@bam: *ahem* yes, I occasionally indulge myself with a little something called WoW. Although that has not been my inspiration for the question - as I said, watching the staff battle gave me a clear view at how hard staff fighting really is - I mean, sure eye/hand coordination is really important for two swords, but think about it, you got two ends with the staff as well - and you are only truly good in a staff-fight if you can use both ends to your advantage, i.e. probably the same eye/hand coordination is neccessary. Well, I have no idea how much experience you have with staff fighting, but that were just my 2 cents (as an untrained but observant spectator )

James,


Have you encountered an actor on the show, regular or guest that just couldn’t do the stunt job? No matter how long you did the prep work it just didn't go well. (no names please)

Jimbo
-Sorry about having to rush you at night party.

I'm a poor college student, but I'm interested in learning martial arts (i.e. jujitsu). What's the cheapest way of doing so? I've looked into several schools, but they seem to cost an arm and a leg. Any advice would be very much appreciated.

Almost every campus have one or two martial arts clubs, there is usually no cost or just the cost of a uniform. Check it out.

The coolest person............hmmmmm...............dunno..........that is all relative..........I did almost stop at one point in the middle of a fight scene with Sly Stallone, and say "wow, Rocky is about to punch me", but the stunt coordinator had already warned me that it might happen and I was prepared. I very much enjoyed the sword fight I had on Blade 3 against Blade. Vin Diesel was nothing but a gentleman to work with on Riddick........hmmm.........of course the cast of Atlantis kicks everybody's butt's!!! Need I say more?

roflao! awesome

Hey there BamBam!

What do you factor in when deciding to use a specific martial art for a character (i.e. Teyla's escrima sticks)?

so like in some of the sword fights on SG1 (in Avalon or Camelot, and the wading in the mud).. that Mitchell is doing... is that all Ben's work... or a stunt double? ( hopefully that's worded a better)

Nice to see you showing some photos of my buddy Sebastian from First Wave there CKO................uhhhh, let's see..........Avalon was all Ben on screen, Babylon was all Ben on screen, Camelot had a little bit of stunt doubling of Ben by myself, you can watch it to guess where!

I don't remember the question..........sorry.
