While he did make a flourish with his claws before scratching Judy, complete with a [[AudibleSharpness \"weapon being drawn\" sound effect]], I just frame-stepped through that scene to double-check an and sure enough he clearly had his claws out for the entire scene, even before he made a show of \"drawing his weapon\".
Now that I think of it, it\'s sort of a case of FridgeBrilliance that the scratches on her face weren\'t that severe, since even though Gideon was trying to use claws as a symbol of predator power, canids actually have relatively dull claws that are more suited to digging than to scratching. The actual natural weapon of canids would be their teeth and jaws, but Gideon wasn\'t quite psycho enough to use \'\'them\'\' on her.
Recently we\'ve been finding a lot of examples of artistic license or other unrealistic elements that we\'d missed (or willfully ignored) for a long time, but I don\'t think this is one of them.
Well, no, that\'s not quite right, as the scene is most definitely an example of \'\'another\'\' unrealistic trope: AudibleSharpness.
That trope is so pervasive that instead of noticing it as something out of place in and of itself, we take for granted that the sound effect means something is literally being unsheathed, and then based on that we fixate on how \'\'that\'\' in turn is unrealistic in light of fox anatomy :p
Do we currently have a listing for AudibleSharpness?

Are you sure they meant to portray him as having retractable claws? I think something ''shallower'' is at play.

Anyway, I do think that scene is definitely an example of AudibleSharpness. Do we have that listed?
