This is why the Fast & Furious franchise is so popular. It's just pure unadulterated escapism.

I miss Jackie Chan era martial arts movies. He and his gang really codified on-screen martial arts. The Matrix was great, and it's not it's fault, but ever since it came out, movies have been obsessed with the slow-motion action scene. Movies have to earn the slo-mo!

One of the things I love about Toku is that it does not do the ridiculous cutting and editing in fight scenes like Hollywood blockbusters. It's honestly dizzying for me. Toku does it for sure, especially as a needs for special effects, but in general, the fight choreography has flow, rhythm, and cadence.

We are just now seeing a resurgence of "stunt-people directed action scenes" in the west while Asia has been doing it for decades if not longer.

Oh boy I could talk about Toku for days....
