I can't decide which is more ridiculous, that you think Jackie Chan isn't popular, or that you like Karate Kid
You mean that movie about the drunken fist? That was hilarious, especially when his sidekick and he lose that smuggled ginger root and take a substitute from a houseplant. The one I saw was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drunken_Master_II, instead.
Did you know? If you cultivate the Dao of Jackie you can use a regular wooden chair as the strongest weapon. Epic movement technique which includes chasing scenes, slipping through tight gaps, and falling from the roof will provide you with some objects (mostly wooden or glass) to break your falls. And last but not least... Jackie nose!
Jackies awesome, even though some of his english movies are corny as hell. Go watch Rob-B-hood and City Hunter
@VOLX98 ...I actually know some dirt on Jackie Chan He has only one official son that he acknowledges in front of the press, but it's a known fact among people that he's got lots of other unofficial children from different actresses/models. There was this girl who was one such a child in my old school. Everybody always asked her about her father (Jackie Chan) and she would get so mad because she hated his guts. (He didn't treat her mother right) So now you may know where I'm from \(~.~)ㄴ Ah but that doesn't have to do with his acting, he's a successful actor because he knows how to be funny.
I love his movies and he's a good man but his comments are sometimes controversial ,i've heard he's not very popular with some chinese.
I think he still acts in made for China films. Be prepared for really corny plots and tons of government approved anti-western stuff if you try and watch them. Dude is a paid communist party spokesperson now. They basically roll him out to berate Hong Kong every time there is social movement there.
It's a generational thing the kids coming up now only hear about Jason Stathem... Staterhem... Stayhim... Statellim. Whatever his name is.
