: Greetings:
: Would someone please recap what the bloopers were? I know of the following:
: 1) the famous blue cap/megaphone during the massacre;
: 2) the extra man at the elk kill;
: 3) the tour buses during the abandoning of the fort by the English; and
: 4) the stuntman testing the canoe that goes over the falls.
: Are there others?
It's always fun going over the bloopers....
How about on the George Road after Chinga...throw his war club
and gets the indian in the back. When he pulls it out the angle is wrong.
And there's Uncas's earring showing on the wrong ear when he
looks at Alice as she's climbing up the side of the river. This
scene of Uncas was shot at a different time so the negative was
backwards. (I believe this is what is explained here on the site)
After Magua kills Uncas you can see the cast on his leg for a
split second. His legging is much higher than his other leg.
Nathaniel is the last to jump from behind the waterfall yet
he helps Uncas pull their Father from the water.
How come their powder was all wet behind the waterfall yet it
had dryed in time to shoot Duncan at his bonfire?
Eric Hurley told us if you watch in the massacre scene you can
see muskets bending while their fighting. Some were made of rubber. I've seen them bending.
When they arrive at Fort William Henry you see Cora bandaging
Uncas, yet we never saw him get injured. Not a blooper just a
cause of editing.
I bet there's more, but my mind is blank now. I wish we were
all sitting around a campfire right now talking about all this.
I miss everyone. The time comes and goes so fast......
