Stay Still While I Kick You Fans of martial arts action films in this region would find reason to celebrate recently with the introduction of Iko Uwais showcasing some combat Silat in Merantau and while I had counted him in amongst peers such as Tony Jaa, Jija Yanin stands out for being the only female of the lot who can dish out as much punishment as she could receive, and breakthrough performances...

The bright light on the otherwise dour martial arts film scene has been Thai filmmaker Prachya Pinkaew and his stellar collaborations with fellow Thai Tony Jaa in such films as Ong Bak and Tom Yum Goong . But Tony Jaa let his fame travel straight to his ego, and decided to self-direct Ong Bak 2 , a sequel apparently set hundreds of years before the events depicted in Ong Bak , and having in common...

Just spoiling the poster for my Kung Fu Fridays through December and January. We'll be missing some dates because, well, the holidays (but what kind of holidays will they BE without Kung Fu, I ask you), but that's still 7 full nights of Asian cinema in my living room. The first Friday of December will be a Best Of night, featuring the best fights we've seen since the beginning. Fun for those who couldn't...

American martial artist Marrese Crump e-mailed a press release yesterday, saying he's in talks to star in Prachya Pinkaew's next film. The release was quickly picked up by Kung Fu Cinema and Twitch , and seems to be backed up by a pair of YouTube videos, a promo teaser and another one that shows Crump in training at Prachya's Baa Ram Ewe training facility (embedded below). Here's an excerpt from the...

The plot: The legend of Ong-Bak 3 begins after Tien (Tony Jaa) has lost his fighting skills and his beloved step-father at the Garuda's Wing cliff from the raid led by Jom Rachan (Saranyu Wongkrajang).

Yall know me. I dont do poster articles. I think theyre pointless and not really news. However, I am a huge fan of Tony Jaa and his ongoing Ong Bak series. The last one, Ong Bak 2 (review) is a bit of...

After director / star Tony Jaa had a very public meltdown while working on his recent Ong Bak 2 it comes as no surprise that producers Sahamongkol Film have been keeping things quiet as far as progress on Ong Bak 3 . But you can't keep silent forever and with the arrival of the American Film Market comes the arrival of brand new artwork, confirmation that Jaa is directing the film solo - Panna Rittikrai...

Surprise! Rejoice action fans over this region! South-east Asia has a new action hero hailing from Indonesia, and his name is Iko Uwais. We've already got Tony Jaa showcasing Thailand's Muay Thai, and now we've got Uwais to introduce a different brand of Silat which we have been exposed to thus far, thanks to the SEA Games but that's more like a Wushu event, which is more exhibition. It's still quite...

Extraordinary martial arts scene with a single point of view camera shot tracking the action for three and a half minutes. (H/T KakapoJayne for the link!)

If the balletic and elegant fighting styles of Jackie Chan and Jet Li are the tap and swing of the martial arts world, then Tony Jaa and his Thai cohorts are practicing the Lambada. Jaa, who rose to international popularity in 2005 with Ong Bak, introduced the mainstream to the brutal and direct art of [...]

Ong-Bak 2: The Beginning opened for a limited theatrical release in the U.S. last weekend, giving fans there the chance to see Ong-Bak 2 as it should be seen -- on a big screen in a cinema. It earned $26,500 , which Kung Fu Cinema compares to Magnolia's U.S. release of the first Ong-Bak in 2005. The English dubbed version was released in 387 and it earned $1.3 million on its opening weekend. This time...

Let's get this out of the way right now: Ong Bak 2: The Beginning really has nothing to do with Ong Bak aside from the fact that Tony Jaa is in it. Sure, you'll hear claims that he's playing the earlier incarnation of his character from the original, but that won't mean anything to you. Because you don't care about a plot. You came to see Tony Jaa fight a crocodile. Actually, Tony Jaa doesn't get to...
