I dare you to name a better superhero action sequence than the hallway fight in Daredevil episode two.
>>
>>78533753
It never seems all that great to me if I watch it by itself.
The build up before the fight is crucial.
With it it's amazing however.

Which is clearly an homage to Oldboy.

A classic

>>78533753

Arrow/Deathstroke battle in the season finale. Also that scene from "the Undertaking" when the parachutes in and beats the shit out of the guys in the hallway.

Not better but certainly comparable.

I can't begin to tell you how much I love that scene. Every moment he isn't directly engaging with a thug, he's leaning against a wall nursing his wound. It's fucking great.

It's among the GOATs. Couple others in the series as well.

I'd put Superman v the Khryptonians and Zod up there

I just wanna see The Raid guy tackle capeshit and show em how it's done. Imagine him being able to use powers, an arsenal, etc.

Soothe your udders gorrillanon, It's not a one-shot scene, it's just a great fight scene.

I think the elevator brawl in Winter Soldier is pretty fucking amazing, and it's a load of quick, smart camera work.

I actually thought The Raid guy was directing Rogue One, but unfortunately it's some other Welsh director.

>>78533753
It's a pretty shit fight scene in the big scheme of things. Most everything happens off camera. The parts you do see on camera are people stumbling, looking tired, etc. Even the most generic action shows/movies where... you know... you actually see the action tops it despite all the gype it gets.

Yes, you can.

What's better for superhero fights? Realistic and gritty, ala Daredevil, or over the top spectacle, ala Man of Steel?

>>78534789
Happy medium. Good choreography and a sense of telling a story through combat, combined with a sense of spectacle. I hate to be a weeb, but I think Japan is the only country really filming quality super-battles these days. They have a lot more of a headstart, both in terms of using special FX and structured combat.

Both can be good for different types of heroes.

MoS' fights are lacking as narratives, though, despite being technically amazing. Clark never really feels like he's in any particular danger of losing, he never seems tired or hurt, and there's never anything more interesting going on than 'punch harder faster stronger'. It LOOKS really cool but it has very little depth. Spectacle can be great, but there has to be more than that.

There's so much more you could do with a bunch of insanely strong/fast superhumans than that. I remember one of the animated movies having a great fight between Supergirl and Darkseid where she uses her flight and strength in a really cool way.

C'mon Tom.

Season 3 wasn't that bad. There were some great fights. I liked the bit where he caught Komodo's arrow, the Roy/Canary team up, and of course the boxing glove arrow.

S4 had a really good fight a couple episodes ago when Speedy fought Andy in the elevator.

Not that anon but they're easily, easily better. Yeah, they're campy, silly, etc, but they're teeming with energy, life, a pulse. Not ashamed of being capeshit, and competently directed.

Never really got into the over the top fight scenes, they always feel boring to me. Objectively I know MoS had really good fight scenes, but I just can't get excited about superpowered being getting punched into buildings by another superpowered being. Nothing interesting there in my opinion.

Street level like Daredevil or Winter Soldier is what I like. I really hope we'll get some great Bats fight scenes in BvS, Nolan really disappointed me when it comes to this aspect.

I really don't understand what the big deal is. It's not even very good. Fuck, even Arrow has better action scenes.

A concern I have fight-wise for BvS is that a good Batman fight and a good Superman fight would need different scales and focuses and I'm unsure if they'll be able to do both kinds well.

Arrow's full of those. It's like people are shouting numbers with the crouches. There are never close calls, they always duck before the kick even begins. That and the power-ranger flailing. Daredevil's hallway fight also had a fair bit of that, but the sound editing was so on point it didn't register, and people stayed on the ground squirming, not flailing.

Season 3 was that bad. And it never got as good sans a few notable exceptions.
>>
>>78534499
This fight scene was perfectly done.

Every move served a purpose drove the narrative of the fight, lead to the climax AND underscored the theme.

Bane Broke the Bat on every level.

The very first thing he does is call him outside at Wayne, which mean from the get go he broke Batman's #1 weapon, his identity, the mystery and horror of the boogieman, strike one.

So Bruce goes right for the physical. Remember Bruce is only a man, so his fighting style is based on minimizing contact, scare em, hit em once or twice, go back to the shadows, All out brawling is the antithesis of his combat, so Bruce throws his knock outs, but Bane can't feel it. strike 2

Then we see Bane bring out the psychology, remember, Bane is a batman mirror, he is also ex LOS and uses there tactics, so HIS theatrics and deception are his operatic dialogue. He plays up Bruce lack ing the physical capability to follow through as Batman. After a few blows, Bruce gives into anger and just wails, strike 3.

Already Bane has broken the Tactical, Physical and Psychological effectiveness of Batman and this is in less than a minute.

Bane throws Bruce of and instead of a badass cool cape descent, he just flaps and falls on his knees, Bane calmly and sleekly rapples down the chain and then procesed to dominate the fight, taking the blows while Bruce burns himself out.

Notice once we descnd the lighting goes dim and it isn't the linear clash of the Bridge, this isn't a duel, it's an asswhoopin

The moment batmab is on the stairs it's done, he is no longer the predator, he is the victim, he crawls up the stairs like a battered housewife and we get a calm cold horror movie shot of Banes feet as he aproaches him.

Batman makes a desperate flail, gets fucked, and then resorts to his gadgets. which fail.

Bane is hip to the gimmick, it's like a magic trick being done once you know the secret. Strike 3.
>>
>>78537967
We get into Banes backstory, mirroring bruce, and another humiliating shot of Bruce hung up with his feet trailing like a scolded puppy. Note Bane gets angry when Bruce says he was dumped, the first and only time in this fight, showing his emotional weakness in the midst of his persona.

Bane does his theatrical flourish as Destiny (remember Batman is a story about performance) Batman lunges like a schoolyard kid and after being dominated (remember Batman is a "snipe" type, Bane just tanking his blows just trashes him.)
Bruce once again kneeling in desperation and weakness, cuts the lights, and Bane ruins him while using his fake backstory (theatricality and deception) strike 5.
Bane then takes Bruce's company, and all his weapons and tech. strike 6.

Bane has systematically decimated, every skill, tactic,weapon and philosophy that made up Batman, something built over two entire films broken in less time than it takes to make a hotpocket.

Batman is no more, the empty shell lashes out, and is finally put down.

He wondered what would break first? His spirit or his body?

We end with the devasted heap that was once Batman unceremoniously dragged off.

Bane has broken the Bat.


Too many fight scenes focus just on looking good, lacking a flow and progression. Even fewer key in the characteristics of those fighting in such a holistic manner.

This film was very shoddy, but this scene is it's crowing moment, the entire thesis of it's form in one Brutal, ugly five minute show case.

Have you ever actually seen a fucking fight? And I'm not talking about fucking retard movie shit.
Real fights are not so fast that you can't track them and the camera has to cut constantly to keep out. People are relatively pretty slow.
And it's VERY easy to knock someone out. A single good hit to the jaw can take someone down.
Out of all the capeshit so far, Daredevil is the closest to realism they've gotten.

That's because the scene isn't about the action. It's the struggle. Matt's been broken and beaten and he's bleeding and weak, but he still goes in because there's someone to save. The scene isn't great because it's flashy, it's great because it epitomizes Matt.

Fuck battlefags.

this is why I dont worry for the Batman action scenes in BvS, Im excited to see Snyder's vision in bringing the Bat's brutal fighting style to the big screen.

Quicksilver in DOFP

shite movie but the scene was great

>I dare you to name a better superhero action sequence than the hallway fight in Daredevil episode two.
Pretty much every fight in Watchmen.

While I liked the Daredevil fight, it really got you geared up for more cool fights that NEVER HAPPENED. Instead it's just stupid gimp ninjas and lame fights.

As far as Nolan directed Batflicks go? Yeah. Easily the weakest aspect of his Bat films. Hoping that Affleck directed Batflick doesn't have the same issue.

there's a reason real fights aren't as popular a spectator sport than performance arts like wrestling and boxing

I don't care if they are realistic or not so long as they are well choreographed and most importantly I CAN ACTUALLY SEE WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!

If it's one thing i hate it's quick cuts during fight scenes. If you watch the making of Batman Begins when he is taking on a group of League of Shadows mooks, it actually looks a lot better than it did in the final movie when it was edited and chopped to fucking hell. Nolan seems to get this now though as the Hallway fight in Inception is better than the fights in his Bat trilogy by far. Still has a way to go but a lot better.

Marvel Lego would be such a big thing if wasn't lego, just a Marvel sandbox with nice, simple textures that'll age well.
>>
>>78548474
The actors were already trying to sell it by reacting, breathing heavily & not staying down.
if the actual moves are still too slow to take the intended impact seriously and sometimes comes off as joke unfortunately, is the complaint valid?

Seriously that is how i expect Superman ( and other super powered beings for that matter) to fight. It's not really that different from if you watch JLU or Superman cartoons. But people were all like "hurrrr itz like DBZ" how the fuck do these people expect it to look when Supes gets in a brawl with other godlike beings exactly? I think people shit on it mostly because Snyder hate.

>>78543931
Also the Ozy vs Comedian fight at the beginning.
>>
>>78533753
>was
What I loved about the fights here was the attention to detail.
Wounds and cuts remain where they are, consistently.
Even episodes later a stitch will still be in the exact same place where you saw the cut got made.

There's a little bit of bullshit with the meditation stuff, but that's just there to not keep him out of combat for four months after each fight.

I love that they keep track of stuff like that. It really helps sell the danger. Despite him kung-fu kicking dozens of criminals, you still feel like a single bullet, even a single knife, could still kill him.

>>78548745
Fast can be pulled off well, but it's usually not.
That's why I hate the choreography on the first seasons Arrow. It's either too fast to have any impact or simply doesn't have any impact at all.

yep

fuck yeah!


>I think people shit on it mostly because Snyder hate.

The Snyder agenda is really the most moronic thing I've ever witnessed, the guy is honestly an above average film maker ( on his way to being elite if he pulls this and Justice league off ) who likes to tell good stories beyond the superficial crap that marvel likes to shit out ( thor2, IM2, ) and yet all he gets is hate from fuckers that wouldnt know two shits on how to build a coherent narrative let alone a multilayered story featuring a complex gallery of characters that challenges the viewer to explore the concept of superhero stories beyond good and evil. Hence the hate on man of steel.

tl:dr , most people just like watching superficial dumb shit.

My favourite is Ant-Man vs. Yellowjacket at the end of the movie

It encapsulated the main beats of the movie in a single scene and it was just tons of fun.

>>78534789
>Man of Steel?
Jej. Unrealistic are fine but at least mention a good one. I think capeshit is too saturated in cinema at the moment. For this reason alone the DD was miles above.
Without saturation I'm not sure how it would pan out. DD is a solid fucking action scene regardless and super fights are really cape only (with a few exceptions) so even then DD wins.

>People jerk off to long takes too much
Long takes are God. It's not like editing is easy, that's true, it's a skill. Certainly mediocre editing is better than a mediocre long take.

Even so the best long take however will always reign supreme over all else.
>>
>>78534858
Most of the Japanese live action films have shit fight choreography
>>
>>78550969
Not particularly, Jackie Chan's famous 20 minute fight scene from Drunken Master 2 is easily one of the best fight scenes ever and it's not a long take and making it a long take wouldn't have improved it one bit.
>>
>>78533753
any fight in Man of Steel
>>
>>78533753
That scene was fucking great. Pretty much all the fighting in Daredevil was great but I don't think they ever topped that.
The fight with the Japanese dude towards the end of the season was pretty good too.

>>78549758

Which one? The fight in the briefcase or the fight in Cassie's room?

I recently saw Ant-Man with my parents and my mom was cracking up during the fight on top of the toy trains because my brothers and I were both huge into Thomas the Tank Engine when we were really young and had one of those tracks set up in our room.
>>
>>78548819

You can really see how Batman would be super fucking paranoid of Superman after witnessing that level of destruction from the Superman vs. Zod fight.
>>
>>78535888

Oh shit yeah that episode was great.
>>
>fucking keysi
What was Nolan thinking?
It's not effective and it doesn't look good on screen for either brutal down-to-earth or flashy fight scenes. It's a complete joke of a martial art in every way.
>>
>>78536572
2:58 looks so damn cool
>>
>>78557331
Keysi is shitty, but I thought Jack Reacher did a pretty good job with it.

I started watching this thinking "i'm not really sure about the casting on matt I don't like him" but man he literally fucked me into submission. Not only is he a great fucking actor , but his stunt double is god incarnate. I just hope season 2 isn't influenced by Jessica Jones since I didn't really like that one
>>
I still enjoy the Hulk vs Blonksi fight from TIH. Makes me want a World War Hulk movie just to see Cap go all out against intelligent Hulk

>>78546697
WHERE WERE THE OTHER DRUGS GOING

>>78561409
I don't know have you rewatched it lately? The CGI and non CGI shots are really poorly edited together. There's a lot of "punching at something off screen" moments.
>>
>>78561897
the throat cancer needs to end with these kinds of heroes.

>>78533753
It isn't even the best one in the show. The first fight scene by the docks is miles better.

The top tier fight scene in movies, though, is this.
>>
>>78563557
Name of the video game?
>>
>>78533753
I liked that scene, but I think I was spoiled with the quality of Oldboy's corridor fight.

I think my most memorable superhero fights are the uncut Spider-Man 2 fight between Spidey and Doc Ock, WS vs Cap in the second Cap movie, and Hulk vs Abomination.

Nothing compares to this fight though, I'm pretty sure it's my favorite fight scene of all time:

What bothers me is that they gave loads of those mooks guns, and show them running in to go to hand-to-hand combat. With guns. They could've just stood back and shot them.

Why give them guns if all it does in this scene is make them look fucking stupid? This would've been pretty good otherwise
>>
>>78564174
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJ5oaBWYzPk

I forgot about that fight! The thing I love about Jackie Chan fights is that they're often not only skillfully done, but they're cinematic too. There's drama and personality along with the fighting.

The final MoS fight was epic and shit was getting wrecked left and right but I didn't really get invested into the epicness of it. It's like being 5 years old and smashing your action figures together making explosion sounds.

>Clark never really feels like he's in any particular danger of losing
Not the point, its about how long it takes him to win and how much destruction takes place before he can and what it will cost him to win.
>he never seems tired or hurt
No their is at least 3 times he looks exhausted and struggles to stand up again.

Him doing a lot of his own stunts helps with it. Jackie Chan is always a real pleasure to watch in action scenes since you never have to angle the camera to hide his face.
