I shall also quote this.

Besides, Bruce...Jet Li. I'd say Jackie Chan, but none of his more recent flicks feature hardly any martial arts.

Bruce Lee due to the fact thathe was an actual martial art master whoactually did those things in his movies IRL and during screenings.

1. Bruce Lee
2. Jackie Chan
3. ?
4. ?

Bruce Lee is the best, but not the best actor.

Jackie Chan is the best actor. I mean, he's spectacular in that he performs excellently AND acts with superstar prowess at the same time. Shame that it looks like he finally bit the wrong worm (And Disney hooked him in the gut)

Jet Li sucks. I haven't been able to sit through a single movie of his. Chris Farley was better as the Great White/Fat Ninja. (Though it's sort of unfair to compare hardly anybody to Chris Farley. The man was quite superior to most mortal actors in every way)

Agreed.

Watch actual dramas where Bruce Lee acts, not his 'famous five'.

Anyway I like Jet Li in asian films.

Gotta go with the Chantastic one.

**Breine** · 01-20-2005, 06:42 PM

Hmm, my favourites are Jackie Chan, Michelle Yeoh and Zhang Ziyi.

Jackie chan for comedy but when things get serious my fav is jet li

A couple of other good ones would have to be Chris "Red Dragon" Cassamassa, Robin Shou, and Mako.

Cassamassa played as a very convincing Scorpion in the original Mortal Kombat Movie. Shou played as Liu Kang in both MK films. And Mako, he's been in more movies than I can even count.

Bruce Lee, and the Black guy that was with him in Enter the Dragon. I can't remember his name, but he was amazing. Sonny Chiba is great too.

**Lucky Charms** · 02-12-2005, 04:32 AM

Bruce Lee who starred in Enter the Dragon.

And after his death.. his small screen successor "Bruce Li" who starred in my favorite kung fu film "Bruce Lee: The Man, The Myth, The Legend" (Was a movie about Bruce Lee's life)

Present day actor would have to be Jet Lee (Now spelled Jet Li)
I enjoyed his Once upon a time in China movie series

Actress of course is the stunning Zhang Ziyi..
