    Arthur Chu Retweeted One Perfect HEADshot

    Honestly, everyone's been obsessed with making movie fights look "gritty and realistic" for way too long This fight scene is incredibly obviously fake if you watch it through a "realism" lens But as a fan of pro wrestling would say, shut the fuck up nerdhttps://twitter.com/HeadExposure/status/1216642964115591168 …

    One Perfect HEADshot @HeadExposure
    Hollywood fights are often shot by several cameramen catching action as best they can. Scenes are assembled by alternating long shots w/ closer ones. In HK, no camera position is repeated. Here each image is composed around a specific action and other actions require other setups pic.twitter.com/aUk630kArd

        Having the actors time out and choreograph their actions so you get "one cool move per shot" is of course absolutely nothing like what real fights look like That's why real fights are not entertaining and should be discouraged by society through laws and education

        Replying to @arthur_affect

        Honestly I don't think most of the people complaining even want "realism" in fights, it's just an easy concept to reach for to contrast with fight scenes they don't like. But dig into the complaints and what they're unhappy with is lack of threat and lack of consequences.

        Replying to @ComradeGorbash @arthur_affect

        The trend in Western cinema is to show the combatants getting the shit beaten out of them "realistically," but lots of HK cinema gets to the same place by a different route. Constant escalation to present threat, and clear narrative consequences stemming from the fight.

        Spatial and movement coherence is much more important than "realism," imo. The obsession with "realism" in film is overrated in general, and often gets in the way of better story/performance/drama.

        Honestly why no one should give me an action movie because it’d be grounded except for when the action kicks in. Then that’s when the anime bullshit would start. And no reason or explanation given
