Looks good. I just wonder how many dumb f-cks are going to try and "bend bullets" after watching that movie.
Haha, yeah that part is pretty dumb. Even IF that's how curving worked...the velocity of your arm compared to the velocity of the bullet is outrageously disproportional. Anyone who's studied mathematics and physics knows that the actual reason for curving is the spin or rotation perpendicular to the velocity vector. This rotation creates a low pressure zone on one side of the object which alters its trajectory. To create the spin needed (if possible), aggressive groves would have to be cut into the barrel, which would drastically reduce mussel velocity and hence final velocity of the projectile.
EDIT: Now that I think about it, its not possible, because barrels already contain grooves that put a spin on the bullet which aides in-flight stability. To curve the bullet you would need to have to have a rotation that is not exactly perpendicular to the direction of travel, and with a oblong projectile, that's just not possible.

I've been trying to get my girl, brother or his girl to stand in the middle of the street and I'd floor it down the street open the door, go sideways to have them gently slide onto the passenger seat while maintaining speed but no one will do it
I really want some of thsoe custom bullets with tribal on the side, how cool is that!!!!!! LOL. I believe this movie will be the fast and the furious of action movies!!!!!
I dont think its going to be that great. It looks way to fake to be any good. If any of you guys go share with the rest of us what you thought of the movie. So if its no good we dont waste time and money.
