Your favorite 'opening credits' SEQUENCE?

[Righteous Master]

My current fav is The 36th Chamber of Shaolin.

My current fav is The 36th Chamber of Shaolin.

I agree!

[The Dragon]

Enter The Dragon has an exciting, opening. The fight between Lee and Sammo is very energetic. The camera angles are good, and the flow of the action is direct, and ever so subtle.

I disagree. To me, the opening is only good because of Sammo's presence. And Bruce of course, it didn't feel too fluid.

Me again, maniac Thread starter. Hope it hasn't been done for a while. For me you can't beat a great opening to set the tone for the Kung-Fu ride your about to go on. So iv'e put my own 5 favs off the top of my head down. And to see if anyone agrees/ want's to adds them.

1.Warriors Two

2.The Hot The Cool And The Vicious

3.Snake in The Eagle's Shadow

4.Master Of The Flying Gulliotine

Two faves of mine are the opening intros of Billy Chong's Jade Claw aka Crystal Fist and Kung Fu Executioner.

Sorry Sifu. Guess im a bit impulsive, lethargic etc When it comes to doing homework . Don't know what the cut off time would be for resurrecting a topic, but will definitely do more scanning before having any more 'brainwaves' Figured in would surely have come up b4 but didn't spot in my brief scans. Will do my utmost to avoid such errors of judgement in future. So as to avoid giving reason for yours {any1 else's} disapproval. As you really don't strike me as the sort of person I would want to engage in any sort of banter {properly visa versa} with. So hopefully you will have no reason to voice opinions on any subject I may comment on/ raise in the future. And if you do ill simply ignore them, say what you like obviously {freedom of speech etc} but as to trying to rile annoy/put me off etc I'll quote my K-FU hero Bruce Lee "Don't waste yourself" .Once again sorry.

Don't apologise for starting topics that are old, if you didn't see it you didn't see it. Let the people who have a problem with it deal. If they choose to walk aroun the mountain rather than step over the mole hill, it's there problem. Ignore and don't make it yours

[MasterDrunk]

Nice choices Old Skool17 . Morgoth a fair few there I ain't seen.But yer love the NITDD one {great tune } and the MOTFG brilliant opening and theme {they sampled it briefly in Kill Bill} And Bravery cheers for comments but the guy's entitled to take certain things seriously if he wants to ,he's obviously very passionate about the genre/forum and probably thinks who's this joker posting old stuff/ silliness and as our Icons/names would suggest were defiantly not similar characters so may not exactly get on have similar views etc. But its been cool chattin with some fans on here so ill be trying to stick to some guidelines as while the novelty factor will ware off a bit soon and overdoing threads comments will fade I'm sure its a forum ill be checking out for a long time.

[Morgoth Bauglir]

Don't let him get to you. I think he has a goal of pissing off everyone on this forum one by one. If that's not his goal, then he has me fooled. I just try to ignore him for the most part, and it works out pretty well.

"let's get outta here...that guy's crazy!" ~Thundering Mantis, hilarious intro!!

personally, I love the intros/opening credits to The Big Boss and Fist of Fury, probably because they were the first two martial arts films I watched in their entirety. there are a ton of other good ones though

[MasterDrunk]

Yer cool Morgoth. Not bothered really, just wanted to get the message over that he shouldn't "waste himself" but he's prob got a point in the raising recent threads dept .And yer Mark just saw the TM 4 the 1st time a few days ago , His slapstick opening fight and then the 'mad' intro with him havin some sort of fit on the floor , set the scene nicely {print I had wasn't the best hope it gets a remastering one day if it already hasn't} Regarding the Brucie's haven't seen those two in a while can't remember the intro's {shame on me} But Enter the Dragon {my 1st K-Fu and still one of my favs } had a cool intro with Lalo Schfrin's funky score and clips of BL JK JS, deserves to be up there.

I loved the initial seremony in Gang Master, starring Austin Wai.

[thekfc]

OUATIC - where all the people training on the beach

New Legend of Shaolin - Jet & his Kid, the sword or the toy.

[oldeschool17]

not so much the intro but i love the music for the intros of Shaolin Temple and Life Gamble

[Sifu]

OUATIC - where all the people training on the beach

Epic, did they do that for the second as well. Or did are you thinking of OUATIC II. Great stuff though, the intro and ending of OUATIC III featured the lion dancers. Pretty impressive as well, too bad it was a crappy movie

[thekfc]

Both OUATIC 1 & 2 do have the training sequence on the beach, the difference are before getting to the beach training, in Pt 1 - Lion dance on the boat (sub version) then beach training, the dub version just starts with the beach training & in Pt 2 - White Lotus Cult training then Jet on train & beach training.

SO HARD TO CHOOSE WHICH IS FAVORITE!

[CrazyFrog]

I kinda like the one for Warriors Two, with Leung Kar Yan and Casanova Wong showcasing their abilities in the (fake) bamboo forest. Don't know why but it just is cool!
