Alec Baldwin just killed someone

so um ya... how does a prop gun misfire again

its just suppose to make a fkin noise and poof some smoke at most.... not actually fire anything
 
Why not use just airsoft at this stage? or CGI? Or both? Or whatever - instead of slaughtering people on set.

This has happened before with blanks. The wadding or whatever comes out with enough force to kill.
Might have been a shotgun type thing. Maybe he was pranking them and stuck it in their butts or something.

Prop guns are always better but are dangerous in the hands of idiots. Even with modern CGI it's hard to perfectly recreate a realistic muzzle blast. It's also hard for actors to fake flinching/recoiling from each shot while focusing on the rest of their performance (especially if they've never shot a real gun before which is most of Hollywood).

Even with prop guns firing "blanks" you're not supposed to fire it directly at the other person (the camera isn't your eyes, it doesn't see that you're purposefully slightly off aim).

:weird:
 
why does a muzzle blast need to involve a projectile though... why not just a small explosive in the barrel
