You don't need AI to make glaring mistakes with archery. I don't blame Jennifer Lawrence for this. It is a prop bow, so it doesn't have the tensile pull of a real bow and she probably didn't actually loose the arrow for real. I bet there were probably at least twenty people behind the camera for this scene and who knows how many producers and set workers behind them. No one caught this? With all their bloat, the studio couldn't hire one real archer to coach Jennifer Lawrence (and the directors) on how bows actually work. They could cover all the bases for this in a single afternoon. I watch a lot of Youtube videos of HEMA enthusiasts. They are desperate for sponsors and patrons and probably willing to work for cheap. Nor is this limited to The Hunger Games. Movie and TV archers are often crazy unrealistic. An action movie should not skimp on the action details.
I mean, we also somehow got a Robin Hood movie that went so far into absurdity as to make the crusades look like a fantasy version of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Any movie or TV show created after 2004 and set in the Middle East or in a fantasy setting that vaguely resembles the Middle East MUST include some kind of commentary or allegory to the second Bush administration's Iraq War. I believe it's the law.
Nah, I'm fairly certain it had more to do with the movie being one of those "it's so bad that it's good" cases where the cast and crew knew it was going to be bad well ahead of time, and so just went with the absurdity to entertain their paychecks. Plus, Kingdom of Heaven exists.
