Yes, you're right. Violence in general is visually exciting. But I'm curious about other kinds of action that can be deeply compelling. I just read a great book on film editing (which I SO need to post about) that talked about how momentum can be carried by small gestures as well as large ones -- among many other things.
The vid I'm making is about the woobification of men who are murderers. It's fairly specific, using just three sources to illustrate an issue that resonates through many, many fandoms. I haven't actually tackled the part about women being trashed for the same qualities. That's a different vid, though one I would very much like to see!
