      Starting to think it’s deliberate now.
      I remember seeing a clip of Jackie Chan in a documentary talking about why the fight scenes in original kung fu movies were so much more visceral than American made ones, one of the techniques he describes is filming a punch from a wide-angle, then using a close up for the impact, but importantly having the same half-second of action in both shots so you would connect the two. Anyway i think of that every time I see this phenomenon

          Actually so excruciatingly rare that we might never again again get to see one of these without a repeated word.
