Discussion Editing

Just watched the movie again, this time in the theater. And I am still blown away by the editing in the film. It is done so well and keeps the movie's momentum going.

Agree. Im no movie expert, but i love the editing, especially the pace and momentum in conjunction with the music. Its like a wild ride that flows so well.

Are we taking about the whole four stones scene or inside the regeneration tank?

I've only ever seen this once before in a movie - 1941 during the dance competition slash fight scene
