The Impact of Tony Jaa | Video Essay by Accented Cinema

[kevinthetarotreader]

In the 2005 martial arts action movie “The Protector” (called Tom Yum Goong in the original Thai), there’s a scene where the protagonist faces off against a Capoeira master in a burning Buddhist temple that’s been flooded by the sprinkler system.

The protagonist has thus far been ploughing through hordes of armed and unarmed henchmen using Muay Thai to elbow and knee everybody with a face. Here however, he is suddenly thrown completely off his game by the shirtless man seen in this picture throwing a strong kick while in the middle of a fucking hand stand.

Up until this point, none of the antagonists or their lackeys really managed to outclass the protagonist, until here, except via cheap shots. The Capoeira fighter (played by Lateef Crowder, and actual Capoeira master who has cross trained in other martial arts) walks up to the protagonist and immediately manages to stun him with a feint and kick to the head. He manages to keep Tony off balance, overwhelming him with a combination of spinning kicks, sneaky sweeps, and overall evasiveness, even nearly knocking him out with a sudden boot to the chin.

Shit was sick, frankly.

Unfortunately, Lateef Crowder tears his Achilles tendon doing a pair of flips, and another stuntman from his team has to finish the scene for him.

I CANNOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME FIND IT, BUT I SAW AN INTERVIEW WITH LATEEF CROWDER WHERE HE SAID THAT IF HE DIDN’T GET INJURED DURING THIS SCENE, IT WOULD HAVE CONTINUED WITH HIM BEATING TONY BEFORE FINALLY BEING OVERCOME AT THE END OF THE MOVIE AND I REMAIN ENRAGED THAT I WON’T GET TO SEE THIS VERSION OF THE MOVIE

Anyways, the main point of this two card spread was to illustrate the feelings this scene initially conveyed: of the unorthodox attacking the conventional from unexpected angles. Tarot began as a card game, and card games are games of strategy, seeking advice on how to change your strategy up to approach problems, people, and furious Muay Thai fighters trying to save their poached elephants, is a valid and useful means of using divination to its fullest.

ONG-BAK: MUAY THAI WARRIOR- 2003 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ting volunteers to recover the head of a statue stolen from his village. He has to fight EVERYONE to get it back.

A real martial arts bonanza! Tony Jaa on fire here. The fight sequences are legitimately brilliant and the non stop instant replays are hilarious. A real wonky score and some goofy jests here but a very good action movie regardless.

Reminded of how mad I am about Europacorp not releasing the original unaltered cut of Ong Bak in English and how the only place you can watch the original version of the film is in Thailand.
