Hung Sing Boyz, we gottit on lock down
when he's around quick to ground and pound a clown
Bruh we thought you knew better
when it comes to head huntin, ain't no one can do it better
I wonder if it will be about Hung Sing or King Mui stuff.
A movie about Tarm Sarm would also be wicked as hell, IMO.
It is bias to think that the art of war is just for killing people. It is not to kill people, it is to kill evil. It is a strategem to give life to many people by killing the evil of one person.

I can't really tell a whole lot about it, but from the sounds of it the movie will be a modern movie of some fashion involving a son who returns back to China after his father dies to inherit his martial arts school. For some reason or other he starts training in CLF and goes from noob to advanced quickly. The movie itself was also said to be a "martial arts comedy" but to how that works out I have no idea. Its supposed to come out towards the end of this year.

Talks a little more about the movie along with who stars in it and such. I'm not 100%, but I think there's another Choy Li Fut movie in some phase of development, but that's all I heard.

Hello all,
I think there are 2 CLF movies coming out end of this year or early next year.
Hopefully they reach the states soon.
Sifu Wong from Ging Mui choreographed the fight scenes and CLF training for the movies in China.
The story lines include martial arts, some comedy, and of course some baseline story.
Is this the beginning of a trend to bring back traditional kung fu to cinema? I hope so.

'Choy Li Fut Boxing' is a modern time, martial art comedy movie, besides martial art, the movie is not lack of romance. Wang Baoqiang and Michelle Ye who've worked together before in 'Fire of Conscience' will be collaborating again, this time around playing a couple. Speaking of her impression towards Wang Baoqiang, Michelle Ye revealed: "Too dazzling, too adorable, we've been looking forward to working together again since our last collaboration last year."

It's a hybrid style with some added capoeira for flash.

That is what they said - it is a movie based on true stories of some modern time CLF masters. But the movie season is very crowded. So I will also be very selective, and pick other movies to watch in the theatre. According to current movie release rate on TV, it will probably available in the local TV stations two years later. I do not mind to watch it on TV then.

Yeah, but it still doesn't have to look tv. And by tv I mean these stark, flat focused, single point in the room, scenes. Like soap operas. Camera movement is very important. Even more so are the lighting issues in HD. The picture is just too perfect. lighting has to be way more subtle.
