Jackie Chan's about as far as I can go into martial arts movies as his humor helps break the monotony of all the (few) stories. My favorites of his: Police Story II and Legend of Drunken Master.

Also, I wouldn't classify Attack the Gas Station as martial arts. It has some fighting in it but that is clearly not the focus of it.

One movie I want to see again is Fighter in the Wind. It has some really good fighting through the second half and a pretty decent story.

the original drunken master is farrrr better then the remake

enter the dragon [bruce lee]
the way of the dragon [bruce lee]
shaolin temple [jet li]

[Interstate]

the original drunken master is farrrr better then the remake

+ 1, the original is so much better than the remake.

Wheels On Meals (has Sammo Hung in it) is awesome.

I don't watch many martial arts films but this series is infallible.

Kung Pow :p

Police Story 1
Enter the Dragon
Jackie Chan's First Strike (although this had an espionage-themed storyline)

Actually, most Jackie Chan films are cool. Jet Li is also pretty awesome, Unleashed is a great movie.

Btw, did anyone ever watch Sammo Hung's show 'Martial Law'? Now that was legendary.

Riki-Oh, obviously.

The only martial arts films I've seen all the way through would probably be Q. Tarantino's Kill Bill which was heavily influenced by Kung-Fu films.

I want to see some Bruce Lee movies.

Anything by Bruce Lee, I can't stand Jet Li's movies he thinks he can defy gravity N shi.t F.uck that! At least with Bruce Lee you get real martial arts and its not like hey I can run up a F.ucking vertical tree

[Permanent Solution]

I love martial arts movies. I own most Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and Jet Li films, and a smattering of other more diverse works. It's too bad the storyline is so often the exact same in them (a notable exception is Jet Li's latest stuff).Anything by Bruce Lee, I can't stand Jet Li's movies he thinks he can defy gravity N shi.t F.uck that! At least with Bruce Lee you get real martial arts and its not like hey I can run up a F.ucking vertical tree
You are obviously unfamiliar with traditional kung fu cinema style =\
