Guys! If you want to see the best fights and kung fu action watch the first part. The fight here at the end is 95% unchoreographed so don't expect it to look good. Please watch the whole movie (there are three parts). In the end we goofed off a whole lot.

Here is our huge semester three/final project. We were planning this since the first semester. It's filmed in the Dari dialect of Persian also known as Farsi, which is spoken in Iran, Afghanistan and Tajikistan. The Dari dialect is from Kabul, Afghanistan but spoken almost all over the country along with Pashtu, the other official language of Afghanistan.

This project is important to me because it had the three things I love most: Islam, Kung Fu and languages. I trained Baktash (the airman with red hair) in Lien Bu Quan for about three months and I trained Samad (the bald airman) in Xingyi for about one month; he also has wrestling and Krav Maga skills. I'm using various longfist styles (Northern Shaolin, Fanzi, Tongbei, Pigua) and Yang & Guang Ping Yang Taiji. There are some Hung Gar techniques here and there.

For real kung fu movie fans, there is a lot of authentic kung fu movie music here! And the choreography is in a new school - old school fusion. I mean, using northern style mostly and tradtional movements but in faster speed than the older movies which are two-beat and use mostly southern styles. There isn't a lot of work with using traditional kung fu in fast speed, because modern films always use "street fighting" instead.

  • everything was ok but the indian song is ruin it

  • that sounds awesome! it sounds like a great setting. you can be sure i'll be out to buy it when it comes out!

  • You probably guess the break-out of the intensive and turbulent romance between the hero and a hot warrior girl against whom he fought in the Battle of Talas.

  • One of the main episodes of the novel will be actually a chapter when the main male hero who was an aid-de-camp of the Arabic general is fleeing the Caliphate after beheading of his commander to "Hindu-Shahi" governed Kabulistan and finds the main female heroin of the story --- the daughter of the Japanese aid-de-camp of Gao Xiangji (who himself was not a native Chinese but a son of a Korean mercenary) after the Gao's beheading by the Emperor (despite quelling the An-Lushan Rebellion by Gao).

  • The first 4 caliphs made base for Islamic law but also some of the later caliphs, especially the Abbasids, made much development of Islamic Civilization. As a part of my plan to write the first Wuxia novel in Poland, I'm currenlty studying some history of C&E Asia 1st half of 2nd century AH about the time when the rebellion of Abu Muslim broke out and Abbasids came to power. Now, I'm focusing on finding some historical facts about the Chinese-Arab battle of Talas and general Gao Xiangji.

  • also, if you are hinting that because Mahmud of Ghazni's era was 300+ years since the arrival of islam, just think of what has happening to other religions and kings associated with them after 300 years; you'll see that nothing was "close" to the original tenets of the faith. leaders do bad things for power whether they are religious or not. except for a one or two, the muslim leaders became corrupt, money, and power-hungry after the 4th caliph.

  • i agree with you, because we both conclude that the actions of muslims in later days have nothing to do with islam, even if they say it does.

    obviously you have learned quite a lot of stuff. but when you meet someone who automatically hates you because of your look or your faith (such as lamas who meet a muslim, or a chinese who meets a japanese), you can do very little to change their mind except in your actions. thanks for sharing some knowledge with me i appreciate it.
