and while on the subject, while not a movie I would say Infinite Kung Fu is one of the best martial arts stories in recent memory. It's a comic book and graphic novel by Kagan McLeod.

Kickboxer 1989
Out for Justice 1991
Big Trouble in Little China 1986

If these don't count as Martial Arts movies, that's fine, put them on the top 100 dudebro movies of all time.

Lol, that sounds like a good idea for a new thread. I think they definitely count. Whether or not they are among the best martial arts movies of all time is debatable. I think Big Trouble in Little China is a classic. The other two I'm not so sure about, but there's no denying that every action fan has probably seen a few Jean-Claude Van Damme or Steven Seagal movies so I expect to see one or two of their movies suggested. I'll add them to the list

1. Enter the Dragon
2. Bloodsport
3. The Drunken Master II
4. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
5. Shaolin Soccer
6. The 36th Chamber of Shaolin
7. Iron Monkey
8. Dragon Tiger Gate
9. Fist of Legend
10. Best of the Best
11. Kung Fu Hustle
12. IP Man
13. Legend of the Fist: The Return of Chen Zhen
14. Black Mask
15. Ong Bak
16. Sha Po Lang(Killzone)
17. Once Upon a Time in China
18. The Protector
19. Chocolate
20. Azumi
21. Five Deadly Venoms
22. House of Flying Daggers
23. Flashpoint
24. Fist of Fury
25. Hero
26. Ong Bak 2
27. 8 Diagram Pole Fighter
28. Crippled Avengers
29. Fearless
30. Police Story
31. The Man from Nowhere
32. Project A
33. Versus
34. Story of Ricky aka Riki-Oh

I was wondering if someone was going to suggest that. I'm surprised it took this long. I liked that movie, better than the second one. Mortal Kombat Legacy is fun too
