Re: Alec Baldwin charged with involuntary manslaughter over death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins

The principle remains the same though. You either don't mix them up with live rounds or you check everyone before you use them. Or ideally both.

eta: I mean they had zero need for live ammo on a film set, there's not excuse really for having any on set to start with.

It kind of sucks to have charges dropped and re-brought but i can't really say there isn't a case to answer here. There is a case. There was a monumental lapse in safety and it caused the death of one and injured another. In many minds, someone needs to pay for that lapse, and Baldwin was the Man I...

TIL that before he played pretty much the definitive Hercule Poirot, David Suchet played Inspector Japp to Peter Ustinov's Poirot. In a very Steptoe/Tony Hancock accent which is jarring if you only know him as Poirot.

The closest you'd get to it being a literal flag ship is the first two TOS movies but even then Kirk was an Admiral but he wasn't for...
