Em “Real Steel”, como Charlie sabia que o robô ficaria sem energia?

11

No final do filme:

Charlie Kenton (Hugh Jackman) takes control of the robot as it is put into shadow boxing mode. He then sits there and just continuously blocks, saying he is waiting for the right moment. Then by some miracle the other robot has some sort of power loss. How did he know the robot would suffer a power loss?

Pode ser uma estratégia legítima no boxe deixar o seu adversário se desgastar e depois ir para a ofensiva, mas estes são robôs. Não é como se os robôs ficassem fatigados.

Porque ele sabe que a fonte de energia de Zeus não é ilimitada.

Esta solução é uma estratégia de boxe bem conhecida, conhecida como " Rope-a-dope "

The rope-a-dope is a boxing fighting style commonly associated with Muhammad Ali in his 1974 'Rumble in the Jungle' match against George Foreman.

Technique
The rope-a-dope is performed by a boxer assuming a protected stance, in Ali's classic pose, lying against the ropes, and allowing his opponent to hit him, toward the end that the opponent will tire and make mistakes which the boxer can exploit in a counter-attack. By leaning against the ropes, much of the punch's energy is absorbed by the ropes' elasticity rather than the boxer's body.

Charlie Kenton's idea to wear down Zeus's power supply by allowing him to repeatedly land blows on Atom was in fact a technique used by real life professional boxer Muhammad Ali. Nicknamed the 'rope-a-dope', Ali utilized the strategy to tire fellow boxer George Foreman, a much stronger opponent than himself, and eventually gain victory. Ali famously angered Foreman with phrases such as "Is that all you got, George?" during the fight, mirrored in the film by Kenton's taunting hand gesture.

Esta é também uma técnica strongmente associada a Rocky Balboa, mais precisamente em Rocky III E há muitos outros links que você poderia fazer entre a série Rocky e o Real Steal.
