The Civic, 2001 - My first action movie, humble beginnings!
Back in 2001 we grabbed my buddy's VHS-C camera and made this short film called "The Civic" in my hometown of Redding, CA. We were just a bunch of Hong Kong film fans who wanted to make cool action movies. This is what started The Stunt People, and the rest is history! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMbg5gXmSuE

Breakdown - Marshall and Forest Law share almost identical movelists in Tekken Tag 2, with the exception of Marshall's Dragon Knuckle setup, a few kicks, and a variation on the default throw. Law's movelist is riddled with multiple versions of his "somersault" kick (backflip kick), even though Bruce Lee only performed this move on camera with the assistance of stunt double Yuen Wah. Aside from Tekken, nearly every game franchise has a Bruce Lee character, a testament to the man's amazing persona.

Breakdown - Bryan's movelist is a mix of Karate (maybe some Shotokan and Kyokushin, complete with the Domawashi Kaitengeri) and Muay Thai. He requires lots of punching strength and a couple tricky combo kicks. His spinning backfists (real and feigned) were a pain in the middle of combinations. This must have been finagled by the animators, as they always broke my rhythm and made the 10-hit combo really tough. But his no-nonsense style is one of the most realistic movesets in Tekken.

Breakdown - While Paul Phoenix is officially a Judo stylist, he implements multiple Japanese styles for his Tekken Tag 2 command list. He uses Karate for most of his punches and footwork, jujitsu for his grappling throws, and it seems like the directional throws are Aikido-based. Paul's moves haven't changed much in the course of the Tekken series, likely due to fan demand. He's also one of the very few characters featured in every Tekken game.
