IBecause it is such a wide field I have split it into four sections:

We will have a semi and a final in each section, then the winners go into the Semis leading to a Final. The Final 4 of each section are:

Jackie: Police Story, Druken Master, Project A & Dragons Forever

OA: Ong Bak, Iron Monkey, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon & Fearless

AMA: Nico, Bloodsport, Invasion USA & American Ninja

SO the four semis are (You need to vote of on all them)

Bruce
Fists of Fury Vs. Way of the Dragon
Enter the Dragon Vs. The Big Boss


Jackie
Dragons Forever Vs. Project A
Police Story Vs. Drunken Master


OA
Ong Bak Vs. Crouching Tiger

Lousy pairings as usual..evileye.gif

Bruce Lee -

Fists of Fury Vs. Way of the Dragon - Very tough as these are my two favourite Bruce films!
Enter the Dragon Vs. The Big Boss - Reluctantly I'll give Dragon the nod here

Jackie Chan -

Dragons Forever Vs. Project A - I went for Dragons as I felt the chemistry between all three was better.
Police Story Vs. Drunken Master - Again tough but Master is an all time classic

Other Asian films -

Ong Bak Vs. Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon - Frankly Tiger a better story
Fearless Vs. Iron Monkey - Tough but Fearless is a modern classic

US films -

Nico Vs. Invasion USA -Not seen either but Chuck is better than Seagull

Bloodsport Vs. American Ninja - Meh.

Fist of Fury Vs. Enter the Dragon - Dragon is more popular but Fist is a better film in my opinion.

Dragons Forever Vs. Police Story - Both are great but the former has the Three Opera Brothers in it.

Ong Bak Vs. Iron Monkey - Ong Bak was good but too much of a (clearly impressive) stunt show with no story.

Nico Vs. Bloodsport - Van Damme vs Seagal? Like Doherty vs Winehouse for me...

Fists of Fury Vs. Enter the Dragon - Got to go with MiB on this one...

Dragons Forever Vs. Police Story

Ong Bak Vs. Iron Monkey - I still say Ong Bak is the finest MA movie in many, many years

Nico Vs. Bloodsport - Tough call but Bloodsport has more action
