DOA The Movie - As Good As It Sounds?

I only saw the Street Fighter movie once on TV. Never really heard of it otherwise...

though I must say there's a Street Fighter scene in Jackie Chan's version of City Hunter, which is most hilarious to watch. And there's another Chinese movie with Street Fighter characters made to look alike in it, though their leader was somehow Son Goku from DragonBallZ.

The funniest fighting movie I have ever seen is Kung Fu Hustle.

I don't know if it's the funniest, though it certainly is one of the best.

Some that I think are funnier are Shaolin Soccer, Kung Pao, which are purely Kung Fu comedies.

What Hustle had going for it, was it's slapstick Coyote and the Roadrunner, cartoon effect humor. Other than that, it's either serious, violent or cute... equal parts.

the tap-dance scene at the end of Zatoichi was a sort of WTF moment for me

Must be an Asian thing. I've seen that in Korean movies. And it's a mainstay of Bollywood.

Owned. I voted yes because I'm shallow and not with the crowd on this vote.

Stephen Chow made alot of other bunch of lameass crap hong kong movies that were funny as hell. Double Agent 007, Double Agent zero zero Zeven (on ancient times)...and some others I can't remember, I was so young then.

Well, according to your myspace, women are your weakness James. There is a solution to your problems, however. A cold shower.

I remember that particular scene in Kung Fu Hustle when he got bitten by snakes in the lips because he thought snakes love music...lol..

Stephen Chow is popular for lameass lead characters that make it a whole lot funnier...

I remember a Dragonball Chinese live action movie once. Although I havent seen it again. It was Goku and his stretch stick and the flying nimbus...

You sure it was a movie? I remember watching a serialized drama Monkey King. Based on the mythological goku. It's a shame I never finished it.

Monkey King = Campy Krap IMO. Not one of your better recommendations, Nodes. (Also IMO) The scene in the stomach was funny, though.

I dunno. It was a long time ago... But it lasted for about 2 hours or so so it might be a movie...

Kame was there too...
