Guest Steve Barr Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 While I love the James Bond-ish staffs in 5 Element Ninjas, in The Invincible Fist I was first stunned by a villain breaking apart a watermelon with his hands, causing the seeds to shoot out as deadly projectiles. Then I was blown away by the "Golden Abacus" which not only lets the bearer fire off the golden beads and bead holders to deadly effect, but then becomes a 3-section staff for hand to hand combat! After that the combat umbrella in the same film was just ho-hum. What are your favorite crazy weapons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GwaiLoMoFo Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 The vagina blow darts in "Fudoh:The Next Generation". Oh wait.....wrong genre. :lol How bout the GIANT foot in Buddha's Palm. :rollin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Live Wire Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 There are a lot of crazy weapons in Demon of the Lute, eg Old Naughty with his golden scissor, Long Limb Evil with his teleskop arm or Red Haired Evil with his enlarged weapons. In Return of Bastard Swordsman there is Chen Kuan Tai with his big pounding heart. :lol :hat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Feng Gang Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I liked Tang Yu's (Derek Yee) triple sword in Jade Tiger and I'm still a fan of the double flying guillotine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest oldeschool17 Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Shaolin Prince- the "christmas" trees that one of the villains uses I think its in Rebel Army or one of the other Venoms films, the "watermellon" clubs Shaolin Monk/Killer Priest- Chan Sing's flying/talking shoe The saw blades that the villians used that were common in the Venom films Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Austin Jones Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 I can't remember the name of the flick, but one of the guys uses furry tiger claws. The Dragon Missile was a pretty good weapon. Ku Feng's beheading whip in Black Tavern. I agree with the above post - Chen Kuan Tai's pounding heart in Return of the Bastard Swordsman has to be the most bizarre, not to mention homo-erotic in its use. Watch it and see if I'm right.:| Austin Jones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Steve Barr Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Though named after a sword in wuxia fiction, I still get a kick out of the name of one in The Devil's Mirror: Fish Intestine Sword Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was called Fish Intestines because he hid it inside a fish during a banquet when he killed King Liao of the Wu State. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhuan_Zhu 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
