    I prefer flicks such as:
    -a snake in the eagles shadow
    -Drunken Master
    -Spiritual Kung Fu

    All of which have horrible acting, but supurb Fight sceens.
    If you gauge KF movies for acting then your watching them for all the wrong reasons. I've yet to see a single KF movie with good acting...

    You obviously haven't seen the right ones.....

    Fist of Legend with Jet Li had good acting too.
    All right now, son, I want you to get a good night's rest. And remember, I could murder you while you sleep.
    Hey son, I bought you a puppy today after work. But then I killed it and ate it! Hahah, I´m just kidding. I would never buy you a puppy.

    ...if by 'good' you mean 'not completely embarassing.'

    Once again, if you've never had a role that DID NOT require you to perform a spinning crescent kick, you are NOT a real actor.

    First you get good, then you get fast, then you get good and fast.

    I beg to disagree but if your role is dependent on a kick,I´m willing to bet that the actor won´t grow too hot.

    well........ as good as acting can get (almost) in a movie that is build up by different fight scenes.

    That was I think "Twin Dragons" aka "Tai Chi Master".

    Either that or one of the Fong Sai Yuk movies.

    Also in Big Boss, or whatever it is we're calling it. I love the bit where Bruce Lee has to fight all those Alsatian dogs and they're all flying around over his head and stuff.

    My least favourite jacked up kung fu movie moment has to be in Dragon's Claws. The old master is making some kind of medicinal remedy/tonic for the star of the show, and the essential ingredient is children's urine . Thanks to this crazy old man the local kids end up having a pissing competition.. mostly just pissing in the old dude's face. Then he goes and serves it to the unsuspecting student who chokes as soon as he samples it. He asks "What is this", at which the master goes (in his best dodgy old man voice) "children's urine".

    It's hilarious, but kind of disturbing at the same time.

    WTF?
    He left his slide rule at home, duh!

    I liked the Street Fighter 2 sequence in Jackie Chan's City Hunter. When Gary Daniels and Jackie Chan were Ken and Chun Li.
