For other examples of stretching out an action sequence, see [[Bullet Time]]. May overlap with [[Broken Record]].
{{examples
== Anime and Manga ==
* ''[[FLCL]]'' deserves a mention here for using just about every camera technique there is possible in the span of six episodes.
* ''[[Eureka Seven]]'' shows a triple take of [[What Do You Mean
* The beginning of ''[[Futari wa Pretty Cure]]'' shows three different shots from different angles when Honoka and Nagisa first pass each other in the first episode.
* Used in ''[[Death Note (Manga)|Death Note]]''. In the first episode, when Light is testing the Death Note for its authenticity, he stops an attempted rape by writing the would-be rapist's name in his Death Note with 'Traffic Accident' written as the cause of death. Soon after, a truck wheels in from nowhere and plows into the man. The death is shown three times, each from a different angle.
** Deliciously parodied in the first episode of ''School Note'', which repeats the crash a dozen times or so, set to dramatic music.
** I just counted. It repeats ''twenty-five times.''
** Also used when Light hugs Misa, down to replaying the same gasp in all three shots, evidently underscoring just ''how'' [[Revealing Hug|critically consequential this hug is]]...[[What Do You Mean
** Somewhat parodied when Aizawa snaps due to prolonged contact with Misa.
* In ''[[Bleach]]'', with Ichigo getting slammed by a lightning bolt through the shoulder by the [[Aloof Big Brother]].
Line 54:
* One of the earliest uses of the technique in an action film appeared in the climactic battle of Akira Kurosawa's ''Zoku Sanshiro Sugata'', with a karate chop nearly missing the main character's face, setting the stage for one of action cinema's most enduring cliches.
* This technique was popularized in contemporary Eastern Cinema by the [[Jackie Chan]] film ''Police Story'' back in 1985, wherein the stunt in which the hero slides down 4 stories of Christmas lights was so impressive that the editor could not bear to throw away ANY of the 3 angles at which it was shot.
* A rare Western feature film example is a moment in ''[[Ferris
* In the [[MST3K]] experiment, ''[[Laserblast]]'', a gas station and car get blown up -- with the explosions repeatedly viewed from different angles. This gives a rather convincing impression to Mike, the bots, and the viewers at home that ''several different items'' are being blown up, not just the one featured in the scene.
* ''[[Ong Bak|Ong-Bak: Muay Thai Warrior]]'' uses this for nearly every impressive stunt in the movie, showing the action from different angles and different speeds. Of course, given the damn impressive nature of the stunts, wouldn't you want to show them off as much as possible?
