They'll likely cut the QTE stuff, yea. But on a more related note, you could write an entire book on the stark difference between what Paul W.S Anderson shot and what editor Doobie White delivered in Resident Evil: Final Chapter. We've seen behind the scenes footage. We can step through frame by frame to see that the choreography is solid. The continuity is solid. This isn't random shots assembled into a fight. This is a carefully choreographed fight shot from multiple angles that has been edited into the cinematic equivalent of sticking your head into a washing machine. There are limits to how many cuts a human being can handle without becoming discombobulated, and this film, which has 6,000 cuts in 1 hour and 40 minutes, sails well past the cape of good sense. I still like the movie, though.

Does the knife shape really matter against a person?
>master at arms
I can pretty much guarantee that no actual South African woman or troony ever bought or used this shit. Its a meme product for neckbear knifegay collectors and tactard poseurs raised on Soldier of Fortune tier fairy tales and israelitetube vidyas.
LMAO, that video of master-of-arms (tf does that even mean) fantasies about biomechanical cuts and controlling the opponent with a elaborate moves during the knife fight is used as a hilarious hopium by tards who are desperate to justify purchase of a new gamechanging toy. Just look at tjose comments that practically dripping cum and sweat over how scary, tough and menacing this knife will make its owner. Shits straight from old Soldier of Fortune advertisements.
Irl this would never worked. If the other guy has a knife he would try to stab you over and over again just like a roman legionaire. There would'n be any romantic knife dance swish-swish. It would be stab stab and that's it. Great way to get yourself killed
It depends how fast the other guy is. First stab and that's it. Your toast. Doesn't matter if you wield a knife as well. The one who gets the first strike wins
because they don't make small scale gritty action movies that have a budget anymore. The most prominent movies like that in recent times are the Bourne sequels and they are too busy trying to create spectacle to have a 10 minute scene where two guys knife fight. In the last bourne movie there is a scene where matt damon is chasing vincent casel for some reason and casel rams into like 50 police cars with an armored personnel carrier. He committed like 200 felonies with enhancements. Knife fighting is small time compared to that.
The last movie that I remember that has a focus on martial bladecraft is The Hunted, starring tommy lee and benecio del toro. that came out like 20 years ago
Multiple reasons
-Action directors don't know how to edit films to make shit like knife fights look realistic anymore
-Actors are unskilled in combat and cbf learning for a role
-Critics and leftists don't like violence, and the industry kowtows to them in fear of getting bad publicity on social media
Part of the problem is basically the editing equivalent of the loudness war in music. Editing in films has gotten faster and faster because of the perception that audiences will get bored with long unbroken takes because they're not exciting enough. This is also why Disney Star Wars has awful shaky cam stuff unlike Lucas's smooth camera work.
Don't wanna upset the British
Why do Americans keep trying to meme this into existence?
You got a loicense for that?
“Alexa, pull up Brit Bong knife and acid attack statistics, sort by race and citizenship status”
the meme comes from reddit and they never mention race
Idk but i like steamy knife scenes
Why did he wear a chainmail wifebeater?
Doesn't everybody?
>he doesn't have a chainmail wifebeater in regular rotation from his wardrobe
ngmi
>he doesnt have one
Sometimes the wife fights back, mate.
That's grandma's gift.
It wasn't chainmail (which is correctly called MAIL).
He was afraid of land sharks biting his core.

ITS GOING AT YOUR BALLS
Why were we ever supposed to think that this guy was a threat to Arnie?
Because Hollywood is selling guns.
Toxic masculinity. Women get wet watching two Chads go at it. Makes feminists and trannies seethe
too risky they could get switched out with a real one
knife only fights are overrated
cos marvel dc capeshit ruined movies forever more
>throws a spear through him
>steam shoots out of his body
It was a reference to this.
Or games? I guarantee this part will get cut from RE4 Remake.
Modern actors can't perform action scenes without shooting and killing their director and stunt doubles don't look like them.
Resident Evil sux.

They were ruined after the Under Siege knife fight.
>The Matriarch was designed for women in South Africa as a last ditch self defense implement for defense against rape. The reverse S-curve blade provides maximum effectiveness with basic motor functions and limited training.
Thoughts?
Yeah. Don't go to South Africa.
I heard they have ball the size of a tangerine.
Does the knife shape really matter against a person?
Yes
Jesus…
It does if it strikes bone, or the wielder is so weak they can't pull it out and strike again
>master at arms

You're just jealous my dude.

It's also a $110 paperweight that can't slice a tomato, a block of cheese, open a roll of bread, or take the tape off a box
for a country as poor as south africa I think most people would be better off with a dozier folding hunter
This knife is useless for defense. You can't stab with it and slashing only works in one direction.
Irl this would never worked. If the other guy has a knife he would try to stab you over and over again just like a roman legionaire. There would'n be any romantic knife dance swish-swish. It would be stab stab and that's it. Great way to get yourself killed
What if both guys have knives and are equally proficient with them?

Korean gangster movies have a lot of knife fighting.
I guess shovels are too offensive
John Wick 3 has them
Because CGI dolls punching each other is more engaging.
Jack Reacher made them uncool and ridiculous.
Put your hand on that wall, Trooper.
The Hunted is the ultimate knife-fighting kino.
It never made sense that the bad guy was a fat man with no muscle definition of any kind and looked like a complete joke next to arnold.
>a fat man with no muscle definition
That's what made him scary.
He had a knitted vest which added +10 to his danger level.

Knife fights will either be overly choreographed and gay, or too brutal and gory for mainstream action movies. There's no in between.
Stahp scruweing around and let the gurl goh, its me that you wahnt.
Hahahaha
Ccum on Bennett lets pahty!
They can't do action scenes at all anymore.
Nobody makes fight scenes with kino build-up anymore.
What fricking happened to movies man

literally just capeshit
Knife and fist fight finales are the best way for two characters to settle things personally
Seagal with Aikido disabled them
