Heroes of the East
Duel to the Death
Master of the Flying Guillotine
Fist of Legend
Fatal Contact
>36
>says 63
What did they mean by this
Flying Guillotine
...
The Miracle Fighters
Kung Fu Hustle
or Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon if you're not caught up on the whole kung fu/wuxia distinction
Crippled Masters is Kungkino
>The 36th Chamber of Shaolin
Chink faces horrible tragedies, and decides to GIT GUD
>Master of the Flying Guillotine
Elite killers are trained with an insane weapon, but one man runs away and becomes a family man. Those he knew as comrades come to merk his ass.
>Fist of Legend
Remake of a bruce lee flick. Chink goes to nippon to study, but his master is ded, so he goes kickin everyones ass until he finds the culprit.

5 assassins who trained under the same master, but who have never met each other, fight over a hidden treasure.
>Ong Bak 1

Fearless
Idk why i get so emotional when I watch it
>preferring Ong Bak over Ong Bak 2
What's wrong with you?
invincible shaolin is my fav
Master of the Frying Guillotine
If you include Thai movies, Chocolate is pretty based too. Original version, of course, not the international one with alternate scenes filmed at the last minute.
>liking any of the disgusting Ong Bak sequels
>liking any Tony Jaa film other than the first Ong Bak
old chinese is read from right to left
ip man
fearless
crouching tiger
ong bak
jackie chan stuff
What's wrong with YOU?
OB2 is good, but it tried too hard to be an everything-and-the-kitchen-sink movie and went all over the place.
3 was watchable, but was a part of 2 that they cut out for lengh and added some scenes to make it it's own movie. It shows.
almost anything by the Venom Mob is pretty watchable
5 element ninjas
master of the flying guillotine
born invincible
avenging eagle
crippled avengers
invincible armor
come drink with me
>i watch my my movies exclusively from Netflix/Hulu
which ones?
Can't believe those haven't been named:
Dunken Master I and II
Once Upon a Time in China
Tai Chi master or Ip Man for choreography, but in terms of spectacle Hero.
all of those are on Netflix
>Drunken
I just got up.
It's hip these days to prefer Shaw Brothers over Golden Harvest.
The Rebel (Viet movie)
Historical spy/martial arts/low-key horror magic movie.
The original version has more of the dark magic thing. The international one cuts a lot of it out of the movie and that can make it a little hard to understand for some people (bad guy uses iron shirt technique to resist being cut by knifes, for example, and gets crazier and physically sick from using the dark arts)
It's not wuxia-like at all. It's more in the vein of Ong Bak and "realisitc" (dark magic notwithstanding) in it's depiction of fighting.
youtube.com
It's with one of the bad guy in The Protector (Johnny Nguyen, the guy who was the Spidey stunt double in Spider-Man 2)
TOAD STYLE IS BEST STYLE
Scorpion a shit
the only ones on that list that were on netflix were come drink with me and avenging eagle
both are easily in the top 10
avenging eagle is amazing
chung sun was one of the most innovative kung fu directors
Black Dynamite obviously.
The stick is an excellent weapon
oh, yeah, there is lots of scissoring action because they fight using viet vovinam
Excellent movie senpai, one of the best. No one mentions it
m.youtube.com
They were on netflix a month ago
Naaaah. Warrior King son.
Not the greatest one, but Bangkok Knockout is worth seeing
I still don't understand the love for Ong Bak. I thought the directing/editing was garbage, the acting even worse, and the fights felt super unimpressive. I was just completely bored throughout the entire thing.
>Greatest kung-fu movie ever made....
>stars a White guy
Asians BTFO how will they ever recover???
He literally does the same exact thing in Ong Bak 1
Literally every stunt Tony Jaa does in his later movies are from Ong Bak 1.
It what annoys me so much.
posting GOAT scene: youtu.be
You're so cool, Brewster!
Can I suck your dick?
that's not Drunken Master 2
Does A touch of Zen count?
Great movie. Frank Dux a shit though. That guy was such a liar and a fraud.
this and Enter The Dragon
Ong Bak 1 is great, but The Protector is more fun.
ETD was pretty good, but the one in Italy where he fights Chuck Norris was better (it has so many alternate titles that are also titles of other Bruce Lee movies that I'm not even gonna try and list any of them)
Forgot about 5 Element Ninjas, that movie is amazing
no they weren't
I watched all of the classics available on Netflix
CDWM and Avenging Eagle were on the list
Kid with the Golden Arm
Five Venoms
36th Chamber
Invincible Shaolin
Masked Avengers
were the others on netflix
>more fun
nice way to say ">muh stairway scene"
I agree.
how do you get gainz like lo meng
The thing with Enter The Chamber is that you see this guy getting experience, learning, in interesting ways, and that's what makes the movie so different. The fights are pretty much the same everywhere, on the other hand Enter The Dragon is just badass, great style.
you do know that Netflix available movies ar enot the same depending on what country you are in, right?
This is the Kino of the cheesy b-movie martial arts films:

>tfw no secret beach base to practice drunken dancing muay thai with my bros
>only 61
god damn, i thought these foos would be dead by now
I know that you are a faggot
Why would anyone watch a movie where you can tell what's going on in the action scenes?
Master of the Flying Guillotine is my personal favourite,
Most people are able to easily figure that out. You're not special.
i like house of flying daggers
This movie and its sequel / part 2 are hella sick
This is not kung fu
Delete this
Merantau was better.
>Invincible Armor
Teaches you the kung fu secret of retracting your testicles so you don't get the eggs cracked in a fight
It's not so much a secret as a technique you need to start trainging for as a kid.
It's usually a Sumo thing though. They take a hot bath after to get the nuts to go back down.
>practicing disgusting Japanese Sumo
>not practicing based Tegumi, the better Okinawan version of "Sumo" wrestling
Chiun isn't pleased with your shenanigans.
Flying Guillotine
>Ctrl+f Sonny Chiba
>0 results
Shame on all of you.
does anyone know the name of that carter wong picture where the bad dude has that homing boomerang saw blade?
So it's a real thing
where the first 35 any good?
Yeah. They get to testicles up behind the bones of the cervix or something using massages (lol) and they get them to come back down with hot water. It's something they have to start doing before puberty though.
ITT: Lots of good movies but not a single person names the greatest Kung Fu movie of all time.
First off, a lot of what is being listed here are not Kung Fu movies. Just because chinese guys use unarmed martial arts to fight doesn't make it a Kung Fu movie. That's an action movie with Kung Fu. Jackie Chan (mostly) makes action movies with Kung Fu. Jet Li (mostly) makes action movies with Kung Fu. Good shit, sure, but not a Kung Fu movie.
A Kung Fu movie has a few pillars it absolutely cannot compromise on. These are:
>Kung Fu disciplines competing for which style/school is best
>Scenes dedicated to learning the basics of Kung Fu, including the philosphy
>A villain or rival that also uses Kung Fu
Bonus points for:
>No drunken style bullshit
>glorious 80s dub and soundtrack
>father-son schools
>jealous peers shitting on MC
Okay so with that all in mind, what is the greatest Kung Fu movie of all time? Legend of a Fighter. It's on youtube in full, with a great dub. Go watch it if you haven't. youtube.com
>that mysterious character introduced early
>the nerdy son that embarrasses his father
>that son finding redemption through hard work and commitment
>high level Chi techniques
>solid comedy
>solid sense of time passing
>classic shitting on whitey scenes
>god tier fight scenes with unique moves that catch you off guard
>light philosophy thrown in across the whole arc of the movie to show you never stop learning
>one of the best, most intense endings in cinema
>Action choreography equivalent to drunken meatheads fisting each other
Wew
You know the rules.
I can't believe no-one has mentioned Meals on Wheels. Kino Jackie Chan.
the grandmaster
>bones of the cervix or something
Uh... I never knew those particular bones extended that far.
That's notable mostly for having the single best fight scene ever recorded on film
