Your "Top 10" Best Asian Films with the Best Martial Arts Fighting
You can include the "old school" classics and the "new school" films from now.
Your top 10 best can include any and all forms and styles of fighting from kung-fu to karate to JuJitsu, etc, etc.. Everything's included as long as it's a traditional Asian form of martial arts fighting.
Wires acts, weapons, and magic are ok but hand-to-hand Combat is what should be focused on
Now remember, the thread doesn't focus on story-telling but the amount of good quality martial arts fighting scenes. So Focus On That..
BEGIN !!

"Hero" was crazy, and the newer films do look good cause they're sharper visually and audibly but the old ones have that grainy raw grindhouse feel too 'em so i like both. I don't like it when the new stuff adds CGI to it sometimes..
i love the cheese sometimes too. "Fool. You want to challenge me?...Then you must be tired of living!" lol.
I just got 5 films. I just popped in "Master Killer". I also got "5 Deadly Venoms", Jet Li's "Fist of Legend", "The Shaolin Temple" and my personal all time favorite martial arts movie, "The Chinese Connection" starring Bruce Lee.
They came highly recommended from friends that're really, really into karate flik's.
"Lone Wolf and Cub" is another one i liked when i saw it. It's a Samurai flik.

* Hero - as mentioned above, stunning fight sequence and an all round perfect film in my eyes.
* Enter the Dragon - The first ever Martial Arts film I saw in my life, so it has to go in my list, and Bruce Lee, come on. With a fantastic early 70s score It's a American/Chinese mix release so it counts.
* SPL/Satt Po Long(or Killzone for you stupid Americans :P ) - Has some amazing brutal fight sequences in this film from Hong Kong, came out in 2005, Donnie Yen, Sammo Hung and Jacky Wu in one film.
