I can see a lot off work went into this. Kind of reminded me of some Freddie Wong videos I've seen. Well done!

[Wakeupfast]

@djgallant Thanks, dude! Definitely channeled my inner Freddiew for this one.

[Tempyst]

Awesome stuff Dain! I hope you don't mind a bit of constructive criticism:

Some bassier, crunchier, sound effects would go along nicely with the action movie cliche theme. You definitely avoided the rookie mistake of using unmixed Counter Strike sounds, but the henchman's MP5 doesn't sound very movie machine-gunny. When you punch the henchman, the sound effect is actually fairly realistic and believable- normally I'd be in full support of this, but since you're parodying action movie cliches..

[Tempyst]

something more extreme and distinctive would fit better in the scene. For example, here's an excerpt about the punch sounds used in last Rocky film: "When a punch lands in the film, the sound used was a real punch, whereas in previous films, sounds used for punches had included shotgun blasts, broken bottles, chains and baseball bats hitting wet leather. "

That aside, I think it would have looked visually better if you accentuated the recoil from your airsoft pistol, but since you're parodying..

[Tempyst]

action movie cliches, making it look like the pistol has zero recoil as you fire it without looking fits the theme.

On that note, the stuff that worked:

- Grabbing the car door was quite inspired and would look great in an actual action movie

- The incomprehensible fist fight is my biggest pet peeve about modern action movies, perfectly done

- Was the henchman shooting directly at you and missing a homage to UHF? Either way, it was funny

The whole thing worked through and through, excellent job!

[Wakeupfast]

@Tempyst The car door is going to be in every action sequence I ever shoot from now on. I felt like and still feel like an utter badass for doing that. The fist fight was actually exhausting to shoot. There's about 3 minutes of b-roll from using just sparring. And no, not a UHF reference, but thanks for making me want to watch that movie now!!

[Wakeupfast]

@Tempyst Sound mixing is actually my weakest point. I have little to experience in audio. And for this video, sound was the last part I put together, so it was, admittedly, a bit rushed. I also don't have high quality sound samples so I'm limited to what I can find on the net.

[Kuledud3]

Please. please. please. Become famous Dain PLEASE

[Wakeupfast]

@Kuledud3 Working on it!!

[ANNOYINGCANADIAN]

Dain you better have not killed those two girls!

Great video liked and added to my favorites :)

[Wakeupfast]

@ANNOYINGCANADIAN On the list of things I'd do to those girls, kill them is not one of them.
