I'm not going to lie: the Metamoris 3 event in Los Angeles this weekend wasn't really on my radar, but then this jiu-jitsu-as-Avengers-spinoff trailer came across my Twitter timeline, and now I'm fucking pumped up to see some guys jiu-jitsuing. This really has it all: bombastic music, overhead shots of Los Angeles, graphics that seem to be on fire, ridiculously photogenic jiu-jitsu guy Clark Gracie, competitors hanging out with huge armies of their teammates like they're getting ready to go fight the Turnbull AC's, and people explaining clearly why Eddie Bravo's quest to prove he's the man is a big deal. Hopefully Metamoris 4 promotion will involve these submission fighters just ripping mountaintops off and throwing them at one another.
