The Magic Bullet?

Post by ajaxman »

When Luther pulls the trigger and Swan moves out of the way, a Warrior is standing behind right where swan was standing before he moved. I always wondered how that Warrior (I'm thinking it was Vermin) wasn't hit. Or for that matter how any of them weren't hit by the bullet. He wasn't that far away and if he pulled the gun or pushed the gun when he squeezed the trigger it still could have hit one of the others. Maybe they finally got lucky. I don't know. Give me your thoughts.

The people behind Swan were Mercy and Rembrandt - Vermin was on the far right of the group, well away from the path of the bullet.

It's explained away by the fact that all of them can be seen dodging after Luther takes the knife to the arm. Hence, he fires but they're all ready and then they dodge and he misses.

Problem solved.

as the scene rolls when luther gets the blade in his arm the film jumps so you get a short delayed bit of the film.i dont think they quite got the continuity right.so you get the scene where luther tells them theyre dead then swan throws the knife ,luther pulls the trigger.

now heres the bit i,d like explaining.if the warriors duck out of the way of the bullet it must be one hell of a miracle that those in the line of fire werent hit.after luther is hit with the knife the gun looks to be aiming at the ground.

yer i agree it always made me wonder ,they could have made that a bit more realistic ,i mean we love the warriors but they arent supermen no way could they dodge the bullet,so i told myself that because luther gets knifed he raises the gun in pain thus causing the bullet to shot skywards and not in the path of the warriors atleast thats what i want to believe :shock: :?:
