This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: Bedrockbrendan on March 12, 2025, 07:41:02 PMI don't think I have seen 7 man Army. Chang Cheh is usually a good time. It isn't a WWII epic, but he did a movie called The Savage Five, that also has Ti Lung, which I remember being pretty good

It's not really worth watching.  At 100 minutes, it felt at least twice that long.

I just watched a movie called Holy Flame of the Martial World.  There it is.  I have actually found a movie that is crazier and more wtf filled than Zu: Warriors from the Magic Mountain.  This is worth watching just for how utterly bonkers it is.

Holy Flame of the Martial World is one of my favorite movies from that era (Web of Death is another good one in this category). I think of this stuff as Gonzo Wuxia. It is like anything goes. Buddha's Palm, the 1982 version, is pretty crazy as well
