On this Fight Scene Friday™, we have the latest short film from the Andy Long Stunt team! Here is the synopsis:
Two Kung Fu film fans, Andy and Sefa, have travelled to Hong Kong to visit the birthplace of Martial Arts Films. They have managed to catch up with HK stuntman Rodney Wong on one of his last nights before moving forever to Australia. Rodney has lost fate in the future of HK action cinema but Andy & Sefa will try to convince him how important it is for the young generation of HK Stuntmen to carry on the legacy of Martial Arts films made in Hong Kong.
This is a nice tribute/homage to 80s Hong Kong action movies, and the music from Above The Law/Righting Wrongs (1986) is a nice touch, too! Check it out! It is really good to see there are people out there trying to keep the 80s Hong Kong fight choreography style alive.
This week's Fight Scene Friday™ scene is test fight featuring the Reel Deal Action crew along with Andy Long! Really awesome choreography in this one, and I appreciate the classic music from In The Line Of Duty 4 (1989) being used in this as well! Check it out:
For this week's Fight Scene Friday™, we see the time Andy Long met Jay in America. Let's just say, their plans don't end up working out... This was one of my favorite scenes back in the day; it was so funny to me. The action was great as well, with lots of creative choreography and great comedy. Check it out!
It's Fight Scene Friday™, and this week's fight scene is an homage to Jackie Chan's Armor Of God (1986) from Andy Long and the Mag-Fighters crew! I really enjoyed this one! That 80s Jackie Chan Hong Kong flavor is in full effect here. There's even a little nod to Wheels On Meals (1984). I of course appreciate the music from Armor Of God used here as well. I wish movies like this were still made nowadays. Anyways, check it out!
It's Fight Scene Friday™, and this week's scene is what happened when Dennis Lafond met the Mag-Fighters! Yep, Dennis and Andy Long get it on in this one! Nice little tribute to the King of Pop as well. Check it out, not only is the action great, it's funny as well!
This week's Fight Scene Friday™ scene is a nice little scene directed and choreographed by Andy Long! The scene was co-choreographed by Gunnar Heiss. A lot of classic music in this one, my favorite being the Game Of Death theme. Check this out, it's very creative!
Check out this fight scene, on Fight Scene Friday™, featuring the Martial Club crew and Andy Long working together! This scene is a tribute to Jackie Chan, and there are many homages to Jackie's movies and fight scenes! I like how the music from Jackie's Hong Kong movies are used throughout this as well. What do you think was the craziest stunt in a Jackie Chan movie?
It's Fight Scene Friday™, and this week's scene is an homage to the awesome Hong Kong fight scenes of the 1980s! This scene is a collaboration between Mag-Fighters, Reel Deal Action and NDTeam. Andy Long is the star of this one, and he also was the director, editor, and action director of this scene. Khoi Chau is the bespectacled fellow, and Can Aydin is the 'final boss'.
Andy Long is an amazing person! He went around the world to work with the best indie/amateur stunt teams all in a quest to meet Jackie Chan and join his stunt team. You know what? He did it! He is a stuntman on CZ12 (also known as Chinese Zodiac), the third Armor Of God movie. He is the guy Jackie Chan does a spinning headscissors to in the final fight. Talk about living the dream! He is now a professional stuntman and fight choreographer.
There are a lot homages to 80s Hong Kong action cinema in this. The final fight takes place in a park seen in Police Story II. The poses Andy Long and Can Aydin have at the beginning of their fight is the same as Donnie Yen's and Michael Woods' poses at the beginning of their fight in In The Line Of Duty 4. In the outtakes, they visit the mall where the final fight scene took place in Police Story. They also visit the area where the final fight scene takes place in Flash Point. The music during the short is that classic Richard Yuen stuff, and the ending credits song is the Police Story theme sung by Jackie Chan. The final dialogue between Andy Long and Can Aydin is what Sammo Hung says to Cynthia Rothrock at the end of their fight in Shanghai/Millionaire's Express (from the German dub). Of course, the sound effects are from the 80s, too! Awesome stuff all around. Enough of my blabbering, check it out!
