The Shang-Chi Bus Fight Tricked You With This Sly Film Technique
Simu Liu’s training for this claustrophobic throw down definitely paid off. The only thing doling out more beats than Simu Liu is the pumpin’ soundtrack. Shang-chi and the legend of the ten rings has finally hit the theatres and I couldn’t wait to give my reaction to this full bus fight scene autopsy.
If you haven’t seen the behind the scenes footage of this action sequence allow me to fill you in. The bus is real, but the cityscape and traffic outside of the bus is all fake — it’s blue screened in. This isn’t a bad thing. In fact, it allows director Destin Daniel Cretton to pull off some innovative film tricks that make things like Matt Damon’s Bourne Identity police fight look amateurish.
This bus fight scene reaction video will breakdown every cool detail that Destin Daniel Cretton tried to hide from us. Shang-chi and the legend of the ten rings showcases some super fast martial arts moves by Simu Liu, but are they REALLY as fast as they look? This ain’t no Shaviversity fight scene autopsy, it’s a class at Fight Scene Film School!
BTW here are the vids I mention at the end:
