldwin has worked on how many films, where he's had to handle a gun before?

This wasn't just an accident, Baldwin was grossly negligent. He could be charged with manslaughter and, if he were one of the little people, he probably would be.

It's a cowboy movie. Gun was a revolver

How is that a justification? Latest info is that it was actual live ammo that should be easy to identify. The check should've happened either way before every take.

Just don't show the drum/wheel dead on front or use CGI for the second necessary. Or just don't give a fuck if some autist stops at some frame where you see it's blanks

You point a gun at someone! What is more important? That you don't fucking shoot them or that your movie looks realistic?

[Guest]

How is that a justification?

It's not. I'm just trying to provide some reasoning as to why they'd have real fucking bullets on a movie set.

[Moe Bitches]

But again, even if they weren't real and were instead blanks, it'll still be fatal because of the air pressure.

I wonder when Baldwin's going to resume shooting

Hell, just press some bullets without powder or primer.

The film or his temple?
