Blumineck just casually hitting one of the hardest trick shots like it's nothing and not getting a big head about it. Easily a G.O.A.T

"When there's something you don’t like, sometimes it's better to just focus on the things you do enjoy".
I love this! Social media would be a much better place if more people had this attitude.

I'd love to see your take on the archery in Princess Mononoke! Ashitaka is one of my favorite film archers ever and I'm amazed by the level of detail every time I watch the movie.

YES! I love the Brave and Hawkeye show shoutouts, both are so underrated

In Brave, when you see Merida drawing back her bow, you see a little scar on her cheek where she drew the arrows back to her cheek. The animation is phenomenal

Brave is massively underrated. so much fun, fantastic story... and for me, I love that it doesn't water down some of the characters accents to make them understandable to Americans (or... most English people either). I grew up with a Scottish Dad and struggled with (I think it was) MacGuffin's accent. I suspect a lot of people assumed it was actually gibberish to be funny, but, albeit, again with a bit of difficulty... I got at least the gist of what he was saying. And the characters form different areas had different accents. It was as cool to me as someone who, whilst not actually Scottish myself, gave a s**it about this movie as we know Moana was for Pacific Islanders. They clearly learned and actually cared about getting things right - or as right as they could.

Also, love seeing some love for Hawkeye (The series as much as the character).

Also-also, just love this kid of video generally, people talking about moves and shows that they like how [thing person is expert in] is portrayed for whatever reasons, be it accuracy or just cool factor. So much 'this is wrong, that's wrong' out there, so yeah... this was awesome.

Legolas being an inspiration, that makes so much sense

ALSO, ALSO, ALSO, Kate and Yelena in Hawkeye TV have one of the best chemistry/banter/fun dynamic on screen ever and it’s a CRIME that those two haven’t been put in a movie together!

So happy to see some Hawkeye TV series love, it's such a fun portrayal of not just comic book archery but of what makes a "powerless" superhero cool and interesting.

Re walking on snow, as a Canadian, I do this all the time. You just need the right snow - which is snow that has been on the ground for a few sunny, not-too-cold days. Then walk carefully and avoid shady spots.

Splitting an arrow from nock to pile being highly improbable - I have done exactly that, exactly once, in a lifetime of shooting an English longbow.  I still have the arrow, which remains joined at the pile.  It was at the time, my best arrow, with a perfectly straight grain and I was gutted when I 'robin-hooded' it.  I have split the rear 6 inches of an arrow many times, but a full length split, I have witnessed only 3 times in over 40 years, with one being my own.

The Helm's Deep scene! Please do recreate that!

If you've ever watched Shogun, the archery in that show is done by several Canadian members of the Kyudo Association of Canada. The sensei of Vancouver dojo (Mike Nakatsu) is even the first Christian beheaded in the show for making the sign of the cross in the village.

12:14 oh I forgot about the LARPing scene!! I need to rewatch this series

13:00 Dude that's sick af! Have you ever tracked the number of arrows in a character's quiver to see if/when the infinity arrows glitch happens? lol

I am so here for the positive “I like this thing” kind of content! Talk more about what brings joy ❤

Love your cheery positive attitude, it's always great watching you, helps forget that not everything is sunshine and roses

Your enthusiasm is so WHOLESOME

Thank you for this, sharing everywhere.

The Hawkeye TV show is by far one of the best MCU releases of all time. Believable characters that have real problems in a completely unbelievable world. I love it.
