RE: Understanding Action Comedy (A Video Analysis of Jackie Chan Movies)
I made my first comment halfway through the video; I love the point he makes about cutting before and after the hit, as opposed to actually showing the hit twice.
It's such a subtle difference, but it's completely noticeable, and becomes one of those things that you can't quite put your finger on as to why the Hong Kong action films were so much better than the Hollywood versions.

He makes a lot of good point, and I learned alot watching his older vids (I think the newer ones should be awesome as well). I've been trying to contact the author, but no luck! Would be great to have that person onboard here as well :)
