The American and Asian Cinema
Western movies come out during staggered installments all throughout the year but movies in Asia come out several times a year and is where most of the technologies you have in the West are based. Hard to believe, the next time you watch a movie take a look at the credits and you will surely see Chinese or Chinese Americans in the stunt department and coordination areas. The best stunt coordinators are Chinese and they have the guts to prove it. Most of these coordinators were former stunt men themselves giving them the best understanding of the trade. They mostly come from the red trousers or a famous Asian stunt group that is very well known for their daring and very well coordinated action sequences. Even the extensive use of body harnesses and wires in complicated stunts is derived from and an improved form of Asian stunt technology. Today, cinema in the Asian theaters compete side by side in the markets outside the said geographic area and they are quite good to tell you frankly.
