: Ok, I'll try ...
: : Would someone please recap what the bloopers were? I know of the following:
: : 1) the famous blue cap/megaphone during the massacre;
: After the SECOND warrior strikes down a colonial at Massacre Valley the camera angle switches to a rear view of the column. Look at the bottom center/right of the screen.
:
: : 2) the extra man at the elk kill;
: As the elk runs through the forest, you'll see a reddish blur in the background amidst the foliage. This one is hard to catch ... run it in slow motion ...
:
: : 3) the tour buses during the abandoning of the fort by the English; and
: As the British evacuate Fort William Henry, and just as Munro utters the line, "The Fort is yours." look in the middle distance ... you'll see the silver/white bus(ses).
: : 4) the stuntman testing the canoe that goes over the falls.
: I don't know of this one ...
: : Are there others?
: The other prominent one would be the "moving" rock. As Hawkeye runs through a rock crevice, up on the Cliff Trail as he is chasing the Huron war party, he leans up against the "wall" ... obviously draped with a gray cloth ... it moves!
: Heard there's a diver visible somewhere ... never have found that. Then, there's the mysterious rifle that Hawkeye picks up on the Cliff Trail ... that one never disturbed me all that much. There are other "minor" ones, sometimes little more than viewer "dislike" that I wouldn't really consider bloopers. I think that covers the main ones.
: See our Mohican Musings Index. We have little pieces on your first 3 in there ... Actually, I believe a shot of the busses can be found in our DVD screen capture section
Thanks Rich! I figured you would know. Guess I misunderstood about the stuntman testing the canoe.
Bloopers are fun in that it adds another dimension to the movie.
