That's not slapstick. That's a paddlin'. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.180.30.163 ( talk) 21:34, 8 June 2020 (UTC) reply

Where did this list of "five main conventions" come from, exactly?

"Editing to turn a situation more unrealistic." "Zooms to confuse the audience." "Off screen use of sounds for impossible stunts and tension for audience."

I never heard of any of these three before, and it wouldn't apply to a lot of classic slapstick like Buster Keaton. 207.161.103.105 ( talk) 05:21, 15 March 2010 (UTC) reply
