robbersdog49says...Not sure if funny bloke or really irritating!
I'm erring on the side of funny bloke, but he's walking a fine line there...
antsays...*comedy *learn
siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (Comedy, Learn) - requested by ant.
LooiXIVsays...Well I say if you don't like the movies don't watch em! ~(^_^~)
raviolisays...hey it's missing the video montage with all the wrong sounds he's talking about, ah well...
i have the same frustration with car chase sounds : tires don't make a screeching sound when rolling on dirt!!!
chingalerasays...How about the gratuitous (repeated & identical) sounds of ricochet foley during gunplay?....."Pew-Pew-Pewoiiiiiingggg!"
Here's a great run-down on the subject of swords and their practical applications in conflict or combat ➽➽➽➽➽➽

hpqpsays...And it's not just pointy sticks, but boom sticks too; notice how many times pistols, shotguns and ARs are loudly and dramatically "chick-chicked"? My favourite is when they do it several times (most often with a pistol or shotgun) before firing a single shot. Nice job spreading your rounds on the floor.
dahaunssays...Damn. Now I want a knife block that goes "SHHHINGGG!" everytime I take a knife out of it.
ChaosEnginesays...Hollywood movies aren't an accurate portrayal of real life? I am shocked and appalled to learn this.
Anyway, I remember being very disappointed the first time I drew a katana (THE BESTESTEST SWORD..... <jeremy_clarkson>IN THE WURLD</jeremy_clarkson>) and it didn't make a "sching" noise.
Apparently there is actually a trope for this. It's called Audible Sharpness. <- DO NOT CLICK THIS LINK.... that way lies madness.
VoodooVsays...Don't link tvtropes!!! What are you trying to do?!! suck us into the Internet forever?!
EvilDeathBeesays...I dunno if the katana was the best sword ever, but it's certainly the coolest
ChaosEnginesays...Oh christ, I'm sorry.
I... I didn't know.... jesus.... the horror.... what have I done?
edit: fixed it... I hope
Don't link tvtropes!!! What are you trying to do?!! suck us into the Internet forever?!
ChaosEnginesays...Oh come on. There is a type of sword called a bastard sword. Clearly that wins. For the name alone!

chingalerasays...The Bastard sword-
Wield that longsword well and you are pretty much the bad-boy on the sword-fighting block...Last thing to be uttered from the reciving-end of one was most likely, "You BASsstard!" many a time...

gorillamansays...This guy's channel is dangerously addictive. They're all these sub-five minute videos titled "A point about..." and I can't stop clicking on them. What about scimitars? What about the hoplite cuirass? I HAVE TO KNOW.
EvilDeathBeejokingly says...Naaah. How many shows have someone using a bastard sword and do the ol' "slice you in half but only until I sheath the sword do you split in half in a ridiculously over the top shower of blood"? Only the katana has that power

ChaosEnginesays...A good point and well made. Clearly you know your swordiness.
However, I still have an ace to play.
Sword-chucks motherfucker!
Hah! didn't see that one coming, did you?

FlowersInHisHairsays...It's all because Reality Is Unrealistic.

EvilDeathBeesays...There are two things one never expects, the Spanish Inquisition and Sword-Chucks

Paybacksays...My problem with movie guns is the "hand cannon" sound. Like in all the Dirty Harry movies. Every pistol shot seems to sound like a 50cal Barrett sniper rifle in a sewer pipe.
As cool sounding as it is wrong.
