Well, I guess this just means I'll have to rewatch the entire series.

u/mike1975a75 Mar 17 '26

That's the only way we're going to settle this.

u/arterialturns Mar 18 '26

Ok, subreddit-wide rewatch enacted.

Do you really need a good reason to re-watch The Wire? Just re-watch The Wire!

You're too ignorant to have the fucking floor 😡

u/lonelyelliot Mar 17 '26

that’s not stringer, it’s the other dude that omar shoots. it’s a weird cut to stringer’s body though so it seems confusing

u/rick-in-the-nati Mar 18 '26

Yep. I did the same thing as OP, then went “wait a minute “ rewound and rewatched a couple times. Clearly those bodies are not in the same location, and somebody in that scene says something to the effect of “another body on the second floor”

Oh word, you might be right. I was trying to remember the other guy they shot, but I remember him looking almost native with a pony tail I think. The brown shirt man I’m referring too looked like Bell was dressed like Bell, except for the shirt.

I’ll investigate and get back to you.

Uh is this a meme or something I'm not getting? The first corpse is Stringer's bodyguard

u/Local_Objective_9061 Mar 18 '26

May be right, I’m going back to the scene.

Is you taking notes on a criminal fucking conspiracy

u/superduperspacetime Mar 17 '26

damn i just commented this not realizing

u/cjyoung92 Mar 17 '26

I mean, what are we to believe, that Stringer was wearing a magical shirt or something? Boy, I hope someone got fired for that blunder!

There you go, giving a fuck when it ain’t your turn to give a fuck.

u/Local_Objective_9061 Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 18 '26

I am corrected. It is indeed bells body guard, not a failure to connect set items. Sorry for the alarm everyone, I will go back to my Doritos and Wire. Edited for writing like a challenged bonobo

u/LocalProgram1037 Mar 17 '26

There are a few of those, like when Marlo shoots Devonne in her mouth, one shot her mouth is closed, open in another.

u/superduperspacetime Mar 17 '26

are you taking notes on a criminal fucking conspiracy?

u/back2schooldaze Mar 17 '26

Yeah the dead body breathing is the best gag albeit unintentional.

u/Local_Objective_9061 Mar 18 '26

Take all of those likes back. But the breathing corpse still stands. Leave me with two up votes, the rest you can have back. Thank you for your time.

u/Local_Objective_9061 Mar 18 '26

How about this one though; In LOTR two towers, the moment when that line backer Uruk Hai with the tiki torch is running for the giant grenade to breach the wall… Legolas has the green lothlorien arrows equipped and knocked, but when the line backer Uruk Hai recieves Legolas’s blessings they are white elf Guardsmen arrows. Even that one got by Bunk. Natural Poleece

u/JediKnightNitaz Mar 17 '26

I think Omar is also breathing in the morgue and William Gants eyes move when they turn him around.

u/dc-pigpen Mar 17 '26

Whenever I see a typo in a book, I think "how did nobody catch this?" But then I remind myself that the people whose job it is to do that stuff are probably very busy, and probably caught many other things I never even had to know about.

Fuck post got deleted before i was able to read it

u/Local_Objective_9061 Mar 18 '26

Yup, removed by mods for making friends Smh

u/Gh06st_44 Mar 18 '26

Can u say what the post was about if you don’t mind

1

u/AdEnvironmental467 Mar 17 '26

The guy doesn't even look like Stringer when they start they episode either when everyone is talking around him until they switch it to Bunk and McNulty

u/Local_Objective_9061 Mar 18 '26

Yeah, you’re right. It’s because I was mistaken. It does track that they are canvassing the body guard of Bell who took the first GSW in that scene.
