      and he is wrong about over penetration in the LotR scene. Penetration period is unrealistic in that circumstance let alone over penetration. Bows will not shoot through plate + mail + gambeson. The plate on the front of the 1st guy would have stopped that arrow.

      Completely agree! It's so nice to see something like this rather than, 'oh that's not realistic blah blah' You can tell he has passion for archery and it wouldn't matter what movie clip he was watching, he'd be into it if it had archery. I also like that he's putting out more information about the different sights and ranges etc.

Actually, modern archers are a bit wimpy compared to their ancient counterparts, who used bows up to as much as 150lbs draw weight.

    I'm definitely not an expert, but there's something about holding a bow and using one that just MAKES you confident. You can feel the power you hold in your hand, and if you're using real arrows, those are lethal weapons. You're wielding a weapon, whether it's for hunting or target practice, and the bow doesn't let you forget that.

      @KillahMate 4 роки тому +63

      Since they're all completely unreal, I think animated movies often feel an additional pressure to make things 'realistic', because that helps viewers suspend disbelief. Also, since the characters are animated the animators _can_ make them real experts. Like, you don't need to teach an actress to be a so-so archer to play Merida - you can animate her to be a good archer with excellent form on every shot.

    • @LifeUntilLove
      @LifeUntilLove 4 роки тому +40

      In many ways, it is much easier to be accurate in animation. For a movie like Brave, they can bring in some expert archers and draw based on them. You don't have to train any actor to pretend to be an expert, so the level of skill you can have the character display is higher and more faithful.

Probably quite a skewed audience but I have a lot of friends who were also inspired by LOTR to take up archery (also girls!)

    "You can get good at shooting a crossbow in 5 minutes"
    So true. There's a reason they started more or less replacing bows as the default ranged infantry weapon in the later medieval period.
    Proper archers took months or even years to train, and they had to be pretty athletic to withstand the strain it put on them.
    Meanwhile any shmuck by comparison could make for a decent crossbowman with a few weeks of training.

      @Cegesh It really depends on poundage. I'm a woman with a slight build (meaning, no real muscle mass worth speaking of). I've practiced archery for years, and never had trouble with my bow. It's not a 70lbs hunting bow monster, and I wouldn't even dream of drawing that back. Most of the pulling isn't with the arms, it's with the shoulders, and that makes it much easier. I can hold my shot for up to 10 seconds (roughly), which is plenty of time to aim, secure, and release. And that's recurve, where the pull is constant. As I understand it, maintaining a shot with a compound bow is even easier because of the pulley system reducing the pull once it's drawn all the way out.
