Slight bit of digression, I know, but Jim Mitchell is truly inspiring in terms of technique. If you watch his films of Six Thousand Feet Under or Sorry Don't Make It So, you can see that he figures out the 'groove' of each monster and exploits it to its fullest. With F'lickta, it's dodge right, punch, move left, punch, dodge right, punch, move left, etc. With Cyborgs, he just circles around continually, punching as fast as he can and ensuring that every grenade they fire ends up going to his left. It's consistent, simple, fluid, and reliable. Truly impressive, IMHO.
