Hamilton November Thread

[System_1]

Oh yea, I know.
Donnie’s acrobatic, plus he’s pure muscle.
Beastly combination.

Have you seen Seven Swords (w/ Donnie)? Good movie, some really cool ass swords. Too fucking lengthy, but worth at least a viewing.

That’s why I specfically mentioned Jet/Jackie, they’re hasbeens:

Jet = wireful galore, get that shit outta here. It’s old, fake and lame. No one wants to see that shit anymore.

Jackie? The guy can’t even do easy as shit stunts anymore. He’s too old now. And without stunts, he’s uninteresting to watch, in other words, he’s useless now.

Tony Jaa, though. The shit he does, no wires, no body double, no bullshit.
Some of the shit he does I’ve never seen before.
He’s the total package.

Here’s the ranking that my friends and I came up with.

1. Donnie Yen. If you have any questions why, watch the remake of Fist of Fury.
   Other movies for your reference are Iron Monkey, Iron Monkey 2, Legend of Wong Fai Hong 2 and Highlander: End Game. Now everything he does is crisp and clean.

2. Jet Li. Why??? Because he’s the total package of upper body and lower body work. No one, and I mean no one out there today or in the past has a faster set of hands and more accurate feet. Give this man a rope and you’re a dead man. If you want an example of how good Jet is still, watch Kiss of the Dragon. No ropes in that, and he’s still fast and accurate as hell. Also, his hybrid style of boxing and kung fu clearly enteraining to watch. Clearly number 2.

3. Bruce Lee. Although dead, he is still a favourite. Sadly, Bruce was mainly all upper body. Insanely quick hands and a beast of an upper body made him scarey as hell. Sadly, he needed his death to be noticed. A side note, don’t watch Dragon: the Bruce Lee Story, that whole movie is horse shit.

4. Jackie Chan. The man who made Kung Fu Comedy a mainstream. How could you go wrong with Jackie. No one ever watched a Jackie Chan movie for the story. Him doing his own stunts is too good. If you don’t think that Jackie can fight, watch Gorgeous. The second fight seen with that white dood was solid action. Even though his age is slowing him down a little now, there is no one better at entertaining than Jackie.

That is clearly the top 4 without a doubt. Tony Jaa doesn’t make our list because if you’ve ever watched enough Muay Thai, you’d realize that he doesn’t got shit on those guys. If Tony was any good at Muay Thai, he’d be a professional fighting on Wednesday and Saturday nights in Bangkok. What Tony has to do is what Bruce Lee did. Find Bolo and bring him in your next movie. Then fuck him up. I’m sure that you’re quite happy that he’s gonna be the next Drunken Master. He’s over rated though. Just like that white dood from the Transporter.

Any Takers?

Let’s just agree to disagree.

Yea, Jet and Jackie have made awesome movies in the past (emphasize on “past”), but I’m referring to their more recent work, which is disappointingly shit.

Jet’s Hollywood movies, save for Lethal Weapon 4, are mostly shit.
Kiss of the Dragon is refreshingly different in that I don’t think he used any wires and the last fight is awesome. Sadly, the rest of the movie is shit.
His later Mainland Chinese movies, in a way, redeem himself from total failure.

It’s funny, 'cause from an interview Jet did a while ago, he said the story aspect of a film is most important and that’s the main thing he looks for before signing on to a role.
Yet, all the movies he made after the interview is fucking shit story-wise.
And he turned down Chow Yun Fat’s role in CTHD, does he even know what a good story is? Christ. Dumbass.

Jet’s extremely agile that’s for sure, but having the quickest hands and feet is arguable. Bruce Lee’s still king in those categories in my opinion.
Bruce is mainly upper body? I don’t think so, the quickness, power and accuracy of his legs is well known. Not even debateable.

Jet = speed, no power
Bruce = speed + power

Gorgeous is an awesome, awesome movie. Some of the fights are long and epic. The white guy in that movie is fucking insane. Suprisingly, I don’t remember any noticeable stunts in the movie, but it doesn’t matter 'cause the fights are awesome. Loved it.
Other than that, everything else he’s done (all Hollywood movies and most HK films) isn’t worth mentioning stunt-wise and action-wise.

Donnie’s movies, with the exception of Iron Monkey 2 (probably shit) and Highlander, I’ve seen all the films you’ve mentioned.
The Fist of Fury remake, although I don’t remember any memorable fight scenes (watched a long, long time ago), the series is still great and I recommend every martial arts enthusiasts to check it out.
Those movies don’t really display Donnie’s true potential.
His older HK movies really shows why he’s one of the best.

One of the low points in Jackie and Donnie’s career is when they guest appeared in that…movie (shit, forgot the name)…it starred most up and cumming HK actors/actresses. And the fight between them could’ve been memorable and epic, but it was some of the shittiest fights I’ve ever seen.
It’s basically a carbon copy of the fight between Donnie and Jet in Hero but 1000 times shittier. Unoriginal, uninspired, uninteresting pieces of shit. The whole movie is unwatchable.

Dragon The Bruce Lee Story is great, what you talkin’ aboot?
Good music, good acting, good fights.
Enjoyed it very much.

Tony’s movies, in my eyes, have brought something new to the old and tired martial arts genre and made it interesting again to watch.
If he continues making film that kicks as much ass as Ong Bak, then we are in for a big fat treat.

100 games in a row?
Even if we beat you one game, we get the 100?
And the same Hamilton players can take turns over and over again?

C’mon Rey, Vanny and Javid, do it! DO IT!!!

[RXS]

Nam - go get the trailer for Sha Po Lang (new Donnie Yen movie)… Yen is a fucking beast in that movie. I can’t wait till it comes out

[Javid]

Hmm, what team does Matt use usually? Or maybe I’ll play him on the 17th or some shit.

[Nagata_Lock_II]

id take this challenge also

No, fuck you. You’ve done 100 wins before.

Javid; he’s been using Rowtron lately IIRC.

I’d vote for Jet Li…sure he’s old now, but in his day, he did Fist of Legend. Fist of Legend fucks everything up for free. If you don’t like Fist of Legend, you don’t have a fucking right to say anything about kung fu action movies.

Fist of Legend is Great!!! But me personally, my favourite Jet movie is The New Legend of Shaolin ( I think that it was renamed Legend of the Red Dragon for NA audiences).
