Member soultonic Posted February 5, 2020 Member Share Posted February 5, 2020 Hi Everyone, This is my first post in this forum. I was wondering if anyone could help me track down the name of an old movie I watched as a kid and loved but can't for the life of me remember the name. I’m sure it was a Chinese movie and there is a scene where 2 men fight outside and one guy will flick a coin in the air and the 2 men fight then before the coin hits the floor one of the men throws his shoe/ slipper to catch the coin. They do this about 4 times. I really want to watch again and have searched so hard but can’t find it. Any help would be much appreciated 😊 Thanks, Austin.

Administrator KUNG FU BOB Posted February 7, 2020 Administrator Share Posted February 7, 2020 This seems so familiar. I think I've seen it, but can't place it. Come on people- somebody here must know this film? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Shosetsu Posted February 7, 2020 Member Share Posted February 7, 2020 Much as I hate to say it, that particular scene sounds like an obscure film because it doesn't look familiar at all. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's bad at all--just saying that it's obscure. The closest thing I've seen to that Coin-catching stunt that you mention is from a Zatoichi Sword stunt where he deters a Yakuza gang by swiftly slicing off the tops of several lit-candles--as a result of which all the candle-tops wind up lined up along the length of his blade. While I'm at it, I might as well mention the hilarious Zatoichi stunt where his Sword sliced off a Yakuza's loincloth. The Yakuza was so horrified that he pissed. I heard of guys pissing in their pants but this guy was pants-less! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member ShawAngela Posted February 7, 2020 Member Share Posted February 7, 2020 Ins't it in one of Jackie Chan's early movies ? This scene with the coin and the shoe rings a bell to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we can figure this out. 20 hours ago, ShawAngela said: Ins't it in one of Jackie Chan's early movies ? This scene with the coin and the shoe rings a bell to me... Ah, you may be right @ShawAngela. Some of the Lo Wei directed ones I only watched once, and it was decades ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member soultonic Posted February 26, 2020 Author Member Share Posted February 26, 2020 thanks @ShawAngela and @KUNG FU BOB I will try and make a list of Jackie's earlier movies and make my way through them:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator KUNG FU BOB Posted February 26, 2020 Administrator Share Posted February 26, 2020 @soultonic sorry we weren't more help. I'm surprised no one here on the forum recognized the film you described. We usually have a positive ID very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member soultonic Posted February 28, 2020 Author Member Share Posted February 28, 2020 Thank you soooooo much! I am so happy and excited right now. This scene brings back such good memories for me. I was sure the movie title had Tiger in it too, but didnt want to throw people off the scent just in case I was wrong lol I can't wait to watch this movie later tonight when I get home from work. I wish I could buy you a drink or something to say thank you. Love you guys thank you sooo much:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
