Awesome. I love his movies. The man is amazing. His outtakes at the end of his movies show how difficult his stunts really are. He has lots of broken bones to prove it.
thanks cogerson. i saw 10 including 9 of top 10. no 10s, no 9s, no favorites. 2 eights kung fu panda 3 and who am i(a hidden gem) chan is consistently entertaining tons of reviews over 60%. sadly i am not a martial arts fan nor an anime fan.
Excellent UMR page
ooh Jackie Chan, that’s more like it Brucie boy especially after all these obscure ‘never heard of them’ Hirschhorn Bible actors you’ve been UMR’ing the past few weeks. [cue gasps and cries of “hang the unbeliever!”) 😉
I’m kidding of course. This page must have been a challenge, kudos for finding all the box office grosses.
I’ve seen 42 films that I know of for sure out of the 85 on the chart. I must have seen more in my video renting days of the 80s.
Favorites include – Enter the Dragon (my no.1 favorite martial arts film), The Big Brawl (aka Battle Creek Brawl), Police Story series, Armor of God 1-2, Rumble in the Bronx, The Protector, The Young Master, Snake in the Eagles Shadow, Drunken Master, The Fearless Hyena, Shanghai Noon & Knights, The Cannonball Run, Rush Hour 1-2-3 and Kung Fu Panda 1-2-3.
Chan was a teenager in Enter the Dragon, Bruce Lee breaks his neck in a fight scene.
I haven’t seen Earth: One Amazing Day, I’m assuming it’s a documentary?
Impressive work Bruce. Vote Up!
Hey Steve.
1. Thanks for checking out our Jackie Chan page.
2. Wow…a confirmed 42 movies seen…..that is a lot….but he made a lot of movies…and is still making a lot of movies.
3 I have seen 17 of his movies. I have actually only seen one of his Rush Hour movies. I need to check out parts 2 and 3.
4. As for box office….we had to create….ok….WoC had to create a new table that would only show the adjusted “Worldwide Box Office” numbers. I could only find domestic grosses on about a third of his movies.
5. I have not seen many of your favorites…..but I did recently watch his The Medallion…so maybe I am catching up.
6. Finally….as for Earth: One Amazing Day….that is actually a movie that WoC put it in the database…I am pretty sure that it is an IMAX movie…though I am not 100% sure.
Good stuff as always.
