Member ShaOW!linDude Posted September 19, 2011 Member Share Posted September 19, 2011 Anyone ever seen this? I stumbled onto it on Twitch. (The link is a year old.) It's available on Amazon. Here's the links. http://twitchfilm.com/news/2010/09/a-trailer-for-filipino-martial-arts-documentary-eskrimadors.php http://www.amazon.com/Eskrimadors-Kerwin-Go/dp/B003GDINHK/ref=sr_1_1?s=movies-tv&ie=UTF8&qid=1316469191&sr=1-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member BaronK Posted September 20, 2011 Member Share Posted September 20, 2011 Not what I was hoping it was going to be. I think docs. play better as a series as opposed to movie style. Not enough of anything to sink into. I was hoping for more action, technique aspects. That helps to really show the differences in styles and camps(they mention Balintawak and when it splintered from the main. It is so different from other stick styles) If you can catch it somewhere cool but i don't find it to be a keeper or rewatcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Travis Posted September 24, 2011 Member Share Posted September 24, 2011 I don't see why the martial arts community is so into escrima, maybe they find it exotic. Escrima is not even popular in the Philippines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
