Ric Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I've watched Armour of God, Fearless Hyena, Project A, and Wheels on Meals this month. If we got any other fans, what are your favorite JC films? Police Story is my favorite and I see 1-2 are joining the Criterion collection, gonnabuy that set for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted February 27, 2019 Author Share Posted February 27, 2019 Rumble in the Bronx is good, seen it a bunch of times. Pretty sure it was the first Chan movie I saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DragonSinger Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 The Young Master. The choreography of the fights is fucking amazing, and I use the film as reference to get the rhythm of a fight down plus adding humor when needed. It's also just fucking hilarious.

midnight Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Rush Hour is good. Forbidden Kingdom. Cannonball Run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunStarHero Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Rush Hour 1 &2, City Hunter, Drunken Master II, and Rumble in Bronx are my favorites. I do appreciate his cameo in King of Comedy. (And his appearance in Enter the Dragon solely based on his story about wanting Bruce Lee to hold him when Jackie was hurt on set.) Also I have this in Laserdisc because why not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted February 28, 2019 Author Share Posted February 28, 2019 The Young Master is on Amazon Prime I think so might watch that next. I know I've seen it before but don't remember it very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mix Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I don't remember a lot of his early movies which were hilarious.... I enjoyed The Drunken Master a lot and The Twin Dragons was pretty funny... Mr. Nice Guy and Rumble in the Bronx are mainstays... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than the white-haired witch trope, the only thing I liked about The Forbidden Kingdom was this scene: This would have been so much better if bigwigs hadn't decided that Americans no longer wanted to watch martial arts movies featuring Asians unless there was some white dude with zero fighting skills as the lead. That trend was why I got more into foreign films though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted July 5, 2019 Author Share Posted July 5, 2019 I remembered this thread for some reason because my Police Story 1-2 set showed up today, forgot about it for two months. Which works out I guess since it was 44% off. On 3/1/2019 at 6:11 AM, lupin_bebop said: No Mr. Nice Guy, Drunken Master, or Legend of Drunken mister? No Who Am I?

Ric Posted March 11, 2020 Author Share Posted March 11, 2020 I might make this a yearly thing. Got out some Jackie Chan movies to watch. Police Story 1-2 Criterion Set I bought last year but haven't watched yet. Mr. Nice Guy (original uncut version that released on bluray recently) Crime Story Drunken Master 1-2 Not to marathon all at once, this will be over 4-6 weeks.

katt_goddess Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Jackie Chan is the frickin' man. Don't know why, just enjoy his movies both old and new. Yes, even the reboot / re-do / re-whatever of 'Karate Kid' . I have his autobiography on the shelf around here somewhere. And when I saw this thread I had to pull this out for the photo-op because it's stupid hilarious. I really need to update some of my crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
