At the end of the original '70's "Drunken Master", Jackie fights a guy in a yellow suit in a field, and he's wearing a black/gray outfit.

Is he drunken boxing? Does the dude in yellow have really fast hands and does he flap them around like dead-hand slaps to eyes, and do a kind of Liu Kang shadow kick near the middle of the fight?

Alright, 20 questions is almost up, so I will make it a really good one. is he a tall white guy with long hair? If so, then it has to be Snake in the Eagle's Shadow. I haven't seen it in a while but I think Roy Horan is wearing a yellow outfit when fighting jackie. And is the main villain so scary with his kung fu that he gives you chills? And is there a mantis style guy in it who goes around beating people down?

It's not the original Drunken Master...maybe the second one? There is no drunken fighting in it though.

[Shaolin Wookie]

What's the original drunken master, then?

I'm talking about the one where he's young, meets the drunk after being consigned to him by his father, does an exposition of 8 immortals (each one), but doesn't practice Mistress Ho......which ends up being the most powerful..........

He fights a dude in a yellow suit for like 5-10 mins...........

I can't get the vid clip off the other thread........

[Royal Dragon]

Yeah, you got the original Drunken Master.

There were 3 of them. The Original is "Drunken Master", the second was called "Return of Drunken Master", and the third is more reacent and is called "Legend of Drunken Master"

[jethro]

Drunken Master is about, drunken kung fu of course. Snake in the Eagle's Shadow was the movie made right before that one and has the same cast. Both are definitely worth seeing. The sequel is good- Dance of the Drunken Mantis.

[Royal Dragon]

Sure!! Maybe this summer when the weather is warmer.

[jethro]

Sorry, I don't know what movie it is, but I would like to know. It has to be pre 1978.

[Laukarbo]

This thread will now self-destruct in 5....4.....3.....2.....1......

[oasis]

i was actually about to delete it until laukarbo's post. is this correct? it would make more sense because if this is the final fight in the movie you'd expect to see some drunken style and there isn't any. any thoughts RD?

[Laukarbo]

trust me its shaolin wooden men..theres no drunken boxing..

[Royal Dragon]

I think he is right, Shaolin Wooden men. I'll have to dig that one out. it's in a box still not unpacked from my last move though....5 years ago.....
