I like stephen fry, but I think that the visual assembly of words in that fashion is overused (there is a term for it that escapes me at the moment)

Kinetic Typography, its even right in the title of the video.

Classic-style animation for a music vid:

Oh, that's very cool. And the music is a fun blend of hip-hop and big-band, too, and feels just right for the look of the thing.

...and they're Japanese? Wow.

One for RevDark (probably for him to laugh at, but I've never been able to accurately predict his reactions)...

I can't imagine spending that much time reproducing that sword so accurately and then expecting it to be a sword.  Even with the angry wall of meat wielding it, it is less effective than a weapon a quarter (or even an eighth) would be.  Silly.  Silly.  Silly.
But fear not; there are sillier; this is the one I send all my class to.

Re: big sword

snerk. and once again people are treating things that probably weigh more than sledgehammer (and should be used as such) like a sword.

There is a reason all the big longswords that were created in response to knight and pike warfare had freaking HUGE handles.

You need leverage to move that much metal around.

The best the people in video could do was to let it fall on the crate.

That's a bit of a myth Sweno - even the big zweihanders top out at 4-8 pounds.  The heave and go sword is urban and movie myth.  They are highly agile weapons when used appropriately.

Which is, if anything, even more frightening.

I must say, I'm impressed at how well they were able to keep their balance while doing that. I kept expecting one of them to slip.

I think I've posted one or two of this guys's videos in the forums before; if I didn't, or for those missed them before, what he does is with clever effects work and editing, he blends pieces of footage from many sources, most of them vintage, to create what he calls a "Premake" -- a trailer for a famous film as if it had actually been made 30, 40 or more years earlier.
Here's his take on the as-yet unreleased Marvel "Avengers" movie:

That's something me grandfather also did with his old Pontiac when he delivering his nieces' birthday present, of cause he also took the back seat out.

Re: The buster sword.
Here is a nice lowlander Claymore style blade.  An anti-equine more than an anti-personel sword.  Huge, but in competent hands a pleasure to use; and capable of some highly accurate cutting.

My Showa era Showato(possibly gendaito) Katana.

And for comparison.  A sledge hammer.

Kudos to your photographer, Shayne. And to you; from a layman's view, you have good form.
