nice arguement but jet li has now quit martial arts movies so doesnt this also mean that he is thus yesterdays hero and someone else will be taling his place so with this i say cant an old memory be kept alive and people believe what they want about who they want

oh im not ignoring the currents i think jet li rocks and i like ong bak and shoalin socker is really good i recently watched kung fu hustle it made me laugh cry and was a good martial arts film i just remember bruce lee being a trend setter have you seen kung fu hustle?

havnt actually heard of it so there are two of us who study jeet kune do wow i study from book though i want to see lady deathstrike i think its called not sure is it good warrior king? will look out for it ta!

hehe yeah ill be starting classes in 2 weeks as well as GKR.

and warrior king is the sequel to ong bak, so yeah, top notch filum

I can't believe no one mentioned Drunken Master (Or maybe they did and I just didn't notice).

Do Jean-Claude Van Damme films class as martial arts? The storylines are crap, but the action in some of them is great.

Also Enter The Dragon & Game of Death are up there.

I don't know many obscure ones, only the mainstream ones really.

to name a few..
zatoichi
arahan
whasango (volcano high)
azumi
once upon a time in china 1,2,3
house of flying daggers
shinobi
the promise
the twins effect
so close
shadowless sword
shaolin soccer
fearless
fong sai yuk

I study/studied Jeet Kune Do too! So far my favourite Martial Art. I had to stop lessons because of money reasons, but I still practice some of it on my own.
Also, I agree with the guest- Drunken Master HAS to be THE best MA film. Jackie Chan's let it slip with pretty much all his recent releases (can't really blame him, he is 53 I think), but that is the defining moment of his career. Perfection.

lot of posts here about the more recent films, aite sure the ground breaking stunts are crazy especially Tony Jaa's films, but if your actually looking for a lot of martial arts, surprising how so few mentioned jackie chans original films

Drunken Master
Snake In the Eagles shadow.

I used to think of jackie as some crap comedy martial artists that stared in films like Who am I and rush hour but after watching those .. they speak for themselves. And altho bruce lee is dead i still dont think anyones surpassed his skill just from the pure fact that no one has reached his physical state of fitness yet, go wikipedia him and ull know what im talking about.
