I've thought it to be a poorly edited piece of the movie becuase you can read it either way and probably be accurate. When "art" is open to interpretation it usually isn't supposed to be due to a failure in the product. But in this instance it does look like it was supposed to imply a different angle of the same gunshot, but the only footage they had to use didn't match it well, thus leaving a confusing string of shots. I really think it boils down to each viewer rationalizing what the director/editor did here to a way that seems reasonable when watching the movie.
Liberals claim to love "others ideas", until they find out people actually have other ideas.

Yep you are correct.but.I think it's the "same" scene but a different take and angle. You are correct in the fact that it's Tom as I am correct about the jump to the left. Now to say same scene different angle is wrong. That does happen a second later when Doc with his head down starts blasting at the building that Ike ran into. That is repeated and again from a different angle, but it's the same. The second and third shots from Doc with the shotgun are different.

You didn't respond to my point. Doc shoots, Tom gets blown back. Doc shoots again, Tom gets blown back again.
It's the same scene, shown twice.
Anybody else care to comment on this?
I intend to live forever.
So far, so good.

Watch carefully!
Back at ya.

Watch it again. At the second shot, you see Tom McLaury blown back. At the third shot, you see Tom McLaury blown back again. It's the same shot from two different angles.
Watch carefully!

So far, so good.

Sorry bobbie you are 100% wrong. It is a mistake and not the same shot from another angle. You see Doc fire into the air on shot one, shot 2 he is stood firmly still and fires. The third shot he jumps to his left and fires again almost still on the move.Lookat where the gun is. Shot 2 it's in his shoulder. The third is almost from the hip.

Wut doO yU mEen

I guess I was foolish to hope that I may also be sexy when talking about the west. Am I at least ruggedly handsome in my discussions?

Ha! You're the only IDIOT here. As a matter of fact I hope you burn to death in a fire tonight

Its so sexy when you call people who talk about the Wild West "Idiots".
"I am on intimate terms with the desert"

It does sound bleak, especially when you add in that your favorite Wyatt Earp movie is a certified turd.

Anyone know the reference?

Are you RETARDED??? I clearly stated why I was here. Now get lost before I pray for your death.

Now you're just egging him on

So tell us about yourself, now, Corky. Lets get to know the man behind the shrub.

You're so dreamy bobbiekay

Go easy on Corky. He's really a decent guy. I'm flattered that he has a crush on me, and he's becoming a favorite among my stalkers!
And I do get stalkers!
I intend to live forever.
So far, so good.

A problem? No. Wildly entertained? Yes.

Ok, so now you're saying you have a problem with my postings?

If you haven't visited that board, you should read some of his discussions.
Thanks, but I'll pass. This is really the only board I frequent, as it's not full of childish trolls and little keyboard warriors. Boring.

He's a semiregular on the Wyatt Earp movie board, but he discoverd Bobbiekaye and now he's over here, too. If you haven't visited that board, you should read some of his discussions. It can get pretty bizarre. In fact, maybe you don't want to read it.

Do you have even one non-silly, intelligent comment to make about this movie? If not, I'm not sure why you're here?

You're right, the only woman I'm interested in is bobbiekay and she's taken. I hate this world

Dolphins!?! And you say I sound boring? You're never gonna get a woman with that attitude.

Eh, you sound boring. And I'm a Dolphins fan anyway.
