Seriously, I need a gif of that 100 hit combo she did on that one guy.

Seconded.

So that is the thread were we post a bunch of non sequitur’s? Is this show worth watching or is it white ppl karate?

depends on if you like wuxia style fighting.

angelpalm · 2015-11-23T22:00:26.000Z

I like good choreography based on real techniques but I am guessing this is a bunch of slow wide punchy 80’s stuff? I’ll give it a try

do you know what wuxia is? cause if i said do you like wuxia and you think 80s american action…that really makes no sense. if your lookin for realistic action…this isnt the place.

angelpalm · 2015-11-23T22:43:58.000Z

Pretty sure most ppl on this site know about wuxia snowflake. But whatever fuckboi, akready said I would watch it, so you can go back to being a pretend karate movie expert.

Don_Barracuda · 2015-11-24T00:21:29.000Z

Not really feeling this show, its a teen drama script with R rated action.

When the action starts its great! That warehouse fight was insane.

Nice

@maxx shut up nerd.

The Widow has proven herself to be quite formidable. I was expecting the Barons to be more like politicians based on Quinn being like a southern dandy in the pilot, but it’s nice to see they can get their hands bloody. Quinn and his psycho progeny with the inferiority complex gotta go though.

The Widow going Berserker Barrage X on that henchman was so beastly. Dude had a bad day.

So far the choreography has been good and the world building allows for more suspension of disbelief in terms of the action. There definitely will be more sci-fi/fantasy elements we’re going to see later on.

Another good thing is how they make sure to have at least 2 solid action scenes each ep.

po_pimpus · 2015-11-25T04:24:24.000Z

Quinn is a badass too though. I’m expecting all the Barons to be pretty awesome fighters in their own right. Quinn’s son is obviously the exception to this rule… Probably why he’s trying to seed up the little blonde hussy.

This is a world ruled by strength. If you don’t have it, you don’t live very long.

Yeah it is cool to see that the head hancho’s may very well be the most dangerous ones in a fight. I’d love to see a scene where someone calls out a Baron and be like " You wouldn’t be shit without your Clippers. You’re just a weak man/women guarded by strong men/women willing to fight for you" Baron be like

“Oh really? Give us some space boys/girls”

Clippers back up

“Alright then. You think I’m just a weak man/woman that hides behind strong men/women? Well here’s your chance to prove it”

Guy attacks

Baron slaughters him with ease

“ANYONE ELSE THINK I’M A WEAK MAN/WOMAN SURROUNDED BY STRONG MEN/WOMEN?!”

“No Baron!”

“Good…”

Why do people always try that triangle choke shit? They KNOW they’re gonna get picked up…

You can counter the slam if you grab onto their ankle before they pick you up. No, I ain’t an expert, just saw it in a couple of mma matches.

LOL Quinn… Escapes a fight to the death with the Widow, lets his wife talk that good shit, then go bangs his side-piece in the room next to his injured son and bitchy wife.

Boss status confirmed.

BB_Hoody · 2015-11-30T08:19:00.000Z

Wow Baron is off the chain, gives no fucks. Cheating on his wife right in the other room knowing full well that his wife knows. Guess when you have power like that you can do whatever
