		Wu xia is a very specific genre in Chinese popular culture, either in the form of fiction, comics or other visual entertainments, such as film or TV series.
		Symptomatically, unlike the fight in the wu xia genre which normally involves settling an old score or seeking valuable treasures, be it a secret script or a lost sword, that everybody is after, this fight is caused by Jen's ignorance of the jiang hu rules.
		Wu means the martial arts, while wu xia fiction emphasizes the righteous acts of the knight-warriors, who are skillful in martial arts and help the common people against evildoers.

		Wu xia films, and stories for that matter, are steeped in historical elements that have arisen out of centuries of oral and written tradition, where — to the hero — codes of righteousness, Confucius ethics and altruism transcend personal gain and love.
		Chen is the first to admit that he has no idea about any of the history of martial arts or even what wu xia is all about.
		Because Chen's father was a revered filmmaker in China, Chen had a small degree of privilege early on, accompanying his father to the film archives to see movies, the first of which was a Charlie Chaplin short.

	Bright Lights Film Journal \| History of the Hong Kong Martial Arts Film
		The unarmed combat film would not be distinguished from swordplay and armed combat films until much later, with the advent of the kung fu film in the 1970s.
		Hong Kong’s Mandarin-dominated cinema had traditionally disdained the violence of the wu xia pian (including the Cantonese Wong Fei Hong films) and prided itself on the wen yi pian, or "literary arts films," melodramas or adaptations of novels and plays.
		While earlier wu xia pian presented complex relationships and a careful causality of events, the Mandarin martial arts films emphasized sword-based combat, romance, and the fantastic, with fights erupting on the slimmest excuse.

	Cinema Hong Kong: Wu Xia (2003) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
		Unlike the kung fu movie which only appeared in the 1950's and effectively died out by 1985, wuxia films have continued to be made in some form or another uninterrupted for roughly ninety years, thus making it perhaps the most prolific costume genre in film history.
		In Cinema Hong Kong: Wu Xia, co-producer Celestial Pictures draws on their extensive collection of Shaw Brothers' film classics as the basis for a thorough examination of this popular film genre from the early silent era to the international success of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
		This move to television is one of the leading factors in explaining why wuxia films thinned out in the '80s since the continued demand for this form of entertainment was now met in a cheaper form.

		Dating back to the early days of the empire, they have had a rich culture filled with larger than life heros, but the modern concept of the Xia is perhaps only a hundred years old.
		Even today, many TV shows and movies are done about the Xia, from the current Jin Yong epics running on CCTV in China to movies like HERO and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and more shows than anyone except the greatest WuXia Pian afficondo has heard of.
		They are a heroic storytelling tradition that has captivated almost 1/3rd of the planet's population, and yet remain largely unknown outside of a handful of "Kung Fu" movies that seem to slip into North America from time to time.

		Zhang explains that they're both differing stories of sacrifice, saying that HERO is sacrificing for righteousness, for a bigger picture, and that it's more in line with the traditional thoughts of Chinese philosophy and culture.
		When you watch the final fights in American films, they're usually in a dark place, or dark warehouse, a garbage dump, car dumping ground - in other words, a dirty place where the actors are all sweaty and bloody, messy.
		Because it takes so much effort to make these films, reliable Chinese websites are reporting that Zhang has blatantly stated he will never make another wu xia film in his life.

	Martial Arts in High-Defintiion on Voom’s KUNG FU HD
		Wu Xia is considered slightly different from the martial arts film genre due its distinguishing characteristics of action scenes centered on swordplay as well as a stronger emphasis on melodrama and themes of bonding, friendship, loyalty and betrayal.
		Literally meaning "martial arts chivalry" or "martial arts heroes" from Mandarin Chinese, Wu Xia was introduced into Hollywood in 2000 with Ang Lee’s critically-acclaimed Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and served as the inspiration for the popular Matrix trilogy.
		Wu Xia Weekend airs March 17-19 on KUNG FU HD (DISH Network channel 9479).
