Thanks Scott for such a wonderful interview. It was so great reconnecting with you again. Your interview on my Sidekick Podcast channel on RUclips goes out tomorrow and hope you enjoy it. Such an honor my friend.
Thanks Keith, I've watched lots of Scott's amazing action-scenes and interviews, to date, this is by far my favorite interview, you are or at least should be America's favorite neighbor, that can still kick @@@, thank you.
As an African from Cameroon I grew up watching those action martial arts films. Now I am teaching Karate and doing movies in Africa. You guys had great influence on me. God bless you all. 🙏🙏🙏
Scott's a Midlands boy like myself & were proud of what you achieved. Keith is a phenomenal talent & Blood Brothers, American Kickboxer showcase his martial art skills.
Art of Action is building a helluva catalogue of martial arts LEGENDS finally getting their flowers by a present day legend himself, cheers Scott. For what it's worth, Jeff Wincott would be a valuable addition!
I absolutely love this channel. I grew up on these movies. I'm 42 now and these interviews bring me right back to my childhood. Cheers on another great interview.
No retreat no surrender 3 blood brothers amazed me as a kid, I would rent it all the time it would always blew me away, I remember asking my dad if i can stay up at night because it was showing on TV and taped it on VHS in the 90s I would watch it non stop
these interviews are great because it gives voice and credit to those all time stars (many B movies) which made our afternoons great in the 80's, so many years ago, Scott asks technical questions in both regarding technique and filming style, hence it gives more depth to this amazing art and like most things in life...there's much more than meets the eye....great work Scott!!
No Retreat No Surrender 3. It may be the most legendary martial art movie I have ever watched. I still watch it every chance I get. Hail to the legends
Super Fights is the most fun American Martial Arts Movie that no one ever talks about and Keith Vitali was a great Villain! And don’t even get me started on how much I love No Retreat No Surrender 3! Great Interview Guys! God Bless. 🙏🏾🥋🏆
Superfight was the first film I ever saw Keith in and I was instantly blown away. I thought his kicks were amazing and it was the first time when I thought the villain was more skilled than the hero. And American Kickboxer 1 is a personal favorite of mine.
Bit late watching this Ep, it disappeared in 'tube feed! Mr Vitali is a total legend and the nicest chad. Such a humble guy, he quietly started interviewing you. And he called you the next Bruce Lee! Since you're from Birmingham, we can nickname you Brum Lee. :P
Because of that great show I decided to watch new (that I've never seen before) and rewatch old martial arts movies. My goooooood, it's so cool! Thank you, Mr Adkins! You are the person of huge scale!
What a wonderful episode….an interview with an actor that was one of the first that got me in to martial arts movies alongside a most grounded and top drawer star of the day. Both great people to listen to and although my body won’t let me do the things I wanna do anymore I’m going to dig out my older movies and go on a nostalgic journey. Thank you to both for bringing smiles and inspiration in equal measure. With the warmest regards…..
Your channel is considered one of the best channels and one of the best channels specialized in the world of martial arts. You inspire us in all your distinguished and interesting topics.
I first saw Keith in Superfighters and his performance blew me away. His character was both charismatic and friendly one scene and sadistic and cruel the next. The scene were he shows off his martial arts abilities was jaw dropping because I thought he was gonna be one of those cowardly villains that don’t get their hands dirty, only for him to be an unstoppable fighter.
I actually thought Keith was also the guy that frequented Donnie Yen's early films. You now John Salvitti. It's kind of crazy he's only been in like 6 films
Hi Scott!! I love your channel and seeing all these martial arts stars interviewed by you who are another great martial artist is truly incredible. I would love it to be subtitled in Spanish because these interviews are worth collecting!! Huge hug for you from Argentina!
Greatly Appreciate your efforts to provide reviews with the people and the amazing films they brought us, as well as sharing glimpses into your journey!
Awesome, Scott, having Keith Vitali in AoA. i hope you get to interview Jeff Pruit, Sophia Crawford, Zoe Bell, Johnny Yung Bosch and the other guy on blood moon.
Another great episode Scott. I love your love of these movies and actors. Keith: wheels on meals is fantastic! Also, I absolutely love NRNS3, especially the end fight scene. It's so well done. Rion Hunter played a fantastic bad guy. An action movie is only good as the bad guy and he portrayed it amazingly. Once again, those 2 movies and their fight scenes are fantastic and will live on forever as far as I'm concerned.
Great interview! I'll have to go back and check out some of Keith's films! Also, Scott; that's so cool that you're getting into directing! I'd love for you to have more creative control and see what kind of movies you make!
that's not fair Vitali should be an Action Superstar he has it all and talented martial artist better than many other action actors who pretend to be martial artists but they're not
Keith is such a nice guy, growing up watching his films and lucky enough in the last few years to get to know him a little. I still feel so bummed in Revenge of the Ninja when he dies =S
Love you, Scott. Been waiting for this since the Avedon show. You’re keeping everything I love about the martial arts and action movies alive. The show is a gift. Please don’t ever stop doing it. I love blood moon. That is such a weird and wacky movie. It is kind of like the more Hong Kong style version of Tiger claws. A kung fu serial killer movie in the vain of science of the lambs. And a predecessor to the great Donnie Yen, kung fu killer. Keith is a legend. In wheels on meals alone in the 80s he got to work with Benny the jet Sam Hung, Yuen biao and Jackie Chan. Where do you go from there? Superfghts is the definition of cult classic. That movie could only existed at in a narrow window. It’s karate kid on crack.
WE Can Say what WE want, doing a good action Movie IS hard work, definitly hard work from go action to that's a wrap. So Big UP and thank you for what you give us. Gos bless you all for raising thé level upper and upper.
Man I was waiting all day for this clip. I’ve got my usual Monday bath, marinading in a hot bath, candles, bubbles…real manly stuff 😂😂😂….watching my favourite channel. What a fantastic Monday!
Thank You so much Scott for this Podcast Serie, its a Heaven for Martial Arts Nerds :D love your movies, your the best of this generation, keep it up!! Osu
More accident man please… more everything. To be fair, Keith is not wrong. When my movie nerd buddies get together you are my go to for martial arts movies and to see them get excited when they recognize you in JW4… awesome.
Scott, you need do do an extended episode on you( past , present and future; especially more detailed on the future plans + some funny/interesting stories, casting-stories that happened to you, with other actors/directors/producers) Respect!
Very, very, very interesting ! From the Revenge of the Ninja with Sho Kosugi, to American Kickboxer and the - top - movies from Seasonal films, it' s a great pleasure to hear Mister Vitali to his work ! A special demand : who is Rion Hunter ? The heavy from Blood Brother ? A shaman ? Thanks to both of you.
I have a vague memory of seeing Keith in a movie with Sho Kosugi- some ninja thing. I seem to recall his character gets killed midway through...It was hard to see any HK movies. When I started training much later my mates and I found a Chinese language theatre in Miami that would play all sorts of movies at midnight- that's where we saw some great flicks. Glad to see he's still around.
KEITH VITALI was on the same level as ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER,JEAN CLAUDE VAN DAMME,SYLVESTER STALLONE,CHUCK NORRIS,LORENZO LAMAS,LOREN AVEDON,GARY DANIEL and RICHARD NORTON. I don't why Hollywood didn't gave this talentful actor many major movies and how didn't they recognize his talent in martial art?
The thing is it took Hollywood awhile to actually care about martial arts, which is why martial artists never got the major roles the deserve. Now a martial artists could get big roles as martial arts has gotten respectable in Hollywood with fight sequences coming in with the likes of Winter Soldier
Thanks Scott for such a wonderful interview. It was so great reconnecting with you again. Your interview on my Sidekick Podcast channel on RUclips goes out tomorrow and hope you enjoy it. Such an honor my friend.
You're the best, Keith!
Thanks Keith, I've watched lots of Scott's
amazing action-scenes and interviews, to date, this
is by far my favorite interview, you are or at least
should be America's favorite neighbor, that
can still kick @@@, thank you.
Welcome back scott adkins
Keith: "You should really be proud of everything you've done" 100%!
As an African from Cameroon I grew up watching those action martial arts films. Now I am teaching Karate and doing movies in Africa. You guys had great influence on me. God bless you all. 🙏🙏🙏

So glad to see you back Scott 👌
Art of Action is building a helluva catalogue of martial arts LEGENDS finally getting their flowers by a present day legend himself, cheers Scott. For what it's worth, Jeff Wincott would be a valuable addition!
A Jeff Wincott interview would be amazing!
Keith was great in Wheels On Meals! 40 years later it's still one of the best!
Hell yeah, love this guy. No Retreat No Surrender 3 had some amazing fight scenes.
I absolutely love this channel. I grew up on these movies. I'm 42 now and these interviews bring me right back to my childhood. Cheers on another great interview.
Right the same feelings! I even watch and rewatch new (for me) and old movies because of this show. It's so cool!
Blood brothers was ( and still is) awesome !!
Superfights was a badass movie. He was great in that movie. The fights in that movie were outstanding 👏
That was exceptional!!
No retreat no surrender 3 blood brothers amazed me as a kid, I would rent it all the time it would always blew me away, I remember asking my dad if i can stay up at night because it was showing on TV and taped it on VHS in the 90s I would watch it non stop

I am a huge fan of No retreat No surrender 3 and Keith Vitali is brilliant also in Revenge of the Ninja.
Wheels On Meals is his best work.
Welcome back Scott!! Keith is such a great martial artist and person.
No Retreat No Surrender 3. It may be the most legendary martial art movie I have ever watched. I still watch it every chance I get. Hail to the legends

Superfight was the first film I ever saw Keith in and I was instantly blown away. I thought his kicks were amazing and it was the first time when I thought the villain was more skilled than the hero. And American Kickboxer 1 is a personal favorite of mine.
Loved this seriesHopefully we get some more in the future Scotts one of my favourite actors been supporting him for years
Bit late watching this Ep, it disappeared in 'tube feed!
Mr Vitali is a total legend and the nicest chad. Such a humble guy, he quietly started interviewing you. And he called you the next Bruce Lee! Since you're from Birmingham, we can nickname you Brum Lee. :P
Both you guys are so awesome and humble and exciting on screen, and so thoughtful in real life.
Keith looks fantastic!
They all do, Richard norton as well
Because of that great show I decided to watch new (that I've never seen before) and rewatch old martial arts movies. My goooooood, it's so cool! Thank you, Mr Adkins! You are the person of huge scale!

Incredibly insightful conversation, so glad you two finally collaborated!
9:39 "I just did a fight scene with Benny a couple months ago" ...Yo! Two OG Legends still adding to their legacy!
Thanks Scott for doing another fantastic interview with one of the greats. Enjoyed that you both shared each others history.❤💯
Your channel is considered one of the best channels and one of the best channels specialized in the world of martial arts. You inspire us in all your distinguished and interesting topics.
An new interview what a treat!!!
Thx for posting it on RUclips!!!!
Killa in "John Wick 4" was literally a killer role. That was so much fun!
Thank you both
Great episode guys. I need to rewatch ‘Wheels On Meals’ again. It’s a true Hong Kong classic.
Yes!!! I've been waiting on this. No Retreat No Surrender 3 was my jam.
I first saw Keith in Superfighters and his performance blew me away. His character was both charismatic and friendly one scene and sadistic and cruel the next. The scene were he shows off his martial arts abilities was jaw dropping because I thought he was gonna be one of those cowardly villains that don’t get their hands dirty, only for him to be an unstoppable fighter.
❤
I actually thought Keith was also the guy that frequented Donnie Yen's early films. You now John Salvitti. It's kind of crazy he's only been in like 6 films
It's a pleasure to see new encounters with prominent martial arts masters on your channel, Mr. Scott Adkins !!!😍
Make your movie happen Scott! Respect! 🍺
Great episode!
Always fascinating to hear these stories from the golden age.
Scott came from humble beginnings. That's why he's still humble now.
Watched this on Keiths channel, in the morning. Really enjoyed it. I think this one contains extra footage.
Good to see u back
Scott this podcast is great
Damn they really didn't mess around in those days. Great stories and a wonderful interview as always. Best channel on RUclips!
Hi Scott!! I love your channel and seeing all these martial arts stars interviewed by you who are another great martial artist is truly incredible. I would love it to be subtitled in Spanish because these interviews are worth collecting!! Huge hug for you from Argentina!
Meals on wheels was the 1st movie I saw it started the fire lol....Scott adkins legend and inspiration 🙏

Keith Vitali is a legend and he is spot about you in Avengement and the Accident Man movies.
Greatly Appreciate your efforts to provide reviews with the people and the amazing films they brought us, as well as sharing glimpses into your journey!
it was in my early high school days if I am not mistaken when I watched the trailer of No Retreat, No Surrender 3, and it was awesome
Excellent video. FYI, Sammo just got a lifetime achievement award at the HK film awards! Well deserved
I'm so grateful you decided to make this series! It's awesome!!
Keith As long as you have your smile your golden. ; )❤
This is what I was waiting for! Two complete martial artists and real gentlemen! Congrats!
Excellent interview! Great show! I enjoyed every second of it.

Great episode Scott!! Love Keith, and love old martial arts movies. Keep the hard work my friend!! Greetings from Argentina.
i missed this channel!
Glad you’re back.Great episode I wish you do more episodes regularly like before.
This man is pure class.
Love these shows, keep em coming Scott 🤙🏻💪🏻🙏🏻
Keith Vitali is a great villain, loved him in Superfights as Robert Sawyer. But I'd say he was tops in No Retreat No Surrender 3 with Loren!
Awesome, Scott, having Keith Vitali in AoA. i hope you get to interview Jeff Pruit, Sophia Crawford, Zoe Bell, Johnny Yung Bosch and the other guy on blood moon.
It was a great interview with Scott Adkins! Gary Daniels interview would be sweet!
No fake. Full metal contact. Gotta love it.
Another great episode Scott. I love your love of these movies and actors. Keith: wheels on meals is fantastic! Also, I absolutely love NRNS3, especially the end fight scene. It's so well done. Rion Hunter played a fantastic bad guy. An action movie is only good as the bad guy and he portrayed it amazingly. Once again, those 2 movies and their fight scenes are fantastic and will live on forever as far as I'm concerned.
Wow. Mr. Adkins. I was missing a lot another amazing episode of the Art of Action.
Scott you're back. Great. Take care God bless you and your family.
Scott I am so happy that you are still going on with this series.
I'm not sure he is. He stated he was being interviewed for Keith Podcast, so it was kind of luck we got another art of action.
@@aaronrumph3291 oh really. It is very nice series , well conducted tbh.
@@DpKris hopefully he is continuing it though
Great interview! I'll have to go back and check out some of Keith's films!
Also, Scott; that's so cool that you're getting into directing! I'd love for you to have more creative control and see what kind of movies you make!
that's not fair Vitali should be an Action Superstar he has it all and talented martial artist better than many other action actors who pretend to be martial artists but they're not
Keith is such a nice guy, growing up watching his films and lucky enough in the last few years to get to know him a little. I still feel so bummed in Revenge of the Ninja when he dies =S
awesum as always.
Love you, Scott. Been waiting for this since the Avedon show. You’re keeping everything I love about the martial arts and action movies alive. The show is a gift. Please don’t ever stop doing it.
I love blood moon. That is such a weird and wacky movie. It is kind of like the more Hong Kong style version of Tiger claws. A kung fu serial killer movie in the vain of science of the lambs. And a predecessor to the great Donnie Yen, kung fu killer.

WE Can Say what WE want, doing a good action Movie IS hard work, definitly hard work from go action to that's a wrap. So Big UP and thank you for what you give us. Gos bless you all for raising thé level upper and upper.
Keep doing more interviews like this rather than with unknown stunt people in today’s blockbusters
Thank you for this great episode.
Legend
the Yuen Biao Kick at 11:08 is one of my absolute favourite kicks of all time in action cinema.
Scott you are legend to these legends. Please interview Michael Dudikoff as well.
Man I was waiting all day for this clip.
I’ve got my usual Monday bath, marinading in a hot bath, candles, bubbles…real manly stuff 😂😂😂….watching my favourite channel. What a fantastic Monday!
Hooray! Thank you for doing more!!
In my mind, Keith Vitali made loads of films, but he only made 6 or 7. He always made a big impact when he showed up though.
Decent interview 😎 Keith is definitely among the action legends !
P. S. Too bad Scott didnt asked Keith about being in Nash Bridges tv series.
Scott the Director ! Looking forward to it 😁👍
Thank You so much Scott for this Podcast Serie, its a Heaven for Martial Arts Nerds :D love your movies, your the best of this generation, keep it up!! Osu
More accident man please… more everything.
To be fair, Keith is not wrong. When my movie nerd buddies get together you are my go to for martial arts movies and to see them get excited when they recognize you in JW4… awesome.
Me alegra verte de nuevo
Scott, you need do do an extended episode on you( past , present and future; especially more detailed on the future plans + some funny/interesting stories, casting-stories that happened to you, with other actors/directors/producers) Respect!
Very, very, very interesting !
From the Revenge of the Ninja with Sho Kosugi, to American Kickboxer and the - top -
movies from Seasonal films, it' s a great pleasure to hear Mister Vitali to his work !
A special demand : who is Rion Hunter ? The heavy from Blood Brother ? A shaman ?
Thanks to both of you.
Keith Vitali is a legend!
And Scott Adkins has Iron Fist written all over him. I think Marvel missed a trick for sure.
No Retreat No Surrender 3: Blood Brothers is probably the greatest American martial arts film of all time.
I have a vague memory of seeing Keith in a movie with Sho Kosugi- some ninja thing. I seem to recall his character gets killed midway through...It was hard to see any HK movies. When I started training much later my mates and I found a Chinese language theatre in Miami that would play all sorts of movies at midnight- that's where we saw some great flicks. Glad to see he's still around.
That was Revenge of the Ninja (1983). Great movie and it had Sho's son Kane in it as well.
Got my original poster for Force: Five!
KEITH VITALI was on the same level as ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER,JEAN CLAUDE VAN DAMME,SYLVESTER STALLONE,CHUCK NORRIS,LORENZO LAMAS,LOREN AVEDON,GARY DANIEL and RICHARD NORTON. I don't why Hollywood didn't gave this talentful actor many major movies and how didn't they recognize his talent in martial art?
Also Jeff Speakman
There's sooooo many talented and hardworking people that Hollywood didn't acknowledge.
Yes bro,complete right!!!
2 of those guys you mentioned don’t even belong on this list. I’ll let you guess which ones.
The thing is it took Hollywood awhile to actually care about martial arts, which is why martial artists never got the major roles the deserve. Now a martial artists could get big roles as martial arts has gotten respectable in Hollywood with fight sequences coming in with the likes of Winter Soldier
Finally to see the art of action
no retreat no surrender 3 is legendary
