Actually mine has a barely audible "click click" as I assume a Modified Weaver stance & pull the hammer back on my Sig... :mp5:

I look around with a dumb look on my face and ask, "what's going on here?"

Crane stance (Karate Kid version) is my personal favorite :D

Either that or a flying leaping rolling mess that involves yelling "Drunken monkey!"

I tend to do a highly modified Drunken Master and then go 'Muad'Dib!' [attack] then, almost to myself, I say, 'my name is a killing word'.

Mostly, fighting the advanced belts, I just fall down and say, 'Turtle-do'.

Oooo, a good whooo or waaaaaa demands a couple really fast flowering hand techniques, using say... crane beaks or something followed by a ridiculously low fighting stance.

I would reccomend for full effect to follow up with some tough sounding phrase like "Let's see how you stand up to my Eagle's claw!!" or the obligatory "You killed my master!!!" Use your own or take one from your favorite movie!

Then naturally, you must turn your forward guarding hand and wave towards yourself with your fingers and give them the c'mere sign.

I watch too many kf movies. :rolleyes:

Of course the lips should move independantly of the words comming out in traditional dub fashion.

What about the obligatory wipe of the nostral with the thumb followed by a lift of the trousers of the front leg in true bruce lee style!!

Oh thats true bad **** stance that is.

If someone faced me with one of these rediculous stances, i would just tell 'em "well, I wouldn't even notice, 'cause I'd be too busy lookin' good"

Along with some voice that totally doesn't fit the person or sometimes followed by a high pitched "ooooh weee-ooooh-weee-oooh" (the Kung-Pow girl)

Yes that's my traditonal stance until the opponent (aka "the guy who's going to beat my **** into next week because I was stupid enough to even think of pissing him off enough to warrant the title 'my asskicker' ") makes his first move and then I cower and whimper "don't hit me"

If you can do Trinity's hover prior to your front kick, that looks really impressive. ... Actually, if you can already hover you probably don't need to worry about the fight at all!


While you're moving your lips out of synch with your high-pitched Chinese-accented words, be sure to also create a sound effect with every movement you make, no matter how small.
