drunken master 2, shaolin v wu tang, or the 36th chamber of shaolin

Jet Li's latest movie Fearless, ranks pretty high on my list. But I still prefer old school Shaw Brother kung fu movies. Kid with the Golden Arm and Five Deadly Venoms are my all time favourite martial arts movies.

Some other classics:

Snake in the Monkey's Shadow (took me 15 years to find this!!)

Dragon Fist (young Jackie Chan... Fun fact: DJ Premier sampled the score for Royce the 5'9's "Hip-Hop" in '04 and ruined a scheduled project of mine lol)
Game of Death (restored original version)
Flying Guillotine (not to be confused with MotFG above)
etc etc...
