What are your favorites?
Never been into them (no reason, just haven't). But recently discovered Chocolate and Ong Bak from Prachya Pinkaew, and loved 'em.
Recommendations for more? Seen all of the Segal, Van Damme stuff, but hoping to find stuff like the vids above. With more realistic fight scenes (meaning less special effects, etc.)

Donnie Yen vs. Sammo Hung

Anything with Donnie Yen in it is going to be decent. I am more into triad and yakuza movies myself.

Thanks, I'll check those out. Seems the foreign shit is so much better. Stuff in the states is so over produced, it's ridiculous.

Kuro Obi (Black Belt).
Beautiful story and cinematography. This is real karate with extremely high level black belts and not actors.
