The Most Ridiculous Bollywood Action Movie Scenes
The Coolest Rescue You Have Ever Seen
Video: YouTubeThis extremely intense fight scene is intensified even further with all the added pow! sounds. They happen all the time: when someone punches, when a sword is thrusted, when a cut to a different take is used, when someone takes a breath. There is no end to the use of pow! sounds, and rightly so.
I really do believe that more is more in this situation.
The Best Shot The East Has To Offer
Video: YouTubeLet me be the first to say that these guys are speed demons. Check out 0:48 when the hero loses his hat; no biggie though, he's gotta keep going. The action really get's going at 1:49 when the hero goes over a small bump and his bike plops over in the dirt. But the hero manages to roll himself to safety.
The second half of the clip is a series of bad shooting, when suddenly these bad guys in suits show up and pull what I believe is supposed to be pantyhose over their heads. What it looks like though is a silky burlap sack. It's a wonder that they even shot the hero at all.
Superman Ain't Got Nothin' On Mustache
Video: YouTubeThis is probably the best example of how ridiculous this genre is, and why you should share it with your children. Before you read what happens, watch it in the video embedded here. THIS is what is missing from pretty much every Superman movie ever made. Why has nobody ever done this?
Here's what happens: This man takes a shot to the chest, and NOT ONLY does the projectile deflect off him with a "ping" sound (scorching his shirt slightly, of course), it flies back and takes out the man who shot it. Genius.
Also, doesn't this guy kinda remind you of Nick Offerman's Ron Swanson from Parks and Recreation? The mustache is uncanny. Just saying.
Evil Americans vs. Awesome Indian Guy
Video: YouTubeIn pure chivalrous tradition, this man defends a damsel in distress from evil, rude, and overzealous Americans (cause c'mon, we're all like that, right?) You can tell something big's about to go down at 0:27, when you can just feel the "Oh, hell no" look coming onto the guy's face.
He proceeds to beat the bad guys by splashing condiments in their faces, which for some reason burn like acid (maybe they're all laced with chili powder?), and with a severely overdramatized table throw at 0:48.
Just when you think he's done for, he comes back to life at 1:05.
Most Awesome Cigarette Lighting Ever
Video: YouTubeFirst of all, let's take a fine look at that double jump front kick in the beginning. Two feet, three guys. Just watch this badass pull one cigarette out of the box, throw the rest away, and aim so well with his toy pistol that he grazes it just enough to light it and not annihilate it.
Also, if you watch closely at :21, the now-lit tip of the cigarette has landed in the guy's hand, but no matter. This guy's a cop. Just flip that baby right around and you've got yourself a finely lit cigarette.
The Coolest Bottle Drinker In The World
Video: YouTubeGod, I wish I could open bottles with my fingers. Make things a WHOLE lot easier. Watch this amazing clip of just how badass a guy who can throw a mean bottle can be (also, how badass a man who doesn't leave a BIT of backwash in his bottles can be).
Anyway, this clip shows a man who should be an NFL quarterback (despite his stomach/mustache) chucking a recently chugged soda bottle at a villain's head as he runs away.
From a good 50 feet, the throw is a direct hit, and smashes the guy's head, knocking him out.
Following this, there's a brilliantly choreographed fight scene in which a man prevents a knifing with his teeth, somehow not pulling a Steve-O and cutting the corners of his mouth with it (ChapStick, anybody?).
Man Lightly Kicks Everyone Into Another Dimension
Video: YouTubeThis guy is so awesome that he doesn't even have to actually kick any of these bad guys for them to get the picture. Just the thought of that spinning double kick is enough for them to keel over in pain. And just take a look at how hard this guy is hitting that big, evil dude in the purple. That is some hard-hitting patty-cake. What I wonder is, how did those other guys not even get touched and get knocked out, yet Mr. Purple doesn't feel a thing?
Oh, and don't forget to watch the end, when this guy is able to suspend himself over Mr. Purple and repeatedly karate chop him in the neck. Gold for your eyes, folks.
