I Just bought the Street Fighter Collection On VHS,
Just had Clarence Worley Night In!!
I Was also new to Chiba (Many thanks to Q.T)
Loved all 4 the only problem i had was the Dubbing on
'Street Fighters Last Revenge' the rest aint to bad but that ones terrible,
Makes you wanna learn Japanise!
Should be getting the 10 pack soon, Hopefully!
guy i bought them off is messing around!
Guess it must be Chiba's Trademark the Fighting in the rain thing,
Does this happen in any other Chiba films?
happens in all street fighters execpt sister.
The Bruce Lee comment above is totally right!

Never did end up getting that 10-pack,
But did get a cool Chiba film called 'Samurai Reincarnation' Classic!
Look's Like it's going to be remade, without Chiba!

Someone who has seen The Soul of Bruce Lee, are the other chiba movies even as near as so funny as it? Damn i cant think a movie that has caused so much laughter as this one. Everyone should check it out if they can. hahaha..

About to order the Chiba 10-Pack at http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=3685053&cart=185356636&style=MOVIE, with shipping it comes to just over $20, good for anyone who can't find it in any stores near them.
Question, are the movies in the pack in original language with subs or the English dubbed? -

I think one of his best, but most overlooked performances was in "Deadly Battle in Hiroshima", the second film of the Yakuza Papers series Battles without Honour and Humanity.
Chiba has mentioned that he thinks he performed best when being directed by Kinji Fukasaku, who also directed The Yagyu Clan Conspiracy. -

Deffinitely.. other than Hirono, Otomo was the best character in that movie,but then again that whole series is one of the greatest series of all time.
anyways
Noones brought 4 awesome chiba movies and im amazed
1 Karate bear fighter
2 karate bull fighter
3 Yokohama Underworld: The Machine-Gun Dragon( bunta sugawara) is my favorite japanese actor so that makes this one even better)
4 Memoir of Japanese Assassins (also with bunta sugawara)
I like them all but those 4 are deffinite favorites and im a much bigger yakuza fan than karate so thats why the little bias towards the 3rd film.
hope it helps a little -

I'm so very surprised no one mentioned SENGOKU JIETAI aka G.I. SAMURAI aka TIME SLIP.
I watched it expecting to be a trash b-movie flick. Who wouldn't? I mean - G.I. Samurai? Not only it is definitely not a trash b-action movie (which I also like, btw) but it's the complete opposite. I was simply amazed by all the performances, especially Chiba's, of course. The character development is excellent. Even the special effects are pretty awesome for the time it was made. And it had very powerful and emotional ending.
To me it is his best work, and on the of the best movies I've seen in my life.
I have to also mention The Street Fighter which was pure awesome power!
Unfortunately that's the only one I will probably see, because I can't seem to find the sequels subtitled, and not dubbed. One thing I hate more than censorship, it's the fuc*ing dubbing. Isn't it simpler just to write a few lines of subtitles, than to hire (lame) voice actors, a recording studio and then ruin the movie with horrendous dubbing? They can't even tell Tsurugi's name right - one lame voice actor calls him Suguri, the other lame voice actor calls him Tsukuri. Dubbing should be prohibited by law! -

I have The 10 Faces of Sonny Chiba and that's what got me into Chiba. The Street Fighter movies are awesome. I ordered the Bluray double feature Killing Machine (aka Shorinji Kenpo)/Shogun's Ninja. I got it just for Killing Machine since Shogun's Ninja is in the 10 pack.
I have to get the Sonny Chiba Matsutatsu Oyama Trilogy someday.
