Line 101:
* Doctor Octopus takes it to another level in ''[[Spider-Man (film)|Spider-Man]] 2''. When Mary Jane grabs a 2x4 and starts advancing on him, he uses two of his mechanical arms to snatch it out of her hands and knock her to the floor, all without taking his eyes off Peter. Of course, it's possible the independently intelligent tentacles did it all on their own.
** Well, the film seems to imply that since the tentacles are basically connected to his mind; they can feed him information about his surroundings from their own built-in sensors (and if you watch closely, one of the tentacles was indeed "looking" at MJ before she struck). A similar thing happens during his first battle with Spider-Man. His back is turned completely to the direction Spidey is coming from, yet one of his tentacles seems to spot him coming. Ock then turns around throwing bags of money at Spidey as an attack.
* [[The Lord of the Rings|Legolas]] does this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tlkrR_hasU#t=2m13s during the hand-to-hand fight in Edoras.] Finishes off one, another's approaching from behind... '''bam'''
** Aragorn also stabs people without looking at them, the idea being that he's been trained in the elvish martial arts.
*** It also helps that he's been fighting for longer than any of the mooks have been alive.
