Do they have to be films? I personally really enjoyed the latest Legend of Condor Heroes series (2003 I think?)

If you liked those 2 then you should also like Red Cliff (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Cliff_(film)).

One of the best films i`d seen for quite some time.

[Frogs Hair]

Hero with Jet Li

I love those tv series and I watched several of them like:

Twin of brothers
heavenly sword and dragon saber
legend of arching hero
return of condor hero
tian long babu

These are brilliant.

Before I read your post, I thought of Crouching Tiger. Then I read your post. :)

Kung Fu Hustle. :)

I was about to suggest the Kill Bill movies. They're pretty nasty and violent, but they're also pretty awesome.

I hear that they're going to make a 3rd one sometime.

You've seen more than me then! Louis Cha (Jin Yong) could certainly spin good stories.

Have you tried the more modern movies like Dragon Tiger Gate and the Wind and Cloud series' ? Probably not as good, but same kind of stuff.

Nice!



According to Bloody-Disgusting.com, details have emerged about Kill Bill Volumes 3 and 4. According to the article, "Bennett Walsh said at the Shanghai International Film Festival the third film involves the revenge of two killers whose arms and eyes were hacked by Uma Thurman in the first stories," which suggest Sofie and Elle, respectively. The article adds that the "fourth installment of the popular kung fu action films concerns a cycle of reprisals and daughters who avenge their mother's deaths" (Wikipedia).

naming some:

- Requiem for a dream
- der freie wille
- One flew over the cuckoo's nest
- Night on earth

hope you like 'em, they are not made to earn the most money they are made to be good films, and btw "der freie wille" might be too intense for someone to watch(dont watch it with your kids).

I don't know about the rest, but how is "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" anything like House of Flying Daggers? :)

[Task Force 42]

ip man is da bomb,

[Smart Viking]

but how is "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" anything like House of Flying Daggers? :)

I haven't watched either of the movies you listed, i just names some movies i like, i am sorry if that bothers you... :)

EDIT: After a little research i find out that i actually have seen "House of Flying Daggers", sorry 'bout that, i watch a lot of movies.

[Spr0k3t]

I'm shocked to see a few films not mentioned already.

Anime: ANYTHING directed by Hayao Miyazaki.
3x3 Eyes
Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within

Live Action:
Shichinin no Samurai (Seven Samurai)
Iron Monkey
Enter the Dragon
The Legend of the Drunken Master (both versions are good)
The Forbidden Kingdom

There are several that I'm not going to list... just look into some good kung-fu theater stuff and you'll find quite a few.

[NightwishFan]

anything directed by hayao miyazaki.

+∞ :)

[JBAlaska]

I never have really gotten into Anime, but you all must see:
Cat S**t One

Replace the ** with hi.

[Khakilang]

I would suggest as below.

1. The Three Kingdom - Starring Lau Tuck Wah and Samuel Hong
2. Mummy Return - Starring Brandon Frasier, Michelle Yeoh and Jet Li
3. Forbidden Kingdom - Starring Jacky Chan and Jet Li
4. Ip Man 1 and 2 - Starring Donny Yuen

Hi,

- house of flying daggers
- crouching tiger hidden dragon


Thanks.

I'd recommend following ,

Hero
Fearless
Warlords
The Forbidden Kingdom
Red Cliff

[DeadlyAlex0]

Fearless is a pretty good film.
Some others:The warrior,Ninja Assassin and IP Man.

[eriktheblu]

The Duel (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0243876/) is probably my favorite wuxia film.

Also look for Dragon Gate Inn (or it's remake), the Bride with White Hair, The New Legend of Shaolin (AKA Legend of the Red Dragon), and the Swordsman.

For a more humorous selection, Shaolin Soccer, Kung-Fu Hustle, and Kung-Pow, Enter the Fist.

Lol. It doesn't bother me. It's just that in the original post, legolas_w was asking for movies that are similar to House of Flying Daggers.

I've seen One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest, and I thought it was a great movie. ;)

[BigSilly]

Prodigal Son is probably my favourite martial arts film ever, and I would definitely recommend it. It's just great fun!

[ticopelp]

Shichinin no Samurai (Seven Samurai)
Iron Monkey
Enter the Dragon
The Legend of the Drunken Master (both versions are good)

Very much agreed :D

[legolas_w]

Thank you all for suggesting these movies.

I watched Curse of the Golden Flower and it was an amazing movie.

I will watch more of the suggested movies.
