Do you even know what kind of fire arm was in use yet?

No because I dont believe any of it Haven't you figured that out by now?

Do you actually think these professional liars are telling us the truth?

They winged the director just for good measure lol

A loaded one

Good job Alec.

As much as I despise Mr. Baldwin, actors (in general) are fairly stupid creatures and only do as they are told. They recite lines they've memorized and pretend to be people they aren't.

If the prop person handed Baldwin a knife that was supposed to be springy and bendy and fake but handed him a real one by mistake and Baldwin stabbed a person, then yes, Baldwin did the stabbing but it's the responsibility of the prop person to give the actor the right tools.

Boom

Right in the face

Because, apperently, the scene required him to point at the camera and pull the trigger.

That is where, it's my understanding, both the director and cinematographer will be located.

So, a malfunction/horrible mistake, prime ingredients for tragedy. That's what happened, 'til proven otherwise.

Odds are very good he was the first one talked to...

Like a sock puppet but the big difference is they get paid and have throngs of adoring fans unlike the sock.

So because he's an actor he's a "professional liar"?

How convenient for you.

Don't even know what the gun was yet, had to be informed as to how many people were shot a few pages back, but you have it all summed up.

It really is that simple.

I'm really at a loss why people feel the need to politicise this.
Ok, some people don't like Baldwin and his politics, but where's the relevance and bearing on this shooting?

Someone once offered me a Moist William, but I got ascared and ran away.

THIS IS NOT THE MUD PIT!

This thread is not the place for political sniping and in no place on Abovetopsecret is it permitted for members to sling baseless accusations at each other complete with childish name calling.

It stops now. Anyone who decides to reignite the fires Staff just spent well over 30 minutes stomping out throughout this thread will likely find themselves post banned and get the privilege of a one-on-one chat with Staff to get their posting privileges restored. Behave like adults or be treated like children, it is just that simple.

Do not reply to this post

Some.

Most of those living here, don't in any way think like that. Horrible accident, and they go on with their lives.

Because horrible accidents happen all the time, unfortunately.

According to the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees, the prop gun Alec Baldwin discharged on the "Rust" set contained a "live round." The single live round reportedly hit cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and director Joel Souza. Hutchins was killed.

well well

Alec Baldwin 'Rust' camera crew walked off the set in protest before the fatal shooting

Hours before actor Alec Baldwin fatally shot a cinematographer on the New Mexico set of "Rust" with a prop gun, a half-dozen camera crew workers walked off the set to protest working conditions.

A-N-D . . . !

Three crew members who were present at the Bonanza Creek Ranch set that day said they were particularly concerned about two accidental prop gun discharges on Saturday.

response from the movie lawyers ......😂

I have worked at Bonanza Creek MR on many shows in the past 20 years as an actor an crew and have seen many accidents; usually involving horses and people overestimating their abilities on riding a stupid, temperamental 1k lb. animal.

Producers will cut corners when it comes to safety of those on set. That was one of the reasons for the strike by IATSE.
