I've been meaning to start this thread for some time now. I have an excuse for it now. It just strikes me as an unusual stereotype. Let's make a list, shall we?

Master Po in Kung Fu (Couldn't find a thread on the original series, but this will do for now)

Zatoichi

Blind avenger in Crippled Avengers (no thread on this film but it comes up a few times in our Favorite kung fu movies of all time thread.)

Hundred Eyes in Marco Polo

DareDevil

Blind Master in G.I. Joe Retaliation

This is just for starters. I'm sure there are more.
