Setsuna Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 A ton of the Chan/Sammo/Biao fight scenes from the 80s would fit here but which movie was the scene were Sammo took out a bunch of guys in a warehouse with a pole? I remember the movie being fairly sparse on action, but that 60 second scene or however long it was, was amazing. I searched youtube but couldn't find it and now it's driving me crazy. Edit : Found it : Owl vs. Bumbo Didn't see the subtitled version, and not as much as a beatdown as I remembered. Still, perfect example of what made Sammo's 80s HK flix so fun; long cuts, great camera angles/choreo and stuntman willing to die for our pleasure. You can get maybe one of the above in modern action flix but never all of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingus Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Or unless they're, y'know, more physically capable than you. I don't see how it's "embarrassing" for an old guy with a gunshot wound and a badly broken arm to get beaten up by three professional stunt performers in good health who are half his age.

Curt McGirt Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 *sigh* All of us have been beaten up by women enough (in more ways than the physical) that there's no need for any sexist grudge -- just respect, and love. Get your heads correct. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.H. Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 There are 2 GREAT beatdowns in Miller's Crossing (sadly I can't find clips). First after Tommy gets taken by Caspar's goons and Caspar and the Dane leave him alone in the room with Frankie to get roughed up. Tommy tells him to wait and the decks him with the chair. Frankie looks genuinely upset tha Tommy did that so he go gets Tic-Tac and Tic-Tac proceeds to savagely beat the crap out of him. Second after Tommy confesses to Leo about his sneaking around with Verna behind Leo's back. Tommy leaves the room and is on his way out of the club when Leo comes out of hi office and beats Tommy's down the stairs all the way to the dining room. Jesus Gabriel Byrne got his ass kicked a lot in Miller's crossing James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
