STUNT MEN DESERVE AN OSCAR CATEGORY. That is all.
-
I like that he recognizes the importance of everyone involved, especially the cameraman in The Protector.
-
His fighting expertise is obviously appreciated, but I love that he gives the camera operators and other staff their fair due. That shows true class. At time of writing, I’m really looking forward to seeing mr. Adkins in John Wick 4.
-
Scott Adkins is one of the most underrated action talents in the business. This guy should be in the MCU. Id take him as Adam Warlock or Captain Britain or Doctor Doom even. He is huge and frightening when in any fight pose. He can brawl. He can wrestle. He can do Jujitsu, Crav Magra, Judo, Muai Thai, street fighting, and more.
-
"Jackie Chan is the master of using furniture and whatever elements are around him in the scene". So he has mastered the best fighting discipline that ever exists: Ikea-do.
-
Considering how many times Scott plays the bad guy, the real man is so humble and a great sense of humor. And he speaks with such experience!
-
"it's a Hong Kong movie so probably, he actually stepped on his head" Oh man 🤣
-
I've always wanted this guy for Batman. A legit martial artist in a proper movie
-
"He stole the guys girl...then beat him up for it...not a nice guy that karate kid" LOL!!! Excellent Scott!!!
-
Scott Adkins is so horribly underrated. He's a brilliant actor, brilliant physicality, and just seems like a really great person to have on your team.
-
I actually love the fact that Tony got tired during the fight scene. It adds to the realism. Nothing is worse than a 15 min fight scene and the character doesn’t even break a sweat. Come on now. I love every movie he’s ever done. The protector is one of my faves of all time.
-
You can tell he is such a nice guy as he remembers every stuntman on set of movies
-
The first Scott Adkins movie i saw was Undisputed and I actually thought he was Russian in real life😂😂
-
The way he speaks is so lovely and soothing! He's obviously highly knowledgeable in his field and this video shows that.
-
That whole "He'd never see it coming" about The Karate Kid still just cracks me up even though I've seen it 100 times. Well played, sir, and so dryly.
-
This guy introduced me to martial arts with his Boyka character in the Undisputed movies. Great memories
-
Hes seems so intimidating and staunch in his movie roles, but is actually a nice guy!! Definitely a fan
-
Scott Adkins, martial arts actor extraordinaire, carries himself with grace and class. What a guy!
-
Scott has to be one of my top 5 all-time best Martial Artists. Incredible talent. I only wish he had more opportunities to show his acting skills. Just brillinat.
-
One of my favorite parts of this isn't even the fight explanations, it's just the personal side comments and respect for all the other stunt people and martial artists. Just the little, "That's Ken Lo! One of Jackie Chan's team, amazing kicker!" - especially because Scott himself is an S-tier kicker. Or the the one about Tony Jaa, "Tony didn't know that we wore wires in movies, so he just thought you were supposed to be able to jump like that, trained himself to do it". Plus of course just the admiration for all the martial arts stars like Jackie and Donnie and etc.
