Example: If I got one of my comics made into a show I would come into my board room and say "Okay let's do the fights like FMA." I love Fullmetal Alchemist but it's been done. I'd do my own thing and stick to it for better or worst. With Oum gone they can't get that fire back. But they can at least attempt to recreate it with serious effort. First you say they should find their own style because recreating someone elses stuff is tired and makes it forgettable, then you say they should try to imitate Montys style.

Yes, Monty had a snappy style. Honestly, I found it too sharp and snappy sometimes, as the characters transitioned into positions or moves in a way that broke the flow in my eyes as they didn't transcend into the next attack and instant simply snapped into it. The Black Trailer had a lot of this, where one minute Adam or Blake would be slashing and the next they're shooting with no in between.

I personally think that they should not imitate Monty's animation style, and instead continue to develop and improve their own. As they get better, so too will the fight scenes, and they won't be constraining themselves to a style that is unnatural to them.
