What is the Worst Kung Fu Movie That You've Seen?

True. True. I've only seen him in one picture and that was enough for me. That live action Fist of the North Star was something awful.

LOL...but if Kung Pow is so terrible, why am I still quoting it ten years later?

Maybe we need to just make up a list of funny, ridiculous words Black Barney uses. "Barnisms" perhaps.

Sometimes I think he intentionally does these things to come across dumb. Maybe I'm giving him too much credit.

Anyone that thinks Kung Pow is really terrible definitely don't get "kung fu movies". I had watched many, many terrible Chinese-mainland movies. It was back then when HK wasn't part of China. HK kung fu movies vary from bad to good. But the Chinese mainland ones were REAAAAALLLY bad... especially because, due to the old Indonesian regime racism or may be just the gullibility of film importers, the movies were badly dubbed in English... "You killed my father" and "I'll teach you my new technique" bad...

lol, love the replies.

Green Lantern, you're right about that. As 'meh' as Forbidden Kingdom was, I ALSO liked it better than Blade Runner and especially Total Recall.


racialist has to be one of my favourite non-words. Really savvy (savy?) limey comedians use it...

this is the one I lifted it from. You can skip to 2:50 if you want but the whole thing is good...



Here's another one (i hope Pete/Schweig don't take offence)...



Even Mr. Moonbase 2020 said it...

Yea, it actually is. Racist douchebags [National Alliance; National Vanguard; The Covenant, The Sword & The Arm of the Lord [yea, they used to be a real group]; and every white guy in every band ever signed or distributed by Resistance Records] use the term to try to make their "politics of single-race preference" sound kultured.

On the flipside, academics generally use the term to refer to racially-motivated policy. I did a heap o' study on the US eugenics movement in the 20th century, and the term crops up early and often in the secondary sources. I've seen it in both US and UK publications, so I'm not sure who gets to lay claim to coining it.
