I call foul! That was blatently a fusion of "Enter the Dragon" and the "Karate Kid". The Karate Kid is NOT a Kung Fu movie.
It's a Karate Movie

Actually the first bit was the Jackie Chan classic Drunken Master. But yeah the foul on Enter the Dragon for sure.

Thanks, Glad it didn't take as long as they first said, but I did pay extra to get it done now. Pooh. I hate no money, I hate 'puter more.

Quote:Actually you did pretty well, Kung Fu movies are pretty much all based around the Journey story type, specifically the journey of the young man (in this respect Star Wars is just like a Kung Fu Movie) or the Hero's Journey.

Your's had a little of both, the Young man's journey as the guy who goes out, meets a master and learns the art before returning home (for a pure young mans journey the master would have needed to be killed by the villian and the young man would have to take revenge).
The Hero's journey is where he fights the great evil, he hasn't been personally wronged as he would be in the young mans story, though sometimes they'll add in an element of that to help the Hero through the final trial "You remember your dog, fluffy?"
"You killed Fluffy! I shall avenge you Fluffy!!!".
Anyway, the Hero fights for great justice, and in the end he leaves and continues his journey to fight for justice elsewhere.
So really your story had it all, I just felt like being obnoxious.
