What about "Undefeatable" which has the best fight scene EVER. Watch to the end if you can, but you'll see some sweet editing within the first 30 seconds. Don't worry, the grunting picks up later.

The film "Remo Williams the Adventure Begins" is based on a series of books called "The Destroyer" series. There are well over 100 books in the series!

Much like the Ian Flemming books about James Bond are less campy then the movies the Destroyer series of books is also much less campy.

Link for more info- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Destroyer

Here is a great film clip from Remo Williams-

LOL, I watched BTiLC yesterday, well at least part of it.

Crap, I'm gonna miss Remo. I am going to buy that on DVD. I have it recorded on VHS somewhere.

I loved Kim Cattrall before her slutty "Sex in the City" days.

Oh, and I'm a big Karate Kid fan. I heart Elizabeth Shue (I know you do too Twink)

"worked"

How could I forget Karate Kid? I love that movie. My friend recently tested for her green belt, and I called and left her many messages that day, singing "The Best Around."
