Does anyone know who did the fight choreography for Serenity? IMDB isn't very helpful.

Tuan Jim - 2009-05-15 Whoever it is did a really good job.
I loved how the Summer Glau-chick uses WuShu, the agent with a sword guy uses Karate, etc.
It's neat that they all have very distinct styles.

zatojones - 2009-05-15
that was a pretty cool scene

Who needs a reason to fight anyway? I sure don't need some subliminal message.

Outside of a Tony Jaa movie, I don't think I've ever seen someone pretend to kick people's asses who looked more like she actually was just wrecking dudes

Camonk - 2009-05-15 I'll join you, if it means seeing more fight scenes like that. No problem. Let's do this. Let's write some letters and shit.

SharoKham - 2009-05-15 Count me in, too. Fucking A.

Count me in.

Thank you mysterious black man, you've saved us all with your formidable 'standing awkwardly' technique.

chumbucket - 2009-05-15
credit is also due for the folks she tossed around, great stuntwork there

SRP - 2009-05-15
I was trying to figure out why the music was so familiar:
"Night Fight" by Tan Dun & Yo Yo Ma for Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. That soundtrack was on my "studying music" playlist for two years of college - because seriously, yo yo ma is amazing.
|
SRP - 2009-05-15 I meant the intro music, not the electro part once they start fighting.
|
bopeton - 2009-05-16 The rest of the music is "Leave Home" by The Chemical Brothers
|
IrishWhiskey - 2009-05-15
Why, oh why, wasn't this included on the DVD?
|
La Loco - 2009-05-15
She looka'lika'man.

|
wtf japan - 2009-05-15 That's a deal-breaker ladies!
|
SharoKham - 2009-05-15 Not particularly, I don't think.
|
Baldr - 2009-05-15
She's a lot faster, but the scene they've mapped out has her doing thing that aren't physically possible.
But 1:40 - 1:45 was wonderful.
|
|
Baldr - 2009-05-15 All I'm saying is that a movie with space cowboys and black ninjas that has semi-realistic fight scenes is better than a movie with space cowboys and black ninjas with unrealistic fight scenes.
I am a man of simple tastes.
Now go cook me a better space-cowboy-ninja omelet.
Bitch.
|
Aoi - 2009-05-16 She made it look a hell of a lot more realistic than what made the final cut. And I guarantee you that all the flat-out bullshit things were thrown in by Whedon to further emphasize his Waif's ULTIMATE PROWESS.
With Buffy, it'd make some sense, super-strength or whatnot. Crazy Girl was just supposed to be psychic, I thought, and not telekinetic-psychic, either. And she is neither fast nor strong enough to make even the plausible moves look good, let alone the implausible ones.
And she is not ugly.

I don't remember any baseball caps in the scene.

Squidmojo - 2009-05-15
I could watch this woman break faces for hours
|
sosage - 2009-05-15
This brought to my attention that action scenes now days have a lot of unnecessary 'people running around aimlessly' in the background. Even she gets annoyed by it and throws something into one of the runner's spines.
|
fatatty - 2009-05-15
FAKE!
By that I mean Fucking Awesome Kick Explosion.
|
thirteen3seven - 2009-05-15
Goddamn.
For comparison's sake, I hopped onto YouTube and found a copy of the fight scene in the actual movie (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwVqW6J4FRc). Is it a surprise that this is miles above it? Better choreography, better editing, better everything.
|
Grace Mugabe - 2009-05-16 I can't imagine how frustrating it must be, after being part of creating something like this, to only have a sub-standard version see the light of day. Thank God for the internet.

zerobackup - 2009-05-15
Great fight scene setup, awful movie. Yeah I said it, Serenity was awful.
|
IrishWhiskey - 2009-05-16 You said it, but unfortunately you can't take it back.
|
Charles - 2009-09-14 It wasn't nearly as good as the show. Maybe it was awful, but I think it was mainly because he just wanted to wrap up everything he would have been able to wrap up in a couple seasons if Fox hadn't canceled it.
|
FABIO - 2011-04-02 Out of all the characters in the series, they decided to take the worst one (sociopath rape-happy bounty hunter) and use him for the movie.
|
IrishWhiskey - 2011-07-07 Er, no. Those two quite different looking black men were actually different actors and characters.
...well this is awkward.
|
bopeton - 2009-05-16
I don't know what "Serenity" even is but this is a badass fight scene.
|
Robin Kestrel - 2009-05-16
I liked the movie, but yeah, this rehearsal take just makes the actual scene look bad by comparison. Part of it is the superior choreography and camerawork, but a lot of it is that I have no trouble believing that Bridget Riley can kick ass.
|
Persephone S. Tight - 2009-05-19
I watched this while listening to Los Saicos, which made it even better.
Now to watch it with the Spriggs rib sex song...
|
Walker - 2009-05-20
I haven't seen this movie, but I'd like to think that plot is driven by a woman who seeks vengeance for the recent cancellation of her gym membership.
|
Testicles of Doom - 2009-05-20
When I first saw the title, I thought it was "Serendipity bar fight stunt rehearsal".
I didn't remember Kate Beckinsale opening a can of whoop as on John Cusack.... so five for not being completely senile.
|
keinsignal - 2009-05-21
Hell, I liked Serenity *and* its fight scenes, and I'm still really fucking glad I saw this.
|
Xiphias - 2009-05-21
I wish white people movies would use people who could actually fight instead of 55-pound girls who move slower than molasses.
|
Lies, lies, LIES! - 2009-07-18
I really want to see Bridget Riley in "Bridget Riley Beats Up Everyone."
90 solid minutes of her just kicking people and leaping over stuff.
