Summer's coming up so we wanna talk action, but we're not in the mood for

let's pick a deep dive into five more brilliant moments, this time in action.

First up we got a brilliant little moment from The Raid, about 25 minutes in to

a stealthy raid up a gang controlled high rise, the heroes are discovered, their

guards are killed, their communication cut off and the lights are cut.

All of a sudden, they're trapped and they need to battle their way out to survive.

But before that happens they hole up in a stairwell to prepare as the big

dad puts a price on their heads over the loud speaker.

We hear a sound which the next cut connects to a glance which

a wonderful slope hand then connects to the door knob,

there's someone at the door, everyone gets in place, let's do this.

The sound is on, music and push inniness of the shots are all communicating very

clearly and conventionally that something is about to happen.

But then, we punch in on Jacka's face and his eyes twitch.

The punch in tells us something is happening internally and

our first guess would be fear but the head turn directs our focus elsewhere,

there's something else going on and then we see it.

Now, we know more than the characters and

the tension of dramatic irony is introduced, what's going to happen?

Will they realized the second threat in time?

So, in order to render the tension visual between a perceived threat in

one direction and the real unperceived threat in that other.

The director cut between two axis as indicated by the eyes,

one horizontal between man and door and one vertical between man and

unknown threat above and then the trigger is pulled.

the glow briefly illuminates their unsuspecting prey.

A shot in the face shining the glow, they are seen,

The position of the drafts tells us what they're racing towards, and then chaos.

explanation we understand the exact dynamics of the situation.

Tension is laid out before us with clearly delineated opposition and

stakes are obvious, the danger is visceral.

All too often bad action injures it's stars or kills off it's supporting cast to

no effect, it's the generic red shirt death and it can make action boring.

Why should we care about our heroes if their plot armor is so

If they can do parkour chases through the streets a day after their intestines were

eviscerated, we stop suspending our disbelief and even worse, paying

attention to what's happening, the stabs don't matter, so why should we worry?

because a single misplaced bullet costs them lives and we know exactly why.

And we see it coming like a runaway trolley that we're powerless,

If the raid is one brilliant little moment of clearly communicated visual action,

Mad Max Fury Road is one after another for about two straight hours.

Which sounds like it might get tedious or straight forward and boring, but Miller

manages to be so absolutely clever about it you don't even realize it's happening.

You see, Bruce Lee had it right, bad guys really only can attack one at a time and

We can really follow one line of action that quickly,but clever action directors

like Miller Stagger out the conflict, such that they aren't happening all at once.

Consider Idmon's battle of ten black belts,

it's really just one on one after one on one.

But it's staggered much more intricately than injure the dragon was, so

it looks like he's doing ten things at once.

He isn't, he's doing one thing, after one thing, after one thing,

Zigzagging between every character in the room so

that everyone is involved in the singular event.

So, sure, it looks like Furiosa and Max are fighting 18 different battles at once,

but in practice, we're not getting told 18 different stories.

We're being told one single story that just so happens to involve all 18 battles

and tracks linearly throughout them all, check it out.

(Sound) If I go back to narrate this clip like a book,

you'll see how linearly each bit flows into the next.

Stone Cold Steve Austin, here fires a torpedo directly into the steering wheel

so Max can't turn it anymore, it pulls out the steering wheel and

Prego and Redhead jump out, grab the bolt cutters and release his hand,

Furioso quickly attaches a make shift steering wheel but

they're headed straight for a rock and can't turn in time.

Joe is like, shit, my baby mama is about to get squished and

But she's okay, however her newly injured foot slips on her newly bleeding blood and

the newly damaged door gives way so she falls from the rig directly into the path

of Joe who swerves, rolls his truck and ends the pursuit.

That's a pretty god damn linear story in the action,

but look at how many people are involved.

Max, Furiosa, Blondie, Lindsay Lohan, Joe, and Andre the Giant,

all the major players have bit parts in this one minute of skirmish.

Miller is the master of finding clever ways to temporarily disable certain

that he can make way for others in the conflict without leading

anyone bouncing around awkwardly in the background.

Like Max here with his hand, this lets the sirens in Furiosa of shine or Joe and

gang here, this lets the rig get away to make space for the next conflict or

even the whole reason Joe is on his own in the first place.

Because the rest of his war band got stuck behind some rocks and he was the only
