      I thought that fight scene was lame. I didn't care about the outcome first of all. I just couldn't get over scrawny Tim and his non-chemistry with Zendaya. Also, they didn't show how Paul won the fight. They didn't edit the scene so you could tell what was happening when Paul used the knife he was stabbed with. The choreography was bad in the 80s version but nothing was cooler than when Sting got split open by Paul when he shouted at him without the weirding module.

    The TMNT reminded me of one of my favorite all time movie lines...when the foot guys are trying to hit them with the big axe things and Mikey and Donny (I think) are rolling around in the room avoiding the hits when: "Good thing these guys aren't lumberjacks." "No joke." "The only thing safe in the woods, would be the trees." Also, am I the only person that enjoyed Dune I more than the second one? I felt the second one had a lot of story pacing issues. Some things were drawn out while others were really sped up. I know it's a lot of content to try and fit into the movie, but the first movie felt much better to me narratively. Now...the visuals and cinematics, vfx and sound/music are all top notch as always. Cinematic master pieces are DV's specialty.

A test to see if she'd give into the dark and strike him down or lower the weapon choosing the light.

    Everyone who read the books or that knows the source material well enough for Dune understands that Feyd only posed a real threat to Paul simply because Paul could not see fully what future awaited him when they faced. His prescience could not reveal to him how their fight would go, as he says when he talks to his mother after receiving the water of life, “Our enemies are all around us and in so many futures they prevail. But I do see a way. There is a narrow way through.” As he says this there’s a literal one second clip of him killing Feyd with the close up of his knife plunged into his cousins chest intercut between the frames. That is what Paul was referring to with that line that he couldn’t fully see the fate of their encounter, which makes sense since he and Feyd were genetically two halves of the same coin that was supposed to produce the Kwisatz Haderach if he had been born a girl as planned by the Bene Gesserit. But this is to counter or oppose the first half of the story, where his prescience wasn’t fully unlocked but he could see Jamis’ demise so clearly. It brought a lot of great storytelling to those audience members who were not familiar with the book or were oblivious to this series in general. I’m so glad so many people enjoyed the fight. I loved it and much like many people here, my theater was also dead silent during that entire sequence. The tension was truly palpable. A great fight scene, not for its choreography but for what it evoked in us as spectators and how it held our attention so fully even for those who knew how it would turn out, it is still always so thrilling and enjoyable to watch.

    I just watched Everything Everywhere All At Once for the first time the other day and I really liked it. It was super goofy and weird, but original and fun at the same time.
    Dune Part 2 was what I waited to see my entire life as a Dune novel fan. I have been a Dune fan since I was a kid in the early 90's. My Aunt gave me all of the Dune novels to read when I was growing up. Dune Part 2 with the sandworm scene was like a dream come true, the entire theater rumbled, it felt as if I was on a sandworm for the first time in my life. The final fight between Feyd and Paul.. it felt real. I knew the outcome as a book reader, but it was still incredible seeing Dune the way I've always wanted to see it on the big screen.
    I also remember seeing Apocalypto in theaters. I really enjoyed it for what it was, very intense and action packed.

    The 96% unsubscribed stat is WILD. This is good content and it's consistent. It's not like Marcus made a handful of videos that defied the algorithm and "popped off out of nowhere." You're getting these videos multiple times a week and it's entertaining and informative. Subscribing costs nothing. I could get if it's like 50/50...people just watch one off videos or are too lazy to press subscribe/like buttons in general, but 96% feels ABSURDLY HIGH. Am I wrong?
    Also Marcus if you're reading this comment I have to plug my recommendation for a Cinderella Man (again) just because it's my favorite movie of all time. So many good, high stakes fight sequences to work off of!

      I will say it for myself, as one of the not-subscribed. And the main problem for me is this: subscribing costs unwanted videos appearing in youtube feed and it's not exactly what you would want. It's not the the content is not good - it's that it is the same. I may want to watch one video about good or bad fights at some time, but it does not necessarily mean, that i would want to watch ten of the thing. Or want to see them in my feed for that matter.
      Soo... yeah. That's the main problem for me. I admit, it may not be universal, but i think, there are at least some people with that opinion

      @@MarcusFlemmings Probably. But it does not make much sense to first subscribe, and then manually hide your content from the feed, does it? If you look at it from a point of casual viewer, i mean. To put it simply - why bother, if i can just watch a video, like it, and move ahead, if i don't want top watch another video like that? Or, alternatively, i can watch the whole series of videos, like and again - move elsewhere.
      Or, i can go "hard way", i can watch a video, like, subscribe and then will have to either take the fact, that now these videos would be in my feed, or would have to manually remove them from it. And honestly, what is the point for me to bother with that?
      Again - it's not a jab at your direction, it's more a general problem with how youtube works. Because i, as a viewer, from the youtube logic ether always want to watch everything all the time from the people, i am subscribed to, or i don't, and there is no in-between.

      @@kiriruro I think that you take your UA-cam feed way more seriously than almost anyone else on the platform. Subscribing to a channel that publishes 2 videos a week is not that intrusive. If it's a channel that puts out daily videos and regular community posts, that's different, but you can easily turn off notifications on that case.
      The fact of the matter is, you watched this channel's video, so the algorithm is going to throw you more from this channel at some point given that it's a growing channel with consistent uploads. Unless you go out of your way to tell UA-cam that you don't want to be shown this channel ever lol...but at that point why even waste your time commenting here.

    I know I'm a month behind the times, but I wish that you had covered the Balon vs Ahsoka fight scene from Ahsoka as well. While Rasario's performance is still slow, it comes off much more clearly measured and hesitant, which makes sense for facing an opponent as skilled and battle-hardened and - frankly - LARGE opponents such as Balon. That fight was thrilling, and really cool from a Star Wars nerd's POV, because each of Balon's moves were clearly inspired by medieval knight fighting AND were moves literally from the Jedi textbooks on saber fighting.
    It made for a great fight, and I feel comparing it to the Anakin vs Ahsoka fight would have helped highlight some of your points, because it shows when Rosario's lackluster fighting performance was used and edited CORRECTLY. Love the videos, btw, keep it up

    Interesting part about the reaction shots, You are absolutely right about the drama, the verve tightening it adds to a fight, but in Dune I felt it a little bit... over the line. I was watching it with some friends and was going like :Yep Javier is still in the movie, we remember". But it's a personal preference innit. I think Raid by that time spoiled me with how focused the fights were and I fell in love with the focus of the fight, who knows.
    But boy oh boy did I enjoy the video. TMNT, Tomorrow never dies, casual slap to the presumably paralyzed face of Seagal, it's like I am back in the early naughties developing my taste for movies, such a treat!

    The best fight scene ever filmed was in the movie "They Live" between Rowdy Roddy Piper and Keith David. It was freaking brutal, and all because Piper's character was trying to get David's character to put on a pair of sunglasses.
    South Park did a remake of the fight when Jimmy fought Timmy and tried to get him to "put on the hat" instead of "put on the glasses."
    It was almost an exact copy of the original fight. So unbelievably violent. It was great!!!

    I wouldn't mind you covering Gross Pointe Blank's fight scene. As someone who has taken martial arts and been (unfortunately) in a few street fights, I find this to be one of the MOST realistic fights I've ever seen. You see a fight start off with clear moves but then slowly devolve as you both get quickly tired. They even show that when you pull off a successful block you still take damage.

Dune reminded me of these, not because of the combat technique, but because of the brutality, what is at stake and that you clearly see 2 formidable opponents with one in superiority, but everything is loaded with drama, the prince fights under sight of everyone and no one can do anything, this is a duel to the death between 2.
