Member GOLDEN DRAGON YIN-YANG Posted December 22, 2014 Member Share Posted December 22, 2014 Whose swordplay movies do you find you like the most. I realize each has something to offer. 1. Shaw Brothers 2. Golden Harvest. 3.. Independent Taiwanese movies. GD Y-Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member paimeifist Posted December 22, 2014 Member Share Posted December 22, 2014 I would say Shaws, but it seems to me they just had Faroese swordplay films than Golden Harvest or Indies. My favorite Shaw swordplay films would probably be Golden Swallow, The Jade Tiger, and The Proud Youth. (I assume these are all considered swordplay?). Shaw had so many that it is really hard to choose favorites. I believe the only Golden Harvest swordplay film I have seen is The Sword(Adam Cheng) which is among the very best of the genre. I am drawing blanks when it comes to independent swordplay films. I am curious to see what others say in regards to Golden Havest and Indies, as I have not seen many, or any that I can think of when it comes to independents.

Member GOLDEN DRAGON YIN-YANG Posted December 23, 2014 Author Member Share Posted December 23, 2014 Nice selection jimmywangfan. Also I should have stated Wu Xia instead of swordplay. GD Y-Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Secret Executioner Posted December 23, 2014 Member Share Posted December 23, 2014 Shaw Brothers: Return Of The One-Armed Swordsman The Wandering Swordsman Legend Of The Bat Strangely enough, I can't think of swordplays outside of Shaw Bros. But Shaw Bros has so many I still need to watch (such as New One-Armed Swordsman or Have Sword, Will Travel) I guess I can stick to SB swordplays for some time.

Member GOLDEN DRAGON YIN-YANG Posted December 23, 2014 Author Member Share Posted December 23, 2014 jimmywangfan Wow Time Runner looks stunning. Is this an end fight? Do you know the Chinese title? Could I get a copy of this from you? I could not finish watching as this is a must see for me. Thanks, GD Y-Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
