"I've got to agree with Seth on the Jackie Chan/Lau Kar Leung fight from Drunken Master 2. That fight is off the hook. But I guess you can't have them all, or it wouldn't be a list of the top ten."

The good thing is, it's not a top ten, just a "great ten" so there's no harm in me adding that excellent fight into my next round.

"It's too bad so many westerners only know him from the "Rush Hour" and "Shanghai" movies."

Imagine being me, finally getting to meet and interview Jackie and it's in support of The Tuxedo. It's the last thing I wanted to ask him about…

Excellent list. I've got to agree with Seth on the Jackie Chan/Lau Kar Leung fight from Drunken Master 2. That fight is off the hook. But I guess you can't have them all, or it wouldn't be a list of the top ten. Props on the Pedicab clip, though. That's one of my favorites of all time. Lau Kar Leung is the man.

Great list!
I second what a few others have been noting: thanks for reminding me how awesome Jackie Chan used to be.

"By the way, has the gent who portrayed Ricki been in anything else worth noting? I can't remember his name off hand."

Fan Siu-Wong. I can't think of anything really notable.

Iron Monkey is on the short list for the sequel… if you're a fan of the film check out the interview I did with Donnie in support of the American release.

Excellent work! Truly brilliant! But don't forget some of the great fight scenes from "Iron Monkey". Staring Donnie Yen.

Yeah, I think I know the woman/man of which you refer: one of the prison guards from the ones that Ricki is not in, the guy/girl that gets raged when the opium greenhouses get destroyed. She was fantastic. By the way, has the gent who portrayed Ricki been in anything else worth noting? I can't remember his name off hand.

(waiting patiently for the sequel to the sweet list)

There are a lot of folks out there that dig that film. It's one of those movies that crosses genre and boudnaries pretty well so you see martial arts movie fans, fans of the orignal manga, fans of gore and splatter films, fans of camp and fans of pretty much everything in-between who have seen it and enjoyed it.

Yukari Oshima plays man in that film, btw. Maybe a scene with her playing a woman would be a good addition to the sequel (goes off to search youtube for Yukari Oshima)
