DEADWOOD- Dan Vs. 'The Captain'

[wintersnoob]

Dan is the best.

[Zebonka]

Reminds me of Trey Parker. OH MY EYE, MY EYE

[thedailykirk]

Going wrong is not the end of fucking things, Johnny. Fuck no! I have come back from plenty of shit that looked like it was going wrong.

[TheSmithbelynda]

As much as I love W Earl Brown, I will never be able to look at him without thinking, "franks and beans!!!" from There's Something About Mary. Every time I see him that's the first thing I think.

[sarahi010]

Thumbs up if YAHOO! News brought you here!! :))

[thehiphopdepot]

The fight scene from They Live kills this

[TIMOTHYSAARINEN]

@thehiphopdepot, Yeah,. but this fight scene from "Deadwood" was very realistic, whereas the fight scene from "They Live", while quite entertaining, was meant to be comedic, therefore not so realistic. It's like comparing apples and bowling balls.

[thehiphopdepot]

@TIMOTHYSAARINEN I dont get whats so realistic about this fight.. People dont fight like this.. Do people get their eye pulled out where youre from?

[Dud3nn]

@thehiphopdepot people don't get their eyes pulled out today, but its realistic in the fact that they both aren't going all out after 2 minutes of straight fighting as you see in modern day movies.

[samurai1833]

I grew up in Detroit...this fight has me like, "meh"

[oohgoditsbees]

This was one of my favorite HBO shows. I was so sad after it ended. 3 seasons was not enough.

[latethirties]

This is the best fight scene ever. So real. No bullshit and so desperate.

I love the look on Al's face when he thinks Dan has lost the fight, but then he sees a small chance Dan's back!

[latethirties]

This is the best fight scene ever. So real. No bullshit and so desperate.

[dirkdiglertoo]

Awesome fight scene. That's the way outta shape guys do it

[TurnerBobbie]

Best fight scene ever. so much desperation...

the drowning in the muck made me so anxious.

Such a quality show that no one seems to know about

[doltbezoar]

Best fight scene ever. First time that I felt I was watching the real thing and forgot it was not real.

[taistelutomaatti]

I wonder how you'd felt after getting the back of your head smacked on a stone like that. Massive fucking headache?

[StoneDeafBand]

I love how realistic this fight is, it's not fancy martial arts, it's a good old fashioned brawl! Looks like Captain Bob can slob on Dan's knob lol

[iconoclasm12345]

what a couple of fat fucks. fun to watch them beat the shit out of each other at least

[cshubs]

I just recently watched the ep of Justified in which W Earl Brown had a role as a prisoner. Good actor, if not a bit stereotyped.

If you haven't watched Justified, do so ASAP.

[sewerface]

I just don't think I've ever seen a fight scene I enjoyed more.

[latethirties]

Fantatastic scene. Love Deadwood!

[xSharktastic]

Well someone has been watching too much UFC.

[SuperTornado2212]

That was hell of a fight!

[Warlordx91]

im afraid to itch my eye now

[jswinder]

I love how Dan is always looking for Al's approval - even when he's being strangled to death. Swearengen's expression at 2:57 is fucking priceless.

[timmian85]

Fight seemed over after the captain bit him, after that it was only survival for Dan.

[luismegadeth]

i had nightmares with the eye thing

[Triarity]

@luismegadeth And I'm gonna get those

[CoDaC35]

Round 1! FIGHT!

[felixtimlock]

I just watched this today..such an epic fight scene!! I would say the best I've ever seen on tv or in a movie.

[protozephyr]

a typical "clean" fight in ye olde west:

step 1) have a dude bite your cheek

step 2) get almost drowned in a puddle

step 3) let your head get smashed on a pile of rocks repeatedly

step 4) tear the guy's eye out then bludgeon him to death with a vintage 2x4 :)

[davenielsen78]

Both are really out of shape.

[jmbellat]

the most horrible scene i've seen for a TV series But deadwwood it's a great serie.

[A72927292]

Dan took out the Captain's eye because the Captain bit him. Thats a no no. Atta boy Dan. Best series ever !

[Mattraction513]

Next week Dan Dority vs Hoss Cartwright

[CoDaC35]

@Mattraction513 this is must happen!

[GhostOfBrendan]

Dan Dority is the man! I was so nervous he'd lose when I first watched this. What a badass..

[wordwreck]

10 people suck c*ck by choice.

[IndianHippie]

NIGGERS

[BigCM06]

the part where Al briefly lowers his head, when he first thinks that Dan has lost, is an amazing little moment.

it's the most respect that Al has ever paid a man who he thought was dead.

[thearrogantwebcast]

@BigCM06 well, maybe the Reverend too

[swastikausa]

did not see that one coming.

[cbmeeks]

Best show ever made. Real men always start an epic fight with a bear hug first.

[WarriorClass22]

Dan still got his ass whooped lol

[wdchefdave56]

Dan did fuck that man up.

One of the best "bad-guys" in TV history.

W. Earl Brown is also a writer, directer, and producer.

And I'd let him fight in a mud-hole for me any time!

[thekevinlogan1of1]

holy cow!!i've never watched this show is it as good as it looks?

[kittensandlipstick]

@thekevinlogan1of1 Yes!

[azmanntoz]

Wonder what Mr Wu was doing during this?

[Bluehawk2008]

@azmanntoz

Waking up the pigs.

[lou4brew]

@azmanntoz getting the pigs ready....

[SimonHenrichsen]

Dan Dority, ladies and gentlemen. Manliest right-hand man in the history of television.

[17921newaccount]

@SimonHenrichsen Stringer Bell.

[SimonHenrichsen]

@17921newaccount A very fine runner up and the winner if it was slickest right-hand man, but I gotta give the manliest right-hand man to Dan, mate :)

[amerikano]

I always wondered why I never got into Deadwood..... oh yeah, it wasn't The Sopranos. If I wanted to see a bunch of over weight country hics hug, wrestle and Mike Tyson kiss each other.... I'd watch Deadwood.

[TheRedRabbit911]

@amerikano I don't even understand why you'd need to make this point? No shit Sherlock.

[kittensandlipstick]

@amerikano Oh I see...you'd rather watch a bunch of overweight Guidos shoot each other with their little guns/penises. Sopranos is like The Andy Griffith Show compared to Deadwood.

[amerikano]

@kittensandlipstick Gabagool.

[bear619bolt4life]

For the Heavyweight title of Deadwood....

[RyT1994]

0:24 look! it's Kenny Jones, the cameraman from Scream!

[viktororri]

is that his?..... yep

[RaSTAMaNJaHLiV3]

Nice fucked uo to the Capitan (y)

[Buddha370]

Like two grizzly bears fightin' over a salmon...

[deadwoodeye]

New Deadwood channel here

[AnnabellsSmiles]

@deadwoodeye Very Dubious channel.

[BCShimDaddy]

NUTS AND EYES BOYS!!!! NUTS AND EYES!!!!!

[deadwoodeye]

NEW DEADWOOD CHANNEL

[Boethus]

Fuck a fair fight. Win.

[msa1985]

big van vader took it like man.

fuckin pussy

[oki9Sedo]

The single most horrific thing I've ever seen on a TV show. Its so unexpected too, the fight is violent and brutal, but as a lot of film/TV fights are, and looks like its going to end and out of nowhere comes THAT. Jesus

[ADZ23774]

@oki9Sedo what about the young girl who gets whacked round the head,thats really horrific,her eyes glaze over and it gives me shivers thinkin bout it,ya know the young lass whos thiefing and gets caught.

[AnnabellsSmiles]

@ADZ23774 haha she got what she deserved. Its not real do you think its real life?

[ADZ23774]

@AnnabellsSmiles YES,of course its real life,thats what the easter bunny told me anyways,your silly if ya think its fiction,anyway,im off to the pub with santa claus,bye bye =]

[AnnabellsSmiles]

@ADZ23774 Hehe Tell Santa he ows me a pint.

[ADZ23774]

@AnnabellsSmiles aha,so he did it to you as well eh,hes quite slippery when it comes to his round isnt he,ill tell him but i dont think youll see him again lol

[AnnabellsSmiles]

@ADZ23774 I know, Its okay I'll just take it out on Rudolph. He's not getting any carrots next time...

[ADZ23774]

@AnnabellsSmiles good thinking,that'll fettle'em lol,we should make up a song about prancer,make him the most famous riendeer eh ;]

[AnnabellsSmiles]

@ADZ23774 Errr sure... If you want too.. lol

[ADZ23774]

@AnnabellsSmiles ok,did i go a bit far that time,i tend to do that,nuff sed,im off to play a game of footy with the little munchkins at the bottom of me garden,ya can come if ya like but they not too keen on strangers =]

[AnnabellsSmiles]

@ADZ23774 I will pass..

[Gollumz]

They still ought to make a short tv-movie or something, just for the fans. HBO let us down.

[Gollumz]

This is actually too realistic. The eye popping almost made me puke and I must tell I'm definently not the faint of heat :P

[pwnageprata]

he would've won if not for the diabeetus

[Fanatixtube]

@pwnageprata lol one of the funniest comments i've read in awhile

[AnatoleEricsson]

Now this is a fucking fight. Not like all the overchoreographed hollywood fight scenes we have to deal with most of the time.

[bumpeeknux]

A FAIR FIGHT(somethin dan and i have always struggled to avoid)IS DIFFERENT,YOU SEE THE LIGHT GO OUTTA THEIR EYES.ITS JUST YOU LEFT,AND DEATH.

[JSK1121]

Is this the greatest fight scene in TV (or maybe even movie for that matter) history? I say, "yes."

[Hallowedpointdtp]

If you continue to watch the series you'll come to find the captain actually held back as he promised to make the fight last long... but either way i voted for dan from the beginning...

[stump229]

@Hallowedpointdtp man i was thinking about that as i watched this and it didnt seem like he held back to me that was some bullshit man old dan fucked him because he didnt freak out when he was down like the capt did he kept his head and pulled his leg out from under him dan would fucked that guy up with his eyeball hangin out

[jleven96]

@Hallowedpointdtp To be fair, we dont know for sure if he actually held back, or if that is what Hearst says to talkdown the significance of the captain's death.

[Hallowedpointdtp]

@jleven96 true

[Zhqrxt]

"Going wrong is not the end of fucking things, Johnny. Fuck no! I have come back from plenty of shit that looked like it was going wrong."

[phoenixdef]

i'm a fan of gladiator, braveheart, etc. but they don't have shit on this fight scene. truly legendary.

[MightySaturn5]

This fight is a total emotional rollercoaster, extremely high tension and drama.

[bwownbwead]

This scene is absolutely genius! I have one last episode of DW to watch :-( I really don't want it to end...

[brokenwingb4]

Now this by far is the grossest scene on series Deadwood. Ah when that eyeball popped out. I about lost all the cookies right then and there. LOL

Earl Brown is the friendliest man you could meet. He is just a great big huggy bear and just a wonderful man,actor, and singer. I love the song he wrote and sang with Sacred Cowboys. It is just great.

I thought and hoped for season 4. There was to be more I thought. And HBO hasn't had as great of a hit as this one. Next would be Sopranos for me.

[swastikausa]

he sings really. I always thought he looked like steve earle and now he sings.

[kotk05]

Never underestimate an older gentlemen, or in Captain's case, older bastard, he had the fight won, but Hearst's greed was his down fall. Daily survival was everything back then and Dan Dority is the f'n man!

[KnightShine7]

fuucking awesome

[proposals]

I remember the first time I saw this, when it looks like Dan is done for, I was shouting "Oh fuck! No! Dan!" at the screen. Then when he tore his eye out I actually screamed. I think some neighbors might have been woken up that night. Amazingly taut scene.

[MisterMikes]

I couldn't look through fear when he was hitting Dan's head of off the stone; i thought he was dead right there. Pretty incredible really.

[DieHolmes]

Dan loves AL so much. It's actually quite sweet.

[CH3MIS7RY]

Scene was RAW as FUCK

[anguaa]

this was freakin amazing

[WiseGuy5674]

The Captain would have killed Dan. Hurst told the Captain to "make it last"..Bad move.

[AriesTRam]

Best ass-kicking ever! Gouging out someone's eye usually ends most fights!

[happysplinters]

The ground and pound style was all the rage back then.

[LxRv47]

Nasty f-in stuff.. the sounds he makes when his eye is torn out are pretty brutal.

[hanghang71]

this takes all the glamour out of violence,and show's you cold ,hard reality.I was struck dumb for a bit after this

[WileeC]

I love the subtle rock back & nod Al gives when Dan looks at him. It reminds me of the old gladiator movies where they looked up for the thumbs up or thumbs down before killing the loser or letting them live. Great symbolism.

[KleWdSide]

Would anyone fight Dan?

[Brown86Town]

@KleWdSide I sure the fuck wouldn't, lol.

[sagem28]

Just saw this scene today, I was sitting on the top of my chair holding my breath.....this was fucking tense ! I actually yelled at some point "fucking kill him Dan !" Needles to say: Best fighting scene ever !

[WewDewDew]

This fight scene makes my bones tremble. I dont know how HBO could have canceled this show.

[doltbezoar]

Best fight scene ever . . . best HBO series EVER!

[keithjfro]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH 

[limboslam]

Is that the retard from "There's something about Mary?"

[WildBill6942]

@limboslam - yeap, that's W. Earl Brown who also played Warren in There's Something About Mary. Hard to believe Dority and Warren are the same people.

[McGillicutty5000]

@WildBill6942

Franks and beans cocksucker !!!

[WiseGuy5674]

@WildBill6942 ...Holy shit!..I did not realize that until you mentioned it!

[samo314159]

@limboslam Captain Turner REALLY should have just given him his baseball. This how you lose an eye, people...

[GamerGuy31989]

whats the name of the captians boss?

[SmokinBluntzzz]

@GamerGuy31989 Captain Joe Turner

[SmokinBluntzzz]

Yesssssssir I remember watching this for the first time cheering out loud for Dority. Bring back Deadwood, HBO, please!!!!!

[wtg2989]

@SteveHolt1984 I'm guilty of that ha ha! Wish I hadn't though

[FunkhouserMemorial]

Keep an EYE OUT for the Captain.

[isaachaze1]

whentf is this comin out on bluray?? wtf co#$sucka$!

[rugshort]

What episode was this?

[GamerGuy31989]

thanks

[GamerGuy31989]

what season is this?

[hayleysneer92]

@GamerGuy31989 Season Three

[AaronSarkisian]

Dan is The Man !

[GlennShook]

Why were they fighting? This show always looked kinda good to me and I love Timothy Olyphant but I never watched it.

[rebharath]

@GlennShook the two guys on the balconies are rivals and the guys fighting are their respective henchmen. al swearengen's guy, dan, won the fight. great series - the profane mixed with the sublime.

[melvert33]

@rebharath yeah this a brilliant series though I have to admit I sometimes don't know what they're talking about!!

[NikovKalashAktomov]

FOL* F*cking shit his eye aaah xD

[skittlesareyum48]

HOLY FUCK HIS FUCKING EYE

[MrTheSwampthing]

Dan is Warren from "There's Something About Mary"

[waveshock]

@MrTheSwampthing The captain shouldn't have touched his ear!

[MrTheSwampthing]

@waveshock Hahahaha! nice one man

[spuzmanX]

dan whooped some ass

[BCShimDaddy]

NUTS AND EYES

[satidog]

This same thing happened to me last week.

heh.

Seriously though, this was a great scene.  It's so vile and matter of fact.

[zackhanscom]

first rule of tv fights, start with a bear hug. this fight was boring as shit tbh

[AvEryBadApPLe]

the gladiator fight with titus on rome and that beating chris gave that child molester on the wire, were both bad ass. however, this scene right here with dan and the captain is just epic.

[durro9xl]

amazing show sum1 shud make another like this,that shit justified thats on now shud of been set in these times

[4g63gen1]

the best televison show ever created

[Aivottaja]

Dan took the pussy way out. I think it's an unwritten rule that in a fight you're supposes to leave the eyes and the balls alone.

[strizzuth]

@Aivottaja You forget. This is Deadwood. There are no rules.

[foolishkais]

@Aivottaja Well the captain happened to be bashing his head against a rock.

Frankly I'd break a few rules by that point too.

[Bogdin7]

@Aivottaja

The ones who follow the 'rules' in fights are the ones who end up with parts of them getting broken off and pulled out. This was much more realistic than most of the dumb macho slugging you see in TV fights, especially Westerns.

[tomyearl]

Is it me or does the captain look like Mike Hulmgren?

[richiemo2000]

I really miss this show, and I was very dissapointed that HBO cancelled the 4 hour series finale they originally planned.

[grindmaggots666]

awesome scene! i thought the older one really should win for a while, then he got he`s fucking eye ripped out O.o

[escott52]

Dan just plain dont F around.

[mcfc98]

I wonder if Dan recuperated by eating some Franks and Beans.

[Emrod82]

@mcfc98 its take like 2-3 episodes before he recuperated from the figth by the way.... (o;

[killerskillet]

Those who doubted Dan suck cock by choice!!!

[hayleysneer92]

BRING DEADWOOD BACK! HBO Cocksuckers!

[catpowerd]

@hayleysneer92 This! This! Forever this

[remymartain]

You can still see fights like this in places like Blackpool or Grimbsy England most Friday and Saturday nights! It is part of the binge drinking culture in the UK.

[Alfolioli]

Can anyone tell me, is what happened to the Captain's eye possible in real life? Not that I'm intending to use it in a fight :)

[stickydisgust]

@Alfolioli

You really asking that?

[Alfolioli]

Yeah.

[stickydisgust]

@Alfolioli

To get ice cream out of a tub, you push in and then scoop behind it.

[RagsYooTube]

of course. he didnt pop it out as such. he hooked his finger into lower eyelid and ripped that away, then eye came loose. but you are right- it's a move only to be employed in desperate situations

[poolfuhrer]

Yes, it most definitely can.

[mandaltby]

Go Big Dan

[PaganBodhisatva]

Between this and the "put on the fucking glasses" scene in They Live....Greatest fight scenes in film history!!!

[o9rady]

Dan is one of my favorite Deadwood characters. I was on the edge of my seat during this sequence. I did not even realize (my girlfriend told me) that I was yelling at the tv for Dan to 'cave his head in!'.

[thepissflap]

i actually thought dan was gonna get killed.. making Al and Bullock have to team up..and i too was shouting at the TV..

[andeaver1937]

is that his fuckin eyeball hangin out?

[medcsu]

Yep

[Luk333]

This is one of the scenes from Deadwood that still gets me paralyzed when I see it.

[tyler0896]

I need way more than a you tube comment to sum up why it was a disappointment. But to sum it up there should have been 3 fish hooks and one eye gouge throughout episodes before this. Then there should have been one fish hook in the middle of this, or early on in the fight.

[Draig1212x]

This is in no way the best fight scene, try the alley fight from 'They Live'...

[cruffrider5]

what makes this fight scene so amazing isnt just the fight, but the intense build up to it.

[goonzies]

When I originally saw this, I was completely blown away. This takes everything "pretty" out of a fight scene and is perhaps the most realistically gruesome fight scene I've ever scene. By the time the series had gotten to this point I was so enthralled by the characters/storyline that I could barely breathe watching them duke it out.

AMAZING acting and cinematography, such an epic duel.
