I am probably going to tick of a few people by saying this but I was never a real Bruce Lee fan. It seem like he gets better the longer he is dead. don’t get me wrong he was extremely good and he broke the mold for tradition Kung Fu. I like Jet Lee, I like Steven Segal, I also like Jackie Chan.

Bruce Lee

They are all good martial artists but I do not think any of them compare to Bruce Lee.

Without bruce lee I would like to see how famous Jackie Chan, Jet Li etc would be.

He was good on film. And excellent of film. You should read Tao Of Jeet Kune Do avery good read.

the same argument could be made about John Wane with out him would Clint Eastwood been as good of a cowboy or as famous, Bruce Lee was very good but he was no Monk.

OK

I am aware that Bruce was no monk so I'll stop talking about him but I will start a new thread on Bruce Lee if you would like to continue.

Has any one seen 36th Chamber of Shaolin?

[redeagle]

i think so this is the story of the three section staff

Shaolin

Correct,

But there is much more in it than just that.

What was your favourite parts?
Any other good shaolin movies?

Also you seem to know quite abit about shaolin, talk about whether the movies are realistic to what the shaolin guys do in real life.

hmmmmmm

well i don't know of any shaolin temples in thailand. think thats only china. but if you have any sugestions about what i could practise in thailand so please tell me.

[kluten]

does anyone know how the ranking / frading system is in shaolin kung fu????

[aseepish]

There are many temples in Thailand, but not many Shaolin. In Thailand you can study Muay Thai (of course), and/or Krabri Krabrong - a very aggressive full power weapons art. Check out the Muay Thai/Kickboxing forum for more info.

Ranking

The ranking system I am not completely sure on but as far as I know (in aceint times, not to sure about now) its got to do with the number of dots on their head.

Hopoe this helped.
