It's possible something similar happened here with all the safety breaches and sloppiness. |

Given Baldwin's well documented temper and attitude, one could easily assume that he was front and center in all the shady shit going on during the production. At the very least he was present on set, and at this point who knows if any of the other producers were there. I don't seeing him being the type to merely sit back and passively watch all the disputes that were going on prior to the shooting.

Its just amazing that they had so many misfires and crew trouble, yet didn't halt production for at least a day or two and regroup |

The Union who was overseeing production went on strike. Baldwin was the only producer who did not want scabs to replace the Union production workers. I know there's a big thirst for Baldwin to get pounded for this, but as of now the details make this look more like a tragedy aided by profit driven incompetence from the overall production company rather than being singularly on Baldwin. |

Is it an unloaded gun, a gun with rubber plugs, or a gun loaded with blanks? Only two of those really sound "cold" in my mind. If I'm an actor on a set that has already had a couple "misfires", whatever the hell that means, that didn't shut down production to correct or replace the fault, I'm damn sure going to take the 2 seconds it takes to thumb the cover and roll the cylinder to see it's empty. It's really that simple in this case, thumb and roll. You either see the rounds in the cylinder or you don't. It'd take another whole 5 seconds to dump the rounds in your palm, see they're indeed blanks or rubber plugs, and reload them. I've watched quite a few videos of Hallie Berry, Reeves, and other actors on shooting ranges getting very comfortable with much more complicated weapons using live rounds prior to creating a movie. Perhaps Douche Canoe doesn't do this and wouldn't know such a simple process, I don't know. In my mind, a lot of this whole scenario probably comes down to attempting to make a movie on a budget fit for a commercial. Cut all the corners and bad shit happens. At least in this case it was the asshole in the room holding the smoking gun. |
