(AP) -- POPLAR BLUFF, Mo. (AP) -- Police in the southeast Missouri town of Poplar Bluff are searching for a man suspected in two sexual assaults.

Police say the 30-year-old suspect is from Poplar Bluff and was out of jail on bond on charges of kidnapping, forcible rape, forcible sodomy and robbery from a September incident.

The man is now accused of forcing a 28-year-old Scott City woman at gunpoint to drive to Poplar Bluff on Saturday. She says she was held against her will and sodomized.

A 14-year-old girl told police Monday that the same man sexually assaulted her.

That being said, there is also a fine line with that technology that movie makers are still fleshing out; still trying to figure out what is too much and what is not enough. For instance, in "Man of Steel" the action scenes are so frantic and epic, much of what is happening is lost. Many of the scenes moved so quickly, my mind was still trying to process one camera angle, when it darted to another and smothered it with a whole other event. I would also like to make one very important suggestion to future moviemakers who are filming in 3D; shaky cam and 3D don’t mix.
