[Episode] The Rise of Gun Fu | Video Essay
Added 2021-09-30 13:45:25 +0000 UTCTime to finish up our journey through the history of Gun Fu!
In truth, Gun Fu frequently lives in Hollywood mid to low-budget productions, which is a blessing and a curse. It's hard to say precisely which film contributed to continuous evolution, as these films all have limited impact. Still, it also means that Hollywood has the budget to constantly experiment and reinvent the form. In this video, while we appreciate the evolution of Gun Fu, let's also take some time to enjoy how almost every movie mentioned is an original film.

Ooh! Some of the things you should also look into Tony, is how Gun-Fu slowly turned into "Gun-jitsu" with the 87eleven guys trying out that type of choreography in the Jason Statham films "Safe", "Parker", "Killer Elite", "Mechanic" etc. I felt like John Wick was the final result from all that experimenting!
