I read an interview where Jackie Chan said he would not make another traditional martial arts movie because it is too difficult. Anyone know what he may have meant?<br><br>subgum

When did he say this? If recently, obviously his age would not allow him to do what he did in Drunken Master 25 years ago.<br><br>

I think it was in 1999. I was wondering if it was due to the physical demands or the technical aspects of filming a good martial arts movie. <br><br>subgum

Interesting point skycloud. I guess it depends on whether you find a good revenge (good vs, evil) movie more apealing or some other genre.I still like the good guy to win but I enjoy seeing him overcome and struggle to succeed. Stunts without a good story are much less apealing.<br><br>subgum
