Scene between Hundred Eyes and Michelle Yeoh character is AMAZING


Choreography, music, emotions.. everything was just perfect. I haven't seen such perfectly executed scene in a long long time. And that is saying a lot since I watch a lot of Action movies. The way Hundred Eyes tries to catch her and she evades perfectly countering his every move is just really cool.

This series is amazing. Hope more people watch it.

I love this show. Just watched both season in a week. They need to gear up and get season 3 going. But on your topic, that scene is beautiful. Hundred eyes is up there with some of the best characters in tv.

Hundred Eyes is a great character, but at the same time he is simply not credible.

In an empty practice room, fighting one on one, I'll buy that the hears / senses his opponent and his opponent's moves and is quick enough to react to them. But never ever during an all-out battle such as the raid on the crusaders camp when there is screaming and fighting all around him. That is simply impossible.

I hear you. But that's where I sit back and enjoy a tv show for what it is and try not to analyze every good moment so that the joy is sucked right out of it. Not saying you do that but that's what was and is so great about movies and shows, it captures some of the imagination that we had as kids and allows me similar joy. Sure superman probably can't turn back time by flying around the world really fast a bunch of times, nor is there really a superman I assume, but *beep* it sure made child hood and even from time to time adult hood arguments over who's the most kick ass fun.

Here's another one I had the other day. John wick vs John Rambo... my argument is John Rambo took his survival knife out, cut himself open, pulled smoking hot shrapnel out of the wound with his bare fingers, made a fire, lit a torch, burned his own wound to seal it, rested a few minutes and then got up and killed a hundred dudes... is it all believable? Not really, but enough to make me say Rambo is the truth.
