It's one of my favorite movies too (not the dialogue, just the Kenpo stuff and the fact that Mr. Parker worked on it also). It's interesting how many actors who are famous now were in it as well.....anyway, the weird thing is, I saw it in the theatre when it first came out (I was in college on a date with some guy) and then years later, when I enrolled in a Kenpo school & saw a picture of Mr. Speakman I told my fellow students, "I've seen a movie with that guy in it. Who is he?" Boy, did I get an earful.....so maybe seeing that film years ago was foreshadowing the future.....;D
Hey Gin-Gin, one of my favorite lines from the movie - when kim talks about enrolling jeff in a kenpo school and the father says - "not one of those hippie schools????" I just roll on the floor! I also saw the movie before i started kenpo and i still remember thinking it looked mighty awesome! Especially when he beats the couch up with the sticks! I've often had furniture i wanted to do that to.

Peace,

Kenpo Mama :ultracool

You're right, Kenpo Mama--how could I forget the "it's not one of those hippie schools is it" line? It's a classic, and still cracks me up!! :rofl:

If anyone has a VCR with a S plug & in the back of their video and sound card they can hook up the VCR to the computer and download the movie to HD and then burn it to the DVD Recorder.

Things you need on PC ( I maybe missing somethings here but it will get the thoughts flowing lol)
  • DVD Recorder
  • 128 MB Video Card with S Video Plug
  • Surround Sound Card
  • DVD Recording Software
  • 100 MB Storage Space to place Movie on HD

I have a VHS DVD Recorder. That is the way I have converted all of my Kenpo seminars of Mr. Parker so they are perserved.

This may be obvious but before anyone wastes an afternoon....that's svideo in not svideo out! Lots of video cards have svideo out (so you can watch stuff thats on your computer on your TV) but only more expensive ones have svideo in that lets you do video capture, such as nVidia VIVO cards.

I've recorded the form into a .mmv file. It's around 1.2MB so the quality is not that good but good enough so you can study the form. If anyone has a suggestion on how to upload and share the file....

There are 3 ways.

1. Contact Kaith Rustaz and see if he has a place here on MT

2. Start an email list for anyone that would liek a copy.

3. Post it on a webpage.

At worst you can send it to me and i could post it on my site and ,make it downloadble.

I think it should be made available as a downloadable file here on MT. That would rock!!

Just sent the file to Rob Broad. I suppose you should expect the link.

Note that you have to increase the brightness to see clearly. Sorry guys, it is from an old videotape, had to keep the size low.... don't shoot me!

Sapper6 - If this doesn't work, we'll do that transfer.

Excellent. Thank you.

You know, I just realized that I have the Perfect Weapon and I could have made that clip as well.

I might try since yours has the lines in it. I'll post it if I'm successful.

Thank you to Olethros, we are all very appreciative of your work.
Yes, thank you. If I can make one that is brighter I'll post it for everyone. I think my tape has only been watched 2-3 times. I'm not sure what shape it is in but I did buy it new.

I guess I could put it on DVD before it gets too bad?
