greatest martial arts movie of all time

Dingus is a cool cat, but I don't always agree with him. Wouldn't have it any other way, in fact. Nothing to talk about if everyone always had the same opines.

On this question, I really didn't even know what the standards are?

But immediately thought back to Enter the Dragon. As a kid, that movie was bad ass!

Nowadays, the first Matrix movie perhaps, but I've just started thinking about this.

what seyz youz peoplz?

I remember one with a dude who had a super-long thick pole, surrounded by about 20 dudes. He kept jabbing the pole in their mouth and they were spitting out teeth.

Maybe same movie, or maybe a different one, but my vote is for:

MASTER OF THE FLYING GUILLOTINE

Jaybro, I'm a fan of Ghost Dog for sure but I don't think Forrest can hang in the physicality department compared to some of the real martial artists.

He does drop some knowledge along with RZA's beats though...

So much good Kung Fu, but I couldn't think of a movie that would top the crippled masters. Still,I did find this. Maybe weld_it could incorporate it into his finger board workout.

None of you know what you're talking about. Kung Fu Hustle is it. Everything else is vying for second place.

come on man. this is a very serious thread. Not one for laughing.





Unless of course we are going to watch Don Gibb play an "ogre" like character and fight in the Kumite!







I see your kung fu is strong.

I thought Hero was a fantastic story with stunning visuals. I was captivated the entire time.
