News on TYG2. Itās nice that Jeeja Yanin (Chocolate) is getting a nice sized role in this movie. And RZA has a role as well. You can read thefull article here
Iāll take that as itās not that spectacular. So far the martial arts films I own are:
Ninja Assassin
Jet Liās Unleashed, Fearless, anf Fist of Legend
Spirited Killer
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Jackie Chan Spiritual Kung Fu
Volcano High
Kung Fu Dunk
Shinobi
The Executioner
The Rebel
Chocolate
As far as your list, you may need to get your martial arts movie weight up.
If you are looking for Donnie Yen, then check out Ip Man and Flashpoint. Chocolate is a good movie. Also not for the story but for the choreography I would suggest Undisputed 3. Marko Zaror and Scott Adkins did really good work together and it was nice seeing crisp choreography. What martial arts movies have you seen or what type are you into (wire fu, realistic, kung fu).
I am actually about to order some Martial arts BRās but I can only order three for the time being. These are what I am looking at:
The Raid: Redemption
Marentau
Ip Man
TYG1
Ong Bak1
Kung Fu Hustle
13 Assassins
Right now itās looking like Ip Man, TYG 1 and The Raid may get bought.
I dont think i have any kung fu bluray moviesā¦Are they worth the upgrade from dvd? I think i have like 100+ kung fu movies. Havenāt bought movies in a long time.
Usually when I go to Arundel Mills, I check out the movie stand by the Dave & Busterās where they show martial arts films. Thatās where I usually get my movies from as I recall.
Iāve heard a lot of good things about Ip Man and seen fight scenes of it. Itās very good. Flashpoint, I may have seen. Itās hard to say what Iām into, but I would say choreography. I love it when a good movie gets me pumped, so I would say realistic. Iām a big fan of cat fights, too.
I like Marentau, but I felt it was a light verson compared to The Raid. I will buy 13 Assassins. As far as Kung Fu movies, I know Enter the Dragon on Blu Ray has mass features and extra content. I would like to get Jackie Chanās Legend of Drunken master even if itās for the ending fight against Ken Lo. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DASVxFS5tg
I am also interested in some Wu jing movies as well, not quite sure where to start.
If it wasnāt for the lame ass ending, this could have been an all time classic film.
As for Wu Jing a.k.a Jacky Wu movies- my suggestion would be Tai Chi 2, Fatal Contact, & Legendary Assassin. He is the main in those films, pretty much the rest of his films he does supporting cast.
did some weird watchdog inspired shoot today. its probably gonna end up being 5-10 min thing in the end. reconnected with a stunt friend of mine and met another stunt guy. plan on doing some stuff later down the line, hopefully get some cool projects ive had in my head for a while off the ground. Itās my first time working with some stunt guys finally, it was good to know i actually know some things after all these years of being stuck in a dojo lol.
I spoke with someone else on here about possibly doing a 5-10 min shoot. I have some ideas as well, but really donāt know where to begin as far as shooting fight scenes. Itās basically something me and my martial arts buddies want to try out (one does Capoeira, another does TKD and I do Judo). So do you have any advice with shooting your first fight scene?
