viking aiming early attempts Shadversity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmGORk9z5zQ Lars Anderson Viking Archery video short https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rii-oWSsU4s long https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_UOfqXL3SM my comment shadversity I think you two had good fun with this one. I did learn something. What is clear is, as the common technique changed over time, the media interpretation of the past simply ignored the common technique used in the past. I think that is very interesting. I wonder how many techniques were done differently in various martial arts in the past, that most people today don't recognize. I do think the run test is the one that really makes the case for this style. You can't run with your arms level to your shoulders faster than you can with your arms parallel to the side of the torso. I argue, Viking archery wasn't weird. It was styled for people who shot while running and close chaotic combat, which you guys didn't test. The standing style is best for the large armies, the lines of archers in the roman empire/Kemet empire/Chinese empire. But, the Rus/Varangians/Vikings/northmen were raiding peoples. The Varangians and Rus and Danes and Normands eventually became kingdoms or empires, but the raiding by Northmen occurred from testament to the muslim governments before during and after the formation of kingdoms by Northmen. My point being, the Northmen liked to raid, more than have a huge standing army and I think it reflects how the structure of organizations like the holy roman empire born from a hybrid roman/northman culture was a set of principalities fighting themselves raiding, and the dissolution of the Carolingian empire after Charlemagne died between his sons who raided each other. Raiding culture allows for an army to be the raiding force but I bet alot of raids not all from northmen were far fewer people, and not as absolutely devastating to the raided. So that an army was usually more an alliance of raiders/Vikings/pirates than a regimented army under one crown. Anyway, I wish you guys would had made the following test, on your first attempts with the Viking style. Take a thirty pound bow on the run and try to hit a target middle of the run while running, perpendicular to the path of the run, and after release keep running. And take a hundred pound bow on the run and try to hit a target middle of the run while running, perpendicular to the path of the run, and after release keep running. Then try the same two run's above but have an option of three targets and randomly select one. I bet the advantage of the lower pound bow or the Viking style will occur. What I think it will prove is, while the standing arms up style is better for more poundage standing still in a line of bowfolk or aiming from safe distances to targets, the running style is better suited for a mobility demanded random obstacle environment where one may be alone at times or using a random arrow and unable to stand and shoot. Raiding is war, but it is another form of war. Raiding isn't campaigns of one big army against another big army, raiding can be a group, attacking a town in another country. In that environment mobility is key. you can't stay and set up camp cause the town will get reinforcements that the group can't handle. comment url https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmGORk9z5zQ&lc=Ugz1DcSkrkdKLciwUdl4AaABAg my comment lars Anderson long version very informative thank you. The question I have is about European media. The paintings show the truth, but later on the styles changed. Were people in europe ashamed cause when I think on the northman method, I realize , anyone can see it suits a raiding culture. not really large lines of bowfolk. Maybe people in europe descended from vikings were ashamed of the raiding culture of the vikings? any thoughts. I can make a modern example. In the USA many white people speak of the earliest and early white european settlers as farmers who just happened to have muskets. Colonial Williamsburg erases all violent actions to indigenous people of the americas from european settlers and their descendents. It is shame. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_UOfqXL3SM&lc=UgyFbqqi8q-Vw3Cy3sV4AaABAg&pp=0gcJCSMANpG00pGi good one, but also add, the people telling them they were wrong, never tried to bow while running their fastest in a gauntlet with random targets. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_UOfqXL3SM&lc=UgxIPp_NaiJSfa0eO294AaABAg.AMiV_GmzeTwAN7li5gdfT-&pp=0gcJCSMANpG00pGi

My Review of Invisible Raptor Invisible Raptor 2023 directed by Mikey Hermosa and written by Mike Capes and Johnny Wickham sets the tone for any viewer with its opening scene. That tone is one of fun. Any ticket holder or streamer who demands a science fiction film with a serious tone from beginning to end, ala sphere 1998, or a comedic film with high budget special effects, ala hitchikers guide to the galaxy 2005, will be upset. But if a viewer is content for a fun science fiction comedy with a tight story and unashamed while functional ensemble cast, ala Tremors 1990 or Sharknado 2013, this will be one they visibly giggle and laugh with. The ensemble cast all delivers what is needed. David Shackleford's Denny binds the majority of the film. He is sometimes a hero you cheer for, sometimes a clown you laugh at, sometimes a fool you chastise, sometimes a wildman needing imprisonment, but his heart is always in a positive place. The appearances of most in the cast, are short but purposeful, not mere cameos to say they wanted to be in the movie. JJ Nolan,Luke Speakman , Richard Riehle, Larry Hankin, Vanessa Chester,Dave Theune,Bunny Levine, and others all serve a function as a person in the town we need to know about to defeat the raptor or someone we need to see the raptor kill on its path of town domination. Sean Astin character is the Scheherazade, framing the film. Sandy Martin takes over the last act with heroic hilarity to be remembered. Capes and Caitlin McHugh have hard jobs playing the straight characters who also fill all the tropes that warrant audiences amusement, but they succeed. Couples may be frustrated at their teasing at times. Ciolca's score is appropriate. Supports small changes in tone while allows the sound of the environments to do their work. He didn't hear that unique theme that one remembers, but it wasn't needed. Koss keeps the camera level, the images crisp, and allows the unrealness of night light. Too many films today, from all ranges of budget like to make dark scenes really hard to see and that is uncomfortable. I am glad he didn't. Grady Holder, Dorian Cleavenger and the effects squad, had a challenge with the invisible raptor but they made it work. I can only recall one time the beast didn't convince me of its danger in that accidental serial killer sort of way. Now I admit, I personally prefer a more serious tone in general. Yes, I am one of those who will choose to watch Solaris 1972 over Battle Beyond The Stars 1980. But, I don't demand it. Battle Beyond The Stars is fun and the Invisible Raptor is equal to the task with a smaller budget and a smart premise and a professional cast. There is no shame in wanting to see a film to get you to laugh and relax. https://discord.com/channels/1238281346833715283/1418802814582521967/1418943622107365406 https://discord.com/channels/1238281346833715283/1418802814582521967/1418943658560065578 https://discord.com/channels/1238281346833715283/1418802814582521967/1418943671293710466 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt22090684/ ALL REVIEWS https://discord.com/channels/1238281346833715283/1418802814582521967 A SHORTENED REVIEW Use HDDeviant : Invisible Raptor has a tone of fun which is sets out from the opening scene. A viewer who is content for a science fiction comedy with a tight story and purposeful direction will not be disappointed. The each of the cast in tandem deliver what the film required scene by scene. The special effects are functional and effective. https://aalbc.com/tc/events/event/512-my-review-of-invisible-raptor/ referral https://discord.com/channels/1238281346833715283/1425217764632821980/1425249482920034406
