Member BaronK Posted August 28, 2010 Member Share Posted August 28, 2010 Much like these 2 and the Adam Cheung/Andy Lau one from his thread, I remember 2 others as well. One had Leung Kar Yan and a ton of people. He did a live set with another guy with a horse leg cutter and others did demo sets as well. Then there was one with my man Tong Gaai and even Kuo Chui in there as well. Spears were involved. Those live performances were always impressive. Like the Eastern Condors one. Maybe, someone has them and can bring them back to life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member peringaten Posted August 28, 2010 Member Share Posted August 28, 2010 Oh yeah, would love to see the Tong Gaai one again - that's the one on like an awards show-looking stage in front of a big audience, right? IIRC Tong Gaai gets hit in the leg or catches his weapon on another's leg or something similar... some sort of unavoidable mishap, but he styles it alright, carries on unfazed. What happened to that vid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Morgoth Bauglir Posted August 28, 2010 Member Share Posted August 28, 2010 I agree! The man is ridiculously fast. There's a video Franky posted on youtube (I don't know if it's still up) that showed him around the year 2005 and he's still so fast that it's a blur onscreen!

Member peringaten Posted August 28, 2010 Member Share Posted August 28, 2010 Last footage I saw of LKL was from the very end of 2008 doing a private forms demo. He absolutely canes it, speed, power, snap, etc. mind-blowing. Untouchable. Wish I could share it, alas it's not my footage to share. He recently had a lung infection over Chinese new year and was in hospital, so I don't know how fighting fit he is at the mo, but the guy's hard as nails. Still putting everyone else to shame!

Member Morgoth Bauglir Posted August 30, 2010 Member Share Posted August 30, 2010 True, not anybody around these days doing movies, or even in the past that show the combo of amazing speed, power and perfect technique that Lau shows. Now that I think about it the video that Franke posted may have been around the year 2007, I can’t remember for sure. I just have an image in my head of him doing some outrageously fast stuff for a man his age. Is the video you have outdoors? I remember it had a song playing and I had to press mute it didn’t fit the video. Hopefully he makes a comeback, maybe not directing or choreographing but at least an appearance onscreen to show off his skills again before he is too old.

No the video I have is filmed indoors with him doing a private forms demo for one of his students & his disciples; I wouldn't want to presume I could make it public. Given time... Is the vid you're thinking of taken from the time of this footage? LKL from 10 secs in: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member kungfusamurai Posted September 29, 2010 Member Share Posted September 29, 2010 Thank you for that Hsiao Hou and Kara Hui video. That kind of reminds me of the play at the beginning of Mad Monkey Kung Fu. KFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member peringaten Posted October 5, 2010 Member Share Posted October 5, 2010 Yeah. Glad to see that dug out again. Cheers! Some pressure on that kid. That's Ching Chu next to Hsiao Hou... be interested to know more on that guy, CC, get the impression he did quite a bit behind the scenes stuff with LKL; would love to know his martial background.

Member The Amazing Psycho Per Posted October 6, 2010 Member Share Posted October 6, 2010 Can't believe I hadn't seen this thread before... Some awesome vids with the Pops. Thanks! True, not anybody around these days doing movies, or even in the past that show the combo of amazing speed, power and perfect technique that Lau shows. So true... I would go as far as to say nobody. LKL was the shapes king on screen. I don't think any other actor ever performed with as much precision, strenght and fluidity in kung fu movie history. He was it. Too bad he didn't allow himself more screen time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member irongut Posted October 6, 2010 Author Member Share Posted October 6, 2010 That is one hell of an interview! I was actually nervous for the kid when he was doing his gung li chuan routine. Not bad, & only 17 at the time I think. No pressure. No pressure at all. The Cap'n digs it out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jn_eXwYLZMk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member MarsHarmony Posted February 19, 2011 Member Share Posted February 19, 2011 It's heartbreaking that the "Shaw Bros. studio demo on TVB" video has been removed. This is a very sad thing. But thanks again to rdenn for posting it, and I was lucky to see it several times before it was taken down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Nakadai Posted February 28, 2011 Member Share Posted February 28, 2011 here you go , adam cheng had been cut out of this footage hopefully this will turn up one day in mint qual, peringaten i will have a look for that other lau kar footage. qrVJ1WKa6PM I really wish TVB didn't go after every little TVB property so aggressively on youtube.

Member BaronK Posted March 1, 2011 Member Share Posted March 1, 2011 Yes, i do find that extremely weird. Is it their material? Yes. But it's a friggin tv segment from '83. Unless they are selling a best of '83 tv segment dvd package, I don't get the dick moves over material most people on the entire planet didn't even know existed, to this very day.

Member Nakadai Posted March 1, 2011 Member Share Posted March 1, 2011 If only more of their older series had English subs, or even non VCD releases. Shoot i'd buy the hypothetical best of promo disc without them. But it would have to include Adam Cheng. Poor Adam, always getting the short end of the stick. I want some Chor Lau-heung damn it.
