Well, at least it looks a little too ridiculous for a good fight scene...
It's also a little hard to show with just a still image. Two images to show that the punchee is clearly out of range the entire time might work, though.
Keep Until Better Image Suggested.
The Internet misuses, abuses, and overuses everything.Another Keep Until Better Image Suggested vote — to me, it looks like he's angry and wants to fight, and ends up looking ridiculous.
That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.Or maybe he was trying to deliver a bras d'honneur but can't figure out how to work his other hand?
Well it'd be funnier that way.
A before shot showing Peter...did he dodge or deflect Flash's punch?...either way, a before shot could help.
Fight Scene Done Badly? Dumb article.

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.I've seen a slow-motion clip of the sail barge fight in Return of the Jedi where it shows Luke kicking a guy, clearly missing, and the guy falling backwards anyway. It's not a massive failure - I've never noticed it in the movie - but there might be a picture of it that works to illustrate the trope well.
EDIT: Ah, here it is. Pick whichever of four stills you think works best (I lean towards the second one): http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Force_kick

That's a good example.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!I lean toward a combo of frames 1 and 3 - 1 shows the attack clearly missing, 3 shows the blown reaction.
I like it.
I prefer the single frame that's currently on the page, partly because that one doesn't have that flying blue guy in the background.
I'm not crazy, I just don't give a darn!I like it.

The Internet misuses, abuses, and overuses everything.One vote for #10.
I'm a (socialist) professional writer serializing a WWII alternate history webnovel.A couple more votes for 10 and we can kick it...technically.
I see what you did there.

If a chicken crosses the road and nobody else is around to see it, does the road move beneath the chicken instead?And another vote.
I have no idea what is going on in the image. Two guys are high-fiving, the caption mentions air guitar, and this is supposed to be about a fight scene; huh?
