have  you people seen some of the very spessial and beautifull Chinese movies (by various directors) when the fighters are all weightless and are dancing up in trees and fight on water and beneath the branches of the trees,

movies like Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Hero and Flying Daggers,

are their other movies with simmilar elements and epic scale to em, I love the movies (even though it seems kinda silly at first) but then you are captured by the magical choreography and amazing fight seens

also Zhang Ziyi is pretty

I�ve seen all three movies and they are beautiful. I know there are more like them out there, but I can�t help you as I haven�t seen them.

My favourite martial arts movie is Enter the Dragon. (Hong Kong is close enough to being China)

Not so much, it's a little more realistic (not that much, though :P)

cool, i got to see that,

what I like about those epic chinese movies, becouse they feal like the movies are build around the frames of classical music, (on the making of the movie, the director was saying that they had a goal which was for the music to be played  as traditional chinese music with the use of western classical instruemnts (symphonies) which is very facinating)

Okay, okay, but had any of you checked out the Wu-Tang movies? Or any other production from the Shaw Brothers?
I also recommend some King Hu's classics such as "A Touch of Zen" (1971) or "Come Drink With Me" (I confess prefering the French title: "The Golden Swallow").
