You poor, deprived child! You must go forth and rent some of his movies! Jet Li is totally amazing. He can kick some serious butt.

He is as good actos As Arnold Swarzenegger(spelling?), but his movies are still good because he can really kick ass. Well i have always liked Kung-fu stuff...

*grabs Spike - very carefully like - and sits him down infront of TV and starts up a DVD, The Enforcer* Truuuuust me, you'll like ths Jet Li movie... especially when he starts whipping around the ropes real fast. No camera tricks or piano wires either.

And... it's Schwarzennegger! Schwarz (like from Spaceballs) + en + egger

It isn't supposed to be realistic, if it was one kick to the head could break a neck... But it is supposed to be entertainment so wires don't bother me. Espceially in Rmeo must die Jet Li makes somre pretty cool kicks... But I like the earlier Jet Li movies better. Kiss of The Dragon was, well lets jus't say don't watch it...

Goodness HT, how did you know that?
*gives Spike a bag of microwaveable popcorn*
Here. Cook that for two minutes, and you'll get your mango popcorn!

Ooh... If you're gonna watch a few Jet Li flicks, make sure to rent the Once Upon a Time in China series! Those movies had some of the best action sequences ever. Plus, Jet was pretty young in those movies, so he can move faster than lightning!

Jet Li is cool, if you wanna see some *good* flicks he was in, check these out:

-The One
-Black Mask
-Lethal Weapon 4 (He kicks Mel Gibson's ass)
-Romeo Must Die (The 8 Ball scene kicked.)

Those are his new films. Old ones are 10 times better. Like Once upon a time in china or Twin warriors aka Tai chi masters.

Ohh yeah... just as I was gona say. He's new ones got too many piano wires and digital special effects in them to sort of dampen the raw beauty of his talent.

The one ones are all 100% martial arts. Yeah baaaaby!

The effects don't bother me, they just arent as good plotwise etc. And yes kung-fu movie can have a plot.

Okay... here's one kung-fu movie to not see (unless you like totally tacky, plotless humor):

Kung-Pow

I have heard that it's a bad parody of kung-fu movies.
