Origins of the movie
Just a little history on the movie story line. The movie is based on a book. The book was also done as a T.V. series way before the movie. I recall them being about 26 episodes (Thats 26 tapes!) of about 2 hours each. (Or 1 hour... I was a long time ago ) I abosultly loved it!Anyways, that also explains the dizzy pace of the movie, because it crams about a 3rd of the series into one movie. It also explains the ending because it's not over yet.I wish Jet li will make a sequal for this to complete the story line! It could be a trilogy!Anyways, let me spoil your future for you a little.The story is about two swords which are unbreakable. So the owners who use it becomes very strong. (Like the Green Destiny in Crouching Tiger. BTW, the clan that Jet Li originally belonged to with Sammo is the same Wu Dan clan as in crouching tiger)Every one wants the sword. The story evolved into Jet Li mastering all the highest techniques of each martial arts school. He always ends up stuck somewhere with a master or a place with the secrets written down.He falls in love (out of like 5 or 6 to choose from) and drives the mongols out of china. the end.A little history note here (I am no expert, but). Wu Dan clan is very popular because they were the clan which gathered all the martial arts schools and groups and drove out the mongols out of china. Just like the movie.
