minus-squareace_garp@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·3 days agoSo dumb. Hour argument, that the final cliff fall scene in Predator 1 was two different jumps in the 2 cuts. Can see in the first one he is rotating. Second cut is a straight plumb drop into the water. How were the rotational moments counteracted? They weren’t, it’s two different jumps/takes. 2 friends came up with some hair-brained arguments that you could stop rotating on the way down. (눈_눈) The only way would be air resistance, and hands/arms is not going to be enough to create drag to counter the rotation.
