Is Shaolin-Do for real?

[kwaichang]

Who really knows what it was called in Indonesia , It could have been called Kun Tao or Naha Te KC

Yeah, because using a Chinese word in your school name is the smart way to throw people off the scent, huh? No way Shorinji would have worked better in that scenario.

Not really the point. I don't care what he called it. Just bringing a newb up to speed without having to have him sift through this thread. Maybe he did call it Shorinji. Maybe he called it Shotokan or Shorin-ryu . We do know that he didn't use the name "Shaolin-Do" b/c that's the term Sin The adopted for his schools. If Hiang's camp is telling the truth, it was to become Chung Yen, eventually, and it had several masters....not just Ie Chang Ming....

Shorinji/Shaolin-do/Chung Yen....it's just names, man.

By the way MK, saw Shaolin Master Killer for the first time yesterday.....kickass movie. Funny though, with the whole bo staff circling doo-jobs on the razors....I have two staff forms that teach the same principle. I know it's just a movie, but I found that edifying.

Know of any other really good Kung fu flicks?.....Fist of the White Lotus was wierd, and so was Return to 36 Chambers......good, but wierd...

[Shaolin Wookie]

Then again....I'll let KC do the talking. He knows better than I.

[kwaichang]

[Shaolin Wookie]

[kwaichang]

Fist of the White Lotus is a sequel to Executioners from Shaolin so if you liked it I'd recommend watching the first one. In terms of other movies, the Kung Fu genre is broad so it depends on what you like. If you like old school, check out Mad Monkey Kung Fu, that's a 70s Kung Fu classic.

I heard a rumor (I cannot vouch to it's authenticity) that Grandmaster The is trying to get a movie made about his life......honest to God I heard that!

I'm just wondering if it would be classified as fiction or non-fiction!

[Judge Pen]

He's been interested in making a martial arts movie for a while. Who knows if it will ever happen.
