I thought of something else when I saw the thumbnail.
Montage Machine!
Rocky's Gonna Fly now training song, and hearts on fire are epic.
I have been watching too much porn, I thought the thumbnail was a facial
bola de pendejos
Jaja
You guys should do Top Ten Best game voice actors, and include the guy who plays Reinhardt in overwatch
actually, Team America World Police, in one montage, Explained and Satirized the montage trope, i'd Say that in the Ocean´s 11,12,13 franchise you can find of the best edited and visually comedic montages of all time, but that is just me
It's not a training montage in the traditional sense but I like the one in Angels in the Outfield as you see the team get progressively better and angels need to help out less. It is also helped out by the crowd singing Take Me Out to the Ballgame near the end of it.
wtf is the thumbnail? looks like doll porn
most of the last season of walking dead could have been a montage
Even Rocky had a montage
Watchmojo is running out of ideas so hard, the resort to TvTropes for inspirtaion
EVERYONE HAS AIDS!
Best training montage I can think of is the one from Turkish Star Wars, which was improved upon by the addition of "Push It to the Limit" from Scarface.
I wish training was this easy and you would have infinite amounts of motivation and your own theme music. But in reality it's very anticlimactic.
No problem with montages in films, they're effective and entertaining. As long as the story it tells is compelling and the characters are good I see no reason not to use it when necessary
Fuck yeah!!!
Youngblood!!!
I'd say my favorite montage is from the first season of DxD. I'd rate it about 11pi/6 of a full circle. Just my opinion.
Some BULLSHIT OPINIONATED VIDEO.
Is that you, Channel Criswell?
This is the worst clip recently. MONTAGE is life. MONTAGE is everything.
Who is this towards? Like who the hell is like you know.. I wish someone could explain a montage to me.. I'm too dumb to notice time passing and things happening. You guys running out of video ideas? Do one on Keijo butt fights .. I mean that is stupid too but at least there will be butts.
one time I saw a montage that didn't fade out at the end. It cut weeks off the time.
Cue montage!
Team America : World Police will always be my favorite.
My whole life has been a never ending montage…
one that jumps to mind for me is not even a sports film. it's "big hero 6"
come on scrub montage git gud
So what you're saying is that we need a Trump montage?
batman begins
"show, don't tell" is one of the best rules of film making, and like the song says, to show it all would take too long, it's not just sports flicks, various cop / detective type films will have a montage of getting evidence, speaking to informants, pulling in favours etc, I can't be sure because I haven't actually watched the film for a while, but I think "7" has one, but don't quote me on that one, oh, there is definitely a cool non sports montage in "21" where the main character is learning to count cards and beat the house in blackjack. Some tropes are conmen for a reason, in the case of montages it's because they are great at what they do, they're not going anywhere
It saves time and creates opportunities for Oscar-winning songs.
We're gonna need a Montage! (Montage)
The sex montage in Team America was freaking hilarious whenever it was first released!
CHANGE THIS THUMBNAIL LOL
"Montage" is French for Editing
I am rocky's brother
