[QUOTE="Insight, post: 5968899, member: 11437"] Hello all, I am working on a campaign idea and I'd like to draw upon the various interests of the people here to add to my own research into the "Gun Fu" style of movies (and other media sources, where applicable). I already have a list that I got from wikipedia and doing some research on imdb.com. I'd like to see what other people might come up with. My list only includes films, so other media, like TV, books, comics, manga, video games, would be helpful. My goal here is to provide my players, most of whom are not all that familiar with the genre, something for character inspiration. Here is my list so far: The “A Better Tomorrow” series – [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092263/]A Better Tomorrow (1986) - IMDb[/url] [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094357/]A Better Tomorrow II (1987) - IMDb[/url] [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098691/]A Better Tomorrow III: Love and Death in Saigon (1989) - IMDb[/url] City on Fire - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093435/]City on Fire (1987) - IMDb[/url] The Killer - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097202/]The Killer (1989) - IMDb[/url] Desperado - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112851/]Desperado (1995) - IMDb[/url] Hard Boiled - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104684/]Hard Boiled (1992) - IMDb[/url] The Replacement Killers - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120008/]The Replacement Killers (1998) - IMDb[/url] Hard Target - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107076/]Hard Target (1993) - IMDb[/url] “The Matrix” series - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0133093/]The Matrix (1999) - IMDb[/url] [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0234215/]The Matrix Reloaded (2003) - IMDb[/url] [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0242653/]The Matrix Revolutions (2003) - IMDb[/url] Bulletproof Monk - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0245803/]Bulletproof Monk (2003) - IMDb[/url] Equilibrium - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0238380/]Equilibrium (2002) - IMDb[/url] Ultraviolet - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0370032/]Ultraviolet (2006) - IMDb[/url] Kick-Ass - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1250777/]Kick-Ass (2010) - IMDb[/url] The “Supercop” Series – [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0104558/]Supercop (1992) - IMDb[/url] [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106544/]Supercop 2 (1993) - IMDb[/url] The “Mission Impossible” series – [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117060/]Mission: Impossible (1996) - IMDb[/url] [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120755/]Mission: Impossible II (2000) - IMDb[/url] [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0317919/]Mission: Impossible III (2006) - IMDb[/url] [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1229238/]Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol (2011) - IMDb[/url] Wanted - [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0493464/]Wanted (2008) - IMDb[/url] General martial arts films set in the modern day would also be good, although I would be looking for fairly "high concept" action, such as Jackie Chan films.
