Right back to what this thread is about. We can start a football thread later :-) This is one of my fav fight scenes from a classic flick. Its called "They Live".. it even has "Rowdy" Roddy Piper in it! youtube.com/watch?v=wqKFadyJxwgIf anyone has seen the Jimmy/Timmy fight from South Park? They did a hilarious spoof of this. Oh and apologies there is some bad language in there so careful! Heh, I was going to post that one today, it's my favourite! So bad it's great! I'd forgotten about the South Park parody, I had to explain to some of my friends what the scene was based on at the time. |

Mike: That is one pushy salesman. He was'nt a salesman Colm! He was a homeless grifter trying to save the world. Cut the guy some slack!  Has anyone seen "Dynamite Warrior" yet? Im wondering if its worth watching. I hear its along the lines of Ong Bak and Warrior King *mike can hear Derek ripping every video store in dublin apart as we speak ;D |

Hey - I was lucky enough to be invited to a private screening for a new MMA movie, 'Never Back Down' - It's like Karate Kid meets fight club - not really my cup of tea but I thought it would be a lot worse and I did enjoy bits of it. I bet loads of you will like it.......Mike, Colm etc. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmDzyS6LRto |

There is a few of these coming out over the next while. There is another one called RedBelt out soon. Was'nt Ian Freeman involved in an english underground cage fighting film ?
Oh yeah, Was it me or did someone throw a jumping spinning roundhouse kick toward the end of that clip? Id love to see Tim Sylvia try that one!

Never Back down looks a laugh. All flashy moves, Bright lights and everyone is good looking and cool. The thing I dont get about that other one Redbelt... although its probably more realistic is that it looks boring. No offense intended toward that style. Its a different kettle of bananas when your competing in it but watching it is like golf. Out of a 2min highlight reel the best they can show is is a bit of a scuffle on the ground with a guy in a half choke that walks up a wall ...! I cant see that one doing really well. Apart from maybe the hardcore mma and jiu jitsu fans. Whereas Never back down looks like it could appeal to a broader audience. Anyway just a thought and I will more than likely be proven wrong  |

Never back down is getting bad reviews on Sherdog, they seem to think it is dragging MMA back into the days of "Human Cockfighting". For a lot of people this movie will be their first impression of MMA. I dont know, I have"nt seen the film, but i think it will be mostly fight fans who will want to see it anyway. they should be able to see it for what it is, just a movie and a bit of a laugh

ok, spot the geek here, one of my faves is the bar fight scene from Serenity. seeing a meek classically trained dancer take down a full bar of 'tough guys' is pretty cool ;D

I almost forgot about Braveheart. Someone takes an arrow to the butt.
