Member Jesse Smooth Posted August 26, 2009 Member Share Posted August 26, 2009 I'm sure there is, maybe say but thanks anyway would have bin No problem at all. But off topic for a minute: It seems like genuine kung fu schools like the one Carter had are very hard to come by these days. Seems like all the "kung fu" schools are either wushu, Shaolin-Do or some type of doctored up kenpo. Any comments? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fjax Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 There has just been a site that has been created for Carter at http://carterwong.hostoi.com/. Just wondering if there are any comments about it. Apparently it's still still being fixed and modified due to some browser compatibility issues.

Member Killer Meteor Posted September 9, 2009 Member Share Posted September 9, 2009 I personally quite like Carter Wong, he kicks ass and has a cool "don't f*** with me" screen prescence. Shame his Angela Lansbury impression in Born Invincible is going to haunt him for ever! Incidentally, the callusses on his right hand can be seen in close-up on the 1974 documentary Kung Fu Killers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member MarsHarmony Posted September 13, 2009 Member Share Posted September 13, 2009 Thank you Frank Bolte for the thread, and thank you Jesse Smooth for posting the interview with Carter Wong. I love it when someone who has intimidated me for years, turns out to be a very nice man and obviously a wonderful teacher who cares for his students. The first time I saw him was in "Marco Polo", in the theater when it came out, and he fights like a possessed animal with such ferocity, he really made an impression on me, 'this guy is intense'. Bless his heart. It may not be a great movie, but the action, done by Hsieh Hsing and Chan San Yat, is very exciting.

Member Monk Sante Posted September 13, 2009 Member Share Posted September 13, 2009 Carter may not be flashy on screen but he does get the job done on film IMO. I respect his work as an actor and a Martial Artist. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMK Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 One of the first major actors I really enjoyed watching, was definitely Carter Wong. With movies like Born Invincible, The 8 Masters, and the Bronzemen movies, he was indeed one of my favorites to watch when I first got into the scene. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member MarsHarmony Posted January 11, 2011 Member Share Posted January 11, 2011 Carter Wong made his debut with Mao Ying in Hapkido (1971). I first saw Carter Wong in Marco Polo (1975) where he fights like a savage animal, and it is a very exciting sequence indeed. I have Shaolin Kung Fu Mystagogue (1976) and Rebel of Shaolin (1977), with the always villainous Chang Yi in both as well, and they are certainly good films to watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Morgoth Bauglir Posted January 15, 2011 Member Share Posted January 15, 2011 Love Carter Wong. Rebel of Shaolin aka Shaolin Traitor is my fav. He's a badass mofo in that one. Escape technique! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jadedragon61 Posted January 16, 2011 Member Share Posted January 16, 2011 Carter Wong, as the man is actually a master level martial artist, I have long thought of as one of the best old school guys. The Bronzemen series and Born Invincible, among others, are classics. You know, there's the story that Bruce Lee was showing Bob Wall and Chuck Norris around the GH studios and Carter Wong happened to be on some set (I forget what film) choreographing the action. Well, Bruce proceeds to tell Bob and Chuck, in very loud English, that he thinks that what's going on is crap. Carter Wong stopped what he was doing, and looked Bruce dead in the eyes. Everybody on the set shut the hell up, and some tense seconds passed... Then Bruce just smiled, and walked off. Thus, in HK I used to here it said that Carter Wong was the only man who ever stared Bruce down. (The story might be apocryphal - I guess only Buddha knows.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it turns out to be untrue, it's very entertaining. I've never been disappointed by Carter Wong in a film. I seemed to particularly enjoy his performance in The Magnificent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
