          Watched every Bruce Lee movie excluding Game of Death because it has his corpse in one shot [and is just grave-robbing for money].
          DRAGON THE BRUCE LEE STORY looks good.

            Most awesome action movie weapon is the nunchuck. I win the argument, mainly because nobody is going to reply to this.

              Watching Sammo Hung as the protagonist in 'Enter the Fat Dragon' (Mang Hoi and Yuen Biao are thugs in a fight scene..) . This is probably the best screenshot I could take and possibly the only one until I see some funnier ones..

One big cinema had a lot of these prints and when the owner died his son-in-law took over. That guy formed a video label called Global and he started to put out a lot of these rare films on DVD.
                    Crude cinema prints were used for the DVD's without any form of restoration but at least it means you can get to see these rare films.

                    Anyhoo, to make a long story short the Global guy had a print of THE BIG BOSS PART 2 but didn't wish to release it (despite heaps of fans bugging him about it) and in the end he sold the print to a cinema in Zambia. I don't have the name nor location of said cinema.

                    Film has finally been released on Bluray 1080p HD by Severin Films for their 'Game of Clones' boxset.

                      I watched Wong Jing's City Hunter starring Jackie Chan 2 weeks ago. It was art.

                      Then I went on to read the manga - a posterior on the first page. Will save that one for when I'm older
                      Then I wanted to watch the TV show - breasts 5 minutes in. Will save that one for when I'm older
                      THEN I decided to watch the anime movies - so far, so good.

                      I've never got into anime and manga, so this will be cool.

                      I feel I am the only one in Sydney who has heard of City Hunter though.

                        After the disappointment of Morbius last week we decided to watch something from my DVD collection: Stargate. Such a great film, she had never seen it before. I really like the TV shows spawned from it as well, have all the DVDs for those.

                          I watched Down Periscope (1996) last night. One of my coworkers really likes it, so I gave it a try. It's a really dumb comedy, but I found myself laughing a lot more than I thought I would. I'm a sucker for submarine stuff - I've read half a dozen of the Bantam War Books stories on U-boats and other diesel submarines - so that helped. Coincidentally, I had been on board the very submarine used in the film (it's a floating museum in San Francisco) way before I knew it was featured in this movie.

                              My favorite Submarine movie is Run Silent, Run Deep. I never get tired of watching that one every now and again.

                                I am of course partial to The Enemy Below

                                https://stephers.lazytown.eu/ch/anim/heiney.htm

                                For some reason the timings were off when I tried watching that, had to Ctrl-F5 to reload the page and start over and then it timed perfectly.


                                I used to read submarine books like Run Silent Run Deep and Dust on the Sea, as well as supernatural ones like Ghostboat. Speaking of which, there's a good supernatural sub movie called Below. Have that one on DVD. Also have Das Boot, read the book for that one too though it's a bit long.
