    As martial artists, its pretty much safe to say that at the very least, around 70% of us started because of fight movies.
    Jeff Pruitt a pro stunt co ordinator, has put up on his youtube channel pretty much everything he managed to film during his time on Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

    It gives you a glimpse (well theres hours of footage) of what the stunt world is like.

    Anyone like to put up their favourite fight scene/back stage shoot?

    Pretty In Pink Moved on MAP 2017 Gold Award

    I watched Never Back Down. Loved it. Also liked the Jason Bourne fight scenes and still put them up there as my favourites. I wish I could fight like that :p

    The first time I ever saw Jet Li was in Kiss of the Dragon. Those last few minutes where he storms the dojo (lol), beats up those two guys in leather jackets and then kills the big baddie were just beautiful to watch.

    But this fight scene from the Fast and Furious series was the last one I watched that I really enjoyed:

    Although this one is, without a doubt, probably my biggest guilty pleasure fight scene:

    :D
     
  5. Bozza Bostik

    Bozza Bostik Antichrist on Button Moon

    It's more realistic for sure. :p

    Best fight scenes for me are in things like Scum, just short and brutal rucks. No messing around, trading punches, flying backward-inverted-spinning-dragon fist nonsense etc. Youtube - Carlin Takes Control and Where's Your Tool for examples.

    For more fantastical stuff I did enjoy (??) the 1 vs a billion in Old Boy.

    That Old Boy scene is easily one of my top 5 fight scenes. The music, choreography, the single take....brilliant

    Also if anyone enjoyed the fencing in the Count of Monte Cristo remake, like I did, the DVD has some behind the scenes rehearsals as well as a lot of the unused choreography. Well worth checking out if you're into historical fencing, they tried to make it fairly authentic
