X Vs X

[dr.neo]

In this situation X is the unknown variable that I will plug in with two different things. I am going to pick a situation once a week and I want to see what everyone thinks about it. Examples on this are who would win in a fight or who is a better actor. Things like that. I'll change the match up once a week and decide the winner.

The first match up is.... Who was more entertaining to watch as a martial arts actor: Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, or Jet Li.

Also I know that there are more matial artist actors out there. I chose these three so I dont want to hear anyone say what about this guy?!

Discuss.

Bruce lee is without a doubt the greatest martial artist ever, of that there is no arguing.

The most entertaining martial artist was Jackie chan though, because of his team work with Chris Tucker in Rush Hour 1, 2 , and (now in theaters) 3.

Rush Hour 2 and 3 are two of Jackie Chan's WORST movies. If you want to see Chan at his peak, you gotta look into his older stuff (before 1990).

"The Legend of Drunken Master" (Drunken Fist 2) was Chan's best performance. The last 20-minute fight sequence is still unmatched by anything I've seen since, even Ong Bak.

Agreed. Jackie Chan may not be a true martial artist, but he is easily the most entertaining. If you think the Rush Hours are the highlights of Jackie Chan, take a look at the multitude of films that he has starred in before then. Although, having it dubbed makes it sound a little off, so I personally prefer subs, if I can get it. Amazing stuff.

Shouldn't the title be X vs Y?

haha I thought of that before I scrolled down, you beat me to it yep, X vs Y, different variables.

My bad. I like Jackie Chan much better because of all the things he uses. He'll pick up anything to fight with. Drunken master was really good. A lot of his older things were awesome.

I'm a pretty big Jackie Chan fan, and I'd have to disagree with you about Rush Hour 2/3 being two of his worst movies. The Tuxedo, Around the World in 80 Days, The Medallion were all awful... I didn't even think Mr. Nice Guy was very good. The Rush Hour movies were very successful, and are some of my favorite of his movies (drunken master, armour of god also).
