    Ok, I'm going to derail this discussion just momentarily to say that the Triad Bodhidharma figure is amazing!

        Great list by Marcos! I'll try to watch the films on the list that I have not seen.

        I LOVE the Bodhidharma action figure!

        There are a lot of movies set in the Shaolin Temple, but they usually focus on kung fu and not so much Buddhism. One of my favorite kung fu movies are "The Shaolin Temple".

        Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.


        "Based on a semi-true story of how Shaolin monks rescued the first emperor of the Tang dynasty, The Shaolin Temple was not only Jet Li’s cinematic debut but also the first martial arts epic made in mainland China since the Communist takeover. The film was instrumental in introducing wushu to film fans around the world. However, its most important impact was the reinstatement of the cultural value and historicity of Shaolin Temple."

          also, not overtly buddhist, but this filmaker deserves a look: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godfrey_Reggio

          and, the maker of samsara made a follow-up called baraka...

              Great list! I have watched many of these, but a recent movie that blew my mind was Kung fu Panda. I feel like many ideas in the movie are in sync with Jundo's teachings on Shikantaza an it's key ingredient of trust.
