Greatest Martial Arts "Spoof" Film?

What was the most humourous martial arts film you have seen (that "spoofed" MA) and why?

I'm undecided... between silly "Kung Pow!" and several MA scenes in the old "Pink Panther" films (between Inspector Clouseau and Kato)?

The reverse spinning back kick of the Jersey cow in "Kung Pow!" is hard to beat, I must admit... Then again, Ed Parker's guest appearance in one of the "Pink Panther" films, where he hand chops a desk in half after defeating all the gangster hitmen is impressive. Ha!;)

Have you never seen ''kung fu hustle''? Its the quintessential Martial Arts spoof. Shaolin soccer's not bad either.

Kill Bill has gotta be up there on top as the #1 MA spoof of all times. After that then is anything with Chuck Norris in it. LMAO

"18 fingers of death" was good, a lot of references to different MA movie stars (except they changed all the names slightly).

Kill Bill sucked. So I suppose it is a spoof MA film.

the king of them all has to be Black Belt Jones - its a 70's martial arts blacksploitation film - pure comedy genius

"Kung Pow!" ......utter crap......to be honest cant watch thoes films!

Kill bill? I didnt think it sucked as much as anything from chuck norris or anything from Mr 'Pony Tail' Seagal since the mightly: Under Siege 2: Dark Territory!!

I hated the cow scene, it almost ruined the movie for me (and to make it worse they threw in the, even by that time, old joke of slowing things down like in the matrix). That said my friend thought that scene was fantastic and lol'ed for the whole scene

I laughed too! It was the ultimate spoof, especially when there were so many in past MA threads that suggest that fancy kickking in SD situations was not practical.
