What about the Martial Arts episode of...Good list! What about the Martial Arts episode of Penn & Teller's "Bulls**t!" on Showtime? Controversial but good stuff nonetheless.<br /><br />I think most martial arts movies are seriously flawed. The reality isn't as "sexy" on the screen to most folk as it would be to those of us who actually practice martial arts, so everything has to be superhuman or wire fu acrobatics - which is fun to watch but I'm always having to suspend too much of my disbelief, and it ruins it for me.<br /><br />What about the story of, say, a TKD or judo player going for the gold at the Olympics? There's got to be a ton of good stories there.<br /><br />"The Foot Fist Way", while a parody, is unfortunately rooted in truth - we've all known or heard of dojos, teachers, and artists like that, haven't we?<br /><br />--HerM.A.L.S.http://martialartslatestart.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
