You would be surprised to learn this? Actually if you must know pretty much any time you see a female doing martial arts in a film, they were picked because they practice some form of martial arts.

Take Sarah Michelle Geller. You know buffy? Picked because she fit the part and she was a black belt in Tae Kwon Do.

Oh who else... Wesley Snipes has studied martial arts all his life.

I mean yeah most of the big stuff is probably still stunt men and junk, I know especially buffy stuff was mostly handled by stunt girls, but a lot of the episodes were just gellar kicking ass on her own. I can't say how much of RE stuff is Jovavich, but wouldn't say she doesn't know anything about real martial arts.

Well it's 12:20 AM here and I've already proved one person wrong in the day. I can now relax and enjoy the rest of my day.
