Beards-

5 Venoms

Brave Archer 3

Sword Stained with Royal Blood

Brave archer 4

Long Weapons-

any Venoms movie aside from 5 Venoms. Hell, any Chang Cheh Shaw movie after 5 venoms

Sun Chung films from Judgement of an Assassin on(minus Notorious 8 and Revenge of the Corpse/The Bloodthirsty Dead) . Deadly Breaking Sword with the single halberd.

Chor Yuen movies..As he and Sun Chung both used Tong Gaai as the choreographer(Death Duel has a single halberd come out of a pole). This is where you tend to see halberd usage.

Monkey Kung Fu..Kuan Feng with mesmerizing pole work

5 Super Fighters..Kuan Feng with mesmerizing spear work

Lau Kar Leung movies..Shaolin Mantis should get you..8DPF.Legendary Weapons(snake single halberd here)..My Young Auntie..um, Dirty Ho

The Master

Lover's Blades

even Cat vs Rat

Let us not forget Heroes of the East and 8 Diagram Pole Fighter, both Lau Kar Leung films.

Yeah, that is probably why he is trying to find good beards. Return of the Kung Fu Dragon with Polly Shang Kwan has a villain with one of the better beards I have seen.

I could be wrong though, he could be looking for really bad beards.

thanks for the titles.forgot about police pool of blood. i shouldve been more specific though. in the visual arts the beard was usually reserved for the villian[stubble-untamed no allegience to either side, clean shaven-hero],so if a "good" guy wore one it was usually a stylistic choice.this is what im looking for, a lead character[good or bad] with a cool beard and weapon[preferably long weapon]. the best examples ,i think are; Swordsman and the Enchantress and House of Traps. white beards are cool ,but on older chararcters they suggest wisdom. i want the stylistic beard. many thanks.

How about Ti Lung in The Kung Fu Instructor and The Master Strikes Back... I almost forgot Swordsman and Enchantress.
