Action wrote:The movie you're talking about is the one he did with Owen Wilson. The name wasn't Chong Wang, it was Chon Wang, and what do you mean by Wyatt Earp? In the movie you're talking about he ended up being wanted alongside "Roy O'Bannon" :) Anyways, the movie was called Shanghai Noon


Ok, I just spelled the Chon wrong. But my memory wasn't tricking me on Roy O'Bannon revealing his real name was "Wyatt Earp" at the end. I had to double check: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shanghai_Noon

Has anyone seen "The Forbidden Kingdom"? Was it any good?

Shanghai Noon and Shanghai Knights were both excellent Chan movies. The name "Chon Wang" was so funny because of the spin they put on it to sound exactly like John Wayne. At the end of Shanghai Knights, there is a particularly funny bit about "motion pictures" and the pair heading to Hollywood. This movie really played on names such as "Charlie Chaplin", "Sherlock Holmes", and other well-known names. I loved the 2 movies.
Jackie Chan has always been funny in everything he's been in. I first saw him in Cannonball Run 1 and 2 as a driver, and his fight scenes were hilarious!

My favorite movie of his is Mr. Nice Guy.

According to IMDB, Chan has been acting since 1962, and is a writer, producer, director, and actor. His long list of accomplishments is impressive.

I was watching Enter the Dragon few days ago and guess who I saw? Yes, Jackie Chan has a tiny role in the movie! He is one of the bad guys who attack Bruce Lee sister ;)

Maybe I'm just wierd, but I don't enjoy any martial arts movies at all. While I'm sure that Jackie Chan is a wonderful actor I just never got interested at all in any of his movies. I just don't go for any type of movie that involves alot of fighting.

I love watching his movies, just for the sheer fun of it, the unbelievable stunts and all. They turn out to be rather funny at times too.
