In the first movie he's using an m-60. In this case, firing from the hip is alright because he has to feed the belt as well as hoist up a 25lb machinegun and compensate for the barrel climb. Plus, when you're spraying lead you really dont have to aim. "Mother" also does it like this in full...

That looks awesome, and the image on the go pro looks really good too. If you could get rid of the vibration this would be perfect.

I've noticed this too. There are a lot of trends throughout the years when it comes to guns. In black and white movies they would aim from the hip, in the 60s they would hold it in front of their face with their arms bent. Holding the gun sideways in the late 90's The trend lately is...

It would be a really inexpensive way to get some cool helicopter shots though. that first video was pretty cool.

seems like a good idea until your camera falls to its death. maybe use a go-pro or something?

yeah, I can agree with this. I think action is probably the most universal, but I think there are still moments in the extreme that it can be too over the top or unnecessary and the audience will say "really? are they STILL fighting?" I mean, this never happens to me, I never get tired of...

thats something I am prepared to live with.

yeah, thats true. Comedy is complicated. There is no universal comedy. But I guess thats true for everything though. There is no universal action or sci fi or documentary.

well most bad movies I cant. but there are some that are bad in a good way. airbender was a huge dissapointment. I sat through it, but in the first 30 seconds I was like... oh no...

or better yet, bury a pale teenage girl between a vampire and a werewolf.... then just leave them there... forever.

yeah, I have to agree with you there. Jason X was one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. When Jason goes into the simulation room and the campers are there and he beats one of them with the other in a sleeping bag..... I really did almost pee my pants. Its very rare that a horror movie...

Thats awesome.

Nope, actually I'm not even arguing. I think everyone has a genre default. Like with me, if I'm bored and want to watch something, and I have no idea what I want to watch, I put a comedy on. I dated a girl who for some reason hated comedy and preferred documentaries about how sick and...

I think thats what an insurance seminar is.

Failure is the best teacher. With failure comes necessity, with necessity comes ingenuity, with ingenuity comes brilliance. Literally just made that up, sounds inspiring though, right?

I think anyone will tell you, just get out there and shoot anything, even if its terrible. The more you shoot, the better you'll get and by the time you gather all the right equipment over the years, you'll know how to use it and you'll be ready to make something good. Being in the military...

yeah, the funniest thing I hear all the time is "You should see this movie, it made me cry so hard." to which I laugh and say "Why the hell would I want to pay $14 to cry? If thats what you like to do for kicks, pull up a chair and I'll tell you a little about MY life! You'll have a blast!"

Well put, sir. Self educated, represent!

Has anyone used hitfilm. I've heard some good things, but I'm curious how it stacks up.

totally agree if art was easy and made tons of money, everyone would be doing it. I wonder if the big name people have the same problem with higher numbers. like Michael Bay comes home, grabbs a glass of bourbon and slumps down on his exploding couch and says "They must think anyone can...
