Yeah, isn't Seagal a genuine Aikido umpteenth Dan or something?

[/ QUOTE ]True. But isn't everybody these days? Does anyone else remember back in the late 80s when he was going around claiming to be the baddest guy on Earth? He like issued an open invitation to take on all comers or something silly. He specifically called out some of the old Karate guys by name, and had a few of them pretty worked up about it. It was all pretty funny.

Jet Li in the Once Upon a Time in China series (1-3) were pretty good -

the dragon mask scene at the end of number 3 is just wild.

I think Blade deserves some mentions, [censored] even almost anything JC is in has some cray stuff man. My personal fav though, Bruce Lee in Big Boss, that ice plant stuff is killah!

yes these are good. they follow the same character as jackie chan's drunken master, but when he is more mature. also the same character the kid plays in iron monkey (i believe played by a girl).

another good jet li movie is twin warriors. funny with some good fight scenes, if you can get over the whole superhuman abilities thing.

"if you can get over the whole superhuman abilities thing. "

I liekd Twin Warriors (also known as Tai Chi Master) but in general I hate this. Not being able fight a billion people at once or whatever - that's what MA movies are about; just when they can fly or jump enormous distances etc. That's magic, not martial arts.
