Awesome Action

Video editor Luc Bergeron (aka Zapatou) put together this dizzying montage of 178 of the amazing action clips captured and posted to the GoPro YouTube channel since the start of 2014. Our faves: #031 and #057. Which are yours?

A discharged soldier visits his fallen comrade’s grieving family, claiming that he promised his departed friend that he would look after them. From the makers of You’re Next. Starring Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey).

For their latest action video, Devin Supertramp and friends headed to Panama City and set up a perilously steep zipline, and then proceeded to jump off of it just part way down. Fortunately, they had parachutes. BTS video here.

We didn’t know what to think of a Mad Max movie without Mel Gibson, but the trailer for the 2015 reboot looks totally awesome. It doesn’t hurt that director George Miller is back at the helm. Stars Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron.

The first full trailer for The Expendables 3 features as many celebrities as stunts and explosions. It looks like the rookies are easy pickings for Mel Gibson’s character, which means its up to the granddads to do the dirty work.

(Gore) Sharpshooter Karl Fairburne heads to Africa in Sniper Elite 3. The game will feature a more open world, with multiple cooperative two-player modes. The X-Ray Kill Cam returns and zooms in on mechanical objects as well.

(Gore) Denzel Washington resumes his badassery in The Equalizer, an adaptation of the eponymous late 80s action TV show. Also starring Chloë Grace Moretz. Directed by Antoine Fuqua (Training Day, Shooter).

Michael Caine, Samuel L. Jackson and Colin Firth star in this adaptation of Mark Millar, Matthew Vaughn and Dave Gibbons’ comic book, which is basically a bastardized take on James Bond. Yep, that’s Millar all right.

More hair-raising footage from the upcoming installment of the bestselling manga series’ live-action adaptation. It appears that the movie will be split into two parts. We wholeheartedly approve of that decision.

In this promo clip for Castrol Edge motor oil, Hoonigan Ken Block plays a little game of football with FIFA World Cup player Neymar Jr. to see if its easier to score goals with your cleats or with a Ford Fiesta ST RX43.

In this amusing promo clip for NSMB, Matt Dennison explains to us the best way to capture footage of mountain biking action, poking fun at the myriad clichés found in action sports videos.

In the extended trailer for the upcoming Godzilla reboot, Bryan Cranston’s character believes that the government knows how he lost his loved one, ’cause it sure wasn’t an accident. Do you really wanna know though?

Check out Harrison Ford, Antonio Banderas, Ronda Rousey and more of the roster in Sylvester Stallone’s mega action flick. Wesley Snipes, Kelsey Grammer and Mel Gibson in one movie? Might as well call this Expendables 1993.
