the food cart in the hallway nonsense, is just that....nonsense...distraction tactic,
they are just trying to make everybody believe paddock planned this out very well, i don't believe there was a camera on a food cart, i dont believe there was a camera on the peep hole, i dont believe there was a camera in the stair well....if there was, SHOW THEM!!
also, if your going to commit suicide in the hotel room after the shooting, you wouldn't care what was going on outside of the room,
paddock is lee harvey oswald 2.0
if paddock is dead (which i still am skeptical of) then he was dead in the room well before the shooting even started,
what TIME did paddock return to his room for the last time? this has never been proven or released, and its something that should be EASY TO DETERMINE....i am very familliar with the hotels in vegas and MB, i understand that there are no cameras in the hallways themselves, but there ARE CAMERAS in the elevator lobby, and in the elevators.....it should be easy to tell the last TIME padddock return to his room....so what time was it?
one of my biggest questions is still the glass windows, glass used in hotel rooms is hurricane proof, in the unlikely event a window DOES BREAK, it is designed to SHATTER, pieces would never fall out, it is two window panes with a layer of film in between them,....it would never break of in larger pieces like it is shown, and the ENTIRE GLASS PANE would be shattered.....but its not!!!
those glass panes were tampered with by somebody ahead of time, or replaced with different/weaker panes of glass,
watch the first 5 mins or so of this video and you will see what im talking about........
and we must not forget the vacuum hose thing
ok so we got a senior citizen
who is a schlep physically green in color old flabby who sits in the dark playing video games
who is supposedly holding a 45 foot long vacuuum hose to his face while firing a machine gun with the other hand
its laughable!!
all this cra@ is why they needed to wait to get up there so the set could be dressed
I fear the people doing the set design might have been on heroin ha !!
let us not forget the ruckus they were making after they breeched you can clearly hear them picking machine guns up and tossing em back on the floor -- messing with a crime scene - not to mention all the people walking all over the crime scene
ya got a major crime scene and they have a ton of people running all over the room playing with stuff ( only reason to destroy a crime scene is a knowledge that no real investigation is going to happen )
its a sit com
I agree the windows -- a baby hammer is gonna break a huge pane of glass they may have shot it out but the set design of nicely placing a baby hammer on the set makes no sense --nothing worse than poor set design on a stage !!!
know nothing about guns but shiney bullets sprinkled nicely atop a small pile of glass is also a ridiculous set!
On our set the curtain pulled open ( done by cops playing around on the set ) makes zero sense either
so lets make this up like a time lapse video speeded up we got an old man running back and forth between two rooms holding a vacuum face mask firing machine guns peeping out a pulled back curtain checking cameras through little peep holes and monitoring a laptop computer in the other room while firing what a thousand shots in a smoke filled room that is hot with fire alarm strobes lights blinking blinding you shooting through walls while managing not to trip over machine guns scattered all over the floor or tripping on the baby hammer on the floor right near the window who was wearing beach sandals while locking himself out of the other room he spent all this time knocking out gigantic window panes on a skyscraper while doing the physical exercise regime that a 22 year old fit person would have trouble with after being up all night and driving a flying all over the state (fatigue) who has asthma and can be inhaling smoke dressed in a hot shirt and long pants who for some reason does not get overheated from the raging heat in the room who manages to do ALL of this in a space of 12 minutes - whew I am exhausted from the script I just wrote !!
I don't know does a laptop work with no hard drive?
The area is busy anyone heard of ( there is gravity on the planet!) anyone being injured on the ground from massive windows being shattered from the 32 floor on ground level?
Supposedly the floor was occupied (not) and one is in their room and hears massive banging a huge panes of glass being smashed to smithereens not give the front desk a ringy dingy and let them know it sounds like a plane might have just flown into the hotel !!
Our set design becomes even more flat out stupid in the stairway where a little hinge thing that my dog could break if she pushed on the door supposedly is gonna keep out a bunch of strong SWAT dudes from opening the door in the stairwell ? It looks like something one might buy to secure a vitamin case !
Our set designer further messes up logic in that wood chips and door particulates from the breach in several instances is under things that it they should be atop of -- flying wood chips can not get under machine guns etc etc
in addition our set designer balances a machine gun nicely atop of our deceased body that just blew his brains out. Somehow this machine gun magically stays standing up all pretty like on a human being flown backwards as his body falls to the ground!
Our set crew should have a least found used casings to place all nicely around our victims head. How on earth are there supposedly what 9 casing shells all around his head -- so he missed his mouth 8 times before getting a bullet in his head?
Fake blood does not cost that much -- some drops of bloops should be on our nicely arranged pile of shiney shells around a head that was just blown out.
Somewhere in our story we must understand why our main character made a nice little bed (away from the windows) for his machine guns ( it does make sense if your showing them to a potential buyer)
our script is further flawed by our character who is supposed to , hypothetically be running back and forth for out camera peephole -- why does our character place a giant machine gun all on a tripod which could easily trip him on his mad dash from all over the room
why did our set designer place machine guns all over the place away from the two windows?
Why did our character leave out all his ID in plain view? Why would our character have his wives stuff all nicely laid out as well?
Food stinks as it ages -- there was a heck a lot of plates for one person supposedly. The volume makes more sense if there were a group of people in the room . We have to remember in our script we have him going out to eat a lot -- so the need for endless room service becomes even more crazy. Unless of course, we have people in our room who cant go out and be seen in public -- for several days - on CCTV.
"Paddock" - A Dreary Evening of Theatre- Worse Than The Negative Buzz Already Mounting"
Oct 1 - By Isaac Incredulous. Tickets $195 -$89
Mandalay Bay - The Sherbert Room
* One star - My editor prohibits no stars!
It has often been said that there is nothing worse than horrid theatre. "Paddock " takes that reality to depths not seen on the strip since "Lombardo" opened and closed after 8 performances last season .
Our main character defies the physical capabilities of our lead. Other characters often behave in ways that make no sense. If the playwrights intended for Act Two to function in somewhat of a thriller aspect, it fails miserably.
Supporting cast fail to communicate the urgency of the crisis at hand. Several scenes bog the shows running time into tortuous territory.
For example there is a throw away scene in ACt 2 ( other guest room ). If the scene was intended to provide some comic relief it failed in that domain as well. Several patrons excited at this point.
For those of us who endured until final curtain , "Paddocks"
denouement was totally non existent - the only reason that failure was , by curtain, meaningless is that most if us checked out well before Act 1 wrapped up.
Miss this show - a poorly conceived, executed and excruciating evening of theatre.
