  1. In theory JKD is meant to be perfect because it is no style..it gives the user complete freedom to adapt and counter any style or techniques. however most people believe that they can use this application and be bruce lee overnight, not realizing that even he practiced and studied many other arts in order to create JKD. u cant expect to take the final product without all of the pieces to the puzzle. i would build a solid foundation before looking at JKD. and then once u have a much better understanding of the arts and are better at using them start looking at what it has to offer.
  2. Well lets see, Bruce Lee is dead so not him, Chuck norris is friggen old so hes out, jackie chan is too nice so hed probably lose. So who does that leave? i dont know who would win, this has to be like the 20 millionth time historic and present fighters have been compared to each other.
  3. I believe it was called enough....kind of a corny movie but i think she also did some krav maga in that as well...i recognized a couple of the techniques as KM. and who else...angelina jolie, ever since tomb raider she has been into kickboxing.
  4. Well yeah thats exactly right im just saying that because someone has done movies or television doesn not at all mean they dont know their stuff.
  5. I dont think some of the hollywood MAists are so bad. i mean chuck norris knows his stuff...jackie chan and jet li are phenominal at what they do. i mean just because someones an actor does not mean they dont know what theyre doing.
  6. I personally havent been in too many fights myself so i cant be sure but i can speak from my own experiences. one of the only fights i ever got in(it was also the most recent) i used a high sidekick to the head and nailed him. i think he was a boxer cuz he was fighting like one. the funny thing was eventhough i did it real fast he did attempt to make a very sloppy punch in that split second towards my waist area. it didnt work because i used a block that from what ive seen most TKD schools dont emphasize... blocking ur damn crotch. of course u will get crucified if u open ur crotch up like that but if u block its not really a problem. kicks can work amazingly in a fight as good as anything else, they just need to be practiced and used somewhat conservitavely. but like i said im not someone who has a bunch of fighting experience its just what happened to me.
  7. Wong Fei Hung was amazing...so was Bruce Lee. i honestly dont believe in the whole 30 man gang thing because first of all i think its impossible unless he was fighting a gang of children or he had a machine gun....but still there were fables and stories made after him so what would u expect...obviously hes one of the greatest and a true legend, same goes for Bruce Lee. i try not to compare them cuz they are both infinately better than i will ever be and i respect what theyve done.
  8. In a nutshell, taking the fight to the groung and winning it there. many people who fight professionally study this because most find it fairly practical on the street and in the ring.
  9. Haha...i wont lie...i train to be a tough guy. not a violent bully, but someone who can step up to the plate and deliver. in terms of health it has its benefits but that sort of takes a back seat to combat seeing as how i go to the gym anyway.
  10. well for one thing they seem to have about a million different knives...
  11. Wushu is a lot of fun to watch because its very intricate and beautiful. so are some of the more internal systems that the chinese have like tai chi or bagua if you are in the mood to watch it. i like Jeet Kune Do as well just because its so loose and free and i can really get into it. Capoeira is pretty cool too.
  12. I just thought Ravencroft sounded badass so i went with it. my real nickname doesnt sound as cool so i decided not to use it hehe.
  13. You know who makes a damn good bad guy? Jet Li in friggen Lethal Weapon 4, its too bad he doesnt do more bad guy roles just like that one. Wesley Snipes as Simon Pheonix from Demolition Man is one of my all time favorite villains too.
