Dirty Ho doesn’t sound like a MA film title… then again would I be guessing rightly that it is more than 10 years old?
i like your style HKV (and i thought i might have been original here for once)

Once Upon a Time in China

Enter the Dragon

Uhh..
Am I the only one who thinks the first Drunken Master was better than the second?
No way man Part 2 was so much better!
But hey we all have our own opinions

What’s everybody’s favorite Jet Li movie? Mine is the one directed by Liu Jia Liang Martial Arts of Shaolin. I think its the 3rd movie of the Shaolin series that stars Jet Li. I liked it because it didnt have alot of wire work. I think Jet looks better without the wire stuff. Also, his fight scenes didnt look like 2 man wushu fighting forms.
My favorite Jet Li movie, thats a hard one he’s been in so many quilty flicks, but I’d have to say that The Legend or Once Upon a Time in China are his two best films

Wan Ma Kai, I totally agree with you…
I’m really into Fist of Legend. But then, I’m really into Yasuake Kurata and Billy Chow as well.
Reasonable men can agree to disagree, so probably you and I can too.
The Legend? Is that the pathetically bastardized Americanized version of Fong Sai Yuk?
Fave Jet movie: There are so many good ones it’s so hard to call…my personal faves are:
Shaolin Temple
Tai-Chi Master
Bodyguard from Beijing
High Risk
Once Upon a Time in China 1 and 2
New Legend of SHaolin
My Father is a Hero
I even like The Master and Kung-Fu Cult Master. And I did like Born to Defense also. I’m not particularly fond of Hitman.
Amitabha!
We are trained in wushu; we must protect the Temple!
Something to think about: What if Liu Jia Liang was the fight choreographer for Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, and he used some of the actors and actresses from his old movies (Liu Jia Hui, Wang Long Wei,Hui Ying Hung,) in cameo appearances??? How different would the movie be?
My Top 5 thoughts…
- The Shaolin Temple
- Police Story
- Fist of Legend
- Crouching Tiger
- Five Superfighters
“We had a thing to settle so I did him”
Tamai, 43, was quoted by Police as saying.

I am having a hard time here. I have not seen many KF movies, but I have seen several that are making many of your lists and I really didn’t like them.
Even movies I liked as a child (back in the Blackbelt Theater days)were painful to watch as an adult.
I used to love Five Deadly Venoms. Watched it now and thought it was really dumb.
I rented Taichi Master I and II. Hated them.
I rented Once Upon a Time in China. Not a fan.
Rented Green Hornet. Torture to watch.
I don’t enjoy Bruce Lee’s movies anymore.
So what did I like?
Of Jet Li’s movies: Fist of Legend and Leathal Weapon IV
Of Chan’s movies? I like every one I have seen (mostly the newer ones) NO WIRES=COOL
What wire movies did I like? Crouching Tiger (I thought the wirework fit in with the mythos of the setting) and The Matrix (once again in that context wires made sense).
Seagal was OK in Above the Law and both Under Siege I and II.
I liked Brandon Lee in Rapid Fire and The Crow.
I don’t get mad.
I get stabby.
Stranger
I can agree,
I used to love the 5 venoms, and kid with the golden arm, but watching them now makes me cringe.
Some of the all time best movies are Sammo’s production
Prodigal Son
The Victim- the fight scene towards the end against a mantis guy was well done.
You said you haven’t seen many KF films, if you like i can email my complete list…of minus venoms and alot of the black belt theatre ones 
So far I was able to please the toughest critics with my choices
Why cringe-ish? What do you dislike that you used to like?~ (not merely RENEGADE MONK).
Very some such, perhaps might have been, likely say some, some not.
My 10 favs
Let’s see, this is not in any particular order:
Shoalin Master Killer
Wheels on Meals
Fists of Fury
Once Upon TIme in China 2
Tai Chi Master (Twin Warriors)
Iron Monkey
Drunken Master 2
Prodigal Son
Blade Of Fury
Magnificent Butcher
