In animation, [[Rule of Cool|cool fight scenes]] draw an audience—but are expensive to create.
There are two ways to handle this: pour most of your budget into the fight scenes or use lots and lots of tricks. These tricks include tight first-person perspectives, eliminating backgrounds, and making sure there's as little actual contact as possible. There may also be a censorship aspect to it, if the fight [[Could Have Been Messy|would otherwise look brutal]]. This usually manifests itself as a [[Battle of the Still Frames]].

Typically [[The Movie]] will ditch these gimmicks entirely due to the amount of money that inevitably gets put into such projects.
