Action Scenes

I feel a little bit bad because you can tell how proud the filmmakers are of their fight scenes this summer but...
I'd be perfectly happy if they were half as long, they just go on and on and on...

If I am watching something because I want the cathartic release of something blowing up then I am okay...

Me too. The action scenes that frustrated my father and me in the first Hobbit movie did so in part because we were there to see a literary adaptation, not a film version of a Live Action Role Playing session. I'm not bothered by long action sequences in movies like the ones in the Fast and the Furious franchise because I go to those movies specifically for the action.
