When I think of Wu Xia movies, I immediately think of Shaw Brothers and the many classic they have made over the years. What I love about this genre is many things, the Swordplay, The Characters, Story lines, Setting, Costumes and much more.

Wu Xia, traditionally is a form of literature. But after high demand over the years it’s become involoved in many art forms such as Movies, Opera, Video Games and beyond. This list of 30 Wu Xia movies listed, i hope you’ll like and want to thank my friend Richard Robinson for contributing to the list. If we missed any classics out, its most probably because we honestly forgot at that time or maybe we haven’t seen all the classic Wu Xia movies so far, anyway enjoy the list and let us know what you thought in the commen box at the bottom.

This sucker might be only a minute and thirty seconds long, but it certainly packs one hell of a punch. Alan Mak and Felix Chong’s “The Lost Bladesman”, which stars Donnie Yen, Sun Li, Jiang Wen, Alex Fong Chung Sun, Andy On, Chin Siu Ho, Wang Xue Bing, and Shao Bing, has the potential to be pretty darn snazzy. Not surprisingly, I tend to flock towards anything that involves Donnie Yen in some form or fashion. The guy is, simply put, extremely badass, and I’m always down for watching him pummel his on-screen companions. From the looks of the embedded trailer, there is definitely some pummeling going on. Which is always a good thing, in my opinion. “The Lost Bladesman” slices its way into Hong Kong theaters on April 28th, 2011. Many thanks to the folks at Film Smash for posting this kick-ass little teaser. function getVideo() { var so = new SWFObject("http://cdn.
