John Wayne- (Fight scenes)

[@afranks8566]

The master of the telegraph punch!!

[@kelvinkloud]

wayne carried a lot of power in his crosses. he was a rangy raw boned very strong athlete as a youth. then in his late 20's he filled out more. people forget he was recruited to play lineman at usc, same team that won natl championship. he played some until he wrecked his shoulder.... think about that for a sec., you wouldve had to have been a very good athlete & old school strong back then to play. he was rawbone 220's in youth & then added another 15lbs. his punches would hurt a lot.

[@linkskywalker5417]

More than the punches from many martial artists. Seriously, they need to get better at training thenselves or else they'll be fighting like GTA 5 characters.

[@williamreside5573]

It really illustrates how many times The Duke sucker punched his opponents. Then again, you string together scenes from your movies and the patterns (of the fight coordinators) start to show. It really was the golden age of fight scenes.

[@theironfox2756]

This is how superman should fight. He would watch cowboy movies as a child and imitate the punches.

[@marcuslyles4999]

That would be great for him too

[@christianmoon3572]

For all the fancy choreography and special effects they have today, these fights look way more realistic to me.

[@haydenysidro9388]

Mostly because they didn't have them back then but your right it these fights do more realism

[@StarchildeX]

These fights look fake AF! Hong Kong choreography and martial arts make John Wayne look like stupid😂

[@linkskywalker5417]

And people say GTA 5's fighting mechanics are unrealistic.

[@mannymagnus5559]

​@@StarchildeX John Wayne definitely shows some martial art techniques in his fights scenes this is not the MCU

[@levijack2015]

These fights are like actual fights aye

[@billanthony7896]

Part of the formula for every John Wayne film... At least one fist fight. My personal favorite was when he took on 'Mr. Sweet' in "Big Jake."

[@shadowman2192]

Bill Anthony Theirs actually more than a few of his westerns that oddly didn’t contain a fist fight. Like The Searchers, True Grit, Rooster Cogburn, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, The Train Robbers and Cahill: U.S. Marshall.

I like that sound effect. Many westerns have used it. I’ve always wondered how they created that sound.

[@otisfugate6536]

[@federicopulixi5339]

I like how John is getting just as pounded as the other guy. Most fights are so unrealistically one-sided.

[@benlockhurst3878]

as time went on big johns punches got louder

[@patricksaxon3983]

You know those punching sounds are not what real punches sounds like. I have seen bar fights and heard how they sound for real. The closes that I have heard for punching sounds is the fight scene from The Big Country, between Gregory Peck and Charleston Heston.

[@williamreside5573]

@@patricksaxon3983 yeah, i think that's what he meant. the Foley made the sounds louder in post production during later movies. Seeing as how almost all of those punches didn't connect with anything all of the the sounds are fake. I only say "almost" because accidents happen.

[@JCVD1998]

he is perhaps the greatest movie star of the 20th century

[@mikekemp9877]

full of shit he may have been though i and most of the millions who loved his films would disagree what aggelos says is undeniable fact.only star to feature in the top ten movie stars over 20 times most bankable star in hollywood had a studio built round him republic and forty years after his death one of the ten most recognised film stars in the world his movies still sell on tv and dvd no other star of the golden era matched his longevity fame and box office clout.also no other movie star im aware of had a poem written about him by a major poet he did robert service wrote john wayne v randolph scott after seeing the spoilers.oh and an airport named after him can even samuel l jackson boast that.

[@jurjyzaidan5540]

The Duke himself stated that he did more fight scenes than any other Hollywood star. This happens to be true to this day when counting all the movies he did. John Wayne's best cinematic fight scenes were with Randolph Scott: THE SPOILERS 1942 and second to it, PITTSBURGH 1942. The Duke got his nose broken by Randolph Scott during the fight sequence in The Spoilers when Scott mistimed a punch. Wayne made a nod to this incident years later in THE COMANCHEROS 1961 via screenwriter J. E. Grant. The Duke stated that his boyhood idol was Jack Dempsey...And that he copied the Manassa Mauler's punching style for his onscreen fight scenes.

[@mogensl.g.schmidt1808]

If only his son patrick could have fight scenes like that

[@LBPreviews]

Very impressive, even today

[@zsedcftglkjh]

I have a soar jaw after watching that.

[@jerico641]

Well, let's not get carried away here, or think of these movie scenes as inspiration the next time somebody bumps into you in a bar or someplace. It's actually all too easy (and likely) to break half the bones in your hand by punching another guy in the jaw. It's also very easy for your jaw to break from just one full out punch (not to mention what could happen to your teeth). I've had both a broken hand and a broken jaw (neither from fighting, I'm happy to say), and even after 25 years, I'm still living with physical discomfort and a certain amount of disfigurement. Life sure as hell ain't like the movies, so please, don't ever intentionally try to prove that it is, okay? Just some friendly advice.

[@shadowman2192]

jerico641 When you broke your jaw. Did you have to get it wired shut for several months?
