Martial Arts, Karate, Kung-Fu, Blu-rays

Flash Point is worth a blind buy imo. An incredibly good action movie with a beefy 7.1 PCM track. Donnie Yen is an A-kicker in this one and his fight with Colin Chou is absolutely breathtaking! SPL (Sha Po Lang) is also another Donnie Yen movie that's worthy of checking out. Not as much fight scenes as Flash Point but Donnie's double whammy, back to back fight just might make it worthy for a purchase.

I really enjoyed Iron Monkey with Jet Li and Jackie Ching. Too bad it is only out on oldray DVD. Iron Monkey is one of THE BEST martial arts movies of all time. It looks horrible on oldray DVD, but it looks STUNNING in HD on the Kung Fu channel. I really hope Dreamworks eventually put this out on Blu-ray.

I also like Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. I want this on BD too.

I want The Protector (not the old Jackie Chan flick). But it needs a new transfer. Freakin' best martial arts film I've seen.

You need to see him in Forbidden Kingdom. He fights Jet Lee.

[DavePS3]

Both Jet and Jackie are great but the new guy in Protector?... bloody amazing. Came out last year on DVD but in Thailand a year earlier. I'm a massive Bruce Lee fan and nobody's been able to impress me like Lee... until this guy.

I would love to see on Blu Ray:

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Iron Monkey
Shaolin Soccer
Battle Royale
Casshern

Edit: Oh, and Hero

[DavePS3]

Same guy in Ong Bak... I just forget his name.

[DavePS3]

I kinda liked Casshern too. It was different.

The Protector has been released in Germany, without english subs, under the title Revenge of the Warrior. Ong Bak is released in France-no info on this disc. I do not know if these are region-free.

What are you, blind or mentally challenged? Jet Li and Jackie chan never starred in Iron Monkey. One of the star was Donnie Yen. You don't sound like you're joking so I'll just assumed that you're uneducated. Jackie Ching- that made me lol.

I always mix up my Martial Arts actors. I thought Jet Li was the Doctor by day / Ninja by night). Thank you for cleaning this up. Sorry if I offended.

Ohh I see. I apologize if I was being too harsh.
