Not a fan.

Frank Dux is to martial arts what the $3.00 bill is to US currency.

Its been proven multiple times that his autobiography is 100% BS. I don't mean there were a few erros, I mean total 100% BS.

Too many great real martial arts stories out there that have come along in the last 30years to rehash old fiction like this.

All of y'all talking crap about real life Frank Dux sound like a bunch of dorks.

"Frank Dux is a liar! He's no real ass kicker!"

Okay, dorks… hey, did y'all know Chewbacca isn't really a dog man, he's just a man dressed like a dog.

Haha, "but is all fake!" You friggin' nerds…

Huge difference, between fake martial arts and Frank Dux. Dux is a lot worse.

Frank Dux claimed to be a Marine, in the CIA and a bunch of other stuff. He book wasn't just about fighting or martial arts. A lot of stolen valor in addition to the claims of badassery that he didn't do.

Can we just get to the part of the thread where we find out the remake is casting a black trans woman as Frank Dux and it's not a kumate but a drag show and TCCTS comes in and denies that this is in any way strange and no indication of Hollywood leaning woke and then that Gallo Blanco guy says his very conservative mother is going to hate it and then whatever name Porkchop is using these days reads too much into someone's post and quits TA?

BTW, have I ever randomly mentioned that my 16 yr old son can bench 260 lbs and is a total stud?

I always thought that squirrelly Inspector Clouseau looking dude who was obsessed with knee thrusts would have been a nightmare to fight.
Now you made me think of that bad ass Cato from Pink Panther movies, keeping inspector sharpened like a tack!

Don't know how I missed this thread, but Clouseau is the most underrated martial artist worthy of any crouching tiger and hidden dragon. He would dominate the bloodsport

Well I don't normally come out and admit that I've watched this movie more than once. It just doesn't come out in everyday conversation; it's cheesy as ****. And don't even get me started on that Bruce Lee bit coming to train him.

Back to the OP...

Chong Li is the only villain that I can think of that had like 4 or 5 lines in the whole movie. The interesting thing about him is that he's like 5'5" or something like that.
