So I'm watching the Color of Money and I get to the scene with Declan and Eddie. Now people have commented on the fact that Declan shoots the balls directly into the pockets and make fun of it. I saw that part and at first I'm thinking, hmmm maybe he just wasn't good enough to be shooting the cue ball into the balls and still make but then when I see Eddie's shot after Dec's miss, I realize WHY they had him shooting the balls directly into the pockets.
They had a kick 6-9 combo wired and they wanted it to be a continuously shot scene, so they used camera angles and him shooting directly into the pocket to keep the CB and object balls in the correct position for Eddie to shoot that kick combo. Don't know if anyone else had realized this before, but that's why he's shooting the balls directly into the pockets at the start of that scene.
