  Kung Fu Theater - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is not known who coined these names or who began using them first, but they are universally associated with the low budget kung fu and ninja films produced by studios such as the Shaw Brothers.
The grunts and "hmmppphs" and "hm hm hmmm..." as well as the unusual pauses and voice patterns are almost trademark to kung fu movies.
For all their shortcomings in filmmaking, kung fu movies are generally fondly remembered as a source of fun escapist entertainment.

 Kung Fu Chaos Review for Xbox - Gaming Age
Kung Fu Chaos has a single player mode, which you have to complete a series of goals to move along in the story mode; goals such as: defeat the ninjas, defeat the boss character, punch the wooden dummy, and so on.
Also one of the unique features in Kung Fu Chaos is the ability to be able to watch your multiplayer fights in a cinematic replay, giving the feeling of a cheesy Kung Fu movie.
Now no Kung Fu game would be complete with combos, Kung Fu Chaos is no exception; however just like the rest of the gameplay in KFC, the combos feel quite a bit too simplistic.

 Jon Zaremba - The Importance of Kung Fu Movies
Despite the subtle doses of communistic propaganda thrown into the scripts by some studios, i have found kung fu movies to be one of the greatest sources of inspiration available onscreen.
Kung fu movies are exceptional because they are based on all seven principles, and they exercise these principles with zeal.
In a good kung fu movie (of course not all of them are good), each fight scene represents a different stage in the hero's development.

 Men of the Hour (1977)
The plot is better than your standard indie kung fu revenger flick with director Chan Ming-wa attempting to raise the bar on the acting and dramatics, but it's still not good enough to replace solid kung fu action, something dearly missing here.

 Writing Kung Fu (1979)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
I haven't seen "Writing Kung Fu" in years--not since it ran on the USA Network's Kung Fu Theater, in fact--but I remember it as a fairly interesting genre picture.
John Chang of "Snake in the Monkey's Shadow" stars as a wimpy schoolteacher who has to learn the martial arts to defend his village against a wandering Vietnamese killer, who plays(and fights with) a flute.
There's a dash of the obligatory lame slapstick, of course(every kung-fu movie has it), but the tone of "Writing Kung Fu" is pretty grim for the most part.

 Cowboys and Kung Fu | Theater | The Stranger, Seattle's Only Newspaper
As the FIrst act of Cymbeline nears intermission, a couple of cowboys stride up to a microphone: one pulls out a mandolin, a cowgirl appears with an acoustic guitar, and they launch into a lovely, rousing cowboy ballad.
Most theater aspires to create a coherent world in which all the elements combine harmoniously to create a portrait of something we consider reality--if not the reality we experience in our daily lives, a reality that has an internal set of rules and operates by them.
But another approach argues that coherence is arbitrary, that reality doesn't operate by such rules and so neither should art.
