This was a real treat The 36th Chamber of Shaulin was on e of the first of many I would see from this company. And watching Gordon Lui especially in his Shaw brothers era was just amazing. His face and portrayal of a Shaulin monk was always convincing. He's just as interesting in real life when giving his interviews.
Legend. The 36th Chamber Of Shaolin is hands down my ultimate favorite Martial Arts film of all time. (and not because I’m a WuTang Clan fan) It really goes deep into the teaching to control mind and body through lessons of discipline and patience. True Masterpiece.
I first became aware of Gordon Liu during an afternoon "chop socky" airing of Return of Master Killer. In late 90s I finally got a VHS copy of 36th Chamber and have loved him ever since. I'm not a Tarantino fan, but I watched Kill Bill just for him.
@@user-vb2pm1dy6u I'm trying to research.. on and off for a year already. How do that happen? He got hit in the head? He suffered a stroke? He's so healthy I just don't get it? Could it be that the medicine that he's taking or the vitamin that he's taking? Or I don't know the Kung Fu that he's studying? It's a mystery.. I just don't believe he can actually turn out to be like that and only 3 day after the incident..
@@user-vb2pm1dy6u doing well mean that I wish he walked again. 💙 I've been tear lately me and my family watching Gordon TVB drama.. from Mystery of the twin sword to Perish in the name of Love portraying a bad person, and being the loving father and Net Deception.. so much stuff happened to TVB actor and actress. Felix lost his wife. Chan Wing Chun lost his, many more...
@@johnnyjanny496 I'm sorry! I have dates wrong! Thought Gordon had stroke "before" Kill Bill 1, recovered, and then went on to act in Kill Bill 1. My honest mistake! After going on google, i read and realized that, 7-To-8 Yr's later, he's still in wheelchair, but speech not so slurred. 😔Sigh😔 Thank you for the info!!
This lady didn't give his audience credit. We KNOW and LOVE Gordon's films. Sure....he may not be as big as Jackie in the West. But true fans ...and there are many....support him and his family and their careers....and have been doing so for a long time
This British interviewer doesn't know anything about how Asian kung fu movies played a formidable role in the entertainment lives of Black and Latino youth during the 80's. In the 5 boroughs of NYC, Saturday afternoon at 3pm showed empty streets. This was during the early 80's when most of us rushed upstairs to watch these movies. Many of those same movies were played in seedy movie theaters on 42nd street where we could go as teenagers (12 thru 18) and pay to see an R rated movie with no questions asked. We were born in the late 60's and early 70's but we knew who Gordon Lui was. If we didn't know his real name, we at least knew him as "The Master Killer" or "the dude from 36 Chambers". She should do her research. This guy is well known among a certain age demographic in the US and has experienced a resurgence in thru hip hop culture thanks to the WuTang Clan.
@@errolthomas9426 Yep!! You know it. That was the original flick that came after the Green Hornet (Cato/Bruce Lee) that kicked off the martial arts craze in the hood!
My best all time movie with Gordon was 36th chambers of Shaolin a master class of traditional martial arts and had me on the floor with laughter when he was headbutting concrete blocks. I saw this flick when it first came out back in the days of VHS "the good times" 😊 It's so heartbreaking and a shock to see him now and I have to big up Amy Fan for looking after him whilst in recovery. Eva Fung refused to return almost 2mil yuan (S$396,000) worth of financial assets that he had entrusted to her, forcing him to bring the matter to court. Fortunately, Eva eventually came to her senses and returned everything with interest. She should be locked up for attempted theft and throw away the key as for his ex wife that's another story, don't get me started. I wish him well in 2022 👊🏿😎
I love gordon Liu he is a legend but the best pai Mei IMO is Lo Leih! (who gordon fought In fists of the white lotus and was also in executioners from shaolin)
She's not ignorant. She's stating facts. Kung Fu movies are and have been dying. At the end of the day, the appreciation for Kung Fu movies is tied in with the culture. In this generation, kids prefer CGIs and sci-fi over martial arts. I don't think I can name one successful good martial arts/Kung Fu movie in the modern era. Ip Man was a one-off.

Knowing this happened to Gordon, broke me down. Seriously. Sincerely.
❤Love ya' Gordon!!❤
Don't worry he's a warrior.. he's going to be fine.. 💪💙

@@johnnyjanny496 Far as i know, Gordon had suffered a stroke. Not quite sure what or how stroke was caused. But he's doing well, now. 🙏🏽🙏🏽

His portrayal of Pei Mai is flawless!
Hands down the best kung fu actor
Ce-fu🎉
He is the best. Awesome.
One of my all time action heroes. Gordon Liu is one of the greatest of all time!.

I know Gordon Liu I seen alot of his movies when I was a kid, I was excited to see him in Kill Bill as the old man master this time around
Man was a beast in the 36th Chamber

This may have saved a lot loves in New York. I grew up in the suburbs of New York. Master Killer is a big part of our youth.

Let's not forget that it all started with 5 Fingers of Death aka King Boxer on Wednesday March 21, 1973

Gordon is the best Pai Mei..in my opinion
I love gordon Liu he is a legend but the best pai Mei IMO is Lo Leih! (who gordon fought In fists of the white lotus and was also in executioners from shaolin)
When he started speaking I shit my pants and punched the wall.
Gordon Liu 👏👏👏👍
Gordon Liu = Bad Ass.
So he’s not going to talk about how he was fighting pai mei in 70s movies and now he is pai mei?
You will think i'm crazy for saying this but i rate Gordon Lui above Bruce Lee
Bruce was still young. If he would of LIVED. Things might of changed. Different kind of movies and roles.
Depends on what you mean by “rate above” Bruce Lee was way more influential and iconic than any Hong Kong actor. That’s just fact.
Bruce was modern KF, Gordon is OK for classic KF, borh are Kings.Bruce was by far more pop.
As far as who makes better movies?
@@willthomas2310 Lee opened the doors...the rest came AFTER.
San Te😭
For years I wondered is Gordon Liu a real martial artist, or just a actor
Gordon liu was the second biggest hong Kong star after Bruce Lee not Jackie chan
So was Fu Sheng
Up to the mid 80s yes but Jackie took the lead afterwards
Gordon had stroke shortly after Kill Bill.
Buddha is merciful
Actually he should know hes the reason for the WU TANG CLAN
This reporter could not be more ignorant. The Kung Fu movies were really big in a lot of places.
