is a swordmaster that looks like a swordmaster in an RPG Kudos.
-
When I see this guy I almost can see a dialogue chance: Sell Buy Craft
-
They wouldnt have to resort to swordfighting had they built ditches first. Build ditches.
-
I’d just like to point out how excellent I think this man is for KNOWING and Acknowledging the absolute splendour that is the princess bride
-
man is brutally stabbed through the eye “That’s quite nice”
-
This man is exactly what i'd imagine an expert swordsman looks like
-
I love that while he analyzes how realistic each scene is, he also acknowledges the narrative and stylistic role of the scenes. I'd love to hear his opinion of the Michal Wolodyjowski scenes in "The Deluge" and "With Fire and Sword." Those are my favorite sword fight scenes.
-
Princess Bride: "This, in case you didn't know it, is the best fight scene ever, in any film, EVER." Wasn't sure how I felt about him, but now he's one of my favorites.
-
His mustache just makes me want to trust him with my life in the heat of battle.
-
"Henry Cavill being very good physically" Yes... yes he is.
-
The "okay?" As he's speaking about these scenes makes me feeling like he's teaching me personally. I'm here nodding my head reacting to his dialog lol. Bet he's a great instructor.
-
I love that he called the princess bride fight the best fight scene ever 😁😂
-
Swordmaster: This is not a good way to fight. Geralt: Hmmmm
-
Give him and his mustache a round of applause.
-
You called the sword fighting scene in The Princess Bride the greatest of all time..... yes, it was!
-
I love how he makes a whole speech at the end about understanding and appreciating when things are done for theatrical or narrative effect and rates them highly, and then gives Zorro a 1/10 for that exact thing
-
The mustache is a thing of beauty and therefore adds +10 to his Persuasion.
-
"He's angry. He's always explicit. Everything is these wide powerful slashes that aren't necessarily good for defense." this man here explaining why the sith always lose fights
-
he should have put Count Dooku in there. he had a style that very much resembled real-life fencing. plus... Sir Christopher Lee was a legitimate master of fencing and swordsmanship. along with other skills he aquired while serving in a World War 2 special ops unit.
-
I gotta say.... That was one of the best and most detailed reviews of anything i've ever seen. I mean, this guy surely knows what he's talking about, you gotta appreciate that !
