Eh, I'll take your word on that, too. Anyway, my favorite Jet Li movie was the one where he had a little son who could kick some major arse. I forgot the name of the movie, but it was definitely cool.

Many of Jet-Li's movies were filmed in China and not received wide distribution here. Ones you might know of are Romeo Must Die, Kiss of the Dragon, and he was in Lethal Weapon 4 (I think thats the right one).

I've always respected Jackie Chan for the fact that he doesn't do "special effects" type movies (though I don't have a problem with Crouching Tiger style fight scenes). Jackie Chan is a lot of fun to watch.

Nope, never saw any of those movies.

I love watching Jackie Chan. I've always had a soft spot for action comedy. Have you seen his WB cartoon?

Yep, I've seen all of Jet Li's "mainstream" appearances. You forgot to mention that Black Mask was in theatres for a short while. I remember, since I was one of three people who sat in a theatre to watch it I've watched several of Jet Li's older movies (the Once Upon a Time in China series as well as a few others). And ya, I agree! Jackie Chan is a lot of fun to watch. It's true that he doesn't use any special effects during his fight scenes, not even wires. Still, I don't mind watching those kinds of fight scenes. I thought the fighting in Crouching Tiger, the Matrix, and Romeo Must Die were pretty awesome

I like his cartoon! I don't think he voices himself, though. I think it's a voice actor who sounds like him.

I've never seen the Jackie Chan cartoon. I don't have a TV!

Azure Turtle, you might be thinking of my fave Jet Li movie. He has a kick butt son in "New Legend of Shaolin". They end up helping a group of 5 boys who have a map tattooed on their backs.

Yep, I doubt he does. Hmm, maybe I'll take a close look at the credits tomorrow. I don't usually read them, I couldn't care less, but I'd like to find out.

Hmmm, no, I'm thinking of another movie. Although "New Legend of Shaolin" sounds interesting after you described it! I'm gonna have to hunt for that the next time I'm in a video store.

The movie I'm thinking of has Jet Li being a top secret agent, and his little son has no idea about it. The kid gets involved in Jet's latest case (I won't say how, in case you haven't seen this yet), and he teams up with another agent. This kid is pretty young, I'd say around seven, and he does his own fight scenes in the movie! He even fights off a few school bullies with his martial arts. Talk about hardcore

I always channel surf when credits start to roll, unless I'm looking for a name. I've never bothered to look at the Jackie Chan Adventures credits either, but I guess I'll have to now, since I'm curious

Nikki!!! Is that you? (it's me, HorseTurtle)

Yes it's me! You found me out! Sadly sometimes I have to pose as someone else to shake off a rather annoying shadower I seem to have picked up in cyber space. The lovely fellow managed to delete all my fanfics from fanfiction.net!

I'd have to say that it's a toss up between First Strike and Who am I? Although I like Twin Dragons.

I was wondering what had happened to your stories! I was so sad, and worried, when I saw them missing.

Ahhh! I really like Jet Li too! After hubby (who's also a very cute Korean) showed me some Jet Li flicks a couple years ago, I'm so enamored. (Before that, I used to like Jacki Chan *innocent smile*)

I will admit, I have a thing for "Lee's" in general. Jet li, Bruce Lee, Jason Lee (and my hubby, YoungKyu Lee)

But the flick I believe Azurte tos talking of, is called "the Enforcer"? I have that DVD, where Li's this secret agent type, and he's got a son and a wife who's very sick and... *shuts up before she ruins it for the others*

I also liked this other early one released in
China, all in Chinese... I forgot the exact name of it, by hubby said the English translation was "the Bodyguard".

To Nun: aww.. they erased all your fanfics from there? That bites indeed! But thanks for letting me know, so I can update your links to Brina's site. (hopefully those will be safe)

Who'd have thought? It doesn't sound like him that's for sure! The english is too well spoken, I always remeber Jackie having trouble with his english.

It must be those microphones they use, with the filters on them. It changes your voice a little, I suppose.
