Jackie Chan vs. The King of Bamboo | Drunken Master

[@KyloBedo-]

no cuts, no camera shakes, distortion or tricks. just talented clean choreography

[@TheKessi1000]

Talented? This choreography is stiff as hell. Nothing looks fluid or realistic to fighting. It’s all stop, go and wait movement. I love old movies like this for their charm, but this choreography is ass.

[@npcimknot958]

@@TheKessi1000that was the style back then. Jackie brought in the fluid stuff.. already this was starting to go that direction. And it wasn’t ass.. because nothing fluid was done before this. Buddy

[@smaller_cathedrals]

The other day I tried to watch these God awful Denzel Washington male power fantasy bullshit movies, I don't even know what they're called (The Eraser, The Cleaner, The Vanisher, whatever) and they're just so insultingly dumb and disrespectful to the audience in terms of fight sequences. Denzel is a fine actor, no discussion, but unlike Keanu Reeves, he doesn't put in any effort in terms of action. The results are "choreographies" that consist soley of all those annoying movie "tricks" you mentioned: cuts every half second, shakey cam, all the atrocious nonsense to hide the poor performance. Asian Kung Fu movies back then easily surpass 90% of current action flicks. And the ones that actually work usually have some talented guy with experience in Asian cinema behind the choreographies.

[@Kjleed13]

It’s funny, Jackie isn’t a huge fan of this type of choreography. He found it very stiff, slow, with a lot of poses in between.

[@auklon3372]

plenty of camera cuts, and a few continuity errors(mainly the dishes on the tables) Still is awesome!

[@sS0ulSs]

Can we appreciate how very talented the other actor is as well? In fact, all of Jackie's movies are comprised of very talented individuals

[@VantaClawz]

Truth. Phenomenal martial artists!

[@RealEstateEntrepreneur]

The first movie I seen Sifu in was Bronx Brawl ot Brawl in the Bronx. After that I seen him in Cannon Ball Run.

[@paeden5431]

i mean, there's so many edits to make his actions look great that it makes me think, he's not all that impressive without great editing

[@UnderdogErick]

Jackie Chan Stunt Team. He's been working with a lot of the same guys for decades.

[@lalocazadelTai-Chi]

He is truly amazing: in a real life showdown at that age, mr chan would be turn to dust easily by this great fighter.

[@atranimecs]

"Thats called a fart for the stick king." Is going to live rent-free in my mind for the rest of my life. Lol

[@brianstuntman4368]

It's been there in my mind for the last 3 decades😐

[@Android_Warrior]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@FS2K4Pilot]

Am I the only one who thinks it’s just wrong to have someone other than Jackie dub his dialog into English?

[@geraldstephens6612]

This must be an earlier version of Drunken Master; the remake have Jackie Chan & cast speaking English much better .

[@ImpendingJoker]

@@geraldstephens6612 You're confusing this with Legend of Drunken Master, not the same movie but a lot of the same actors.

[@Jaanikins]

No

[@zemlidrakona2915]

I would rather read subtitles and have him speak Chinese.

[@PennywiseTheDancingClown274]

In beginning he has John Wayne style for a second... Speaking not fighting 😅

[@Ally-Oop]

I fucking love this dub. “I did tell you to take it easy.” So smarmy.

[@SmogOg-t9h]

[@x_OZYMANDIAS_x]

Jackie Chan is a living legend! MAD SKILLS!

[@alexmartin2803]

"go get my stick" not sure why but I fell out laughing at that dub. 😆

[@curtisallen5834]

For 20 years, that line has cracked me up!

I love Jackie. His movies never gets old. Jackie is Freaking Awesome. 😎👍💯

[@unrussleablejimmies4428]

Everyones a gangster until Jackie starts fighting with a piece of furniture...

Man. 😭🤣🤣

[@saintalfonzo999]

This flick is awesome, I've watched it dozens of times and the English dub is hilarious. "I'm only starting"

[@michaelsullivan8934]

Greatest moment in comedy: "hm what do we do?" "hm" both together: "We run like hell!"

[@alarkhar]

Interesting bit of trivia: the character played by Jackie Chan, Wong Fei Hung, is possibly one of the biggest names in kung fu legend - basically the equivalent of Bruce Lee for historical China (legendary China was another thing entirely). He was basically unstoppable, a literal force of nature, and aging did NOT stop him in any way. He was also quirky as quack - so the perfect character for Jackie to play.

[@npcimknot958]

0:13 he only had to say ,’ eh’ and this would become a Canadian movie 😂

[@brekkoh]

I love how this shows his OG fight scene style, but it feels so slow compared to what he made in the 90s, definitely found his art and crafted it

[@emerynoel567]

yeah for sure, if you just focus on stick guys's movements, especially early on in the fight, it's much slower than you expect. Still rad as hell though :)

[@DjVortex-w]

The hardest part is making a completely ridiculous fight look believable.

[@NeanderthalNorthman]

Not so sure they even accomplished that here lol

[@chengfu7063]

Boxing is stupid wearing oven mitts and shorts and a ring with rules trying to cover up the truth of battle when when should use one's body as an entire weapon just like that goofball Mike Tyson who by the way is a convicted sexual predator and a Mickey mouse sounding loser

[@riveteye93]

​@@NeanderthalNorthmanbefore mma or the Internet, we didn't exactly know how real fights look like

[@NeanderthalNorthman]

@riveteye93 come on, did you really need to see an MMA fight before realizing this looked absolutely ridiculous? As does almost every fight scene in every one of these types of movies. MMA isn't even a real fight but it's at least as close as we can get while still keeping some sense of order to it.

[@armandoseguro9190]

​@@riveteye93 😂 yeah, sure.

[@Vares65]

Now that's some top notch choreography!

[@mantislake4141]

Is it though? If you like it, fine, but I can't find it anything but boring and unfunny.

[@younglove3362]

That's because you're hard to please with no sense of humor.

[@canontheory]

Drunken Master and Snake in the Eagles Shadow are classics, 2 of the best Jackie Chan movies

[@josephgrimminck6855]

The nose tweak at 4:34 prolly won this brawl. Imagine leading in as a bad ass karate master with a weapon! .... and BOOP nose tweak XD Jackie Chan Goat!

[@sentinel6660]

It was a chin pinch bro

[@WakingLight]

Beautiful! Much love to Jackie, but that staff work was awesome!

[@mindjob]

Be honest. When you swing a broom around, do you make wu-wu sounds?

[@KarnageGaming]

each and every time. its like write of passage 🤣

[@donkink3114]

Brooms, random sticks, cut offs from woodworking and any and all of my swords lol

[@Arrlidge]

Shoom wishah absolutely :)

[@morticia981]

Always.

[@AnimatedMovies-mv1qo]

Even the beating sound "boom boom" in reality it doesn't exist But the sounds are exaggerated for us to easily understand if the hit has been blocked or it got the opponent.

[@0N3DR3AD]

"Oh boy, that's some good wine." I'm gonna use that line. 😅💌

[@Randommo395]

The Drunken Master this was one of the few Jackie Chan movies that I used to own in my teens. This really brings back good memories thanks.

[@steveforbes7718]

Jackie Chan - The man, the clown, the legend! Even though these movies were camp and tacky at best, they were still fun and the choreography was splendid.

Я всегда ждал сцены после титров, это было очень жестоко порой, но добавляло крутости Джеки и фильму !!!

[@jeffn4836]

The obvious stunt double at 1:40 is hilarious.

[@IvanSensei88]

It's funny how in movies or shows, to use the drunken fist style characters get intoxicated with alcohol, while in reality - it's a really refined and complex martial art style, where you actually DON'T want to be drunk to use it.. it incorporates such unpredictable, unorthodox and seemingly random movements and tempo that is often attributed to as if being drunk, making it a really difficult martial art to master... and being in a drunken state is the LAST thing you want if you want to use this art properly xD

[@spartanx169x]

The Drunken style of completely unusable against anybody with any fighting skills. MMA has proven that. The same way with all forms of Kung Fu. It works against someone with zero skill but thats all. Real street fight people end up wrestling a lot of the time if the fight goes past more than 2 or 3 punches.

[@chemimal]

しかし、現実の殴り合いはアルコールが入ってからの方が多く、またアルコールを飲んでいるからといって闘いから保護される訳でもありません。

[@No._6]

@@spartanx169x Yeah, technically kungfu forms aren't even meant to be used in sequence as if they're combo systems like the movies portray. They just hold a list of technique positionings to help the student remember and practice conceptual fighting technique, but not to practice fighting. No actual practice of martial arts was permitted outside of military for more than a hundred years in China. Kungfu/wushu etc are more akin to cultural dances.

[@No._6]

@@chemimal True

[@dabiga2315]

This may be the greatest fight scene I've ever watched

[@No._6]

You'd probably enjoy the final fight in this movie against "Thunder Leg" (Not the initial fight against him which is nothing but Jackie getting whopped and humiliated)

[@MitchClement-il6iq]

Watch more fights my guy! From this genre there is many classics!!! Watch sammos spooky encounters.

[@Hybrid_Therapy]

4:53 What a chad 🍹💪

[@mbertrand]

Those sound effects are fantastic! 🤣

[@Marcus-rg7bg]

No internet. Tv was limited. You went outside. We studied this stuff hard and then go out and try it. Every now and then we got to stay out past dark. We went from swords to sticks to hand to hand. It was fun till it got real. Somebody got hit to hard. Skills put to real test then.

[@fredferd965]

Ah, yes, contusions, broken bones, bodies on the ground, Colombo walking around taking notes and continually saying, "Ah, Just one more question...." The judge shaking his head, the prosecutor shaking his head, a defense attorney crying in his beer, a parole officer shaking his head, and finally a shrink giving up in disgust after he tears up his notes....one of those days...

[@remowilliams8421]

Yes! Exactly, We would tie our shirts around heads face only showing our eyes, so we look like ninjas.

1:34 I don’t know how a human being can move like that I’m truly amazed by Jackie Chan

[@terenceblakely4328]

Curious how any fight involving a staff doesn't end up as a wrestling match over the staff.

[@xxlCortez]

Jackie Chan don't seem to need that staff.

[@maximilionmcdonald2726]

This was not a fight. This was a man playing with a child.

[@JUYAN16]

Jackie needs to be a guest character in a Tekken game.

[@kofrugal98bernstein76]

The sheer lack of cuts and consists of nothing but long really shows you how immaculate choreography back then used to be

If you don't have the Original Version on DVD you won't enjoy the movie. Imagine seeing an old Kung Fu movie and not seeing how they trained to beat the bad guy. That's how Kung Fu movies are on Now.
