Awesome!!!
As you will see from my avatar I a bit of a fan! Without doubt one of the corniest but coolest films of all time.

Did you know they planning a remake, with Samuel L Jackson playing Shonuff!!!

I'm also a big fan of Jackie Chan, mainly his old stuff like Police Story, wheels on meals, drunken master and armour of god!!!

As far as the thread goes, lately I'm a big Yoji Yamada fan. Twilight Samurai and Hidden Blade are great samurai films, although the first in particular is too low on action to qualify as a "martial arts movie."

For the more action-oriented, I really enjoyed Fighter in the Wind.

Its not what you expect.
