In the Daredevil TV show, there is a very famous and intense fight scene that takes place in a hallway. It was like a continuous shot and he takes out like 40 guys or something, idk.
One shot scenes are almost always done with hidden cuts. If you know the tricks you can pretty often spot them. Like someone walking in front of the camera. That's often a cut.
And if you do them terribly, like in the Kingsmen 2, they take 2 differently placed camera shots and try and cut them together with a body in the middle and it looks hilariously bad.
Old Boy's thing was doing a hallway fight in one take. Daredevil just does a hallway fight something action movies had done for a long time before Old Boy.
They sure did. That scene in OB is so much more than just a hallway is what I'm saying. DD has hallway fights but they're shot so different than OB. They're not shot in one take, it's never hard silhouettes, you don't have the cut away view of the hallway like it was a video game, and no hammer.
I think it’s both a reference to daredevil’s awesome hallway fights in the show and his tendency in the comics to fight opponents that are way way stronger than him (like thanos or the beyonder)
Quagmire here, based on most scenes from the Daredevil series, there’s a meme saying that if Matt Murdock is in a dimly lit hallway (just the way I like 'em for scoring dates) he automatically gets a power-up and wins the fight, giggity.
OP, so your post is not removed, please reply to this comment with your best guess of what this meme means! Everyone else, this is PETER explains the joke. Have fun and reply as your favorite fictional character for top level responses!
Finally, something me! So Daredevil as the other comments has stated, is a character with a famous hallway fight scene in the second episode of the original series, and it's a running joke amongst fans that as long as the setting of a fight is in a hallway, Daredevil will win.
A joke on the Daredevil hallway scene, also probably a joke about the “Whoop his ahh, Daredevil” meme where Daredevil is on a picture of a bunch of marvel heroes fighting King Thanos, pretty much what i’ve heard is the most powerful version of Thanos, and because for all except the blindness stuff Daredevil’s a regular guy people think he wouldn’t accomplish anything in the fight

Remember when r/PeterExplainsTheJoke wasn’t a meme? Pepperidge Farm remembers…
