Nolans KFM style at least tried togive the viewer a sense of realism, because of its close quarter nature and a lot of blocks and counters. I am too old for this "look at me, I am cool" fighting style. That looks SO FAKE and cheesy, especially if they amp up the speed of the footage to make it sem faster. What I would really hate would be this Scott Adkins B-movie, roundhouse, spinkick, jumping around, kick, kick, spinkick, roundhouse style. Sure, I don't want Snyder to redo that, so I guess the Watchmen action would be cool, if he would dirty it up a bit and loose the slo-mo. I know a lot of people hated the Nolan fight scenes, but I loved them because they were dirty and hectic and ugly and raw. Yeah, that would be cool, but to me it was always a bit too music video like. But what do you guys think ? More kung fu (should he get all Crouching Tiger, ) or more street-fighting (and no, not Ryu or Chun Li)? The underlying question here is how far Snyder should depart from Nolan's You see a similar style used on Jonathon Nolan's "Person of Interest" which is essentially a TV show where Batman has been split into two people, I would want Batman to be more Ozymandias than Comedian, brutal andĪnother terrific fighting style inspiration is the work Jeff Imada didĬhoreographing the fights in the Bourne movies (if You haven't seen them go see Bourne Ultimatum, best fist fights EVER!) that works for both gangs, and individuals (although Bourne does fight to kill when he has to). Snyder showed some very deft fight choreography in Watchmen, bordering on kung-fu, but very brutal, (the Comedian vs Ozymandias fight in the opening sequence is terrific, stylish but savage). But should Batman be more matrix-kung-fu like ? ( like Richard Grayson as Batman) although in films its hard to do acrobatic But do you guys want so see something more acrobatic I'd like to see Bats aim for his enemies weakpoints. To be honest, he was dumb standing in front of Bane and swinging away, I don't even mind seeing Bats eye-gouge, bite and keep the headbutts ! Guy's looked like he was fighting in the matrix, check out the Silva vs Personally, as a fan of UFC, I'd love to see him either take more of an Anderson Silva or Jon Jones approach, mixing up a variety of striking techniques, perhaps with Silva's almost magical timing. The sequences in TDKR when he fights about 7 of Bane's thugs shows some reasonable tactics (stacking, shielding) but Bats needs to be Yes, punches are quick, and can be very effective (which makes sense when fighting a gang) but it behoves Batman to be particularly nasty,Īs in kicking/stomping on knee joint, and definitely kicking some thug in the groin. I'd love to see Batman break more bones, be a lot more ruthless. In the comics, Bats does whatever he needs to, to win, short of killing. I like the KFM, but I think Bats needs to mix it up even moreĪnd throw in a lot dirtier tactics and techniques Personally, I'd like Batman to be an even dirtier fighter, and throw in some Should Snyder go back to that, or stick with the gritty practicality of KFM. Previous Batmen, well besides Adam West, utilised more kicks (Keaton'sīatman throws a side-kick in his first appearance, Kilmer's Batman doesĪ few roundhouses and spinning hook kicks). Show a greater variety of kicks in Batman Begins). ![]() Hammerfists and the right cross, with an odd front kick (although he does ![]() Moves should he use ? Bale's Batman relied primary on elbows, headbutts, Should Snyder's Batfleck have a different fighting style ? What sort of Ninjitsu (well since the Turtles anyway). Nolan's Batflicks brought KFM into the public consciousness, and revived Here's a thread for all of you who, like myself, have a background in martial arts or an interest in fight sports, or maybe are connoisseurs of kung fu flicks, or just enjoy a good cinematic smackdown.
