POLL: Best Martial Arts Movies by Year (2015-2016)

[SmokingFistOfDoom]

I tried to include every relevant movie that could conceivably be chosen as a favorite, but avoided the truly crappy ones (unless it's one that some consider a guilty pleasure) or the really obscure ones. Apologies in advance if I missed your favorite, and I could possibly modify the poll if you let me know (it's the first time I do polls on this site).  I'm also thinking of doing a top 3 per year, as some years were simply overflowing with classics.  But I believe that would have to be manually calculated.  

Not sure if this will work well or not, but any suggestions welcome!

2015: I love Ip Man 3 but will go with SPL 2

2016: The Bodyguard (if that is the Sammo movie).

2015:

Ip Man 3 since I hadn't seen anything else (except for Kung Fury which was okay).

2016:

The Bodyguard (if that is the Yue Song movie).

Didn't realize there were two Bodyguard movies in 2016!  I added the Yue Song one.

Yikes! Talk about nothing to see here. I usually would sprint to the nearest theater to check out Martial arts cinema. I don't recall going at all to seek these films out cause some of them were on netflix and some were just aids on celluloid. I'd rather watch CSPAN for god sakes.

I adore Kung Fury by the way.

Shouldn't CALL OF HEROES also be included for last year?

Really sad to see that the quality of martial arts films in general has fallen a lot. I voted for The Assassin and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Sword of Destiny. The former is more because I absolutely love the cinematography and the story (the action is incredibly lackluster) and the latter because even though its kinda weird, the choreography is probably some of the best stuff in the past few years.

I also do like Ip Man 3 and SPL 2, but considering how much I love the previous films in each respective series, I think both were a bit of a disappointment.

Put me down for Ip Man 3 and (My Beloved Bodyguard). I didn't want to vote before watching CHTD:SOD.

[Super Ninja]

SOD is barely worth of being a contender.

Kung Fu Panda 3, really?

The only movie I've seen on both lists was Ip Man 3. Man, I need to stock up on more MA films.
