Jackie Chan

He's one of my most beloved and favorite actors. I don't miss any of his movies, and didn't see only the really early ones, or maybe I even saw it all, can't be sure.

I think he's really, really past his prime...

He's starred in some really entertaining martial arts comedies. I personally prefer more spectacular themes and settings for martial arts films, such as in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon or Once Upon A Time In China.

Well crouching tiger hidden dragon was good but i would have to go with Rush Hour and Rush Hour 2 myself

I love Jackie Chan!! I think his funniest movie is Shanghai Noon, but his best has to be Legend of Drunken Master. If you havn't seen the latter, it is a must see!

Arwen the Hobbit · 06-24-2002, 08:58 PM

Rush Hour and Rush Hour 2 are great! I also liked Twin Dragons, though I haven't seen it in a couple years. It's one of his older ones.

Drunken master 2, first strike, rumble in the bronx and Shi di chu ma (The young master... the last fighting scene is just... hillarious!)

***Khamûl*** · 06-24-2002, 11:43 PM

I think my favorite Jackie Chan movie is First Strike. I haven't seen many others, but I also liked Rush Hour 2.

The Ringbearer · 06-25-2002, 12:04 AM

I've only seen Rush hour 2, First strike, and Rumble in the Bronx (we couldn't see the rating because the box covered it up

We watched it until the first really obscene part; you know what I mean. Then we turned it off in a fit of giggles....)

I'd also really like to see Rush Hour 1 but I have to wait until tomorrow to see it ''legally''. I'll be 13 tomorrow!

I couldn't help seeing the other one because we were in an airplane at the time.)

Also, I'm not going to show this thread to my brother, I think.
He is absolutely CRAZY about Jackie Chan! T-shirts, the cartoon on Saturdays, a mad lust for any movie with him in it( including PG-13 ones; he's only 7!), etc......

BeardofPants · 06-25-2002, 12:13 AM

There's a cartoon?! Oh dear henry...

***Khamûl*** · 06-25-2002, 01:59 AM

How about one of the video games? Jackie Chan's Stuntmaster

afro-elf · 06-25-2002, 07:10 AM

I will still go see a jackie chan movie and for an "old" guy he is in tremendous shape but he along with jet li have grown stagnant.
( still good though) sort of like yngwie malmsteen. I still love the guy but I KNOW he will arpeggio me to death

having been weened on shaw brothers it takes a lot to impress me

Jackie's best for me was the second to last fight in the FIRST fearless Hyena

Jet peaked in Tai Chi master.

Jackie's Hollywood movies are OK but his Hong Kong ones are still good.

I like most of he wuxia from golden harvest

One more thing.......
