I think that the best fight scene is Jackie Chan Vs Brad Allan in Gorgeous
I thought that was especially well done. The two weren't trying to kill each other, but just to make each other give up first.
The rhythm and choreography was nice.
Matrix: Neo (Keanu Reeves) vs. Agent Smith
Neo vs. Morpheus
Final Fantasy 8 introduction movie:
Squall vs. Seifer with Gunblades (I know it was only computer generated)
Invincible Armor: The last fight in the movie
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon:
Where the two women fight in the weapon hall (I don't remember their names, but if you have seen the movie, it is in the room where one of the women used every weapon in the room against the woman armed with the Green Destiny)
At the beginning of that Bruce Lee dramatization featuring Ho Chung Tao, Yip Chun plays his father.
They practice using traditional chi sao.
In "Tiger Claws", Bolo Yeung defeats his sifu in a contest of seated pushing hands - truly a terrifying demonstration of kung fu.
Jackie Chan Vs. Brad Allan in Gorgeous
Jackie Chan Vs. Hwang In-Sik in young master
Jackie Chan vs. Ken Lo in Drunken Master II
Neo vs. Morpheus in Matrix
Bruce Lee vs. Chuck Norris in fist of fury
Final fight of OUATIC
Iron Monkey - Wong Kay Ying(DonnieYen) vs. the 4 Shaolin Monks. Also, the WongKY vs. IronM roof top fight.
Roadhouse - While not a traditional KF flick it has some great fight scenes.
Phantom Menace - Darth Maul vs. Obi Wan & Quai Gon
Death-Duel of Kung-Fu has several cool fight scenes involving John Liu, Wang Tao, Han Ying, and the "elite guards." (An unintentionally funny thing in this movie is that several times the fighters face each other in on guard positions from 30 feet away!).
Operation Scorpio: Liu Chia-Liang (Lau Ka-Leung) fights the "Scorpion" stylist, using his "no-shadow kick" against the Scorpion guy's (Taekwondo) kicks.
Tang Wei vs. Ren Shi-Guan at the end of The Killer Wears White. This is a particularly brutal fight, with Tang Wei in handcuffs half the time.

the best fight scene ever is gordon liu vs. johnny wang from return to the 36th chamber.
1st half with liu against everyone with the sweet tea benches would be the part I would consider the best, then Wang and Liu is great also.
Heads or Tails?
--Chen Sing vs. gorillas wearing kung-fu shoes in Bruce Li The Invincible pwn3d!!
--Carter Wong in Born Invincible whenever he draws the 8 trigrams symbol with his foot around his opponents.

--Leung Kar Yan vs. Yasuaki Kurata in Legend of a Fighter
--Samo Hung vs. Fung Hark On in Magnificent Butcher
--Kwan Tak Hing vs. Fung Hark On in Dreadnaught.
--Phillip Ko vs. anyone

Who the hell are you jimbo, post again man, nobody else cares, but you have answered a question I posed a long time ago, has anybody else seen shadow ninja? But now I can post if anyone has seen killer wears white because your 3rd scene there is EASILY one of the greatest fight ever, let's just say that they are not not trying to hit eachother. It will seriously leave you breathless.
And I will certainly buy Operation scorpio based off of your opinion.
THANK YOU

jethro:
Let's just say that back in the '80s I had a lot of time and opportunity to watch a LOT of old-school KF films. (certainly a lot of which probably nobody but a hard-core fanatic would know or care about).
Recently saw for 1st time Showdown at the Cotton Mill starring Chi Kuan-Chun and Tan Tao-liang as the villain. I must say, the final fight between these two is the best southern hands vs. northern kicks fight scene I've ever seen filmed, IMO. Tan Tao-liang is of course the awesome superkicker, like John Liu (he taught Liu TKD). Tan usually played a hero, but seems more at home playing a bad guy, like in this film and in The Blooded Treasury Fight; he has much more of an edge to his persona as a villain.
Oddly enough, I had forgotten about this thread...it's been years, I've only logged back on here recently.
Wind Chasing Fists
Right now I'm really into Hwang Jang Lee Vs Jackie Chan in the original Drunken Master.
"Let your rapidity be that of the wind, your compactness that of the forest.
In raiding and plundering be like fire, in immovability like a mountain.
Let your plans be dark and impenetrable as night, and when you move, fall like a thunderbolt." - Sun Tzu
