Arkham City Inspired Short Action Film

One of the things that inspired gamers while playing Batman: Arkham City was the fantastic fight choreography in the game. Playing as Batman or Catwoman - or as other characters assuming you've acquired the DLC - one can develop long chains involving interesting punches, kicks, and other options.

I recently stumbled across a short action film by design team Thousand Pounds Action Company in which a lone female martial artist adapts the unique fighting style from Batman: Arkham City. If you've played the game, you'll notice that the comparison is incredible. Even if you haven't, the video is stunning.

But you don't have to take my word for it.

Kari Lehtonen Presents Chuck Norris

Some of the true believers among you probably remember my first article on Kari Lehtonen, the Dallas Stars goalie with all those amazing masks. Well, Lehtonen recently unveiled a brand new face mask adorned with pictures of actor/martial artist/Total Gym endorser Chuck Norris.

Dallas has always known how to make sports about more than sports. Whether it's cheerleaders, ice girls, the largest domed structure on the planet, personalized songs by Pantera, or in this instance, the most interesting face masks in the league, Dallas can really sell their teams. You have to love or hate that, which means they're doing their job --- inspiring people to feel passionately about Dallas teams.

Go Stars!
