Is Ric Myers for real? What has he ever done for martial arts films? Also i heard he is an ex porn

star LOL is that true? I heard it here on Kung Fu Fandom. I tried to do a search for him on gogle

but i didnt come up with much besides a guy who looks like well... a greasy exporn star.

He has a website on myspace another site ive never been to. I thought that site was for little

kids? What's he doing there. profile.myspace.com/index...d=10593289

What has this person ever done for Asian Cinema i looked on his ''MYSPACE'' lol and all i saw was that

he liked some things but hardly any of it had to do with martial arts films. I vote for Linn too we need

a fresh face up there.

I guess if anyone ever wanted to really ask Ric Myers why - then all they would have to do is login to

that site and leave him a message because i saw the last time he logged in was yesterday.

Ric Myers!

first off, I want to thank everyone for their vote of confidence. I've purposely NOT posted on this thread because, while I'm not a fan of Ric, I do understand that the people running this wanted to go with someone they know. I get that and I understand, and I hope you will too. While I like to think I've done a bit for the genre, Ric is someone they've known for a long time. I don't want to make things too awkward for the people running this, by fans constantly bringing up my name to MC or anything else. They're not going to ask Ric to do it and then just take it away, nor do I think they should. But thank you all for thinking of me and that said...

because of all your e-mails and messages on this and other forums, Richard contacted me and asked me if I'd be able to come. He said he had been barraged with notes about getting me from all over. It seemed everyone he talked to asked if he had contacted me, even people helping with the event. To say this is flattering is an understatement. Like on this thread, I truly appreciate everyone putting my name out there. As of right now, there's about an 80% chance of me coming. The 20% is simply me being cautious. I want to stress that it's because of you guys, and folks from all over the world really, that I'm making every effort to attend. I look forward to seeing as many of you as I can and promise at least one or two BIG announcements that I hope can be let out of the bag by that time. If we can set up a Chinese dinner or something somewhere in Philly for all the kung fu fandom folks, I'd be up to that as well.

Awesome, hopefully you will be able to be Commentator on some Martial Movie one day as well.

Like i had mentioned before i feel that you would do a good Job on "Human Lanterns"...

Because of your cult horror / kung fu background.

If you could choose any movie to comment on which one would it be Linn? If you ask me

there is just too much that is not known about kung fu movies that i feel we are better off with

at least some commentary on around %40 of the films.

I dont see why companies do not do it. I guess there are not so many people who can do it in the

first place. My personal view is that you have to be destined to do it.

No sweat Dave. Contact him here: Director1666@aol.com

Thank you brother.

And Linn, your a man of class and excellent manners. I for one would like to see you there and having a chinese dinner with you and all of the KFF crew would be very cool. First round of Scorpion Bowls are on me!

Ok I will chime in here and just say that he has been a private student of Lo Meng for many years now. And the reason for his listing Ric Meyers inititally is because they all fall in the same circle. Richard's relationship with Lo Meng is the defining factor for this event. Period!

Linn1, you have support beyond your wildest imagination. I understand your 20%, but I must say the 80% is very encouraging. Such an event has never been in place before this down the line. And there is much anticipation indeed. I know others feel the same when I say your presence at the least is as important and meaningful as the event itself. Keep up the great work!

Good looking on the contact response teako!

Thank you brother.
No prob. I'll see you at the clinic. I'll be the one that Lo is mopping the floor with! :rollin

Good looking on the contact response teako!
VFan - you coming to the clinic as well? I plan to make my hotel reservations in a few weeks. I could drive back & forth but summer traffic is always a bear at the shore.

Ah yes, all is coming to plan. Rick (not Meyers) is really putting a lot of effort into this and financing the whole enchilada himself. A business venture is always a risk but we can show him that such a risk was well worth it by coming to Philly this August. Its a once in the lifetime event for many.

Besides, if anything, Linn is buying everyone dinner.

Or, did I read that wrong....?

Linn I would like the Chinese Barbeque Spare ribs with pork fried rice, sweet and sour soup, some Ching Tao beer to wash it down with and some Chinese donuts for desert. Be sure sure to bring lots of green backs with you in case you have already maxed out your credit card! :b

On second thought let's stick Ric with the bill, he owes us for all that misinformation he's put out. :evil

Just booked my hotel reservation. Prices are historically higher in the prime months of summer but I landed a place for 70 bucks.

Spoke to Rick over the weekend. Advance tickets are going to go on sale shortly. He plans to have a Paypal link on his site as well as an address to send payment (if you don't have a CC).

This is very goods news and I would also like to thank all kung fu Fandom members for their vote of confidence in our respectable and knowledgeable Senior Moderator Linn Hayes.

I also believe that this will be a great opportunity to get a group photo of all the Fandom members in attendance plus some group photos of Lo Mang and the Fandom members.Individual shots if possible with The Venom will be most welcome.

These pictures can be posted here for those of us unfortunate to be on the other side of the Pacific and elsewhere.I am also kindly making a request to Linn to share the experience with us in a thread like " An Audience With Tarantino " which I did a few years back when " Mr Brown " himself appeared at a special screening in London for the promotion of the first Kill Bill.

We hope you guys enjoy the event,it is a rare event;we hope you make the best of it.

just the event alone is going to be hard for me to attend, but I will be there.

And just so everyone knows, here's a post from T from another thread:

Okay here's the deal....

The new dates are Saturday, August 25th and Sunday, August 26th.

The fight choreography class will be held on Saturday and the banquet dinner will be held Saturday evening.

The expo will be held on Sunday.

Everything else is still the same (location, etc.)

There are still some tickets available for the fight choreography class, so if you're interested hit up Richard at director1666@aol.com

There's a post from Rick on the subject below. The new dates are saturday August, 25th for the fight choreography clinic and the award banquet. Sunday August, 26th is the martial arts expo still the same location International House 3701 Chestnut st.

Paypal will be available in a few days for those who want to pay by credit card.

Others can send in a money order or check to this address below.

Now here are the prices: $25.00 in advance if ordered through me and $30.00 at the door.

The fight clinic is $75 which also gets you into the expo the following day.

The banquet is $120.00 plus free ticket to expo next day.

Now here is something just added for everything which includes martial arts expo, fight clinic and banquet is only $160.00 you save $35.00.

When purchasing your ticket please put what event you would like to attend.

And there will be other celebrity guess at the expo from film and television.
