I should just watch the Stick Fighting Video

Ever wanted to know what this still amazing stick-figure fighting video would look like with real people? WONDER NO MORE:


Does it make watching a full hour-and-a-half movie where a stuntman "acts" (and is, unfortunately, the best actor of the lot) worth it? No. Was it pretty damn awesome? Yes. I wouldn't recommend seeing the movie Ninja, not even for all that Ryan Reynolds' doppleganger-esque stunt double looks fucking amazing with his shirt off. (He's not even shirtless all that much!) It suffers from "What These People Need Is A Honky" syndrome, in addition to the aforementioned horrid acting (the guy in the video going "KILL HIM!" is probably the worst).

But that clip is pretty fucking sweet, no? Just thought I'd share.

Mmmm, pretty boys. Haha just kidding -- it's not so much an enticement for me. So is it entertainingly bad or just boring?

Alas, just boring. That's worse than it being bad, you know? Make me groan and you're at least memorable. Be boring and I start to tune out.

Yeah, I know. They're two entirely different things. If it's just boring, then I'm not going to waste my time on it. If you're gonna be bad, at least be laughably bad and make me cringe/groan/whatever. Give me and my friends something more to talk about than just how dull you are.
