anyone else enjoy martial arts movies...

rent/buy/download:
chocolate
its been out for a while but only got to watch it last night. According to several articles, there were no stunt doubles for the main actors. Very entertaining, yet somewhat unbelievable. make sure you watch til the end where they show some of the serious injuries acquired from this film. =) enjoy.

Nice! Wing Chun was created by a women nun in a Shaolin Monastary. Reminds me of escrima, lots of checking. Trained in this style 30yrs ago w/ Kimo Wong, love it (all vertical fist)!

Gotta check out yipman and chocolate.love both the oldschool like 5 deadly venoms, monkey fist floating snake, shaolin vs manchu and new school like zu warriors, fearless, 7 swords,volcano high just to name a few. I could go on just looking at my dvd section but dont want to bore you.

Ho, big-time martial arts movie fan. I'm an old man, so I've been watching dem movies since the 70's. I used to go to the Hawaii and Liberty theatres for triple bill movies, I also frequented the Empress and Golden Harvest theaters when they were open. Big fan of Shaw Bros. films, especially with Fu Sheng, Chen Kuan Tai, Liu Chia Liang and Lo Meng. My most recent source for martial arts movies is www.cine-east.com good prices and they have links to previews on their site. Check out the sequel to ongbak, totally kewl.

Growing up of Tommys Video's on King Street in the 90's got me hooked on every Kung Fu mainstream old and new.

Just finished watching Legendary Assassin and Legendary Warrior THAT GOT ME REALLY HOOKED. The reason why cause it is a series of DVD disk, like 8 or so and yup, it's really addicting.

Just want to get more underground movies.....I'll take shiroikage word and check out that website.
