James Gunn’s thoughts on the matter came from a discussion on Threads about how much of filmmaking comes after shooting. The director mentioned editing, special effects, and sound as elements that still need to be done when filming is finished.
When it was pointed out that he left reshoots of the list, the director claimed that on his last two movies combined, he only needed one day of additional filming.
James Gunn then explained how he avoids the need for reshoots, with a list of things he does that ensure he doesn’t need to double back on filming.
His list includes overpreparing, not shooting until the script is done, careful casting and hiring of department heads, hiring people who will challenge him, and constantly looking for imperfections while shooting. He then doubled down on his first two points by making his final list entry “1 and 2 again!”
