Good bubbles...name one 100+ft 3 masted clipper ship that can sail with just one man at the wheel.. Ghost. BTW, the shark shown attacking Cooky was too small to take his leg off. That depends, if you judge the size by the fake dorsal fin breaking the surface then it looks big enough, if you take the two second shot of a real shark then you are correct And quite soon afterwards he's shown just fine with the leg tied off at the stump. Such a traumatic amputation would not be so simple to treat. He'd likely have died or at least required a long time to recover. Yeah, and the Doc's blood tranfusion started by cookie's knife wound was kinda funny, unless she was going to drink the blood. But you're worried about who's at the wheel!!! No... I'm wondering who's tending the sails...no-one.....ever. Any scenes in Captain's Coragious with one guy at the wheel/tiller? Yes and two at times, and a working crew, since they used real ships Curtiz's Artsey fartsey version would not work. How about Jason and and the Argonauts? Now that's a show you can expect to have to use your imagination. The Sea Wolf was not, and suffered from it. Joe RB 35s5 NY |
