Please oh please hold the camera steady
Anyone else really getting tired of the shaky camera style of filming? I understand that some directors think it gives a sense of realism, but it just doesn't do that for me. That certainly doesn't reproduce the way things look when you are running -- people have a vestibulo-ocular reflex that keeps gaze steady when the body is moving around. A camera doesn't.
I honestly couldn't follow the action in many of the scenes because of the shaky camera nonsense. I nearly turned off the movie several times for this reason alone.
When I watch a film I would like to *GASP* be able to see what is happening! I don't want to see what a poorly-trained cameraman might film if he forgot to stop filming while running in a blind panic.
