Spielberg Botched Ferris- Wheel Scene
Of Spielberg’s “1941,” Jeff Wells rightly points out: ‘There’s no way the ocean is deep enough for a 100-foot-tall ferris wheel to completely disappear — to just sink into the depths like the Titanic. Right off Pacific Ocean Park the ocean depth would be…what, 30 or 40 feet? If that? All Spielberg had to do was show the ferris wheel hitting bottom and then tipping over to the side.’
