The old master in Operation Scorpio, who hides his skills as a noodle cook is none other than Lau Kar Leung/Liu Chia Liang, the HK film legend who is brother to Gordon Liu (who played San Te in Master Killer, etc.)
Other great flicks with Lau Kar Leung include Mad Monkey Kungfu, Eight Diagram Pole Fighters, and two particular favorites with Sammo Hung, Skinny Tiger Fat Dragon and Pedicab Driver.
LKL is probably my very favorite movie MA ever.
All my fight strategy is based on deliberately injuring my opponents. -

"It is the same in all wars; the soldiers do the fighting, the journalists do the shouting, and no true patriot ever get near a front-line trench, except on the briefest of propoganda visits...Perhaps when the next great war comes we may see that sight unprecendented in all history, a jingo with a bullet-hole in him."
First you get good, then you get fast, then you get good and fast.
