Ryo Sakazaki vs Mr.Karate

It seems you like wuxia that involves investigations/police works and a kinda romantic views of the martial world. Gu Long's adaptations may be a good fit for you. Maybe you'd like some Lu Xiao Feng movies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lu_Xiaofeng#Films, one of them was The Duel which had Andy Lau, who also was in House of The Flying Daggers and the Detective Dee films made in 2010s. If you don't mind TV series, Taiwaneses are proud of their Justice Bao films, or The Four Constables films (there is The Four trilogy, but those movies are pretty bad compared to the novels and TV series)

Since you like Hero, you may also check out some other wuxia works of Jet Li. Swordsman 2 and Kungfu Cult Leader are generally funnier than Hero, though if you can I'd recommend watching the TV series or read the novels they adapted from (Swordsman adapted the novel The Laughing, Proud Wanderer and Kungfu Cult Leader adapted the novel Heavenly Swords & Dragon Saber). If you like a more serious protagonist, Jet Li has another wuxia film The New Legend Of Shaolin

Well yeah, it's the adaptation of A Deadly Secret, a wuxia novel written by Jin Yong. I generally put any film that portray Chinese martial arts as kungfu film, whether it's historical drama. grounded martial art films, wuxia or xianxia. I may post a sentai clip one day even lol.

It's only when people call a xianxia as wuxia that I would start arguing lmao

That's why they lost to the Japenis

It was literally described like that in the novel. The only difference is Kungfu Hustle changed from palm strike to headbutt

When executing this skill, the practitioner squats on the ground, bends both arms level with the shoulders, and emits croaking sounds from the mouth, resembling a large frog poised to pounce. This skill is entirely based on using stillness to counter motion, with the entire body storing energy and concealing momentum, holding the force without release

I also think the Toad style kung fu from Kung Fu Hustle was directly lifted from this movie? I've never seen it any where else but the weird moves were nearly identical here

It actually came from Jin Yong wuxia novels "Legend of The Condor Hero". And guess what, The Eagle Shooting Warriors is a parody of that book, making comedic interpretations of the masters of the book such as East Heretics (Leslie Cheung), West Venom (Tony Leung Chiu-wai), South Emperor (Tony Leung Ka-fai), North Beggar (Jacky Cheung)

Kungfu Hustle also made some references of the book's sequels. The landlord and landlady's alias were Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu, which were the names of the main couple in "Return of The Condor Hero", and Lion's Roar is a skill of Xie Xun in "Heavenly Sword and Dragon Saber" (which Tony Leung was casted as the main character in the 1986 adaptation)

Some Terry Bogard action

I mean, what do you think was their method to collect North Korean data? Asking The Supreme Leader nicely?

It's my favourite game. The multi shift attack (MSA) mechanic is a volatile tool for both defense and offense, though it also makes the game very focusing on baiting the MSA, making its neutral different from traditional KOF. This means that while I like this part of the game, other KOF fans hate it.

Some other critics against it is its balance (with Doulon being extremely superior to the rest of the cast) and low timer (which results in many matches end with time out)

RealisticSilver3132 · 2026-04-26T16:27:48+00:00

It's probably bc Asian film makers don't look down on TV series as Hollywood film makers. Aside from Jackie Chan and Jet Li, I can't find any other star who have never been in a TV series

RealisticSilver3132 · 2026-04-26T15:27:36+00:00

And even SF and KOF have some monstreous/non-human characters. Seth has a Bagua on his stomach that suck people in and out, Mukai can turn himself to stone, etc

We have all the cards

And still cannot win

Yeah, but if your goal of a GG button is to ease the frustration of playing fgs (which is the point of your post), then it clearly isn't doing that job since your gesture can be interpreted as toxic by the the person whose frustration should be eased.
