First Avenger lets talk cap fight scenes

[superkong 500]

Cap is probably marvel's most proficient fighter, with a combination of martial arts training, boxing etc.

What kind of things do you want to see in the movie's fight scenes? what's cap's fighting style gonna be like, and the acrobatics.

 

[Artistsean]

I would like to see a lot of tumbling. Cap using his shield a lot, for more than just throwing it at things, and a lot of Cap without his shield fighting. (Lots of bad guys think he is nothing without his shield.)
I want to see him knowledgeable about leverage, taking hits on purpose, stuff like that.
He should also be knowledgeable about battle strategies too, like war strategy. Previous battles, and what the best maneuvers and plans would be.

 

[Compi716]

Lots of jumping and flipping around. Really acrobatic stuff. And if that shield doesn't end up ricocheting all over the place, I will be one disappointed fanboy.

[Spider-Vader]

I want to see Cap take on Hulk solo in the Avengers movie.

 

[Dark Jaguar]

werd. been a minute since i've posted 'round these parts...

if Blonsky & the Hulks fight in TIH was a good sneak peek...

I'd like to see an agile Cap. It'd be really cool if they showed all of the athletic abilities of Cap.

It would also rock if there was more combat, unlike IM & TIH.
We saw glimpses of what those characters could do.

But, I want to see Cap in the thick of it through a good chunk of the movie. He did end up on the front lines, didn't he?

I kind of picture his fight scenes (especially with multiple enemies) as being remeniscent of the kinds of things Neo did in the Matrix movies...obviously not as superhuman but definitely an above-average ability to move fluidly through a battlefield engaging multiple targets...especially when those targets are enlisted men or that sort of thing.

There would be less martial arts maybe than the Matrix but I like the idea of Cap being limber and agile to the point that he works his way around a battlefield in an efficient manner with deadly effectiveness.

 

[Webhead2006]

i would say he should be acrobatic, have skilled hand to hand fighting techniques, some good moves with the shield. Then handy with other weapons like knifes, guns, bombs.

I would like to "see", the fights.
What I mean by that...no, herky jerky, what was that, camera work; featuring lots of shield slinging, Nazi smashin' acrobatics, and awe inspiring pesonification of Cap's skill and prowess.

AMEN to both of these suggestions! My thoughts exactly!

They could just have the Nazis standing round Cap in a circle while he systematically kicks them in the face using a conveniently placed pommel-horse.

[Brian Braddock]

Seriously though, I want at least one action scene were Cap does a succesion of backflips like 0:49 in this vid:-

Come to think of it, wasnt Cyril Raffaelli the Blonsky stunt double in TIH?

Get the guy in again.....................

"The skill of gymnastics, the kill of karate."

It'll only work if Cap sticks the landing.

 

[Punisher_MAX]

Cap HAS to do this to one guy and it has to be in slow motion like this, if he does something like this ill ****ing scream in the theater.

any shield attacks they do here would be sick too

[NEXUS 6]

I, personally, would like to see Cap be Patton proficient in terms of battlefield saavy, Achilles proficient in his shieldwork (plus some good old-fashioned shield tosses for good measure), Matt Hughes in terms of actual fighting style, and excellent parkour for good measure.

So I was watching the Deadliest Warrior on Spike and they had a guy who was proficient in the Spartan fighting style....when he was using the shield as a weapon it brought Cap to mind

 

[Webhead2006]

got any clips of it?

Kinda like that, only with a shield. Basically I want him to be really efficient, but not Batman efficient where it's kinda ugly, because Cap is more fantasy you can do stuff like this, maybe some acrobatics although I really REALLY hate those in movies.

 

[roach]

Cap's style should be a mix of boxing, judo and acrobatics

 

[mrsjohnnystorm]

Krav Maga would be the most suitable to Captain America. Presently used by the marines, and just simply breathtaking to watch.

Also very ironic to use a Hebrew art on Nazi soldiers too...

PS: My favorite is 2:58 - 3:36, great sequence for when an unarmed Cap has two Nazi pointing a gun to his head.

 

[ChickenScratch]

US Army Combatives (they used LINE then) at the time were based upon Boxing and Greco Roman wrestling so I think that's the way they should go with his hand to hand training to keep it authentic.

A more modern version of our Combatives like MCMAP.

guess i wasnt the only one thinking that...when i saw the guy do all these moves with it all i could think was "damn Cap better do this in the movie."

it also dawned on me that Cap is basically a Spartan. They both fight for their country, the perfect warrior, use shields, armored and amazing hand to hand fighters.

 

[roach]

basically I hope someone is working with Evans on his hand to hand and shield fighting

 

[Xploited]

Definitely going to agree with "seeing the fights". I'd like to see him fight with acrobatics in mind, but only for rolling. Not too much "wire-fu".
