Humans don't either. That's just I'm video games. While making precision shots you generally just control your breathing and fire on the exhale. Then when shooting normally you really don't need to do anything with your breath tbh.

I'm starting to realize why stormtroopers are such horrible shots.

They're not. They just occasional get orders like "Allow them to escape so that we can track them." Anyone who seriously believes that probably fell asleep during the opening crawl of A New Hope.

That said, Disney has gone pretty damn hard on that joke.

You’re supposed to fire during your natural respiratory pause in between breaths. You don’t hold your breath, this isn’t call of duty lol

Robert Patrick, of T1000 fame, practiced shooting guns without blinking or closing his eyes in any way for Terminator 2 because "Machines don't flinch."

Wow as if I couldn't love him any more.

Arnold was iconic in T2, but Robert Patrick was pretty freaking amazing as the T1000. I don't think the movie would be the same without him.

I believe he also practiced so much that he could operate the guns without looking because "why would a machine need to look?"

I saw somewhere that in order to seem more robotic in his scenes he did not turn his head to look, he just kind of shifted his eyes in that direction.

How can they hold something they don't have? Think before you post.
