Gu Long's Hero Without Tears (Ying Xiong Wu Lei) came out in 1978. I have neither read the novel nor seen the movie, so I can't confirm if the latter is based on the former.Originally Posted by Temujin

3 sources I have quoted 1980, instead of 1978Originally Posted by junny
HKMDB.com - 1980
Kungfucinema.com - 1980
Dragon's Den UK - 1980
This is the front cover of the DVD cover.

The novel Hero Without Tears came out in 1978.
I see. Off course, I was referring to the year this movie came out NOT the novel.Originally Posted by junny
But thanks for the info.
I would like to update the information in Temujin's latest listing posted on 02-25-05 03:35 AM:
Updated as:Demi Gods & Semi Devils 1977 (DGSD)
The Battle Wizard 1977 (DGSD)
Cast: Danny Li Xiuxian, Lin Zhenqi
Updated as:The Book and the Sword 1980s
The Emperor and His Brother 1981 (Book and Sword)
Director: Chu Yuan
Cast: Ti Lung (Chen Jialuo), Deng Weihao, Bai Biao
Updated as:Duke of Mount Deer 1983
Tale of a Eunuch 1983 (DOMD)
Cast: Gordan Lau, Jimmy Wang Yu
It's from Gu Long's Jade Tiger [白玉老虎].The Jade Tiger 1977 (novel ??)
It's the story of the Embroiderer Thief in Book 2. The Chinese title is 绣花大盗.Clan of Amazons 1978 (Lu Xiao Feng, anyone know which book this is from ?)
Addition:
The Heroic Ones (1970)
Produced by Shaw Brothers
Cast: Ti Lung, David Chiang, Li Lili
Based on Ni Kuang's Shisan Taibao [十三太保].
TVB made a serial on the same story with its most actors in the 80s, like Ken Tong, Felix Wong, Miu Kiu-wai, etc.
Suggestion:
Perhaps it would be helpful to put the Chinese titles of the movies along with the English titles. Then, people can locate the movies in one way or the other. For movies with more than one title in either language, the English and Chinese titles will serve as confirmations for each other.
Ok, I've edited my post to add in the chinese title. Please note that the titles are in traditional chinese since I just copy and paste them from http://www.cinemasie.com/Originally Posted by HuangYushi

Is this only for movies or series too?? I heard that Bai Ma Xiao Xi Feng was also made into a series a long time ago.
Respect other people's opinions and views. If we learn how to do that than all of these fights and arguments will not occur.
I think we're only counting films.Originally Posted by Trinie

To Kidd, PJ & Huang YuShi,
Thanks for the huge addition on Gu Long movies, and the English titles of the movies. As far as getting all the Chinese titles, why we do it once we get all movies on this list, so we wont have to go back and forth.
The list has been updated and will reflect changes and addition as of 03/08/2005
Thanks for updating, Temujin. Just let (us) know when the list is considered "complete" and I'll send in the Chinese titles I have.Originally Posted by Temujin
I can't find anymore movie titles.
I guess that's the final list, unless someone can add more to what we've had so far.
OK, here it is, with titles in both English and Chinese, plus novel references as far as possible. I have added several new titles, cleaned the list up and organised it a bit with some text formatting, hopefully to make reading easier.

Awesome work Huang YuShi.
Thanks for completing and adding the final list with the Chinese titles.
Now, if someone can just make sure this list will stay here and not getting deleted. Maybe the Moderator or someone can save this list or even make it sticky ?
Actually Legend of The Flying Swordsman was made in 2000. Wouldn't Flying Dagger be on the list since it's a little related to Siu Lee Fei Do?
Thanks for the clarification. I've edited the date.Originally Posted by Dagger Lee
Are you referring to: 飞刀手 (1969 - Cheng Peipei) or 神经刀与飞天猫 (1993 - Tony Leung, Maggie Cheung et al)? Let me know and I'll add it in. Thanks.Originally Posted by Dagger Lee
Thanks and you're welcome. Just a small contribution to the retention of the wuxia movie genre for future generations.Originally Posted by Temujin
I'm referring to the 1993 film with Tony Leung and Maggie Cheung. Sorry for the confusion.Originally Posted by HuangYushi
