: Sometimes, when I watch action movies, whenever people get shot or killed, blood goes on the lense for a brief period of time. Is that intentional? Here are some cases where I noticed:

: Saving Private Ryan, Omaha Beach battle sequence
: Braveheart, another battle sequence
: and good ol' Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, when Indy shoots three Nazi's with one bullet (a big surprise there)

I think the blood is intentional. In Saving Private Ryan, it creates more of a "you are there" ambience, as with other movies. As for LC, I'm not fully sure. It may have splattered on the camera by mistake, but they later choose to keep it in. I guess it just adds to the scene, either way.
