Greetings,

This thread is for those who occasionally need a pick me up, a recharging of the batteries, or a second wind.

Post up you favorite fight scenes. Don’t forget to number them so that others can easily locate and get their fix.

I have to kick things off with The Pops and two other fantastic actor/choreographers:

1- Pedicab Driver (w/Sammo Hung)

I can’t go on youtube on my home computer; is the clip from They Live the one between Roddy Piper and the other guy in the alley? I remember that was a funny (and long) fight. They Live was a great film.

Hi Jimbo,

Yes it is.

There is some talk on the net about the scene being much longer than what it was. Some say that it was 15 minutes long.

I’m wondering if this thread might attract more participation if it was renamed, maybe to something like “Great Movie Fights!” or something like that. This is a fun thread.
