If you forget the fact that Jackie gets doubled a lot in this fight, there isn't much wrong with this one. It got all of Sammos trade mark choreography put into one long fight scene and even ken Lo gets to do some of his trade mark kicking! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=fDkQh7X_ZGs

Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	it wasn't just injury; the production ran way over budget and behind on the deadlines they had to hire six units shooting around the clock. Jackie wasn't there for a lot of it.

You think they did the choppy-effect on the tattooed men fight because of the doubling? I noticed it was especially easy to see the double then. Eric Jacobus The Stunt People

That's the word on the streets, at least.

That "effect" is done to fix glaring problems with continuity, speed (if they forget to undercrank), or some other things they can't fix in the editing room. If they do slow motion choppiness, usually that means they didn't think to shoot it in slow motion (or didn't want to), and later realized/decided it should be slow and had to slow it in post. I doubt Sammo did it for "effect". Eric Jacobus The Stunt People

In Ashes of Time it's used in all the fights and in Don't Give A Damn it's also used for a moment when Biao is about to fight the 2 western guys in the final there it's used to put more tension in the fight!
