Stuntwomen React to Bad & Great Hollywood Stunts 9

how fantastic is keanu in his movement he really looks like he knows martial arts i know kung fu he rubs him that's jimmy's uncle oh what let me call him real quick thanks to raycon for sponsoring this video stick around to the end to see how you can get 15 off your next order hey everybody welcome back to another episode of stuntman react we are here with amy johnson stunt woman extraordinaire kicks punches flips falls that's what i do thanks for having me guys nice to be back it's great to have you back we have some really cool clips to show you today one was in the comments the last video i looked it up and it blew my mind so amy is going to give us professional insight into how these stunts were done what makes them good what could make them better who knows it's going to be exciting let's jump in [Music] yeah give him the fingers totally classy right here i love that there's a woman in the trunk by the way what and the guy with his gun just broke the trunk lever so he needs to get the woman out of the trunk of the car wait what oh my god what a silly oh this is pretty crazy yeah cars aren't aerodynamic that's the thing at any point they can flip and just hit you and knock you out [Music] oh there she is oh my goodness this was a long fall how in the world was this shot like they dropped a car for real actually they got in trouble for dropping a car into like environmentally protected land [Laughter] a lot of this was filmed the cadillac suspended from a helicopter there's also some blue screen work yeah but a lot of the stuff is just actually a car off the ground with the actors in it going ah wow i feel like the wide shots that's legit like that's actually happening 100 and then like you'd punch in i guess to shoot your close-ups they did they did some blue screen but i'm sure they also just did you know there's a leaf blower you know they're probably on the ground right there but in the earlier parts when he's still falling you know there's the cameras mounted on the car you can see the camera starting to yank the hood off the front of the car as the thing seesaws back and forth well oh that's shady and that's that's a really good indicator of how dangerous this actually is because if that thing flew off and hit the dude that knocks him out he hits the ground you know hold on though if the camera is mounted and they're like free falling what happens to the camera in the footage once it's on the ground i feel like it hits the ground they get the shot once it's almost at the ground another skydiver comes in and he's like i wonder maybe he checks the film canister [Applause] yo they straight up got burnt up [Music] wait what's your name why didn't what oh and then an extra parachute okay oh yeah then they had to f sorry it wasn't it they started to fly through the windmills [Laughter] that was insane that was some uncharted stuff seriously yeah love it when you guys leave comments for cool stunts to react to they don't have to be from movies can be from anything [Music] amy what did you do specifically in this movie so our coordinator maggie mcdonald brought a team in and we basically put together different choreography and different styles based off of pen shocks a lot some tkd and muay thai for certain characters i mainly worked with lauren and lauren's one of my favorite people to work with i say that working with her is like butter like kerrygold butter you know what i mean like grass-fed just smooth we came up with a bunch of choreography and then we performed in front of all the animators at disney and in our little mocap suits and then they used a bunch of our movements and put it together and made it beautiful for the day we were just doing these things hundreds of times in front of the animators and then they were like okay cool what would it look like if you jumped down and attacked an enemy and so we'd jump off a trampoline give them different poses and so i was kind of doing pen shocks a lot style she was more muay thai so we were incorporating kicks and a little bit of trapping so you can kind of tell the differences in the styles of martial arts one's a little more grounded aggressive fighter and the other one is a little more flowy more salat so it's fun to play with different styles like that i think with animated fight scenes you have a lot of opportunity to work camera angles and really work the camera in as a participant a third participant in the fight you know in real life you have near misses and you have dodges and things like that in animation you can take those dodges and you can make them millimeters away from hitting so you can really tighten those things up i love to see that precision kind of emphasized and brought to life in animated fight scenes i think they did a really good job on this definitely watch the movie if you haven't what are your favorite martial arts films the first time i was on here i brought one of the fight scenes from crouching tiger hidden dragon that's my all-time favorite martial arts film and then also the matrix because it was just so groundbreaking and it like brought all these different asian styles over to the west and we were like whoa what is this um and it just it just kind of like changed the trajectory of action films we've looked at the dojo fight scene right in this episode on the show pull it up one thing that stands out for me is in the choreography there's there's intention behind every move just like you know you need intention behind your visual effects or special effects to make them feel special you also need intention behind your choreography because you could just have fights when somebody's throwing a thousand punches and somebody's throwing a thousand blocks up and you'll get bored in a couple seconds because you know if you don't intention you don't tell a story behind it that it doesn't work it's like dancing right it's like bop bop bop and there's those nice break moments so that your eyes don't get exhausted with what's going on i think people have like a five to ten second exhaustion rate you know with their eyes and then they're just like okay that's too much so this is just really nice balance but the best thing for me is that the actors are doing so much of this and they trained you know to look good which is just everything [Music] like that kick he did that kick pretty good how fantastic is he in his movement keanu like he he really looks like he knows martial arts you know they both do they they're killing it when he does that flip you can see him grab his wires that's the thing he does multiple times so he does the backflip he always grabs his wallet but it hurts so badly if you get those wires cut like just right here and they go and you have bruises and just a mess so it i totally understand grabbing never even thought of that you always assume like oh you're wearing wires it's safe and easy oh my gosh i've gotten so many terrible like wire rashes around the neck or like just major bruises because it hurts because all your weight like especially if somebody's pulling you or it's an aggressive motion and it's connected to your body and it's like oh so it'll just pull against all your skin or whatever you're wearing so it can definitely be painful sometimes the camera angles everything is so good it is so good so one of the key rules of filmmaking is the 180 degree rule basically if on your frame one person's on frame left one person's on frame right if you go to the other side of that line between them suddenly they flip sides and one person's now on frame right that was previously on frame left it gets really confusing especially in fight scenes the problem is sometimes in fight scenes moves read better from one side than the other so you need to get back and forth across the lines lazy filmmakers will just jump the line talented filmmakers like the wachowskis will make a point of using shots in between the 180 degree jumps to hide that jump or let you flow naturally so for example or is on the left boom cut to the foot shot okay we did the jump we use the spin to motivate the jump we're offline now morpheus on the right so we jump the line but we jump the line by cutting into the foot catch and the spin which are filmed on the line letting us then jump to the other side not feel like the actors have just suddenly switched places so they're giving us a full 360 and the camera's moving all over the place but we're never getting lost because the wachowskis have mapped out their camera shots specifically to give us those transition beats it's all very subtle it just happens you don't think about it but suddenly you have a fight and it feels alive you have camera work that feels alive and it all flows and they've done that puzzle behind the scenes to make sure that everything locks into place one of the best fights ever seriously i don't believe it what is this movie this is above the law i think it also has another title corey uen directed this that's jimmy's uncle wait jimmy wong freddie and jimmy wong oh what that's i guess this is their uncle let me call him real quick jimbo hey man hey what's up i want to confirm something with you so there's a movie called above the law is did your uncle direct this movie is it corey yuan yeah yeah that's a yes your uncle directed this movie what the heck he uh went to the same opera school almost the same class as jackie chan young everyone that has the last name yen took it because they did it in honor of their master huh that is nuts dude all right hey jimmy i appreciate that man thanks for clearing that one up okay talk soon all right love you bye all right so i guess this is jimmy wong's slash freddie wong's uncle's movie damn that was cool that's so cool is that the fastest way down for sure ow right there would be so painful what the heck how do you not hurt yourself right i mean that's pretty rough [Music] [Laughter] yeah he doesn't even bother with the wig at a certain point just blatant face opened a camera in slow motion boom what did he land on or sure yeah he right there is there a pad that's out of frame because of the stairs oh it's gotta be yeah like you can't see the ground right are they on wires it's gotta be wires it looks like a wire to me does it there's a little float i feel like that's gotta be a wire you're right crazy that was was that just another chinese guy he's a random chinese dude that's so impressive is he doing that it looks like it wait it's reversed you think so yeah wait what that's so smart you're right it's reversed ruining the magic one shot at a time oh that is cool like that didn't look like it had any wire assist it looked like somebody just jumped backwards and landed like that i think this choreography is so creative with the the chain whip and the poles there's so many like moments of detail put into getting their reactions yeah if you think of fight scenes all just getting cool moves but it's like you need to really find your times to get your acting in dang right into a coffin all right thanks jimmy's dad i mean i was like thanks jimmy's uncle i go that way you go this way yes okay this is a full-on brush so much [Music] oh look at the camera look at the camera go back perfectly look at the camera work look how perfect this is that's so so good dude if this is anyone else they're gonna go he's gonna go into the kip up and then they're gonna cut and it's gonna do the kip up and then they're gonna land and then they keep going but he keeps it in one shot and he keeps going the timing of that too it's just like so i remember jackie chan talking about how they have like sounds like you know they do the fight sounds where they're using them for cues it's like when a guy's gonna approach and start his combination from the side he'll give a certain shout that cues jackie that he's coming and so they're probably doing the same thing here jackie probably gives a cue and he hits the ground and those guys didn't give a cue when the push is going to happen so jackie starts his kip and it's all just hidden as i'm going if you guys want to see how jackie chan does all of his stuff look up jackie chan my stunts it is a full-on like two-hour breakdown of jackie telling you all of his secrets and he he choreographs the fight scene with you and it's the best thing ever it's the best it's crazy how much of their stunt work is just the same scrappy tricks that you have to do when you're just trying to make your own like homemade fight scenes i think there's a moment in jackie chan my stunts where he talks about how anyone can do what he's doing you just have to like have the dedication and rep it out just keep doing all your takes you just gotta keep doing it like it takes me forever it's gonna take you forever but you just have to dedicate your time to whatever you're doing speaking of doing a take a million times remember that scene in the first spider-man wow they did that for real it took him like 140 tries yeah yeah they literally just dropped everything and he caught it all in the tray and then in that moment they were both like holy [ __ ] yeah yeah like we really didn't how does the apple land like that it doesn't roll do they have sticky stuff on the bottom right you can see how sticky everything is everything is sticky imagine if you were out of focus for that one shot you're fired anybody can do it don't have to be jackie chan you just need a lot of film and a lot of time no wonder you man no one knew man that's so good man i love that was that chris tucker doing the flip or is that a stunt double that's probably stunt double and how cool would it be to be chris tucker's character in this where it's like you just get to be a guy who's not particularly good at stunts just jackie chan is your mentor and then you would film a whole movie with them yeah be amazing yeah rush hour two well rush hour one is like nine out of ten and the rush hour two is a ten ten yeah and it's rare that the second one's better than the first one all right yo guys all right
