Best silent film fight scene ever

This is the silent film "An Altercation Between Two Gentlemen" (1908), the first film ever to contain an action-packed and choreographed martial arts fight scene.

Don't be fooled by its old-fashioned looks, this early film is very influential still to this day: the martial arts masterpiece "Undefeatable" (1994) is an homage paid to this pioneering piece of art.

To celebrate one century of action-packed fight scenes on the big screen, I decided to dig this gem of cinematographic history out of the archives.

OK, I quit fooling around now, of course this is the climatic fight scene from "Undefeatable" with some retro effects, in case you haven't noticed already. Almost got you there, huh? :p

Where do you get the effects, like the projector thing?

[Chiflado21]

The projector I got from iDVD (i.e. the projector thing is actually a DVD menu which I hijacked for this video). The effects to make the video look old were generated in iMovie, plain and simple

Sorry... I've just read the full description and realised it's American, and they are ten years behind the UK, fashion wise.

Why have the two blokes got early 1980s hairstyles? Was it meant to be?
