The martial arts movie ones they shamelessly ripped off
Competitive-Employ652025-10-04 14:39
and which ones that
warzone_afro2025-10-04 14:52
"The Raid" and the original "Oldboy" come to mind. but im sure those movies took inspiration from somewhere too.
omicron7e2025-10-04 15:13
Which all take inspiration from original hallway fight in Homer’s Odyssey when Odysseus returns home and it reads “Odysseus fought down the hall, knocking out suitors as he went, and it was totally rad.”
skronk612025-10-04 18:46
Hell yeah, Odysseus was a shonen protagonist 😆
skronk612025-10-04 18:45
Yeah Oldboy what what I was thinking of
Bintoe20192025-10-04 14:26
Oldboy
BloodDrunkMoonKnight2025-10-04 16:01
Have you seen [I Am Monster?](https://youtu.be/HZexADyMUPk?si=IL8ptrIaPj0jCKPK) It has a great hallway fight scene.

Season 2 fight with Punisher

DD S1. It wasn't just a good fight, it had far more emotional weight than films that inspired it like Raid and Old boy, which the stunt crew said they took the inspiration from.
NamelessOne30062025-10-04 15:27
Arrow was special to me but Daredevil will always be the best.

*Not accurate
ShierAwesome2025-10-04 20:33
Ok not flawless but Legends was the only CW superhero show that was genuinely enjoyable the entire time
VelocityGrrl392025-10-04 23:23
I still love the Thong Song finale. Classic.
Business_Sand95542025-10-04 17:04
I did enjoy Superman and Lois. Watching arrow and flash just made me feel like I wasted time personally. Nothing against people who enjoyed the shows though :-)
brado3812025-10-05 23:31
Superman and Lois was great IMO
elhombreloco902025-10-04 18:30
There was no fight scene choreography in any of Arrow that even came close to the choreography in Daredevil.
RoyHarper882025-10-05 01:34
You're correct. But there were some that were really good for CW show budget/quality.
btotherad2025-10-04 15:49
Having Stephen Amell instantly downgrades whatever it is. That guys sucks and so did Arrow

BloodDrunkMoonKnight2025-10-04 15:57
First episode of Born Again. What a great hook. Some might not consider it a hallway fight scene, but imo it is since it is presented as a continuous shot.
WiseAdhesiveness66722025-10-04 17:07
I fucking loved that bar/hallway fight. It was so brutal, so dirty. Just the way Bullseye was effortlessly, non-chalantly, casually killing random people in-between everything was fucking wild to see. Like pure sociopath shit.
padfoot121112025-10-04 18:09
I would say it's an noble continuation of the hallway trend.
Honorable last place goes to the hallway fight in she hulk that clearly was parodying the hallway fight when She hulk came in to ruin it. Completely intentional and very funny
Zyffrin2025-10-04 16:01
If you're comparing these two scenes specifically, I'll have to say the Daredevil one edges it slightly.
However, say what you want about the show, Arrow had some truly amazing fight scenes. [This one](https://youtu.be/-SmPAqan4I0?si=4AjEnSzhbpS12oyZ) in particular is one of the best fight scenes among superhero media, in my opinion.
Fxry2025-10-04 20:28
Also his fight against Ras Al Ghul on the top of the mountain is really good.
RadSkeleton8082025-10-04 16:12
I never really enjoyed the combat of the Arrowverse. Everything often looked way too rehearsed to me and often like they were just going move to move.
Like the show just not that aspect of it. So between those two it's Daredevil for me; has more fluidity and a natural aspect to its fights.
Confident-Gur-32242025-10-04 16:47
I mean I watched the first 5 seasons of Arrow and I still have to ask "what hallway scene are you talking about in arrow?". With Daredevil everyone knows that scene and that should speak to which one is best.
stoopitmonkee2025-10-04 18:23
Yeah the same thing is happening to me. Can’t for the life of me remember the Arrow hallway fight…
Fxry2025-10-04 19:00
It was Oliver going to rescue Walter from where Malcolm had him stashed away. Think it was an apartment in Bludhaven and he parachuted in.
VelocityGrrl392025-10-04 23:24
I’ve watched the entire Arrowverse multiple times and I still don’t know what OP is referring to.
jsnxander2025-10-04 23:59
I watched the first 3 seasons of Arrow and don't recall a hallway fight scene either.
Thomas_JCG2025-10-04 16:58
Hydrogen bomb vs Coughing baby comparisson. *Daredevil* cinematography and coreography were on a league of their own.
dratsablive2025-10-04 17:09
When I first watched the Daredevil Hallway Scene, I Paused it halfway to look up the fight coordinator, because I saw inspiration from Old Boy. Sure enough the fight coordinator said the scene was inspired by Old Boy.
Can’t be a real question. Almost nothing beats a Daredevil hallway scene.
graveybrains2025-10-05 02:53
It's responsible for all the hallways that have followed
ChaoticCaptain1772025-10-04 17:28
I don't remember the hallway fight from that arrow episode but I do remember enjoying the Daredevil hallway fight
alexjf562025-10-04 17:37
Feels almost like bait to pit arrow against an iconic daredevil fight.
I really loved arrow but in the marvel subreddit you’re not gonna find a single person choosing that scene over the daredevil one
abellapa2025-10-04 17:39
I really like Arrow but is this a fucking joke
Arrow had atrocious chreography
Lol ,its not even close 😂😂
Ordinary-Chain-80472025-10-04 17:57

KlausLoganWard2025-10-04 18:12

DSTREET452025-10-04 18:24
I really like this Arrow hallway fight scene but I have to give it to Daredevil.
Gorgeous-George-0262025-10-04 18:27
Both are okay.
Best is Old Boy (original version).
antimarc2025-10-04 20:30
cmon man, this truly isn’t even a discussion
iwouldhugwonderwoman2025-10-04 20:43
Nothing compares to daredevil in a hallway.
TheForeverUnbanned2025-10-04 20:45
I’m glad you enjoy arrow and all but this is a coughing baby vs nuclear bomb question it’s daredevil and it isn’t even close
MasterAnnatar2025-10-04 21:27
Coughing baby vs nuclear warhead
kamekaze10242025-10-04 22:40
This is a Hydrogen bomb vs whooping cough baby. Daredevil clears. It’s not close.
scottcmu2025-10-04 22:42
Darth Vader in Rogue One
Aglet_Green2025-10-04 22:47
I'm currently watching Daredevil (I was a workaholic 10 years ago and didn't have Netflix as I was barely home) and the fight choreography in Season 1 was so good that in the few places in Season2 where it isn't, I actually sat up and noticed. In fact, I remember thinking that the episode must have bee over time or over budget, because Charlie clearly sounded English-- I guess it was subconscious because he was talking to the British accountant about that guy's son Daniel-- and no one caught it or asked for another take.
Stephen Amell is a strong guy but the CW is not winning any awards for choreography.
Fun-Poet53382025-10-05 00:43
Have them fight each other to decide the winner. In a hallway ofc.
THE_Batman_1212025-10-05 01:47
This cant be a serious question
aaufooboo2025-10-05 02:48
Comparison is the thief of joy.
A few years ago, I would have been **balls** deep in this conversation. Not trying to arbitrarily compare two completely separate things has saved me so much brain space.
leytonscomet2025-10-05 02:54
The correct answer is the Hit Girl hallway fight from Kick-Ass 😂
Forsaken_Club53102025-10-05 04:22
I love Arrow but it has to be Daredevil.
Hand to Hand combat other than the Cap vs Bucky fight in Winter soldier, nothing beats Daredevil
JayWaWa2025-10-05 05:22
Daredevil no question
themaskedcanuck2025-10-05 13:44
Daredevil and not even close.
Usual-Caregiver55892025-10-05 16:36
I have gotten so many people that absolutely *do not* give a shit about Marvel to watch daredevil with that single clip that its ridiculous. That scene is impeccable and rewatching the series for Born Again reminded me how great the single shot prison scene is, as well.
Shattered_Disk42025-10-05 16:52
The fact you are even attempting to compare the DD hallway fight to the arrow one is cause for me to think about assaulting you physically
OddScarcity94552025-10-05 17:41
Unless Arrow takes someone out with a microwave, there’s no comparison here.
Ronenthelich2025-10-05 18:33
I prefer Daredevil’s with its one take style.
Obligatory fun fact: Both Scenes were inspired by a hallway scene in Indonesian Martial Arts film The Raid Redemption.
Fantastic_Bug10282025-10-05 18:51
Silly question honestly. Daredevil one is iconic. You can make an argument, that that was the scene that “made” the show.
daveinthe62025-10-05 21:06
Old Boy.
[deleted]2025-10-06 04:52

Lemme tell you summin'
Daredevil Season 2, Episode 9 is the best hallway fight
[deleted]2025-10-08 17:10
Daredevil. It's like the show invented hallway fights.
