![]() This system contains a practical, step-by-step, approach to learning the foundational principles of the internal martial arts which lead to the development of refined levels of skill. The twelve animals are Bear, Eagle, Snake, Tiger, Dragon, Chicken, Horse, Swallow, Sparrowhawk, Monkey, Turtle, and Phoenix.ĭesigned to develop a foundation of strength, balance, coordination, and flexibility in the health and martial arts context. The five elements are Splitting, Drilling, Pounding, Crossing, and Crushing. Xing Yi Quan is based on five elements and twelve animal forms. It is generally performed faster than Tai ji chuan and has shorter forms. The idea in Xing Yi chuan is to drive through the opponent in a series of wave like, explosive bursts. There is some passable action of course and maybe Dragon Chen has some promise, but ‘Kung Fu Fighter’ is the cinematic equivalent of watching a used corn plaster floating in a muddy canal.Where Xing Yi chuan differs from its sister arts is that there is a greater emphasis on linear movements and advancing, as opposed to, the greater degree of circular, evasive maneuvering found in Tai ji chuan and Ba Gua zhang. The story is the classic cautionary tale of fame, temptation and redemption with chunks of ‘True Game of Death’, ‘A Star Is Born’ and ‘Rocky’ and a hundred other disparate flicks egregiously blended together. Full of overacting, badly-dubbed, cocky Gwailos, cartoonish femme fatales (the one here turns the simple act of walking into some weird, hip-swerving performance art and spouts those ludicrously ‘sexy’ English lines like ‘Hi’ in a panting way that verges on an asthma attack), it’s almost a surprise that Bruce Li doesn’t pop up. ‘Kung Fu Fighter’ is like a throwback to the Bruceploitation sub-genre of the 70s though. Dragon Chen is an able everyman in the lead role and it is the degree of empathy we are willing to invest in him that excuses some of the giant flaws in the rest of the film. It has so often seemed that there is a preference for good looking action heroes whose lack of fight skills are CGI’d away while the more ordinary stars who could actually land a punch, fester by the side. What is to be commended here – and this might seem like a desperate clutching of straws here – is the appearance of a leading man who is not immaculately groomed with strident eyebrows and million-dollar cheekbones. ![]() ![]() Although the kung fu genre doesn’t always feel the need for a polished storyline and gently-nuanced characters, ‘Kung Fu Fighter’ is particularly gauche and, despite modest running time, quickly saps the goodwill of viewers just eager to watch some solid fight scenes. Newcomer Dragon Chen takes credit as both star, director and fight choreographer so apportioning blame with this clumsy action film shouldn’t take long. Unfortunately for the fledgling star though, a tragic episode from his past – which he served seven years in jail for – comes to light and Li Qi is especially keen on revenge when it is discovered that this is linked to his brother’s death. Thanks to his dedication, Cheng moves up to the role of stuntman which means not only has he ascended another rung of the ladder, but he can also afford an apartment for himself and his long-time fiancée. ![]() Cheng Feng earns a meagre wage as a human punching bag for action star Li Qi, but dreams of one day being a star himself. ![]()

![]() They found out when the van was smoking during one of Lewis' driving shifts, it was dark out and none of them could see the smoke trail but they smelt it, all of them except Lewis. He can't return the kiss even if he looked human.Īrthur wonders if Lewis can feel in the same way he could as a human. Lewis has always been too warm or too cold in his ghostly state and when Vivi tries to lean in and kiss him, Lewis' heart turns blue. They're in the back of the van, the door's opened, they're cuddling on the little bench or trying to at least. He's half tempted to forget about the book, this was more Vivi's thing than anything and who knows if it actually works. He doesn't try it immediately but he practices drawing the runes, the perfect circles. It was the thing that transcended to the afterlife after all. Lewis' locket was the only thing he could think of. One must place an item of importance of the deceased's in the middle of the norhernmost circle." " While a body or a spirit highers the chances of success, it is not needed. He was worried he might've had to dig up Lewis' body or even get Lewis in on it but all he really needed was Lewis' locket. " To revive a person the killer must sacrifice his soul. All you need to do is say a few words, draw a circle and a few squiggly marks and… Easier seeing as how Lewis hasn't moved on. Its surprisingly easy to revive a dead person. He doesn't think it fully worked but they don't ask for the laptop back or his sudden interest in books so he thinks its a win. It takes about two and a half months to translate all the relevant pages in between solving mysteries and trying not to act suspicious. Or maybe Mystery would be able to tell what it says, they still don't know the extent of the demon fox's knowledge.Īrthur pockets the book into his vest and when the mystery is solved, all the zombies properly dead and the insane warlock sent to jail he does not tell Vivi, Mystery or Lewis, just hogs the laptop whenever he can. Vivi would probably be able to translate it given a few days, Arthur thinks as he flips through the pages, she's good with dead languages. The words on the page are some kind of ancient rune. On the next page the man is human, healthy, cheeks rosy and eyes open. There's a picture of decaying man, laid in magic circles, maggots crawling over rotting skin. " Revival Spell" It says in bold, black cursive. Vivi would have a field day with the book. He only meant to flip through it for potential clues and put it back except when he flips through it, he pauses on a page. There's warnings tattooed against every page in bold. It's an old book, dusty and filled with foreign words and gore-y images. He finds a spell book in a creepy old place they're investigating because the owner was spotted digging up graves. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
![]() ![]() Back to the ring as Rob misses Rolling Thunder and lands on a ladder, allowing Lashley to slow-climb the ladder. They’re the only ones falling for his melodramatic selling these days, then. Hardy follows him up there and brings him down with a superplex from the ladder, prompting the referees to make the fake “X” sign and signal his exit from the match. That leaves Finlay alone, until Flair clobbers him and makes the first climb for the contract. Shelton gets another ladder and beats on Finlay with it, then lays it on the top rope and runs up it for a spectacular dive onto everyone else. Won’t the black-on-black violence ever stop? Matt goes for the ladder, but RVD splats him with a dive, which wasn’t a smart move for either guy. Press-slam for Flair, but Benjamin gives him the bad-ass high kick to take him out. Big brawl to start and Lashley pounds everyone down, then hits Finlay with a corner clothesline. Carlito & Masters, chokeslam - pin, 6:38, *1/2) Short and fairly inoffensive. Masters attempts to save by coming off the top, but hits Carlito by mistake, and the chokeslam finishes Carlito. The heels stall while Kane sits up, allowing him to make the comeback and try a chokeslam. Show breaks that up and gets Snake Eyes on Masters, while Carlito gets the backcracker on Kane and everything breaks down. Sideslam for Carlito and he goes up, but lands in a Masterlock. However, fate proves fickle, as the heels flapjack Show after a trip to an exposed turnbuckle, and then he quickly tags Kane back in again. Kane follows with a flying clothesline to the floor, obviously having eaten his Wheaties that morning. Crowd is actually behind Carlito, however, as Show press-slams both heels and clears the ring by tossing them both. Show beats on Masters and slams him, but Masters brings Carlito in, in an act of futility. Oh, great, now he’s doing the metaphors too. JR notes it’s like getting hit in the head with a bowling ball and Show’s hands are like skillets. Masters overpowers Kane to start, but gets dropkicked as a result. – Opening match, RAW World tag titles: Kane & Big Show v. ![]() Whereas VII was a bummer because the sport was in a slump and no one was showing it closed-circuit in Edmonton (and we didn’t have pay-per-view in Canada yet!), this one was just a show that didn’t appeal to me and didn’t seem to have any matches on it that were worth taking the day off work and paying the $20 to catch it at the movie theater. I think this show, however, encapsulates what my fandom has turned into, as it was the first Wrestlemania where I missed the show and didn’t really panic about it. – I’ve tried to start this one a couple of times, so we’ll see what happens this time around. ![]() They are re-published “as is” with relative commentary from when they were written.
