Maybe to prevent things like this :

(i found a trick that skip this waiting by offscreen the explosion, but uselessl until last boss, and it slower than actual sub).

Glitches and tricks
- Event skipping : By jumping at a certain (tight) X position you can cancel the screen lock that trigger the event. I empty shot in the air to let you guys know when it used.
- Pineapple cap glitch : in stage 20, jump on the machine gun then rejump (after throwing pine).
- Instant trolley max speed : press down for two frames before landing in.
Mission 1 The Front Line
Skip a shopfilter.

Crash then Drop Pack is faster than complete slugflyer part.
Mission 3 Dire Straits
Sunk the submarine to reach mission 5.
There is one specific x/y position to reach in order to get incomplete screen faster (not necessary to say that i found it by pure luck).
Mission 5 Battlefield Bridge
Nothing here, just keep max speed as long as possible.

Miss a shot, it just pass near the left ear of a soldier. I don't even try to tasediting it cause all my past try change the behavior somewhere later.

Special Thanks :
lapogne36 as usual and fsvgm777 for the encode
Memory: Not sure where you got the 512/576 numbers from but jumping is definitely faster despite the long landing lag, so this appears to be well optimized.
I definitely liked the movie, the action was fast paced despite a couple of autoscrollers and the audience liked it too.
