Hey guys you gotta love this stuff. Donnie Yen is one of the most amazing Martial Arts actors around. They meaning Hollywood needs to make room for him. Anyway here’s a teaser for the sequel of one of his best films. If you haven’t seen the original Ip Man, shame on you.And FYI, Ip Man is the teacher of the legendary  Bruce Lee.

This is why I love these over the top Kung Fu movies. We have our heroes over here in the U.S. And they east has theirs. Nothings better than making a film about an old folk hero and making him into a super hero. To a real martial arts fan this film is a must see. True Legend is directed by Yuen Woo Ping. Staring Vincent Zhao, and Michelle Yeoh.

To tell the truth there has never been an American kung fu film that made you think it was a great kung fu flick. Not that Americans don’t make goo movies. It’s just that we really don’t get what it takes to make a great kung fu film. Chuck Norris, Steven Segal, Van Damm. Well, there just not “eastern” enough. This movie, Ninja Assassin makes me proud to have waited for an American made film to finally get it. The Wachowshi’s and there protege James McTeigue have done something that has NEVER been done before. Make a awesome nina movie. Look for it in two weeks in theater. November 25.

The legend of Ong Bak 3 begins after Tien (Tony Jaa) has lost his fighting skills and his beloved step-father at the Garuda’s Wing cliff from the raid led by Jom Rachan (Saranyu Wonggrajang).  Tien is brought back to life with the help from Pim (Primrata Dechudom) as well as Mhen (Petchai Wongkamlao) and the Kana Khone villagers.  Deep into the meditation taught by Phra Bua (Nirutti Sirijanya), Tien finally is able to achieve ‘Nathayut’.  His talents are put to the test again when his rivals including the Golden-Armored King’s Guard (Supakorn ‘Tok’ Kijusuwan), the mysterious killers in black, and Bhuti Sangkha (Dan Chupong) return for the final massive showdown.
