Regarding the Lame Fight
Wed, 26 Apr 2006, 08:11 amRegarding the Lame Fight Sequence
> well what do you expect - this is theatre, not film!!!!
And what has that to do with anything? Sure theatrical stage fighting can be quite different to combat on film, but that does not mean automatically it is "lame". At least your statement seems to indicate that (correct me if I am wrong.)
Stage fighting can be more flashy and envigorating than film. Take the 'Princess Bride' as an example. The ranging fight sequence in the opening half of the film is basically a theatrically coreographed sequence. Call that lame and you're a heathen. ;-)
