That was a great show! i loved when the knives ricochet off the building and get stuck in his legs!  my favorite movie though has to be Kung Pow enter the fist. I laughed so hard during this movie i had to watch it again right afterwards to see the parts i missed! i can still watch it and be rolling on the floor. and i love both kill bill movies. (im sure ill get flak for that) i cant help it. so tacky and tons of blood. plus a great story. and the creepiest whistle song ever!Kill Bill Whistle

As far as older Kung fu flicks, anything Bruce Lee. esp. Fists of fury aka. The Big Boss
most chan movies, drunken master etc....

also Dirty Ho and heroes of the east.  and theres alot more but ill let the others bring them up.
Mirabile dictu,don't you agree?

Paul, Circle Of Iron is a great flick!  IP MAN is one of my newer favorites.  ENTER THE DRAGON & RETURN OF THE DRAGON are two I like also.

I first saw Circle of Iron at a drive-in double bill w/The Exorcist, been a fave every since. And I love Enter The Dragon! It's been tempting me at Wal-Mart's $5 bin.

Enter the Dragon!  They might not be martial arts movies per se, but I really like all of the Zatoichi movies of the 60's.  Love Kill Bill 1 & 2.

- Way of the Dragon (the end fight between Lee and Norris is great theater, especially since it was teacher/pupil in real life)

- Enter the Dragon

- Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

Oh YES! Circle of Iron is my #1 favorite! I have bought that movie at least 5 times as gifts for family members.

How did I forget that one. I saw it recently and it still held up.
