Enter the Dragon, underground fight scene. FMA been in movies a LONG time.

Game of death also had escrima in it.

Heck, even the sticks themselves can be deadly. Rattan sticks can easily break bones, crack skulls or perform various chokes, let alone heavy metal batons.

Xanatos712 I agree, though rattan sticks dont break bones, they actually crush bones which makes healing longer since the bones are not just broken they're pulverized into many pieces

ZERO LINE That should be common sense, like practicing kendo when you can also use similar techniques with baseball bats and maybe machetes. And the sticks her like a motherfucker. Not from experience, but from seeing shattered bones, and I ain't shattering mine.

Xanatos712 Nightsticks are simply tonfas coupled as escrima sticks. Only... you may have to be a cop to use one.

ahaha

People don't realize, when they train for movies, they don't do it like regular people do who only do it for 1 hour a week maybe 3. They will do huge crash courses for months doing it for 8 hours a day.

brucenatelee krav maga pulled from many different styles. It's essentially combat mma.

***** you have no idea what your talking about

***** "..FMA videos asking the same questions and making the same stupid remarks." your talking about yourself here, again you have no idea what the fuck your talking about.

Theex pendable leo gaje of pekiti tirsia does not support the mix of martial arts because it grew from someone's consciousness. However, he support the idea of evolving any martial art itself according to every individual consciousness without borrowing techniques from other arts. For example the Gracie's created bjj because it is very comforting to the founder to learn how to exploit someone's weakness to the ground. Leo's Ptk had help new generation of tuhons translate weapons based systems to punches(although rarely), elbows, knees, kick techniques due to the idea of exploiting someone's angles of attack and distance depending on what weapon you are using even empty hands ;). In conclusion, it is more about formulating a new technique by using one art plus the practitioners consciousness, not borrowing techniques from others.

Theex pendable I had to applaud to ***** though for a smart comeback. The "watered" down is basically means , according to these issues of your comments, giving up the FMA people's consciousness to someone else consciousness like the FMA people's consciousness to yours. They are not stupid. They have practices for a reason--to validate techniques+to throw away or use it later the technique that have less credibility pro tempore. These comments of yours just helped me made a conclusion that in order to please your consciousness we are supposed to not have any answers to you less credible questions until you ran out of redundant words that you are forced to comment "you have no idea what you're talking about". here's the deal make a video that supports the issue that you always address to the every FUCKING FMA videos you trolled. Come on, smart man, if you're smart make a video at least for one day after I type these comments.

ajb7345 well first off, none of todays fma's like ptk, eskrima, arnis, sikaran etc are heavily based off other martial arts like spanish fencing or boxing, the only fma that isn't watered down is silat and kuntaw which is practiced by muslims down in mindinao and have nothing to dowith the rest of the philippines also I don't need to address my issue, because someone already did that for me filipinofightingsecretslive.com/2009/08/26/the-fallacy-of-empty-handed-fma/

John doe You're that squeamish? It's fucking dope!

Your rigth,. Her in philipine previous years ago filipino fithers use that ticneck to figth till death... But now we use kali for arts and for self defens in worst senary.. but kali is promoting for now as art not to figth..

LOL i would be revealing my age by answering this question but try looking for a Filipino movie called "Kamagong" :)

serenity0324 its all good I'm 26 and I know that movie, age is just a number my friend

1. Mano-Mano 3: Arnis- The Lost Art 2. Arnis- The Sticks of Death

Plots are not that good but they showed various moves in Arnis.

Eskrimadors Documentary

you do know that fma is very wide spread right ? from law enforcement's like the dea,the fbi , police , even in the military not to mention there's alot of the martial arts choreographers in Hollywood practices fma and its just not in Hollywood but all over the world.

Maybe the fight choreographer stated that they were teaching the actors FMA.

when you hear Jeff Imada, Dan Inosanto or Inosanto academy etc, you know it is Kali Eskrima...they are top choreographers who promote Filipino martial art....
