    The Protector

    I watched the Pirated version and i was completely stunned...in a good way. For those that don't know its another Muay Thai Fighting moving starringTony Jaa from Ong Bak.

    I would have to say that this is better than Ong Bak in that the fighting is more intense but lacks a solid story. ahh so many broken bones lol. I loved the small cameo by jackie chan.

          Yes, all Asians look a like...which is why Asians have such a hard time comprehending as to why it is that Caucasian people find the House of Mirrors so entertaining.

            Yeah, he is looking for elephants in all the movies.

            How could I forget.

            I know the Thai title...I don't know the English one.

              No, in Ong Bak he was looking for the head of one of his primitive Gods or something. It might have been an elephant...since those primitive Chinks worship anything. I'm looking forward to his new movie though: Tony Jaa in Chirst Warrior.

                No, Ong Bak is different.

                The one I am talking about is tom yun goong (sp?)

                      Small bump, but after seeing this movie for free, I have to say that the small action series involving a burning temple ground with spinklers made me really really want to play tekkan. Fuccen Fast Eddie was in there goddamnit.

                        After reading the above post, I can confirm that it indeed is the movie I was talking about.

                          I had already seen most of the fight scenes to this movie prior to knowing that they were releasing it in the US...I'd like to point out that Muay Thai vs. Capoiera (sp?) = JESUS CHRIST GODLY

                            I'm so over Muy Thai. Jesus Christ, it's overblown where I am with kids signing up liek whoah for lessons at private studios. Ong Bak wasn't even that GOOD, some of the stunt work was impressive.

                            Seriously, I would love it if Tony Jaa were to actually make a film where he's not looking for something of his that's been stolen. But I hear in the next one, he's looking for watch cogs that his elder god elephant father gave him. And they're magical.

                              Makl whether there was a coherent plotline or not, some of the stunt work in Tom Yun Goong make opther martial arts movies look like ****. Actually, I went to my friend's house and watched the original version of TYG and Fearless w/ Jet Li on his plasma. All four of us came to the conclusion that Tony Jaa probably could whip Jet Li's ass. TYG is THAT GOOD.

                              Also, the temple scene with the Capoiera Guy is one of the best scenes in the movie. That guy could probably kick Eddie's ass too. XD
