Daeval Posted December 24, 2004 Posted December 24, 2004 I like Jackie Chan more than Lee or Li, though I definately respect the work of the other two. Where Jet Li and Bruce Lee tend to be more straightforward, and arguably more practical, in their fighting style, Jackie Chan is more "colorful," and I find it more entertaining to watch. I can't really pick which of his films I like the best.. The original Drunken Master was awesome, as was the one that started with the lion/dragon fight, I think it was The Young Master.
Chaotica Posted December 24, 2004 Posted December 24, 2004 I liked Enter the Dragon, which is my fav Bruce Lee film, and The Young Master, which is my favourite JAckie Chan film. But my favourite martial arts movie is Bloodsport. It just has a certain magic for me.

Sybarite Paladin AxL Posted December 24, 2004 Posted December 24, 2004 I prefer Jackie CHan over Lee or Li just bcuz most of his films are so damn funny, and he's that good a martial arts master in those films, he seems clutzi at times and would almost act like a chinese version of kramer...
Jiggs Posted December 24, 2004 Posted December 24, 2004 Jackie Chan was also an extra who gets his neck broken in (I think) Enter The Dragon. You guys need to watch Jackie Chan's Project A. That movie is all kinds of badassed.
KyokugenKiss Posted December 24, 2004 Posted December 24, 2004 yes, Jackie Chan has the comedy element that Bruce and Jet could never do although i prefer Samo because he defys the laws of physics and is funnier than Jackie, though there best movies are the collaborations of Jackie, Samo, and Yuen Biao (they all went to the peking opera school together)
Daeval Posted December 24, 2004 Posted December 24, 2004 though there best movies are the collaborations of Jackie, Samo, and Yuen Biao (they all went to the peking opera school together)<{POST_SNAPBACK}> The few of those movies that I've seen are the brest. I need to find more. I've heard "wheels on meals" or whatever it's called is one of the coolest. I watched a documentary on Jackie Chan once that showed this near-fatal stunt that was fouled during a hong-kong flick. He was supposed to swing with this tree branch onto a wall. The problem was that, in real life, the wall was on the edge of a tall cliff, and the branch broke during the take. Scary stuff. And I've actually never seen Project A - I must go find this one.
Alpha Posted December 24, 2004 Author Posted December 24, 2004 Jackie chan is far batter than Jet Li and he is loose and not as stiff as him. I admire it a lot and of course Jackie actually has some sense of humor IMO.

Once upon a Time in China owns j00. brw, Chow Yun-Fat is cool. Replacement Killers and Crouching Tiiger, Hidden Dragon for life.
