i want to go out and get some good scary asian films or action films, any ideas. here are some of the ones i've got already : kung fu hustle, audition, host, warrior king and obviously i know of the 'americanised' films such as ring, dark water, etc
Scary far eastern films ?
Try "Shutters" from Thailand. Kept me awake at night.
Reply:The original Ringu series, the Japanese versions, and the original Grudge are pretty good.
Kept my G/f awake for nights!!
Reply:the ring japanese version
Reply:Thrown of Blood -the Macbeth story told by Kirosawa. Brilliant.
Reply:Three great selections come to mind
Janghwa Hongryeon aka A Tale of Two Sisters is a great Korean horror film that I love that not many people have seen (thats cause it hasnt been remade)
http://imdb.com/title/tt0365376/
Also the movie Batoru rowaiaru aka "Battle Royale" is a good Japanese action/horror/thriller movie. I loved the book, and the movie is a very good adaptation. Not perfect but entertaining and easy to follow for the most part. But anything that involves having 42 Junior high kids kill each other for sport before their electronic collars blow their own head off is bound to be an entertaining fare.
http://imdb.com/title/tt0266308/
Also the Korean film "Oldboy" is great. Very Tarantino in quality. Pretty twisted, some bloody scenes. Overall very full of raw emotion and one heck of an experience from an asian film.
http://imdb.com/title/tt0364569/
Reply:I highly recommend "The Eye" - made about 2002/3, directed by the Pang brothers
don't watch it alone lol
Reply:OOOH, If you want a great action/martial arts movie, check out Ong Bak!!! It's a Thai martial arts movie staring Tony Jaa (bit of a legend in my eyes!).
It has some of the most amazing stunts and fight sequences ive seen since the likes of Jackie Chan and Bruce Li.
It has a story line like a porno...ie. Just enough storyline to tie all the action together ;-) but WHAT A MOVIE!!! 10/10!!!
Reply:Another few are Pulse which has an original Japanese version, Through The Mirror %26amp; Phone which are both Korean I think.
Also if you like Oldboy recommended above, there is also Sympathy For Mr Vengance %26amp; Lady Vengance to complete the trilogy!

Where in the Philippines can i buy The God of Cookery?
I love films starring Stephen Chow...It is action-packed and funny at the same time. Any more suggestions besides Shaolin Soccer, Kung fu Hustle, God of Gambler? Where can i buy God of Cookery (note:not the pirated ones)?

Can anyone recommend any mainstream foreign films?
I've really started to increasingly enjoy foreign films over the past year, and I was wondering if anyone could recommend any recent flicks that are relatively mainstream or straightforward in tone, rather than something extremely avant-garde/experimental with no coherent plot.
By mainstream/straightforward, I'm talking about stuff like "Good Bye Lenin", "Amelie" "Tae Guk Gai: The Brotherhood Of War", "Crimen Ferpecto", "Children Of Heaven", "Kung Fu Hustle", etc. that have understandable storylines, interesting characters, and perhaps quirky or funny situations.
The language doesn't matter, as I watch films from any country. It can be of any genre, although I'm not a big fan of horror movies.
country.
Can anyone recommend any mainstream foreign films?
- Life Is Beautiful (Italy) - one of my favourite films, for what it is worth, Roberto Bernigni - about an Italian Jewish man and his family in WWII, esp. how he looks after his little son - sad and wonderful story at the same time.
- Monsoon Wedding (India) - a film about a family gathering for an arranged wedding and the different characters and what is going on. I really liked this film too.
- Volver (Spain) - a bit different, but still an interesting film I think. Good cast too, including Penelope Cruz
Good question. Hope you find some more good films to see.
Reply:Two of my favourites are "Zatoichi" (a Japanese martial arts film about a blind swordsman) and "The Red Violin" (a French film that follows the life of a violin through five different countries).
Reply:In my french Class, we're watching these two french films called Jean De Florette and Manon of the Spring (Manon is the sequel to Jean.) They're a little old ('86) but they're really good and the plot is very easy to understand. It's also a little sad. But I think you might enjoy them, if you don't I'm sorry.

What is it?
In the game Tekken 5 Feng uses a Martial art called Godfist. And in the Movie Kung Fu Hustle the shop keep uses the same style. I whant to know what the name of that style is and what it branches from.
What is it?
Feng Wei's style is described as Chinese Kempo, although I am not sure if that helps at all. Chinese martial arts are very broad.
Perhaps if you know someone who can recognise moves, you could show them the game and ask them.
I've noted for instance that Kazuya and Baek share a couple of kicks (particularly the axe kick) but that's due to similarities between karate and tae kwon do.
Godfist is probably a dramatisation.
Reply:"Godfist" is a made up style for the sake of dramatization. However, the style attributed to him is Chinese Kempo. I doubt they studied enough martial arts to make the game realistic in style for each character.
Reply:What is it? It is fantasy. This section is for Martial Arts, go to video games.
Reply:Never believe what you see in the movies or on TV about martial arts...
Talk to your instructor!
Reply:That would be Hollywood kung fu.

As seen in Kung Fu Hustle and Master Killer. Please provide a link to the ring.
I saw them once in Chinatown, NYC but never bought them... maybe I can purchase online somewhere? I've tried ebay, google, but no luck!

Why america movie rating system often gave asia film rated R instead of PG 13?
Film like kung fu hustle, shaolin soccer, hero all got rated R, i don't think it derserve it, while violent and graphic film like LOTR and Perfect Storm still only get PG 13, what's your opinion.
Why america movie rating system often gave asia film rated R instead of PG 13?
The ratings board is notoriously screwy. They often rate movies in ways that are not consistent and don't make sense.

"The Black Mask" is a good Jet Li movie.
But you should really go to the source of ALL Martial Arts movies. You probably think I'm going to say Bruce Lee, and he was phenominal, but the fella I have in mind is, the one, the only,
Sonny Chiba. If you saw "Kill Bill, Part 2", Sonny Chiba was the swordsmith who swore a blood oath to never make another sword until Kiddo showed up and mentioned Bill's name. In the 60s and 70s, Chiba made a series of some of the grittiest Martial Arts movies ever filmed, "the Streetfighter" series, which include, "The Streetfighter", the Return of the Streetfighter" and "The Streetfighter's Last Revenge". Tarantino's character in "True Romance", the one played by Christian Slater, is going on and on at the beginning of THAT movie about Chiba.
"The Streetfighter" movies are Chinese productions, badly dubbed, but somehow fascinating nonetheless, maybe because the stunts are so godawful dangerous and they do the scene anyway, one take, winner takes all. I dont even want to think how many of the stunt fighters got killed or badly injured in some of the fights, (while other "action fights" are so obviously choreographed as to be completely distracting). All the icons (and, at this point, cliches, except THESE are where the cliches got their START) of the Oriental gangs. These movies are bloody, but I promise you, the series will make you look at Jet Li and Jackie Chan in a whole new light.

Dragon Ball Movie question?
Is there really a live action Dragon Ball movie in the works? I have been seeing several sites, each with different castings and release dates. So is there any truth to this movie?
And if such a movie is being created would it be original? Because the "Matrix" and "Kung Fu Hustle" already feature action similar to that of the DBZ series.
Dragon Ball Movie question?
attack of the show said some of the people casted for the live action movie how true it is i don't know
Reply:Yup. Twentieth Century Fox is behind the movie, and filming's already started in Canada.
It'll be original in the sense that it's a new Dragonball movie, but as far as the action goes, well, it'll probably be been-there-done-that.
Reply:it is in the works but for as how is the cast i dont know they are kinda keeping it secret i guess not all have been revealed it comes out about 15 auguest this year supposidly we will see wont we
Reply:Yes sir, there will be a DB movie (not the absence of a Z) It is scheduled to be released summer 2009 i think (May have to double check that). It will be made by the people who made Kung-fu hustle so that will be awesome and they have already cast Justin Chatwin (war of the worlds) as Goku, James Marsters (buffy the vampire slayer) as Piccolo, Emmy Rossum (Harry Potter) as Bulma, Jamie Chung (the real world) as Chi Chi, Chow Yun Fat (do I even have to say) as Master Roshi, and Joon Park (unknown) as Yamcha. I have mixed feelings about the cast except piccolo because I think James Marsters will be awesome as him.

What are films that used music and dancing in an unexpected delightful way?
Spike Lee having Rosie Perez dancing to Public Enemy's song "Fight The Power" in opening scene of the film "Do The Right Thing" was perfect, also the dancing at the end and music bits slipped throughout "Zatoichi: The Blind Swordsman" suprised me.
"Kung Fu Hustle" also was clever with the dancing it put inside it.
Do you know of any films that put music or dancing into a film that was not a musical that really worked for you ?

Footloose was great - I really loved the credits at the beginning where they had all those legs with different shoes and crazy socks and stuff tapping and dancing to the music.
Reply:i thought the part in "shaun of the dead" when theyre beating up the zombie with pool cues to Queen was pretty awesome.
Reply:My Best Friend's Wedding.
In the resteraunt where they all sing that Dionne Warwick song and everybody joins in. And when they're in that karoake club and Cameron Diaz has to sing and she sounds terrible but belts out the whole song.
The soundtrack is one of my faves too.

I`m a fan of Asian comedies, especially Chinese. Please tell me some movies similar to Kung-Fu Hustle, Shaolin Soccer (this is the best comedy ever in the world), Kung-Pow:Enter the Fist.

What should replace karate-type styles in public imagination?
I never bought the choreographed nonsense in the movies about the striking styles of kung fu, karate, tae kwon do etc. I knew they were developed as a way for unarmed people to fight opponents weighed down by armor. After MMA fights became popular, and these striking, high-kicking styles always lost, I figured people would wise up. Instead there's even more absurdly choreographed movies (like Kill Bill, Kung Fu Hustle, Jet Li movies), worsening the public fantasy about the usefulness of these styles.
A style that people actually win with in free fights ought to be promoted to dispel the myth. What should it be - what is the most effective free-fight style, that can also capture people's imagination the way karate did?
What should replace karate-type styles in public imagination?
i think a combo of boxing and wrestling is great if the guy is big but not to slow and a strong puncher and i agree with you that stuff is lame and is usaully unsuccesful in fights
Reply:"After MMA fights became popular, and these striking, high-kicking styles always lost..."
Mirko Cro-Cop has been very successful with a striking, high-kicking style(coupled with a good take-down defense).
Don't judge the effectiveness of a style by how it is portrayed in the movies. With a few exceptions, fight choreography for movies has always been exaggerated and ridiculous.
Due to MMA, people are beginning to see that Muy Thai is a truly effective stand-up style and that BJJ is most effective for grappling. I think these two styles will dominate in MMA and also for self-defence. And we could see in movies and TV action heroes who employ Muy Thai and BJJ skills.
Reply:they look good though and the movies are all about entertainment. i am a bjj guy but even ill admit that fighters like wanderlie, liddell,crocop, Anderson Silva, gsp, shogun are the most popular fighter because they kick peoples teeth down there throat , its more exciting for the general public to see rampage vs Silva kick **** out of each over then renzo Gracie vs Carlos newton giving a grappling clinic, its just the way it is
but we no that bjj rules so thats ok
Reply:I'm afraid it will never get better. There will always be choreographed MA movies. But not because the moves won't work in real life but for the safety of the actors/stuntmen. Yes there are a lot of movies that use fake choreographics and even after being in karate for ten years, I would prefer a gun over my hands/feet. But in the times that we are living in, you got to think. " What if I don't have my gun on me when I need to defend myself?".
Oh and by the way, I don't know about Kill Bill and Kung Fu hustle but I do know that Jet Li is an Awesome martial artist, like Jackie Chan and Stephen Seagal. Their stuff really works. I know, I've studied and practice it.
Reply:Kill Bill and Kung Fu Hustle are SUPPOSED to be ridiculous. Kill Bill is all about paying homage to those crazy MA movies, and Kung Fu Hustle is the same. Plus, they were both comedies. It's like saying that Looney Tunes provide a negative stereotype of the use of anvils and dynamite.
Jet Li movies are a different species altogether. He and his choreographers know what people want to see when they watch a MA movie, and they give it to them. It's all about business.
Reply:Jet Li did wushu, which more of a dance, not kung fu. Kung fu refers to Chinese Martial arts in general, with some styles being more effective than others. Also, karate and tae kwon do are more like sports true combat arts, but they are just easier to learn for little kids, as opposed to BJJ or Muay Thai. Little kids are also intrigued by watching flashy displays of breaking boards in karate and tae kwon do, even though it doesn't have anything to do with fighting ability.
Reply:Real self-defense encounters are ugly things. They are fast, dirty, sloppy, violent encounters.
Movies are made for entertainment. The crowd wants to see the good guy beautifully destroy the bad guy. Then the hero runs into a little bit of trouble and overcomes the adversity to save the situation and win the admiration of the people.
Real life doesn't go down like this which is why we enjoy it as escapism.
Also in real life people don't go on extended missions where by they fight evil for an hour with nothing but there fisticuffs skills.
Art is art. Real life is another matter.

Can you recommend any good Kung Fu movies?
Does anyone know if there will be a Kung Fu Hustle 2?
Can you recommend any good Kung Fu movies?
For excellent Wu Shu try the Once Upon A Time In China series of films ,especially the ones with Jet Li (Li Lin-jie) as Wong Fei-hung ,or Jet`s remake of the Bruce Lee film Fist Of Fury called Fist Of Legend and my personal likes The Legend Of Fong Sai-yuk (simply known as The Legend in the US) parts I %26amp; II - even if the latter aren`t brilliant examples of acting excellence they are very entertaining examples of the genre (especially the fight sequence choreography) .
Or for just sheer fun try the early Jackie Chan classics The Young Master ,Snake In The Eagle`s Shadow , Drunken Master (a particular fave of mine) and his version of Fist Of Fury which he was in as a stunt fighter (New Fist Of Fury).
If you like Sammo Hung (Hung kam-bo) who did some of the fight choreography for Kung Fu Hustle - he fought Bruce Lee at the start of Enter The Dragon ,there`s his "Bruce tribute" Enter The Fat Dragon ,The Magnificent Butcher (a Wong Fei-hung film) ,his appearance AS Wong Fei-hung in Around The World In 80 Days (feat. Jackie Chan LOL) and the "Lucky stars" films with his "little brothers" Jackie Chan and Yuen Biao or the Vietnam film Eastern Condors.
To name several LOL
Reply:All Jackie Chan movies the old ones are the best.
Does all his own stunts

Reply:Watch "Enter the Dragon", then watch "Kentucky Fried Movie". In "KFM" there is a movie within the movie. It is called "A Fistful of Yen" and it makes fun of "Enter the Dragon". VERY FUNNY!
Also, "KFM" was the first parody movie made. You have to be at least 40 to really understand many of the mock tv commercials and jokes....but it's a good movie even for those under 40. Lots of crude humor and nudity. Not for little kids.

Reply:If you liked Kung Fu Hustle, you might like Shaolin Soccer. It is also a hilarious movie. You will like "Kung Pow" it is extremely hilarious, with fake mouth moving delay and a character called, "tonguey"...don't ask.
Reply:I was going to say Kung Fu Hustle. I loooooovvvve that movie and I've often wondered if they were going to come out with another one, but I haven't heard anything. anyway, the protector is an excellent movie. and anything with jet li is good. fearless, romeo must die, kiss of the dragon, black mask. but definitely watch the protector if you haven't already seen it. crazy stuff. hope this helps.

Reply:Drunken Master
Can you recommend any good Kung Fu movies?
For excellent Wu Shu try the Once Upon A Time In China series of films ,especially the ones with Jet Li (Li Lin-jie) as Wong Fei-hung ,or Jet`s remake of the Bruce Lee film Fist Of Fury called Fist Of Legend and my personal likes The Legend Of Fong Sai-yuk (simply known as The Legend in the US) parts I %26amp; II - even if the latter aren`t brilliant examples of acting excellence they are very entertaining examples of the genre (especially the fight sequence choreography) .
Or for just sheer fun try the early Jackie Chan classics The Young Master ,Snake In The Eagle`s Shadow , Drunken Master (a particular fave of mine) and his version of Fist Of Fury which he was in as a stunt fighter (New Fist Of Fury).
If you like Sammo Hung (Hung kam-bo) who did some of the fight choreography for Kung Fu Hustle - he fought Bruce Lee at the start of Enter The Dragon ,there`s his "Bruce tribute" Enter The Fat Dragon ,The Magnificent Butcher (a Wong Fei-hung film) ,his appearance AS Wong Fei-hung in Around The World In 80 Days (feat. Jackie Chan LOL) and the "Lucky stars" films with his "little brothers" Jackie Chan and Yuen Biao or the Vietnam film Eastern Condors.
To name several LOL
Reply:All Jackie Chan movies the old ones are the best.
Does all his own stunts

Recommend a good Kung-fu movie?
I recently watched Kung-fu Hustle - and would like to watch more movies in that genre. I rented a couple that were recommended on a DVD site - but they weren't as good? Anyone know of good ones?

Enter the Dragon is probably the best martial arts movie ever made, in my opinion.

What age and up do you reccomend the movie kung fu hustle?
I would say PG-13.. funny violence.. pretty much all there is to it.. nudity is normally what pushes movies into R .. but I dont remember any
I recommend Shaolin Soccer too.. just as funny
What age and up do you reccomend the movie kung fu hustle?
41 and yes I would recommend this movie. Be prepared to read subtitles but very funny.
Reply:reccomend? don't make fun of my spelling when you can't even spell for yourself!!!
Reply:I have seen this movie twice and like it a lot.
It is more of a parody of martial arts films. It is in Chinese, but there are subtitles.
It is not for little kids. It is rated R. I think I would feel comfortable letting 13 year olds and up watch it. There really wasn't that much violence. No gore. People got killed, but it was more of a cartoon violence. There is no female nudity that I can recall at all. It did show a guy's butt--that is all.

What are the fighting styles represented in Kung Fu Hustle?
The baker who fights with sticks and spears - Hunggar
The tailor who fights with iron rings - Hunggar
The mover who kicks a lot of people in the face - Spring Legs
The crazy land lady - Tibetan White Crane
The perverted landlord - Taichi
The axe clan - no style, just brutes.
The two assassins - Eagle Claw? plus a lot of CGI.
Crazy killer guy - initially no style, just super fast CGI. Later Toad kungfu does exist in Shaolin.
Main character - Buddha's Palm, a fictional martial art popularized by Wuxia culture. Many of his actual moves are signature Taichi, but could be from many other styles.

The axe clan - no style, just brutes.
The two assassins - Eagle Claw? plus a lot of CGI.
Crazy killer guy - initially no style, just super fast CGI. Later Toad kungfu does exist in Shaolin.
Main character - Buddha's Palm, a fictional martial art popularized by Wuxia culture. Many of his actual moves are signature Taichi, but could be from many other styles.
What are the fighting styles represented in Kung Fu Hustle?
Kung fu?!?!
Reply:Lion's Roar, Buddhist Palm, and God knows what else. Just watch it again and see what they say.

I am looking to find the romantic score between Sing and the ice cream girl from the movie. I love the score but am not sure what its title is. Would be great if I can know where to download it from too.

If you go to the link below, you can scroll down and see the list of songs from the movie. You can then sample the songs to find the one you have in mind.
After you know the name, you can download it from www.limewire.com. I just checked LimeWire and saw a bunch of the movie's songs there. I hope this helps.

Does Anyone Else Here Like Kung-Fu Hustle?
I thought it was one of the best martial arts movies to come out in recent years. It was horribly marketed though, the trailers made it look stupid but it wasn't at all.

That scene with the throwing knives and the snake had me rolling on the floor : P
Reply:I loved it. It wasn't the best to me but it was great.
Reply:I like kung fu movies and I can honestly say it was a good film. It was still a stupid film, enjoyable but stupid.
Reply:i enjoyed it from start to finish. that's what movies are supposed to. leave the docu-films and artsy films to TV.
Reply:It was en enjoyable movie.
Kinda silly, but entertaining.
Reply:I personally don't like many "martial arts" movies as they are generally poorly scripted, poorly produced, poorly acted, and do little to expand knowledge or understanding of the real talents of the artists involved.
I did however really enjoy Kung Fu Hustle. it was funny, tongue in cheek, different and yet paid homage to the typical martial arts movies at the same time. I must also confess, I don't like musicals - but KFH really entertained me and I've been happy to watch it about four or five times now since it came out.
