What did you think of John Wick: Chapter 4 for those that watched it? *Spoilers*
It was great favorite part was when the Marquis was told to f off
Donnie Yen character carried!
I thought it was the pinnacle of American action movies. Its going to be hard to top but even with all its flaws it going to sit up there with The Raid 2.
The stunts, man! The long overhead take of people being set on fire, and cars crashing into people.... gruesome and awesome! Honestly, kudos to the stunt team of Chapter 4
@@soyourboi27 That scene was a visual beauty. Hotline Miami vibes for sure.
I said it before, and I'll say it again give Chad an award for always taking the physical demos
Chad is a beast.
well he is a chad after all
Yeah even with the padding that must hurt after awhile
I love the fact that in the John Wick movies. While people might think John is some “perfect” fighter who is infallible, you can clearly see where he misses throws with the knives and messes up in hand to hand. But it’s his knowledge and technique that save him. Makes it feel way more real.
This. When you mentioned knowledge and technique you're spot on. John Wick is a certified badass assassin BUT he's not invincible and not perfect. We associate the term master with perfection, which 9/10 times, yes, thier skills are flawless. But no one is 100% immune to mistakes. What really defines a master is that they have that knowledge and experience to RECOVER and ADAPT when they make an error, misjudgement, screw up, or they are one upped. A lot of masters make mistakes but they know how to mask those mistakes and make the mistake look natural or intended. That ability to recognize a mistake and adjust to that on the spot- without hesitation or without it stopping his flow in it's tracks- is the skill of a master, and one John Wick displays time and time again.
I was honestly surprised how well this fight scene was graded I always thought this specific scene was too gruesome to actually be realistic but that just goes to show you how real martial arts are.
Genuine question, why would you believe something too gruesome would detract from the martial arts realism of a scene?
There is a chance we share similar thoughts, but it's expressed differently.
@@redundantfridge9764 for me at least, I was always thought material arts to be more about defending yourself rather than trying to kill somebody in a fight
@@hemangpanchal9454 Well sometimes to defend yourself you must kill.
"Arm yourselves with a sword." Jesus once said
@@hemangpanchal9454That seems to fit more under a certain “philosophy” rather than the actual practices. Martial Arts is self defense and it is also attack. If you are attacking opponents, there are all sorts of ways to hurt them.
@@garlandrose9948when push comes to shove and the only way to disable an opponent from attacking you is killing them it is sensible to take that choice.
Chad at 8:52 made me laugh loud. What a Chad. Love his energy.
I want a clip option like on Twitch just for that moment x)
Hell, yeah! Chad was bringing the sexy back! 😅
@@pangopod2969 there is a clip option. I'm not sure what it's like on Twitch (never used it), but on UA-cam look for the scissors icon below the video (you'll find it by the share, download, save options). Hope that's what you're looking for.
Same 😂😂😂
Females be moist
I love the dynamic between all 3 of you. You play off each other really well, and it makes the videos really entertaining, cuz it's like watching a group of buddies horsing around. And the content is very unique and exciting.
We are simply friends having a good time talking about martial arts. Being able to entertain you is a welcome bonus. Thank you!
That’s exactly why I love this channel. It’s extremely entertaining to know how these fictional fights would work irl and if they are realistic or not. But the chemistry between Chad, Logan, and Pak is the reason I’m subscribed rather than just a guy that watched their videos whenever it appears on my recommended
@@anonymouss1270 Really appreciate this comment. Thank you ❤
2: 2:48 2:48
I really like how John Wick's early throws bounce off before he gets the hang of it. It tells a story that John either hasn't practiced knife throwing in a while, as he clearly prefers guns, or has little to no experience with knife throwing, but picks it up quick. You see something similar in the nunchuck scene in 4 where at the start of the fight John is basically using it like a club, smacking people with it, often two-handed, but clearly acclimates to fighting with it as the scene continues. until he's deftly using it in tandem with a pistol.
Who else expected a ninja looking dude for the knife throwing expert instead we get Larry from accounting lol mad respect though bro
Honestly this is the best fight scene out of all 4 movies (at least the one without guns). It's fast, chaotic, brutal, relentless, and yet pretty believable. The fact that no one realized that all glasses in these scenes are CGI another plus to me
They also made it funny at the same time somehow
A- seems like a really fair grade. I'm no expert at Kali or Judo, but I've been training in kickboxing and BJJ for years, and the choreography in the John Wick movies has always been very authentic to those disciplines. Of course, they are movies, so they get some leeway for doing things incorrectly from a technique standpoint, because they have to build tension and make things eye-catching for cinematic purposes. With that said, another fantastic breakdown from Scenic Fights! The cameo from the Great Throwdini was also really cool.
**Chad wakes up from nightmare**
Partner: "What's wrong, baby? Is it another one of those "Let's see that in full speed" ones?"
Lmao!
Rewatching the old John Wick breakdowns really show how stiff and formal Chad and Logan used to be. You can tell they’re having way more fun these days. Also, all action movies need to step up their game after these films put everything else to shame.
One of the most beautiful choreographed fight scene. Not too perfect, the messy throwing knives from the babayaga himself give it a realistic vibe to it. Love it.
You guys never fail to deliver! Love the chemistry between everyone and the special guest
I’m calling it now, I can see Logan critiquing Caine (highly skilled assassin) character for having his sword in a reserve grip John wick 4
Honestly adding Pak to the team has been such a boon. As far as John Wick goes, it's obvious everyone involved cares A LOT which isn't something you see that often in blockbusters and it's what makes it so special.
The funniest thing I know about this fight is the Director Chad Stahelski explicitly compares this fight scene to a snowball fight. It's what he calls it on the commentary apparently
Loved hearing from throwdini! Would love to see him again in future knife based stuff
If Throwdini is available, we will love to do more knife and tomahawk break downs with him!
The special guest was the cherry on top of the cake! Loved it!
I wish you guys breakdown the Raid redemption Sgt Jaka vs Mad Dog fight scenes. Jaka was more strength/power while mad dog was more on speed and agility. Hopefully you guys breakdown that fight scene
I think this goes to show just how much of an unappreciated art form this is. People who are into action movies and who are trained in these martial arts understand, but largely people don't even consider just how much nuance goes into the choreography and training. Chad and company went a long way to making the John Wick franchise as seamless, tight, and realistic looking as they could for this kind of film. And you can see and feel just how much that effort pays off. That you can go through these fights and talk about how realistic they are and how accurate the martial arts is, even if the general audience doesn't know, is testament to how much work was put into these films and how underappreciated that effort is. John Wick, for me, truly is the greatest action franchise we have going right now.
This was SO good, and it's amazing that you brought us not 2, not 3, but FOUR experts for this. Amazing work, keep it up!
I love it when everybody gets a shot at John Wick, now all we're missing is a Gun expert in Scenic Fights and the circle would be complete.
I like how Chad has almost resigned himself to his fate and mastered his role...at this point I suspect Chad perhaps enjoys it????
"Let's get it" is now living in my head rent free.
Great vid guys!
Let’s get it 💪
Chad has ultimate 80s dad energy with that pose at 8:50 for sure.
That’s Sexy Giga Chaddy Energy.
I’ve been WANTING experts break down John Wick. You appreciate the dedication and don’t mind when they’re having fun.
This is by far my favorite John Wick fight so far and you guys just made me appreciate it even more. You guys are awesome!
That was a great team-up plus a guest star breaking down a great scene. Hell yeah.
Finally got a job and a nooiiice debit card. Really hoping to get that sweet Scenic Fights t-shirt before the year is up. Hella entertaining episode. Chad's breakfall skills are also on point. The excited look on Logan's face for Throwdini though!
Really appreciate the support! It’s people like you that keep this channel running. Thank you!
One of the best videos you’ve done so far. Always fun seeing Chad getting tossed around.
It was a really perfect fight scene breakdown 👏 I loved the explanations and demonstrations.
I also really liked the idea of inviting an expert to breakdown the knife scenes and explane if the action is valid or not
Very informative and helpful
Thank you😊❤️
Thank you for the comment and special thanks to Throwdini for joining us. We def plan on bringing other experts too when possible :)
I love that when the throwing starts most of the knifes bounce off and hit handle first
Why is Chad so happy to join this breakdown just to be thrown around like a ragdoll 🤔? Very Chad of Chad.
Straight Gigachad right there.
This scene was one of my favorites in chapter 3, because the action choreagraphy was quite accurate with various techniques. And i really enjoyed this form of breakdown, looking forward to the next one
When chad hit the pose after the throw i died 😂😂😂
I've got to say I've been watching you guys since the beginning and love where the channel has gone. Started with the John Wick video and glad to see the latest one with nearly 400k subscribers. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for being an OG subscriber and going on this journey with us. It really means a lot to us. Onward to a million!
Man I just found you guys' stuff recently and I absolutely love it! Keep it up y'all!
Happy that you found us! We are doing our best to grow so that we can do more breakdowns. Feel free to share our channel with your friends :)
@@ScenicFights yeah for sure! Already showed my Muay Thai friend and he loves it!
You're a real one. Thank you!
dang, this might be my favourite breakdown so far! Great job to all of you guys|
Thank you 💪
Holy hell those judo throws were sick! Hope you guys bring a sambo guy to discuss wicks use of it throughout the movie especially with his gun-fu
Sambo was created by one of Kanos students. It's Judo+wrestling and striking.
man, i love your videos. the educational value is tremendous, combined with your silly comedic delivery is just the perfect one two combo for me. also fun to see chad being rag dolled for a change XD
13:08 action "Pak"ed....
Action “Pak”ed haha love this! Thanks for being a supporter of the channel. We shall continue throwing Chad for your entertainment.
Great breakdown, Gentlemen! 👌 When I started axe throwing, I was more comfortable throwing the longer axe double handed over the head, rather than the shorter axe single handed. Not sure why that was, but I was glad the Great Throwdini approved of that scene ending throw. 👍 This is my all time favorite John Wick scene, and there are so many to choose from!
One of the best videos yet!
Amazing guys, im partial to a bit of knife and hatchet throwing myself too so very much appreciated, excellent work.
Very awesome breakdown, looking forward to more! ❤
I have never seen a channel that breaks down fight scenes as thoroughly as this, then follows up the breakdowns with actual demonstrations. You guys know your stuff, without a doubt. Got yourselves a new subscriber!
Y'all are so charismatic. Always love coming back to these videos.
💪💪💪
Loved it! The channel's improving so much❤
Wow! Fantastic breakdown! Experts explaining these techniques make watching the movie more entertaining! Thank you!
Beautiful breakdown you guys! I loved knowing that John Wick is pretty accurate with hand to hand combat because I love his moves just as much as the gun play. 🥳
The stunt choreographers for John Wick are very legit. They never disappoint!
Would love to see a breakdown of the Batman warehouse fight scene in Batman vs Superman film. Or either the single take hallway scene from Daredevil season 1 or the staircase fight scene from season 2
As an MMA trainee I love your videos, they are entertaining and helpful!
That knife passing looks like when you defend in judo grip fighting situation when the opponent doesn't have a grip yet. So much similarities between different martial art movements, applied to different contexts. Really cool perspectives to the movie.
The way he bounced hid buddy on the ground tho. Got my sub, i rewind like seven times at those parts
GREAT EPISODE GUYS!
Been waiting for this breakdown ever since the 1st JW video. As aways, awesome video❤. Love the logan and park combi
Awesome breakdown from all of you! Gotta love Chad for being tossed like a rag doll while wearing a smile! It's great that you got a knife throwing expert to add the extra touch!! ❤
❤️ Thank you! We plan to collaborate with more experts in the future so glad to read you enjoy it. We’ll also make sure Chad keeps smiling 😎
Thanks for your love and support where are you located
Great video. I was not expecting the Great Throwdini to look like a clerk at the general a store.
Very interesting to hear your point of view from all you guys. Very enlightening
great episode you guys

@@ScenicFights good question. maybe any of the Ip Man final fights?
Great breakdown guys! My request for future breakdown is Chris Redfield vs Glenn Arias in Resident Evil Vendetta. The 0% gun hit is hilarious but the grappling and striking looked good
Glad to see Pak again, as well as the rest of you guys, of course :)
Love you a lot
Great video👊😎
2:36 that “…. ‘course you would” Big ‘I’ve-Given-Up’ energy…

Whoa whoaaaa! I love how stacked this episode is! Im soooo happy for you guys! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
We gotta raise the stake each video, especially if we’re doing something with John Wick!
"Now lets see that in full speed"
⚡️🌋

@@ScenicFights damn y'all reply fast
This channel is absolute FIRE. I'm a fan.
Thank you 💪 glad to have you visit. Let us know which fight scene we should breakdown next!
Chad Stahelski, one of the most underrated directors of modern action cinema.
Break-dance Fall @8:52 putting the Art back in the Martials babay. Love the idea of the integration of the melee range knife work with the throwing. This is something I have considered myself in my training as I integrate the Nodachi 2 handed sword forms with spear throwing techniques, as the Nodachi is balanced for throwing. This leaves little chance of the opponent being able to effectively disengage if you don't want them to.
This was great 👍
awesome vid, love you guys.
❤️
Such a good video!
I like this very much. Carry on, with all the support ❤❤
This channel is probably the best ad for a martial arts school I've ever seen. Hahaha.
Ever since watching John Wick 4 I was just DYING for another John Wick fight scenes to be covered
Pak is a “People Thrower”lol
This channel is awesome. It deserves a lot more views.
Appreciate that! Make sure to share our channel with your friends and let us know which fight scene we should breakdown next!
I like that they went out of their way to make the fights look just realistic enough to be credible but still have that hyper realistic style that we love to watch on screen.
Yoo this video is so good. Good shit boys y’all killed it
Thank you 💪 That’s always our goal with these breakdowns. Glad we got your approval.
Absolutely brilliant breakdown!
Just ::chefs kiss::
I feel that since John Wick (the first movie) was released and got the amazing popularity it did (rightfully so, mind you), the techniques used in action movies have gone up in variety.
No longer just wushu (kung-fu) or karate, but we're seeing judo, kali, sambo, savate...
Hells, if we'd get some Capoiera and catch as catch can action in, in addition to HEMA (poke to Adorea
One thing I noticed in this scene is that John Wick tends to strike with an open hand vs throwing punches. This is a nice detail and a smart move by John Wick; when throwing punches with no wraps, you risk breaking your fingers. John Wick needs his hands to work in order to shoot his guns.
Experts!!! Thank you for the breakdown. Defo subscribing
Dope episode
It's amazing how many ways there are to beat someone up or get yourself killed. I love this channel lol
Great video guys. Love that John Wick fight scene 🥊 🔪
Order of movies: 1/2, 4, 3
I love Chad lol. And I'm loving the explanation and then full speed breakdown, good stuff
Let’s goo! I was looking forward to this one
You know we always got you!
@@ScenicFights haha of course! Every new video is an absolute blast, and somehow always better than the last! (Hey that rhymes 😅)
one thing about the Wick movies. no matter how ridiculous the fights are, Keanu makes sure he works with real combat professionals to make things seems as real as possible
I subscribed when I recently rewatched your videos due to seeing John Wick 4 in the cinema. Can't wait for that!
Thank you for subscribing 💪
Top guest so far
@ 2:30 it's an Aikido Technique called kotegaeshi. It is in my opinion the crown jewel of all aikido techniques.
