<br>Finally someone mentions the real good ones! I really like Jackie's early 90s work the most. <br><br>I'm talking Police Story 2, Operation Condor (big budget, great fighting and stunts), City Hunter (great cast and humor), Super Cop (great fighting, stunts and even a well made script), and my personal favorite - Twin Dragons. I can't believe no one has mentioned this one. The fact that Jackie didn't direct or write the script in this one makes a big difference, its story is well made, the humor is great, the other performances are great too (where else can you see Jackie getting it on w/ Jet Li's wife?)<br><br><br>And personally I find Drunken Master II over rated. :P<br><br> <br><br><i><b>-Xiao Ka</b></i>

I never really liked Van Damme, but I did like some other ones way worse than him. I also started watching really stupid American movies that had some Oriental elements in them (Big Trouble in Little China). Luckily, Swordsman II changed all that.<br><br>

Drunken Master 2, of course.<br><br>Before I saw DM2, I absolutely did not like Jackie Chan. (Nevertheless I watched many of his filmed and was impressed with the death-defying stunts, but never really liked his personality and style) But today, Jackie Chan is among my preferred Asian actors.<br><br>

Nina Li, who played the short haired love interest of 'bad Jackie' in Twin Dragons is Jet Li's wife. <br><br><br><br><br><i><b>-Xiao Ka</b></i>

Tough call. As there are many of his films I like. I would have to go with Drunken Master 2. It took awhile to finally choose one but that's gotta be it. BTW did anyone else like Thunderbolt? I can't understand it but I really enjoyed it for some reason.<br><br>
