Equilibrium: Final fights HD





Besides being one of my favourite sci-fi movies, with a very innovative idea with the gun katas, compared to videos from any systems that are not fiction, there are 3 very important rules. The action fight choreography in this movie is heavily influenced by FMA hubud, a bit of Japanese styles, Wing Chun chi sao and pure theatrics.

1 Never do any sweeping on any of your own body parts, do NOT let the gun come in between your body parts and the opponent. Why not should be a no brainer, if you can’t figure it out don’t buy a gun.

2 Don’t point your gun at anything you don’t want to injure or kill. I have seen videos with combative instructors during the exercise with live ammo pointing their gun at their buddy, while transitioning to another task.

3 Titles are not a guarantee of quality in every field, like a mechanic he can fix your car but can’t even make a sandwich. I have duelled against various great grand masters, grand masters and masters and have not lost to any of them, to my surprise it was very easy. The reason why is simple I spar with all my students, I don’t care what rank anyone has and don’t hold back when I attack, many instructors are attacked worse than a girl fight due to the fear and respect as an authority figure by their students.
