#cool guys don't look at explosions

[prokopetz]

To be fair, there are perfectly practical filmmaking reasons why cool guys don't look at explosions:

Most low to medium budget productions don't use compositing or CGI to put the actor in the same shot as the explosion – they just put the actor much further away from the explosion than you think they are, and use forced perspective tricks to minimise the apparent distance. There are a limited number of camera angles those tricks permit, and most of them require the actor to be directly between the explosion and the camera.

In spite of the fact that the distance between the explosion and the actor is larger than you think, mistakes happen, and the best way to avoid catching a piece of flying debris in the eye is to direct your line of sight away from the explosion.

"Cool guy slowly walking away from explosion" happens to be a very obvious way of satisfying both of those safety constraints.

Hi can I interest anybody in my plans to annihilate a company office party based on this post by @dragonmouth?

This is a really good plan and literally nothing can go wrong.

Cool guys don’t look at explosions.

Especially when they had nothing to do with said explosion and are just as surprised as everyone else.

tall reader picks up one of the links and carries him bridal style as he looks at them with love and admiration, they walk away from an exploding monster camp with fancy music ❤️ just thought of this and decided to share lol

I'm so excited for this to come out XD

It was just the first thing I thought of.

Anon, I wish you would have mentioned this earlier. I would have loved to add it. But as it stands, I'm not sure how.

That's a lovely idea, Anon. Thank you for sharing. <3

"Stand at the crossroads and look. Ask which paths are the old, reliable paths. Ask which way leads to blessings.

Live that way, and find a resting place for yourselves.

But you said that you wouldn’t live that way."
