Just show any combat accurately. John Wick was close but there are some things that folks just can't shrug off. Getting hit with a bat multiple times, getting punched in the face more than 10 times, getting cut or stabbed and the bleeding is so small.

I mean, London has Fallen was surprisingly accurate, ignoring a flaw here and there. Olympus, on the other hand, was... less so.

I saw two youtube channels that tackle how realistic/practical some historic movie tropes are, like can you swim wearing chainmail and carrying a sword, or fight wearing a long dress... They should def work on these movies.

The conclusion of the first one was 1. you can but it's a pain in the ass and you risk drowning, it's impossible with the whole armor and helmet though, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLCVAfsjh7o (it's in French) and 2. provided the dress is correctly tailored, you can and it's badass af. (Jill Bearup's entire channel is dedicated to this!)

There once was; I forgot when, romans maybe? anyway; they figured out if you put up a bubble you can launch an underwater sneak attack while being armored. You only had like 10 min or you got entirely fucked; so it was best on rivers, but they were the first scuba divers. I'll click the link in a sec

I think we're talking bout the same thing; I'm not drunk enough to understand the entirety of the french language right now.

learn the bow and arrow; against cavalry, hit the horse; infantry the neck. Same idea.
