I love the timing on cutting away from the glasses repair

Great....so now when producers edit audio to change what's actually been said, they can add video of the person saying the made up phrases. That was one way I determined if what I'm watching is real or edited....when they would splice audio together to create a monologue/dialogue, they had to cut away from the speakers face so you wouldn't notice the 1975 kungfu level dubbing....now they can convincingly fake both....in real time? We're totally fucked. Reality just became obsolete.

I'm going to Mars.

So what would you have done if (despite physics laws) you jumped in and sunk straight to the bottom and had been unable to climb or swim to the surface? It seemed like there was a lot more water than air between the balls, so I guess you probably would have drowned. Did you have somebody standing by with a rope or something the first time? I saw several shots where some of the kids jumped in head first but it always cut away before it showed how easy or hard it was to get back upright and above water. I see this being a little more dangerous that how lighthearted it was presented. But it still looks fun.

I knew a guy that sky-dived, who said the rule in most emergencies was "One, two, fuck you"; you have 2 tries to fix something on your main and then you cut away and pull your reserve.

Speaking as a philosophy graduate, Karl is basically my to go guy for philosophy of science.

He cut away of a lot of nonsense in the subject by thoroughly refuting the idea of inductivism, which is unfortunately how most non-scientists seem to think of scientific "truth".

Science can't make true statements, it can only refute untrue statements.

This is the only way for empiricism to get around the problem of induction. (& even then it just avoids the problem rather than solving it)

We don't know the sun will rise tomorrow, but we can attempt to refute theories that suggest that it won't.

Thus any theory which is not falsifiable is not truly scientific.

(I realise I'm restating some of the above, but dammit that expensive university education has to be useful for something!)

So, it looks like he's wearing that same black material everywhere under the spider print, I'm guessing it's meant to be some light armor that can close to protect the eyes.

I think the movie makers realize it's a problem that you can't show expression with a full mask. Notice with Tony Stark they're always cutting away to show a view from inside the helmet.

The Quick Clot stuff, used when it isn't supposed to be, irritates the living daylights out of surgeons because they end up having to debride (Cut away) lots of tissue they wouldn't have to otherwise.

But this seems like a brilliant response to military grade gunshot and shrapnel wounds, where the entrance hole is small, then the body cavity is large (from the expansion of the bullet)---

Useful and will save lives and doing it while saving tissue.

Total dick move.



Why did the camera cut away?

I'm sorry, I know they have a list of credits at the end, but I'm pretty sure that the diver is CG. It's in the uncanny valley with the body movements. I bet in a week they will come back and say, "See? We tricked you all. Hire us for your next animation." They cut away before the foot goes into the sand because not for cinematic purposes, but instead because of the complexity of such a simulation.

Complete brain dead tool with a cadre of even less intelligent/informed followers, but I must say, I really dislike the way the video was edited. I doubt they changed his message, but I can't even be sure HE said this insanity now because they edited it so poorly that he could have actually been railing against people who think this insanity and they edited and changed what he said.
It's the same as 'reality' TV, where if you can't see a non-cut away, smooth (no jumps or jerks) shot of the lips of the person talking, you can't have any idea if they actually said what's presented, because they cut up audio/video to have them say whatever the producers like. That's fine with me, except when they present it as 'reality', 'fact', or 'news', that's where I take issue.

Yeah, just like I thought, they cut away right before stuff gets interesting (two times!).
Sure, she can open the door, but will she actually go fully through that door, or just stay there, wondering, about inside, or outside, or maybe inside,

Good point, when she mentioned studies on "resistance" I was skeptical they could really be equated with difficult clothing. And, while I think this would probably do more good than harm, there are some worrying scenarios. For example they say it could protect unconscious women from having their shorts cut away. But a prolonged knife attack on super tight fitting shorts sounds like it would result in lots of cutting.

This is wonderful stuff. I love the presentation too. Long steady shots of the subject, with a steady stream of information and no fluff. No rapid fire editing. No stupid music. No cutting away to a talking head who will preview/sum-up the video every 60 seconds.
