An experienced artist of the republic. Star Wars is off the screen

Movie buffs often entertain themselves by looking for errors and inconsistencies in the films they watch. As soon as a new film hits theaters, the keen eyes of onlookers notice every tiny change in a character's appearance or in the position of an object.

We have compiled for you a list of interesting movie bloopers, which, however, may be too subtle for many people. Most of them you probably never noticed, and it would be truly unforgivable if you never found out about them. Read on and you will never be able to watch these movies the same way before!

"Dusk"

If you watch the movie carefully, you can see the reflection of the camera in the car window. In fact, this is a common mistake that many directors forget about. A similar thing happened in Twilight.

"Iron Man 2"

At the beginning of the film, we see Tony Stark performing in his show wearing a white shirt. Then he momentarily disappears from the screen, appears already in a black shirt and remains in it until the end of the show.

Deadpool

If you look closely at the scene in which Deadpool is racing down the highway, you will notice that at one moment there is nothing behind him, and the next moment there are handles from swords.

In a scene filmed in a bar, Vanessa's neck tattoo appears and disappears again.

"Forrest Gump"

In the scene where Forrest meets Jenny, you can see an iron behind her, which seems to be moving by itself.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

When Aunt Petunia wishes Dudley a happy birthday from behind him, a microphone wire can be seen on her neck.

When Harry approaches the Gryffindor table after the sorting ceremony, he takes a seat next to Ron. But in the next scene he is already sitting between Hermione and Percy. That's what magic does!

"Titanic"

When Rose looks at the huge ship, her mole is on the left cheek, but then it is on the right.

In order to free Jack from the handcuffs, Rosa breaks the glass fire shield containing the ax. From the impact, all the glass flies out, but when she grabs the ax, its fragments are back in place.

It seems there were two ships. Otherwise, how can you explain the changing appearance of the deck?

"Crime novel"

Before giving Mia an adrenaline injection, Vincent paints a thick red mark on her chest. But when the girl is "reborn", the mark disappears.

When Mia and Vincent are sitting in a cafe, she smokes while choosing an order. Seen from the side, she is holding a cigarette in her left hand; and if from the front - in the right.

"The fifth Element"

Before jumping, Lilo is frightened by a monorail that passes on the wall next to her. The next moment she jumps, and we see that the scene has completely changed: there is no monorail, and the buildings look completely different.

Rapunzel: A Tangled Story

In the scene where Flynn makes his way to Rapunzel's tower, Gothel's mother stabs him with her dagger, but there is no blood left on the blade. There is a good explanation for this though: according to the movie's rating, there should be no blood on the screen.

When the dying Flynn touches Rapunzel's hair, it seems that the shackles on his hands are gone. Of course, they could slide on his hand, but in the next moment it is clear that they have returned to their original place.

"Inglourious Basterds"

In one scene, the emblems on the chest of a German officer disappear and then reappear.

"Avatar"

When Jake opens the capsule, there is no sign of a stroller next to it. But after a moment she appears from nowhere.

Terminator 2: Judgment Day

At the beginning of the film, Terminator shields John from the T-1000 bullets with his own body, and they bounce off his back. Naturally, many holes appear on the jacket. But after a few moments it looks like new.

When the truck driving the T-1000 chases John Connor, he passes under a bridge, causing the windshield to fly out. But in the next shot it is back in place.

"The Avengers"

In the scene where Thor destroys everything around, the bumper of one car is miraculously restored.

Dallas Buyers Club

The movie takes place in 1985, but in one scene we see a poster for a Lamborghini Aventador. This car was only released in 2011.

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

It seems that Captain Jack Sparrow's gang had several fans of modern fashion.

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines

At one point, John and Kate are flying in a small white plane. On board, the number N3035C is visible. However, after the heroes land, he suddenly changes to N3973F. Then the number that was originally included in the frame again.

"Marie Antoinette"

A truly shocking mistake can be seen in the film about this French queen, which was directed by Sofia Coppola. It seems that converse were popular among the aristocracy of the 18th century!

"Alien"

When the crew is on the alien ship, Kane can be seen wearing a special cap inside his spacesuit. When he is later admitted to the hospital, the suit's helmet is opened to remove the alien creature, but the cap suddenly disappears.

"Suspicious persons"

When we first see an airplane landing, it has four engines. In a second, it seems that he has already managed to lose half.

"Ted"

The main character, John, in all scenes of the film, holds the smartphone upside down. Although this does not seem to prevent him from communicating.

"Gladiator"

In one of the scenes in the film, you can see that the ancient Romans apparently used gas cans for their chariots. How can you miss such a blooper, and not see it before the film is released?

"Star Wars"

What do science fiction films of recent years have in common? They definitely have robots! "Terminator", "Robocop", "Transformers" - all of them were remembered for their futuristic models. Many of them have common features, since they were created by the same person - designer Vitaly Bulgarov, who moved from Moldova to Hollywood. Now his graphic solutions are embodied in metal. The South Korean firm Hankook Mirae Technology, which has created one of the largest manned robots in the world, is doing this.

When the first articles about the Method-1 prototype appeared, many readers were skeptical. The images presented were more like a render for another movie than a photograph of a real robot.

Indeed, it has not been without embellishment, but real prototypes differ little from a 3D model. Doubts were dispelled by a demonstration of Method-2, led by Amazon founder and robotics fanatic Jeff Bezos at the MARS conference last year.

In the video, we see that Bezos is just waving the robot's arms, trying to get comfortable with the controls. In fact, it is very simple. The robot copies the movements of the operator, just with a noticeable delay. Therefore, out of habit, it seemed to Jeff that the robot did not accept the command, and he gave it again.

Method-2 runs on Linux OS and EtherCAT industrial real-time processing system. It uses Intel Xeon processors (up to 16), connected via IBM System X 4. So, there are no problems with command processing - there is plenty of computing power. The catch lies elsewhere.

The robot is driven by a complex system of 56 electric motors of nine different types. Each of them has a small delay, which add up. The motors are powered by three lithium-ion batteries with operating voltages of 24 V, 48 V and 320 V. A single charge lasts a maximum of three hours, therefore mains power is used for laboratory tests.

The bottom of Method-2 is made entirely of aluminum alloy. The upper part is only 20% aluminum. Lightweight cab (excluding glazing) and manipulators are 80% carbon fiber.

The robot has incorporated many non-trivial solutions. In the next video, you can see unusual joints that can move in two planes at once, complex limb profiles and a swaying gait that provides constant stabilization of the robot. It also demonstrates external control and precise manipulator movements - each finger bends independently and very smoothly.
The operator uses a ladder to climb into the 4200 cm high robot cab. For safety, some of the functions are tested using a gimbal. The robot is very heavy (about 1600 kg with the pilot), so it is supported by steel chains.

Hankook Mirae Technology has spent over $ 100 million on the development of manned robots. The company is negotiating the creation of specialized models based on Method-2 and their use in eliminating the consequences of various emergencies. Robots with large and powerful arms (now more than seven meters wide) would be good helpers when clearing debris, and remote control reduces operator risk. The armed forces are also expressing their interest in the project, but so far the robot is too slow for combat missions.

How to feel like not the last Jedi?

The space opera "Star Wars" with all the additions in the form of comics, cartoons, games and souvenirs is an example of a student's dream come true. After watching the films of Akira Kurosawa and having read Burroughs, the unknown student became, over time, George Lucas. No, of course he was always George Walton Lucas Jr., that's what his parents called him, but he turned his name into a brand with the help of Star Wars. Few people managed to create something else like that, except for Tolkien of the hobbits, but everyone can get inside this epic. So, "we step into the TV" and find ourselves in the world of the Jedi, Princess Leia and P2D2. It is quite obvious that the game creators are unlikely to succeed in “surpassing” Lucas in terms of the script and invent something completely different from the “Star Wars” plot, and there is no need, but each game has its own mechanics and focus, so choose the right one to get the most out of it.

Shooter-quest "Star Wars"

Organizer: immersion amusement park
Location: st. Avtozavodskaya, 18, TC "Riviera"
Number of players: 2-20 people
Age: 12+
Cost: from 1500 rubles per person

The Death Star space station conceals a combat weapon that carries, as usual, chaos and destruction. Even if you are not very familiar with the topic and are not aware that this base appeared after the defeat of the Imperial Remnant and the destruction of the sinister Starkiller, yes, in general, you also know little about the Sith Lord - all this does not matter. The decorations will play the role assigned to them, the immersion in the cosmic atmosphere will be created by music, the sounds of blaster shots, the play of light and shadow. The quest itself lasts 40 minutes and another 20 will be spent on a preliminary explanation and summing up. Several teams can be in the location at the same time, maximum - 4 groups of 5 people each, but each will have its own task proposed for completion at the beginning of the game. It will help to unite the team, because without activating the attention of all participants, it simply cannot be dealt with. Then the fun begins - everyone fights against everyone and everyone is for himself... True, it is impossible to "die" here, even if you have run out of "lives" - return to the base, reinforce your forces and go to fight further. Each player is given a special vest and a blaster, the number of cartridges in which is not limited, but it is still impossible to shoot without stopping, each weapon requires periodic reloading. Your goal is to seize power over the base. At the end of the game, the team will come back together for a scoring, which takes into account both individual achievements and team statistics. The gaming location is located on the third floor of a shopping center and is spacious, futuristic and well thought out. For example, there are mirror fortifications, with their help, players can develop combat tactics, look for cover and the best places to attack the enemy. In general, the game, like any laser tag, is very dynamic, so the advice is to dress comfortably, wear comfortable shoes and cool clothes, you will have to sweat thoroughly. At the same time, this is not just a laser tag - there are riddles and tasks that inform the game about the elements of the quest. We'll have to shoot, and run, and think.

An unexpected bonus game is its location. In order to play, you do not need to go somewhere separately, on purpose. You can combine the event with a shopping trip or dinner with friends. And even after the game there is a place to discuss everything that happened, exchange impressions - a food court and separate cafes of the Riviera are at your service.

Target audience of the game - active company of friends... You can play both together, and even alone, joining a team or leaving for "free swimming", but the undoubted plus of the location is its size and the ability to host a company, for example, of 20 people, dividing everyone into separate teams.


Live story quest "Star Wars"

Organizer: "QUESTCORP"
Location: visiting
Number of players: 9-100 people
Duration: 2 hours
Cost: individual payment

Another name for such quests is "role-playing". Actually, that says it all: the players are given roles, according to which they exist inside the playing space. At the same time, the quest is not a theater, the role has no text, only a mode of action. What exactly to do, you decide for yourself, accordingly turning the scenario of the game or simply shifting a little in the direction you are interested in. At the beginning of the quest, an introductory story is given with the following content: The Republic is ruined due to the Clone Wars, the question arose about the need to create an absolute weapon - a combat Space Station. Everything is almost ready, but, as usual, several parts are missing, which can only be obtained from the Black Market of Coruscant. Everything would be fine, but the merchants of Coruscant are not engaged in direct sales, you can get the right thing only by winning the "fair games". There is also a Kua capsule on the market, by opening which you will receive ... Well, you first get it, and then you will figure out what to do with this treasure. Along the way with intrigue, espionage, bribery and other "dark deeds", do not forget to finish building the Space Station and save the Galaxy.

Distinctive feature of this game - its away nature. It can be carried out anywhere and for any number of people, within a hundred.

The target audience - large groups, organizers of corporate events -offices and companies that want to arrange interesting and memorable corporate for yourself and your employees.

But the event is really memorable. Here is just one of the reviews that we saw on the organizer's website, the QUESTCORP company:

“The youth activists from the village played a powerful team quest" Star Wars: The Clone Wars "from Questcorp. Expectations were very different, but everyone joined the unusual format of the game and really became Traders, Investigators, Committees and even entire departments of the Planet. There was a real struggle for Resources, intrigues lingered, rumors circulated around the world - everything if only to complete the Game Tasks and not let the team down! The main tool of the participants - the communication skill - was pumped at a serious level. Encouraged by the leaders, the teams obtained the necessary information from the most hidden enemies. For all departments of the Empire, the results of the game were different - there is room for improvement! "


Quest with closed eyes “Episode V-I. Blind game "

Organizer: "Morpheus"
Location: 4th Tverskaya-Yamskaya, 2/11
Number of players: 2-4 people
Age: 14+
Duration: 90 minutes
Cost: from 3500 rubles per team

Sleep and dream, dream and escape for a second from reality, kissing, in the end - we used to do all this with closed eyes... Approximately this mechanism is used in games from the Morpheus company. In light of the release of the new part of Star Wars, we recommend that you not just revisit the previous episode of the saga, but be inside the film. Hold a laser sword in your hands, shoot a blaster, make your own decision, separating the “bad” from the “good”. In this quest, you are the one who builds the scenario of the game, and it will depend on your decisions which direction the storyline will turn in. You have tasks, but you can complete them in completely different ways. Any improvised object or mechanism can become a weapon, as well as a means of defense, because this world is only in your head. Although, the operator helps you, leads and directs you inside the game, and his assistant is responsible for the sounds, touches and smells of the game world. Where does it all start? You enter a room, they sit you on a chair, blindfold you and, in an almost hypnotic, enveloping voice, immerse you in the game universe. Further - only your imagination, which the operator helps to implement. For example, you can ask to voice what exactly you picked up, for example, on the road, and it really will appear in your hands. A distinctive feature of the game scheme is that you are not given hints. You yourself are looking for a way out of the situation, and it cannot be right or wrong, it can only be yours personally.

The originality of what is happening lies in the very format of the game, in the very game mechanics. Before "Morpheus" no one invented or did this. They even say that the game was developed by military psychologists, but this is nothing more than rumors. Although, in every joke there is….

Target audience of the game - those who are tired of classic quests and want to try something different. At the same time, those who have never played and believe that quests are not for them. Experienced playerswho will find a way out of any situation. In the same time, newbieswho are afraid to go to scary performances or go through confused escapes. Fans Star Wars, dreaming of being the heroes of the film. At the same time, those who have not watched a single part, but want to find themselves in this cosmic saga, without revising it from the basics.

Organizer: "QUESTKINDER"
Location: visiting
Number of players: up to 30 people, then individually
Duration: 2 hours

There is an opinion that with age, the ability to dream becomes dulled, fantasy dries up and imagination ripples, in general, theorists of human souls say, an adult needs attributes that are not required for children.

After that, the guys rightfully become students of the Jedi and take their place on the light side of the Force. Despite their young age, they have a responsible mission: infiltrate the base of the dark lord Darth Vader and return the stolen schemes of the Jedi military bases. Before that, young Padawans will have to solve many riddles, find all the caches, pick up the code for the safe, and, to all other joys, also defuse the bomb. The quest consists of four stages. The first is equipment, clothing in the robe of the Jedi. The second stage is physical preparation and team building. Here you have to run, learn how to fight with a lightsaber and complete various tasks for agility and strength. The third part of the game is directly quest tasks: defuse the bomb, find the code for the safe, illuminate the inscriptions with ultraviolet light, decipher the password for the laptop, and, ultimately, return the drawings of the Jedi bases. After that, you can go to the fourth level and go on individual assignments in the laboratory of Darth Vader. In a dark-dark room ... well, or in a tent, to be more precise, each player is blindfolded in turn, a video camera is hung on his head and sent to wander in the dark under the frenzied screams of his comrades. Everything would be fine, but these screams need to be somehow deciphered, because they are the eyes of the player, because all the other team members see the image from the action camera on the monitor and tell how and where to collect the elements of the code needed to open the secret capsule.

Interesting feature offers - division of service packages into "standard", "super" and "VIP". You can choose the right one based on your financial preferences.

ProRealGames correspondent,
Vladislava Pozdnyakov

Two years ago, the wonderful comedian Yevgeny Morgunov left us - a man who almost lived to see the XXI century, who almost played out in theater and cinema and for a whole year outlived his beloved son Nikolai ... I did not know Evgeny Morgunov fleeting, so I would like to share with readers my memories of him.

Evgeny Alexandrovich was dying hard. His hard life ended in front of the exhausted doctors at the Kremlin hospital, who for the last six years had been struggling with his ailment - diabetes mellitus, against the background of which he suffered a stroke. Together with Yevgeny Morgunov, a whole generation of wonderful comedic actors left: Papanov, Mironov, Leonov, Nikulin, Evstigneev, Smirnov and many others. For some reason, a new generation that could replace them has not yet been born, and comedies of equal quality to the films of past years have not appeared either. Who can boast that we watched some modern comedy 25 times, as we once watched the imperishable short films "Watchdog Dog" and "Moonshiners"? But - stop! What do we inherit from a cheerful fat man who made us roll with laughter? Several posthumous articles in the press (during his lifetime, journalists did not spoil the actor very much) and that's all. No one book or booklet, not a single documentary film or TV show about his work has yet been created. Officials Yevgeny Morgunov did not seem to notice, delaying the assignment of titles and deleting his name from the cinematography. He remained an honored artist, recognized in the world as a "national". He always went against the generally accepted, which is why he suffered. Any injustice caused mad rage and anger in him. He tore his throat with his superiors, for which they disliked him, did not tolerate humiliation, could not stand arrogance. Officials avoided him, but he loved the people, idolized women. He sowed good, appreciated friendship, protected the weak. The name of Morgunov is covered with legends, an incredible amount of speculation, tales and anecdotes circulated about him. For example, this one. Vitsin, Nikulin and Morgunov are crossing the river on a raft. The raft overturned, the three fell into the water. "Help! There's a crocodile!" - Vitsin squealed. "Save! There's a crocodile in the river!" - echoes Nikulin. Then a crocodile emerges and shouts: "Save yourself, who can! There is a hippopotamus in the river !!!"
Or such a story. Once in Paris, a young lady asked Morgunov: "Eugene, take me to the Lido." We will go with you to the Lido, only after, not before, "Morgunov replied. Or, for example, the actor said:" Now I am rehearsing the role of Mumu. True, I'm afraid I can't do it, since Gerasimov was my director and teacher. "
His sparkling humor amazed those around him. At times it seemed that his hero Experienced came off the screen and continues to play out in life. He gushed with witticisms, puns, and sometimes became serious, sat down at the piano and performed Schubert, Chopin, Beethoven by heart ... He easily quoted Kafka, the ancient Roman Horace, the ancient Greek Sophocles ...
In honor of the famous troika loved by the people: Evgeny Morgunov, Yuri Nikulin and Georgy Vitsin, the only Museum of Three Actors in our country dedicated to their work was organized, which contains unique exhibits: postcards, badges, photographs, clippings from newspapers and magazines, letters, personal belongings , autographs, posters, souvenirs, paintings and much more. At the opening of the museum, Yuri Nikulin said: "Usually museums are created after the death of an actor, and here the museum is ready, and we no longer need to die." His words turned out to be to some extent prophetic: Yuri Nikulin and Yevgeny Morgunov remained in the history of Russian comedy and circus. And most importantly - in the hearts of millions of fans of their unique talent.
