circa02 Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 Can anyone please point me too movies that contain the following: -A sword fight where the two opponents heave two swords each, as in two in each hand. -A good showing of the 3 Sectional Staff -A hand to hand fight that's realistic (I mean, as realistic as it can get in a martial arts movie) Thanks in advance.

Ravencroft Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 Pretty much any Bruce Lee movie will give you smoething realistic...i mean for choreographed fights they are as realistic as they come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
battousai16 Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 well, i don't know what you mean by a "good" showing of a 3 section staff (realistic? sweet? ), but the master of the flying guillotine has a pretty neat fight, though it's short. i've also seen a quick clip of one from a jackie chan movie; i think it was fearless hyena, but i'm not sure on that one. for realistic fight scenes, it's been awhile since i've seen it, but i seem to remember jackie chan's the prisoner (actually, it's not really a jackie chan movie as much as he's in it and fights once or twice) as being farely brawl-ish. maybe not to much. snatch? else, i'd just go for UFC maybe? i dunno. i don't dig realistic fight scenes that much; they're not as entertaining. i can't think of any double sword stuff off hand, but jackie chan's city hunter (a terrible movie, i really don't recomend it) has some double tonfa versus double club/whip thingies.... ummm... yeah, i got nothin'.

steveb Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 Jackie Chan's Shanghai Noon has a short piece at the end where he uses a 3-section staff. Also some fun spear and sword work. Fun movie all around but as for realistic??? Res firma, mitescere nescit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravencroft Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 Yeah gotta agree with battousai on this one, with exception realistic fight scenes just arent as entertaining. its more fun when they do stuff u know isnt possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunken Monkey Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 i think the film you're talking about is 'island of fire'.... maybe.... real fighting.. how about in bridget jones when those two blokes have a go in the restaurant? there's a film that has a few 'not so flashy' fight sequences in it.... 'prodigal son'. its not by any means 'realistic' but it very well put together. post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."

battousai16 Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 "i think the film you're talking about is 'island of fire'.... maybe.... " yeah, could be. i don't know, it's been a long time since i've been on a jackie chan binge... i forget. a movie called "they live", now that i think of it, has a pretty realistic (i guess) fight scene in it, though they have ridiculously high endurance (one of them takes, like, seven knees to the groin). but that's about as realistic as i can think of.

Zorba Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 check out jet li's "Shaolin Temple" from 1979. that has some seriously good weopon work. tho i dont think they actually fight with them. 2 swords in each hand huh. now that would be impressive.

Drunken Monkey Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 yeah but... A sword fight where the two opponents heave two swords each, as in two in each hand read that line again... post count is directly related to how much free time you have, not how intelligent you are."When you have to kill a man it costs nothing to be polite."
