Go Go Calvin-zilla!

Lol! I remember the first time I saw a dubbed karate movie and thought the same thing...why do they keep moving their mouths after they're through talking...lol...the things kids notice & wonder about crack me up

I know what you mean. I’m a big fan of a lot of the Chinese and Japanese martial arts films. Especially the old ones. That’s one of the best parts of those films, the dubbing. Some of it’s really funny to watch.

I had Korean friends. Her dad loved Bruce Lee...that was my first experience. It was hilarious to me. But I just didn't get it and it made her dad mad. Lol! Since then, I became a fan of Bruce Lee. I really like the newer movies. The House of Flying Daggers is a gorgeous movie and good fight scenes.

Most of the lower budget ones are the most poorly dubbed. Those are the funniest ones to me. The House of Flying Daggers is a great movie. A well done film. Bruce Lee is still the greatest of them all in terms of movie martial artists. It was an absolute tragedy that he died so young. His influence will be forever.

I respect his philosophy and his desire to teach others. I don't see him as the greatest in terms of movie martial arts. Have you seen "Hero" with so many fantastic fight scenes? Then there's the Ip Man, too.

I haven’t seen “Hero”. I’ll have to check that one out. I think that Bruce was the most influential figure in the martial arts world. Others might’ve outperformed him in the years after his death, but none of those people quite had the mystique and persona that he had. (Just my opinion at least. 😁)

Definitely he was the greatest influence. Now, it seems Jet Li is influential. I'll watch any movie with Jet Li.

Jet Li is great! I love his movies. He always has a great presence and confidence in his roles. He definitely has always had the top level martial arts skills. One of the true legends. I also love the early Jackie Chan films. Before he got big in America. His combination of fighting skills and slapstick comedy was legendary. He was always putting his life on the line doing his own stunts, too. He was fearless!

Right now I'm watching both Jet Li & Jackie Chan in "Forbidden Kingdom." The first time I saw it, I was surprised Jackie Chan was that good. Previously, I thought he was too foolish. I also like the stories about the Monkey King (which is a part of this movie).

“Forbidden Kingfom” is a good movie. I haven’t watched it in a while though. Jackie Chan was at his best in his 1980s and 1990s Hong Kong movies. I’ll admit that he did get a little too silly sometimes. He had some of the most amazing fight sequences I’ve ever seen though. He truly had skills.
I also like a lot of the Monkey King stories. The animated ones especially.

Got a suggestion for a good Jackie Chan movie where he isn't so silly?
