[edit] Untitled
I think "Yuen Biao" was the name either Jackie Chan or Sammo Hung used when they were together in the Seven Little Fortunes.
- No, "Yuen Biao" is the youngest of the Seven Little Fortunes.
[edit] One-handed karate
Is a mention of Spencer Tracy's Bad Day at Black Rock suitable?

[edit] Gordon Liu
I think something should be added in the timeline about Gordon Liu since his stardome rivals that of Jackie Chan in Hong Kong.
[edit] Trying to identify
Many years ago, I saw a film which was set on some kind of island with an evil priest and an Army. At the end of the film, the priest gave a speech that it was better to reign in hell than serve in heaven and then took a hero down to a prison cell, full of snakes. The hero's two friends were already dead in the cell. The hero was locked in with the snakes, but escaped, killed the guards, and captured the priest. He then takes the priest down to the cell, who is shouting "No! NO!" and locked him in with the snakes. The hero then leaves the island just as the priest screams, being bitten by the snakes. Its a long shot, but does anyone know the name of this film?
[edit] Lacks fundamental list
The article "Martial Arts film" lacks a fundamental list of martial arts films! This article mostly contains famous and important actors to this genre. There should be a list of examples and the most famous of martial arts films. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.173.240.220 (talk) 05:13, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Massive cruft
Vast numbers of "stars" have been added, and now removed, without refs or any apparent reason. There's no need for them to be here. --AndrewHowse (talk) 17:37, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Unnecessary hatnote?
Why does this article need a Martial arts (disambiguation) hatnote? Who would type "martial arts film" when they're looking for any of the other items in that dab page? --Vaughan Pratt (talk) 20:03, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
[edit] What makes a martial arts film notable?
I never even heard ofNever Back Down and it wasn't well-recieved by critics, so why is it on this list? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ElbowLick (talk • contribs) 03:30, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Regarding notable martial arts films
The list of notable martial arts films is in bad shape. The list clearly demonstrates recentism and a clear lack of standards regarding what is considered notable. We must be more aggressive at deleting items from the list and requiring citations and discussion if necessary for contentious items. I will give a few days for comments but I think the best way to proceed is to almost start over. I intend to chop the list down to a small "non-controversial" subset. I'm not sure if any of the films added after 2000 belong here. Jason Quinn (talk) 02:57, 24 July 2011 (UTC)
