Jean-Claude Van Damme Tribute

Most of you have probably already seen it: the famous comeback that Van Damme's most famous for. Also known as Kickboxer, it was so amazing to watch even though I'd never watched Kickboxer (or Van Damme's movies in particular). I will admit, I thought he was just kicking at first, and was like "ANYONE CAN DO THAT PFFT." Then I found out...and blah blah blah.

Anyway, this vid is not only based on that one match, but it's also pretty much inspired completely by it. Such an amazing feet...I never wanted to reproduce it, I know I never could, but I wanted to at least be able to kick a chinese guy. I haven't practiced with many other than kicking trees, but, whatever.

ANYWAY, the video is nothing special, it just shows Van Damme in action, and then some additional, equally-non-special crap at the end. Yeah, it's nothin' special, but hey, it is DAMN hard to do, so give me some credit.

The song I chose is Survivor - Eye of the Tiger, because it's basically my favorite song, and I only had one other I coulda chosen. Well, that I wanted to choose anyway. Now, I realize I've also used Eye of the Tiger in another vid of mine, but no one's gonna notice, or care for that matter, so it's cool.

NOW, in the credits, what little there is of it, it says the vid took 'bout 15-20 hours to make altogether. That's mostly true. However, the subtitles took me like an extra ten hours, which I'll cover below.

Ahem. Yes. If there's one thing I'm proud of in this vid, it's the subtitles, WORKING subtitles that were made in WINDOWS MOVIE MAKER. YEAH, CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? Such a crappy piece of crap video-editing program (it's okay, but YOU try making subtitles perfectly timed, it won't let you, it's gay), and I did it. Of course, it ain't perfect, and it's probably not even necessary, but by golly, I felt like doing it.

Speaking of which, there's a few debatable lines that if you know Eye of the Tiger you might think differently about, but whatever, I went by what I thought together with like 5+ lyrics sites.
