I watched Bodyguards and Assassins - not sure I can really describe it as a kung fu movie but it had some good action pieces, Donnie Yen as ever brilliant. As a film though I really enjoyed it - great piece of HK cinema.

I've not got as many as Finsbury - impressive - but I've mainly got Jackie or Sammo films or a few others if they've got good extras or a Bey Logan commentary. I prefer contemporary settings, but there's a few classics I bend the rules for!
Way of the Dragon
Game of Death
Project A
Project A II
Armour of God
Dragons Forever
Wheels on Meals
Winners & Sinners
Twinkle Twinkle Lucky Stars
My Lucky Stars
Police Story
Police Story II
New Police Story

The Master

Iron Monkey
Skinny Tiger Fatty Dragon
Encounters of the Spooky Kind
Purple Storm
Zu Warriors
City Hunter
Eastern Condors
Ninja in the Dragon's Den
Drive (not technically HKL, but they went on to be HKL)
I think Cine Asia/Dragon Dynasty are proving to be a good label at the moment. I picked up Fist of Legend and Champion the other day and both feature a Bey Logan commentary (and Impact's Mike Leeder on Champion) and loads of extras on their 2-disc special editions.
I need to watch a few more kung-fu flicks, but I've been addicted to Lost Planet 2 and Red Dead Redemption the last few weeks!
