What's your favorite martial arts film, /tv/?

Do people still watch these shit when MMA is now a thing?

>>85074209
I haven't seen many. Probably The Raid 2 for all that's worth.

Should I watch 36th Chamber Of Shaolin?

>>85074392
MMA requires no skill. It's just brute force.

>>85074209
Rush Hour 2

>>85074209
I'm gonna go with Drunken Master (any of the old Jackie Chan films really) or Kung Fu Hustle.

>>85074209
kung fu yoga

5 deadly venoms

>>85076025

>those indian qts tho

>>85074209
Circle of Iron

Kung Fu Hustle or Police Story

martial arts should never be taken seriously

Fearless

That vibrating fist scene in the closed tavern fight is a better culmination to the "stepping over to the dark side" motif than anything we've seen in Star Wars

>>85074776
Incorrect homie. MMA takes plenty of skill. If you're talking streetfights without rules then you may have a point but MMA has gone from styles clashing to almost a hybrid style of it's own

>>85074209
Big time love for Once Upon A Time In China. Jet Li while still in great form, fun wirework and stunts alongside some beautiful camerawork and fight choreography.

Drunk Master 2 is a very strong contender for greatest non-Shaw martial arts film. Axe gang fight scene is probably Jackie Chan's best ever.

My personal favorite is Fist of Legend, because it's just a fantastic story and peak condition Jet Li.

Also for a long time, I've loved The Blade (1995), which is probably Tsui Hark's last truly great film.

idk about best overall martial arts film, but this is the best martial arts fight scene, hands down.

>>85077866
He was alright, for a LARPer.

Ninjas aren't real. There is no proof that they existed before the ninja 'school' started to pop up and make people pay to learn how to be a ninja around the 1900s when ninjas were all the rage in fiction in Japan.

At least, there is no proof that any of the modern schools have anything to do with potentially real ninjas of the past.

>>85077978
Not really. The guys are good enough, but the camera work is sloppy at best. It's a good scene and it works, but it's not 'the best'.

>>85078032
You're a moron on both historical and artistic grounds.

36th Chamber of Shaolin and Drunken Master II.

36 Chambers of Shaolin
Bruce Lee flicks
Raid 1 and 2
All those are great, but my personal favorite is 5 Fingers of Death.

Tony Jaa has a few good films. Ong Bak is great, but this scene in The Protector is well shot.

>>85077330
Lmao wtf is this shit

>>85078084
Completely agree with you here. The Raid series were good, but the camera work just ruined everything about it.

Mine is probably spl ii a time for consequences, but I also really like crouching tiger hidden dragon. Oh and universal soldier day of reckoning.

>>85074392
There are good mma based martial arts films (haywire, flash point with donnie yen).

Are you one of the spergs that complains about how the lobby shootout in the matrix is unrealistic?

The Star Wars Saga

>>85079053
Wipe your ass and then get the fuck out of here

>>85079053
Tbh it's kind of hilarious how star wars has actively resisted becoming a martial arts series.

>>85078808
Your last line has nothing to do with my question... did you just type that out for the sole purpose of expanding your post?

>>85074449
This may be my answer as well.

I love Chinese (and less so, Korean) historic drama type shows and movies though. Hero may be a step above the rest.

>>85078594
I remember when Ong Bak and Protector came out, everyone was like oh shit, finally a new martial arts star to rival Jackie -- what the fuck happened to this dude?

>>85079491
He's meant to be weird as fuck in person. He ran off to go live in the woods during the filming of Ong Bak 2 apparently to go live with his elephant. Dude's a nutcase. Probably vanished to go find nature again.

>>85079491
He was in spl ii a time for consequences, the best martial arts film of the 2010s. And he's gonna be in the new spl film (getting released as paradox here I think).

>>85079553

Why would mma stop people from watching martial arts films?

Touch of Zen is fucking amazing.

>>85074392
Because films and real life don't necessarily have to interject you autistic piece of shit.

It's on wiki, didn't say he was living with elephants but at one point in time he was a legit Buddhist Monk for a number of years.

You can't really compare the two. Martial Arts movies are all about presentation and choreography. MMA is a competition - it used to be people showing up with all different styles and trying different things - what it's evolved into is just a product of taking all the things from different styles that worked, and throwing out all the things that don't.

>>85080367
That's a Thai thing. A lot of people do that for a few years there.

>>85075630
This is great but the multiple, non-descript titles (swordsmen, dragon, wuxia) make it hard to track down.
