GhostlySykanRyu Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 Anything with Bruce Lee or Jackie Chan is a must for me... My favorite comedy is Kung Pow:Enter The Fist. Insulting to the martial arts? Maybe, but in a light-hearted way...to me it mock's the ignorance in people's views of the MAs more than anything. We just need to learn to laugh with them and shrug it off until the time comes (when they see the effects of training). "Do not worry about the chosen one. I am going to kill him...with a rock, you know? Like a stone or something." To condemn the art of another is to condemn your own as well. We all have the same origin.

foreveryoung001 Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 Depending on mood, any of the following might be my favorite... Shawshank Redemption Brave Heart The Matrix (Only the first one. I thought the whole concept was pretty cool.) Dr. No French Kiss (Hay, how'd that one get on the list?) Better Off Dead Monty Python's Holy Grail Student: "Why did you hit that guy with a chair? Why didn't you use your karate?"Master: "Hitting him with a chair was the only karate I could think of at the time."Lesson: Practice until you don't have to think.

battousai16 Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 i'd argue that kung pow: enter the fist makes less fun of martial arts and more fun of martial arts movies.

aefibird Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 Indeed I must... i'll start walking now, expect me in 3-6 years. Ok, I'll have a cuppa tea waiting for you in 2007! i just saw shaun of the dead on friday. what a brilliant movie. you should all go see it right now. absolutely hilarious. S.O.T.D. is one mega funny movie. I agree with bat - GO AND SEE IT! I like Kung Pow too. Very funny send-up of martial arts,martial artists and martial arts movies. Another film in that same vein is Tongan Ninja. A must-see if anyone is into spoof movies. "Was it really worth it? Only time and death may ever tell..."

battousai16 Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 whoop, there's pressure, and here i thought i was gonna' take my time... ah well, as long as i'm speedy, i'll be able to push cheeky musician to class... y'know...as long as i'm in the neighborhood... and i just went out and watched SOTD again. i don't generally see movies in the theater twice, but it was just that good. i really dig it. and while i was there, i walked into hero. y'all should see that, too. the first time i saw kung pow, i really hated it. but i really wasn't in the mood, and i watched it a second time with some buddies, and it got a few more cheap laughs out of me. it had to work its way up to my liking "I hear you can kill 200 men and play a mean six string at the same time..."-Six String Samurai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunken Monkey Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 hmm, does SotD qualify for a GF rating? 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."
