We can't be seen to be citing 2003 sources and then putting in what may (or may not) be 2021 figures compiled from nobody-knows-where. Our reliability is a function of the sources we cite, and our compliance with those sources. This is an encyclopedia, and our job is to report "the main points" reliably. This does not deny or belittle any later earnings, but they are not the point here - this is not a news site, reporting every small change day-to-day nor a data site, reporting whole data streams for years on end. We are therefore stating the gross takings as they were in that year, when the film obviously caused a box office sensation.
The data for the film's gross takings are cited to the 2003 version of Box Office Mojo, which I take it is a reliable source. Guys, something is going very wrong here. – wallyfromdilbert ( talk) 19:07, 26 April 2020 (UTC)ĭata conflicting with cited sources Content should be sourced directly to reliable secondary sources. Mentioned crossbow linked on the page is certainly not the repeating crossbow as said crossbow comes with a box magazine that cocked/spanned by an overhand lever rather than an underhand lever.Ģ601:280:5B7F:85C4:7535:BB37:1CF6:3F55 ( talk) 20:25, 19 April 2020 (UTC) This type of analysis is original research. The video is in the link below:Ĭlosest relative to said self-spanning crossbow that is documented on wikipedia is the rapid fire crossbow (Balestra veloce) by Leonardo Da Vinci from the Codex Atlanticus written between 1478 to 1519.
Said self-spanning crossbow was created by an Austrian professional crossbow designer, Andreas Bichler, on his personal Youtube channel. Said Codex (in digital format) is on public view at Krakow's Jagiellonian Library in the following link with the images of the crossbow being on pages 17 and 27 (out of 82):Īdditionally, further proof is in the video demonstration of a reconstruction of the said crossbow with displayed images of the Manuscript pages at time mark 0:30 (out of 2:46). In the Behind the Scenes clips, the crossbow blueprint images displayed from the unnamed 15th Century manuscript (which were displayed while John Howe was talking about the special crossbow that was build) are an exact match to the images of the self-spanning crossbow blueprints in the Codex Löffelholtz (written in 1505 AD by Martin Löffelholtz).
