>2004
>13 years later and Hollywood still hasn't been able to make a fight scene as good as this

Why? Are they just not trying anymore?

batman fighting bane in the underground lair

are you implying this isn't just as good?

HECTOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOR

greek armor and weapons is pure kino, peak of human civilization

Troy was a shit movie for plebs

seriously it was garbage and that fight scene is also garbage

>highly trained by ninjas
>they exchange right crosses

Fuck off.

are YOU?

Just who the fuck thought this 80s special effects style shot was a good idea

youtube.com/watch?v=qXPOl6EjbWg

you threw the wrong side

youtube.com/watch?v=Y8iRTWixgd0

fightkino coming though

The movie was indeed shit, and arguably killed Orlando Bloom's career (he played a simpering coward), but I remember this fight being the only good part of the movie.

Certainly there are better Wolfgang Petersen movies out there, go find one.

>t. capeshit enthusiast

The fight scene was pretty good. But it's nothing like the source material.

..In the actual Illiad Hector gets fucking rekt

>Implying
youtube.com/watch?v=W85mbsD_5_U
wait, isn't that 2004 too?

>that
>good

Kek they aren't even pretending to try and hit each other most of the time.

OP must be a sexist bigot

i hate capeshit, your implication was wrong

kys

Wouldn't be much fun if Achilles just straight up executed him like he did with that big guy4u Boagrius. Hector put up a hell of a fight but it felt like Achilles was toying with him.

it has more cuts than a marvel movie

Hallway scene from the first one and the kitchen scene from this one are better.

But, every fight scene in both movies are pretty good desu.

the raid flicks arent from hollywood

Patty Jenkins. She's a woman therefor I loved it.

They choreograph their moves clear as day. If you think this is good than I feel bad for you.

god that looks terrible

the right cross is an extremely effective punch

youtu.be/CTJlmlZWWHA

the fight in Troy is garbage and so is every period piece fight scene that isn't Rob Roy or The Duelists

bathhouse fight scene in eastern promises

>putting a shootout in a fight thread

Fuck off faggot. Shootouts aren't fights.

lel fuck off with this shit you pretentious hipster cunt

For you

>Shootouts aren't fights
>firefights aren't fights
you are the faggot here

Not if you're a NINJA, jfc wtf

what's your problem dude

meanwhile
>he still can't think of a scene from a hollywood movie that's better

>Jason Statham with a fire hose in a generic silly action movie is more enjoyable than most 200+ million dollar blockbuster action movies

youtube.com/watch?v=LEbh7ixZQ_s

Gets the old noodle firing the neutrons.

Those are some fat fucking fighters. If they keep that up their hearts are going to give in after another minute of that flailing and rolling.

>jump cuts for every swing
This isnt even good

there's nothing wrong with jumpcuts as long as they don't get distracting

>boo hoo, no one can top my scene with sweaty shirtless men in a shitty movie.

Every Transporter movie, every Matrix movie, every action sequence in "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon."

Go away.

YOU SACK OF WINE

being fat actually helps with sword fighting because it's easier for a fatty to maintain their center of gravity

What are some other good "meaty" action kino like these out there?
Hand to hand or with guns. Doesn't matter.

To many directors forgo the ACTION part in action movies and makes everything feel unsatisfying as fuck.

>expecting good fight scenes, when most movies use a modern backdrop with guns at the forefront

They fucking arent. Two guys ducked behind a couch taking potshots at each other isn't a fight.

>transporter
no
>matrix
the first one was before Troy and nobody gives a fuck about the other 2 so, no
>Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
all wuxia is shit. also it's a co-production so it doesn't count anyway

i dont know how anyone can seriously watch this trash

You're also a bigger target and move slower, is your sword-fighting coach trying to fuck you?

>Transporter
opinion thrown into the fucking furnace and the ashes thrown into the fucking sea. there is nothing more generic than transporter action scenes.

>ducked behind a couch
A couch is concealment, not cover, you fag.

>it's a coproduction so it's not a movie
wut

This scene was shit because Achilles is literally invincible, so it's not even a fight.

>implying americans know anything about The Iliad

you simply cannot make this shit up

Well yeah. Achilles was a demigod and Hector got betrayed by the gods

I bet those sissies didn't even get hurt during filming.

youtube.com/watch?v=FrVvRkDxBaM

nice cz

Fight scene in Fury Road with the car door and hose

those knife skills though

>not even 20 posts in someone mentions how the fight isn't like the Illiad

Maybe people do know. Regardless, Troy didn't really ever play into the whole "Achillies is a demigod thing." He might have been a regular guy who was just an amazing warrior in this adaption.

>29 years later and Hollywood still hasn't been able to surpass this fight scene

youtube.com/watch?v=boksnB23cGA

>Troy
DABID

You know they are serious about their fighting scenes when the damn credits is a blooper reel of on set injuries.

youtube.com/watch?v=VMn4X8y_VY8

>thinking ninjas have a magical form of fighting
Ever wonder why Asians never do good in mixed martial arts or why karate has only been heavily used with success by ONE fighter out of countless?

>doesn't mention all of the Ironman fight scenes in the avengers

>all wuxia is shit
Really? Come on, this is good.

youtube.com/watch?v=cSmcbrL-POk

But yeah fair point it's a co-production.

Kill Bill 2 was 2004, 1 was better anyway.

Eastern Promises is a co-production.

I guess the conclusion is that Hollywood is pretty shit at action.

Cartoon fights is in a whole other category.

What about Jet vs Jackie in The Forbidden Kingdom?

>literally does a "RAAAAAAAH I'M ACTING" roar
That on top of everything else makes it obvious what hack ghost directed this movie.

>actual longsword fencing stances
What the fuck is this and where can I get more of it

>all these flick fights


youtu.be/lr1vsU-6vuU

>that rolling

I see I'm not the only one who learned sword fighting from dark souls.

How is she ice skating like that? Is that part of her power set?

That looks so dumb

youtube.com/watch?v=MyVPh3Usrho

>turning on the water pressure
based

so how do ninjas strike mr expert?
do they do karate chops

well desu, the haymakers that batman are throwing dont look that difficult to deal with

Here's your last (you). Stop.

>tfw there aren't any other ancient Greek Kinos

The only good batman.

youtube.com/watch?v=DwEczlafDb4

yeah I'd spark batman easy

It started a nice little imagining of the Illiad with no supernatural elements. But then they decided to apply every Hollywood cliché to it. So they kill Menelaus and Agamemnon, because they're "baddies" and have that cunt Helen get away with Paris. They should've follow the extended mythos and had a scene with a delirious Cassandra foretelling the fall of Menelaus and Agamemnon and Helen being shown for the two-faced bitch she is to escape execution.

There's a reason Bale called his Batman stupid and specifically felt embarrassed having to act against the only memorable performance of the trilogy (Heath Ledger). It's not because he feels any of his Batman scenes are good.

Freaking spectaculor! I liked it when Snyder made Batman look like a videogame!

Fight scene from They Live.

>Asian trash

What about this? youtu.be/dKCnrgVGgYw

Goddamn. Gives me wood every time. I hope Matt Reeves keeps whoever did this coordination.

since when is a bunch of poorly edited quick cuts of poses considered a good fight scene?

This is absolute trash.

Did this actually happen in the movie? People ACTUALLY paid MONEY to VOLUNTARILY see this?!

>steven_seagal_sliding.webm

It's not like you beforehand what the movie is going to be like when you go to it

That's also probably the worst shot of the entire movie, though the one where she participates in trench warfare is also pretty bad

>ultron and terrorists vs slut on iceskates

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troy:_Fall_of_a_City
not for long white boi

NOT

FOR

LONG.

>american """"""""""""action""""""""""""

The trailers made it very obvious how shitty this movie was going to be.
