Define sword fight is that two people with swords fighting or does one guy using a sword in a fight count?
And swords means there has to be at least two of them, otherwise I would say Pulp fiction. Gangs of New York is also a corner case here. The movie we are looking for is probably a historical drama, from after swords were used, but everyone still had them as part of their uniform... Doctor Zhivago, perhaps? Some Civil War drama? Dances with wolves?

If we'd been able to include TV-series, I'd have answered I Claudius. Can't recall rhat we ever got to see any actual swordfighting in that.

I would go with Dances with Wolves.
I haven't watched it in years, but I'm certain that Costner and several of the other army guys at the beginning had swords, but I sure don't remember anybody fighting with them. I'm calling the answer legit unless you care to argue the point.
Most awesome giant ray gun in a movie?
the Deathstar's!!! Destroying a whole planet is pretty awesome.

1. Jello Biafra in Highway 61

I totally think it should count.
2. Marshall McLuhan in Annie Hall
2. Marshall McLuhan in Annie Hall
Excellent choice.
Isn't Arnie the star of Last Action Hero, or am I thinking of something else?

He IS the star but the entire premise of the movie is that a boy gets sucked into the world of his favorite action hero, Jack Slater. In the "movie" world it follows action movie rules. But when the action movie villain uses the magic ticket to come into the real world the kid and Jack follow him back. During the Premiere of the latest Jack Slater movie Jack Slater (Arnold) bumps into Arnold (as..well..Arnold) and a bit of confusion ensues.
It was a cool bit of Meta going on there for a moment which is why I think that it should count as a cameo.

I assume Sissyl means Arnold Schwarzenegger AS HIMSELF in a cameo role, vs. in-character as Jack Slater.
Which I think totally counts as a cameo.
EDIT: Ninja'd
4. Stan Lee being mistaken for Hugh Hefner in Iron Man
I stand corrected. My apologies to Sissyl and Arnold.

GET OUT OF MY HEAD!! AAAAAAAH!
Seriously, that is my favorite JC film as well (Shanghai Noon being my favorite American JC movie).
As far as Sammo Hung, I gotta go with My Lucky Stars if only for his acting ability.
Who would win in a fight? Donnie Yuen or Tony Jaa?

Donnie Yuen seems to have a more versatility and a breadth of fighting styles so I'm gonna go with him.
Which is one do you prefer? BLADE or BLADE 2? (I am unaware of a 3rd Blade film...)
