Yeah, outside of Spidey 1 & 2 there are few live action superhero movie fights I can think of that compare.
Cap vs Batroc in the Winter Soldier is one that comes to mind.
I forget how much of that movie involves Stryker mind controlling mutants - including his own son - to eradicate mutant kind - extremely dark stuff.

09.08.2025 02:25 โ ๐ 90 ๐ 17 ๐ฌ 9 ๐ 2Curse of Capistrano is still a VERY fun read - I read it and watched Mark of Zorro ('20) right afterward a couple years ago.
Super fun pulpy proto-superhero adventure. The secret identity hijinks especially age well since we don't get a lot of that anymore.
Thinking about this again.
There are very few fights in modern superhero movies that I don't zone out during. They're either totally weightless, tell no real story, or more often both.
Logan/Deathstrike has stakes, escalation/progression, strong beats that break things up, a satisfying conclusion.
This climax of this movie is a great lesson in how having your heroes occupy an interesting space (the dam) and giving them an intelligible goal (get out of the dam before it floods) makes things a lot more exciting and interesting.

It looks great, too.
Logan vs Deathstrike is still the greatest superhero movie fight of all time imo

08.08.2025 23:15 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I had a different experience - I got quite emotional during the first episode.
Didn't hurt that I watched it with my Dad in the same room where we watched the pilot in '97.
But I get it - it's way less of a "throw it on whenever" episode.
I hadn't even realized that Hardwick recorded for the season until I saw the episode that ends with the "In Memorium."
You're right - neither sounds like Original Recipe Dale, but I think both do a good job. I loved the scene where Dale and Joseph run into each other doing a stakeout.
