    Legendary Weapons of China (the final fight scene is amazing), 36th Chamber of Shaolin (hands down the best training scenes ever filmed and an overall great movie), The 5 Venoms (just super rad) are some of my top favorites. Pretty much anything from the Shaw Brothers Studio from the late 60’s through the 80’s is worth a watch. The Golden Harvest stuff is ok and there are some standouts but any of the other major HK Kung Fu Studios of the classic era don’t hold a candle to the Shaw Brothers quality. The Shaw’s had the best cameras, directors, sets, costumes and arguably actors / artists out there. You pretty much can’t go wrong with any Shaw movie with Shaolin in the title...

    The main thing I’ve learned after watching a ton of classic Kung Fu movies? Never trust a Manchu...

    Can’t believe nobody has mentioned any Sonny Chiba movies, he is a genius of Karate.

    The Street Fighter is a classic.

    I'll add some:

    The Perfect Weapon - Kenpo movie starring Jeff Speakman.

    Here Comes the Boom - Kevin James does MMA. Very funny.

    Never Back Down 3(?) - Michael Jai White. The scene where he demonstrates classic karate vs MMA is pretty cool.

    I love the Perfect Weapon!!! Although none of the kenpo practitioners I've known (and that's a lot) fight like that haha.

    "Everybody relax....I'm here."

    "Are you crazy? Is that your problem?"

    "Hey....you never know till you try!"

    One of the most quotable Kurt Russell films ever....
