I guess we just have irreconcilable differences then. There's a magic to a properly choreographed action scene (of any sort) that connects on a primal level. There's a sort of rhythm that's much like a well-executed metal or hardcore song that just drags you along and "hits" at the right spots in the right manner to feel like a dance or something. Kind of hard to explain just like how a Slayer song is hard to explain in how the inertia and violence connects with you.
