    The scripts suck big time, but the actions are excellent, even in cheap ones.

    Also the final fight scene in Highlander, between Conner McCleod and the bad dude Kurgen.

      Crouching Tiger: Hidden Dragon - above all others.
      Also Fight Club is pretty cool in regards to that.

        true. But as I said, I wouldn't even mind the scripts too much if they were actually played and not said-out-loud.

            The "Art of Fighting Without Fighting" scene is the best fight scene in the movie. Pure defeat.


            Jackie Chan and Jet Li are good (Li is very good), but no one can compare to Bruce Lee. I watched a documentary on the making of his movies and a technical guy said the directors had to tell Lee to slow his moves down for the camera and audience because he was just too fast. Of course, he kicked Chuck Norris' a$$ in some tournament and Chuck ain't bad.

                My personal Chuck favorite is Silent Rage.

                        i dont like wire fu or CGs

                        which pretty much limits it to jackie chan.
                        :-p

                            The gang house fight in Rumble in the Bronx. I also enjoyed the Matrix fight scenes (every damn one of 'em), Bruce Lee in "The Game" v. Chuck Norris, Rocky v. Apollo in Rocky 1, and The initial Ninja massacre at the beginning of Ninja Scroll.

                              You sure dug this thing up, Ecth.

                              Gandalf v. the Balrog (both the part in FotR and the sequence at the beginning of TTT) was pretty good.

                              Raiders of the Lost Ark: when Indy fights the Bald German by the plane. Honorable mention to shooting the swordsman.

                              I second:

                              Princess Bride (Inigo v. Man in Black, Inigo v. 6-fingered man)
                              Top Secret (various)
                              Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (yeah, the two chicks hackin' and slashin')
                              Braveheart (I might go with the rock tossing, actually)
                              Shrek (both Donkey & Shrek v. Knights and the Dragon scene)
                              DieHard (kill, cook, eat. Hilarious)

                              -Arrian
                              grog want tank...Grog Want Tank... GROG WANT TANK!

                              The trick isn't to break some eggs to make an omelette, it's convincing the eggs to break themselves in order to aspire to omelettehood.
