“Looks like we need to build some kind of lab set. Send someone out for a hundred white coats while you’re at it.”
This is long overdue. Believe it or not, I myself have actually seen hapless actor’s eyes struck with foreign matter in those films. Sometimes more than once! The safety conditions are truly appalling. About time I say!
