jackie chan police story 1 the mall fight scene at the end, and rumble in the bronx where he fights at the gangs place.

jet li once upon a time in china 1, the dock scene where he takes out the rebels with his staff.

I like the scenes in Drunken Master 1+2, and Fist of Legend. Not realistic, but looks good.:wink:

Also some B. Lee movies, for the Retro feel..:wink:

the fight scene at the end with the swords attached to the chain is insane.

9

There is a Jet li scene where he is fighting someone, and he grabs a lamp and uses it in a ropedart/chainwhip kind of way… pretty cool.

10

Blade is just a insane flick…

Jet also uses a kid on a rope as a chain whip :smiley:

11

Cradle 2 the Grave. there’s cma in a cage fight:D

12

first of all - so many i dunno what to pick :eek:

i like the fights in the police story series, especially the mall in PS1, the scene in the park in PS2 or the final fights at the factory… they were just mad.

Also in drunken master 2, the final fight of course but also i like the original fight to get back the stolen diamonds, when he fights his dad at the end…

man i love the way Jackie does things - not realistic but amazing none-the-less :smiley:

i like the monk fight in blade too, amazing to see… theres just so many imo :slight_smile:

Austin’s totally awesome fight scene list:

Jackie Chan vs. Benny ‘the Jet’ Urquidez in Wheels on Meals: Jackie’s greatest fight onscreen. Benny and Jackie are about the same size, although Jackie is built in a V and Benny is a stocky powerful barrel. A few of my many favorite bits are

  1. Early on, they each throw a front kick to the other’s chin simultaneously. Both are knocked down and back, but Jackie recovers faster and kicks Benny while he’s still down, buying time to remove his windbreaker.

  2. Benny throws a high spinning roundhouse, but Jackie sees it coming and throws a spinner in the same rotation, thereby ducking Benny’s kick and connecting with Benny’s head once the Jet stops his movement.

  3. Benny throws Jackie to the floor and grabs his throat - Jackie responds by putting a choke on Benny with his feet. Jackie tries to punch his way out, but can’t do it. Tickling the Jet gets him to back off, though.

Next up is the spear duel between Rokurota Makabe (Mifune) and Izumi Nagakura (Takashi Shimura) in The Hidden Fortress.

Ka-Yan Leung vs. Yi Chang in The Victim (bare hands)

Sammo Hung vs. Liu Chia Liang in Pedicab Driver (bare hands, then sticks)

Jackie Chan vs. Ken Lo in Drunken Master 2 (bare hands)

Bruce Lee vs. Karim Abdul Jabar in Game of Death (bare hands)

Jet Li vs. Billy Chau in Fist of Legend (bare hands, then sword vs. belt)

Jet Li vs. Donnie Yan in Once Upon a Time in China II (sticks, then stick vs. whip)

Liu Chia Hui vs. Lieh Lo in Enter The 36 Chambers (three section staff vs. double saber)

Sammo Hung vs. Chia-Liang Liu in Skinny Tiger, Fat Dragon ( bare hands, then double knives)

for a start…

I would’nt agree w. Lee vs. Kareem, there are better Lee fights. Like vs. the russian in FOF, vs. Bob Wall in ETD, & vs. Chuck Norris in WOTD.
Not good scenes compared to other KF movies, but better than the Kareem fight.:wink:

Chen, I have nothing to say to you except that you’re completely wrong. Not only is Bruce Vs. Kareem Bruce’s coolest fight, it is also one of the mos def fights ever.

This is of course, an objective truth and not a matter of opinion.

I have several reams of pages demostrating it mathematically, but it would go right over your head, so I won’t bother even posting a summary.

PS - Yasuaki Kurata has been in a bunch of really cool fight scenes too, with (among others) Jet Li, Ka-Yan Leung, Bolo Yeung, several Venoms, and Liu Chia Liang. That’s how it goes down when you’re the go-to Japanese Villain guy!

Also Frank Sinatra’s fight with Henry Silva in “The Manchurian Candidate” is tres b!tchin’.

Iz coo. Suit yoself.:wink:

It’s not a “kung fu” fight, but I’m partial to Sean Connery as James Bond in “From Russia With Love.” Red Grant in a cramped train car. Brutal.

As for Kung Fu film fights, I haven’t seen as many as you guys, but my favorite is Jet Li vs. Donnie Yen in Once Upon a Time in China II. That blew me away.

I like Jet’s stuff in Fong Sai Yuk I+II

The last fight in Drunken Master II is dope from jackie.. and the one with The Jet is dope too…
Ivincible Armour has several great training and fight scenes.. Born Invincible is cool too…
