98- Spartacus, Kirk Doulgas, Woody Strode starring. According to the autobiography by Woody Strode, "Goal Dust", the following fight scene was 15 minutes long and included empty hand fighting. Most of it, obviously, was cut. I do not know if they ever restored it. It would definitely be worth seeing.

99- The following were the inspiration to the outtakes the Jackie would use at the end of his movies. They are from Cannonball Run And Cannonball Run II:

100- Ong Bak 3, Tony Jaa starring. I thing Tony Jaa was successful in portraying a spiritual transformation in the character he portrayed. I enjoyed the fight choreography:

103 - Yes Madam (end fight. Michelle Yeoh vs. Chung Fa; Cynthia Rothrock vs. D!ck Wei)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tz-4W...eature=related

One of Michelle Yeoh's first films (I believe it was her 2nd). Cynthia Rothrock's first, and probably best onscreen performance. I particularly liked how, although Michelle Yeoh wasn't a "traditionally-trained" MAist, that she had an onscreen intensity when she was young that made her performance particularly convincing.

107- The Master Strikes, End fight scene (Ti Lung, Chan Wai Man). This is considered by many to be Part II of the Kung Fu Instructor. What makes this scene so great is that is is performed by outstanding martial artists who happen to be great actors as well. The acting by Chan Wai Man is outstanding here.

108- Savate (aka The Fighter) Olivier Gruner. I don't know what happened to his MA movie career. He seemed to disappear just as people were finally learning how to pronounce his name. His second movie Nemesis, is essential viewing for Terminator fans as it fits in seamlessly with the Terminator saga.

109- The Eagle Killer. end Fight (Hwang Jang Lee, John Chang) This flick almost totally ruined my interest in Chinese MA. Hwang Jang Lee played a villain who also happened to be ghay. His character established the terms of the student/teacher relationship when he tied Chang's character to the "bench" in the brothel. It totally freaked me out because it had me thinking that that was what all masters did.

mickey,
What I remember of The Eagle's Killer was that Hwang Jang Lee's villain played a very cruel trick on John Chang's character by putting him in that bad situation with some g@y kung fu bodybuilders(?). Not necessarily that Hwang's character was g@y himself. Anyway, that was my impression.

Hi Jimbo,

Up until that time Hwang's character never accepted the guy as his student. It was only after that time, at the end fight scene, that he called the guy his student.
