    I just watched Ninja in the Dragon's Den and i would love to see more stuff like this in terms of a culture clash between Far Eastern cultures. I know there are many lists out there but there are so many Shaw Brothers movies out there with little imdb presence.

    The obvious one is Fist of Fury/Fist of Legend. Also Fearless.

    Street Fighter. It's an incredibly accurate portrayal of the dynamics between Eastern dictator warlords, gun runners, and power brokers, all of whom are trained in martial arts.

    Jesus, watch IP Man. Best martial arts choreography I have ever seen. The sequel is not as good.

    I was never a big Jackie Chan guy. I don't know, he just does not click with me.

    Not even in Drunken Master? You're dead to me, person who predominantly peruses sections of the boards I don't frequent. Dead.
