here’s the thing about quick cuts & fast edits: every cut HAS to be intentional. IMO if you’re cutting quickly just to hide the double or work around an actor that can’t do choreo, you lose the impact/story in your Action. I always point to Pedicab Driver as the...

Like I don’t see this intention behind these cuts here. The performances from the Stunt Team are already doing the work for you. You don’t have to help them out by adding two unnecessary cuts in there. It doesn’t make sense!

I also don’t see the point in adding extra frames for this Scorpion that the Stunt Peformer is executing perfectly. It already looks nasty. If you just used a really good take of the wreck instead, it would still sell the animalistic violence this scene is trying to portray IMO!

"every cut HAS to be intentional. IMO if you’re cutting quickly just to hide the double or work around an actor that can’t do choreo, you lose the impact/story in your Action." 100% Perfect example:

Pedicab Driver also works because we know where the fighters are at as an oppose to the cuts skewing the geography of the location.

And further to this point, even in those quick cuts you need to see some moves and hits that look legit. Sammo Hung and his team can sell these shots because they've trained their whole lives for it and, crucially, don't mind getting a little fucked up for real

What I see is that those guys work based on the idea that "more cuts"="more speed" but they do not have the notion that sometimes you gotta hold on some interesting compositions or struggles to give the scene an interesting rhythm
