Default Favorite "Hollywood" fighter?
Who's everyone favorite "Hollywood" or movie action hero? My personal favorite without a doubt is Bruce Lee - but after that, is definitely Jet Li. They are both amazing fighters, and you can not doubt that.

I do NOT like Chuck Norris, Steven Segal, or Van Damme. Chow Yun Fat has made my list too, and Michelle Yu isn't bad.

Thoughts?

Definitely Bruce Lee. I have the utmost respect for that man. He pioneered hollywood kungfu to what it is today. He's the one who started the martial art movie flicks.

It's a shame how he died, and how his son wasn't as big of a success as he.

I agree with that comment completely Rogue. Without Bruce Lee, there would be no Jackie Chan, or Jet Li. As a matter of fact, there would hardly be any good action flicks.

What's your favorite Bruce Lee flick?

I would have to disagree. Bruce Lee was awesome, yes. But I'm sure people like Jackie Chan and Jet Li would've surfaced anyways.
Who's Michelle Yu? Do you mean Michelle Yeoh?

I agree. Martial Arts is too big to not have been noticed by Hollywood at some point. Bruce Lee did start it off. Very talented fighter. But I wouldn't say he's Hollywood. He actually fights. Hollywood just picked him up.
Michelle Yeoh is pretty sexy. She's an expert in martial arts. I don't know which form, though.

Don't hate on chuck norris.

Chuck Norris can divide by zero.

Ahh chuck norris facts!

I really need to spend more time training and less time surfing the net.

lol @ Chuck Norris facts.

Sorry, but Chuck Norris is HORRIBLE. The only movie he was good in was the one where he fought with Bruce Lee.

With that said, Bruce Lee is my favorite hands down. The man is the definition of martial arts.

Jet Li isn't bad, but just a little too "Americanized" for me. I like his older, Chinese stuff.

Chuck Norris and Bruce Lee?
What film was that?

Was it Jet Li that was in that move that was out about a year ago? Bank-something?
Darn.. what was that movie called.

Duh - Bruce Lee. The man has done wonders for everything. But I've been watching some great movies, and Jet Li is pretty darned talented.

There are some other Chinese actors, but I'm not sure of their names, but they are very good also. The chick from House of Flying Daggers was pretty good too.

Anyone know her name?
