Damn straight. The uncut footage of Game Of Death looked really good! Forget the POS Golden Harvest film that was pieced together with stills and shots of Lee and rounded off with an actor who fit the suit poorly..had the film been done all the way thru with Bruce in it,it would have been another hit.

My favorite Martial Arts films are" Duel to the Death" and "The Master of the Flying Guillotine". These are not very well known, but they are awesome films.

Once Upon a Time in China 1 2 and Last Hero in China
Tai Chi Master
Swordsman 2
Fong Sai Yuk 1 2
Fist of Legend
Kung Fu Cult Master-
New Legend of Shaolin
Iron Monkey
Wing Chun
Drunken Master 2
Young Master
Project A
Prodigal Son
Eastern Condors
Police Story 1 2
Drunken Master
Snake in the Eagle's Shadow

Recommendation for Wuxia/ Swordsplay-
Butterfly and Sword
New Dragon Inn
Fire Dragon
Moon Warriors
All Men are Brothers
Blade of Fury
Swordsman 3: The East is Red

Any martial arts movies made by Yuen Woo Ping are the best.

Martial arts movies genre. A second type of action films, martial arts fight between contains many characters, usually the main attraction of the film and entertainment value, and often used as a method of storytelling and character expression and development. And other action movies, martial arts film is dominated by action to varying degrees.

YES This.
I would also add The Young Master. It was directed by Jackie Chan and has some spectacular choreography. It's a little more on the light side, though.
