@@moyaxoxo5923 it wouldn't have looked the same reversed. And obviously that's what blocking is for (having the actors in specific places away from the drop spots so the swords won't hit them). They would've had precautions and safety personnel on set, and it wouldn't have gotten approved for them to do if it was really that dangerous. They had everything under control.
each sword that falls is also styled like a famous movie sword/ I spotted three Excaliburs, a Glamdring, and I think Conan's sword from the original movie?
Imagine how much better things would be in the MCU if Lilia's Maestra was around still... WANDA "Because of my grief I shall create this hex and ruin peoples' lives!" MAESTRA "What will this do? This will not help. Find another way" THANOS "The Stones are mine and I shall balance the Universe!" MAESTRA "Silly boy! You cut of half your limbs to balance? Which half? How will you walk?" THE ANCIENT ONE "I cannot see beyond this point so I must give up now" MAESTRA "Oh no, it is dark? I may as well pluck out my eyes then! Idiot! Find a candle then!" We need more no-nonsense, sick-of-your-crap, Sicilian witches in the world.
