Love Kung Fu movies. Five Element Ninjas and Warriors Two are two of my favorites.

When I was a kid, one of our local network affiliates would show Kung-fu movies from, like 1:00-5:00 every Saturday afternoon. I must’ve watched dozens upon dozens of them growing up. Loved them. Couldn’t name any of them now, tho.

I was for a long time, then about ten years ago just stopped being interested. But the channel El Rey shows them on the regular, so my interest has been revived as of late

Honestly I had a similar trajectory with my interest. Have you seen the original Drunken Master with Jackie Chan? Amazing. Been way too long since I watched it.

Watched 7 Grandmasters over the weekend. It was fun but average. The kid had a bit of a Jackie Chan vibe.
