Not really a question. I just thought you thought of it because of a somewhat similar idea.

City-Hunter is City-Hunter.

Jet Li is a martial-artist too and might just be more talented, nah'm'sayin'?

Idk if he's more talented at martial arts, maybe, but it's not he has loads of realism still. Jackie Chan is an all-around action star, head stunt and fight choreographer (so many bad Hollywood fight scenes would be good if he was even just in charge of the camerawork and nothing else), can make movies with or without SFX, made way more movies and plays good characters (eg he never kills people or uses guns). Jackie Chan would get rekd by GSP, but Jackie Chan is still 100x the movie star, so I'm not too bothered about how well they can actually fight.

Go watch The Raid and The Night Comes For Us. You got Netflix? Well, they're on kssiaiasn too (decipher the code).

And he nearly got himself killed, was it really worth it?

Also the gai is a massive POS, so Jet Li >>> Jackie Chan.

Jackie Chan was an extra in old Bruce Lee movies lol (IIRC).
Yeh, that vid mentioned it, there was more than one movie I think. I saw a scene where he got taken out by like one jab. Talking of extras, his whole team got battered in his movies. I saw a movie where he was reunited with his old crews, from young guys to the old guys, he cried and his big nose got wet.

Oh yeh Jackie is a sick driver too. His driving stunts are real too, like when his car goes on the wall. Roller skates, car, foot, jumping, umbrella hanging on bus, top of bus, sliding on a pole, hanging on helicopter, cycling....he uses every mode of transport.

Well his movies are superior to Jet's, so yeh. And guys like Jet Li lost their value once the UFC became mainstream knowledge. Jackie has stunt and prop work, so his movies can stand the test of time.

POS how? He has the Jackie Chan Foundation. Jet Li is a bum in comparison, although I'm not sure how it's relevant to his movie acting or production.

Would you rather be Jet Li's character with gay hair, the MC is some random guy from New York (bulletproof monk) and you do some poncey moves or would you rather be Jackie Chan's characters, rolling down huge hills, jumping through sheets of glass, beating up crowds in the street with your punches, kicks, knees, skiing then jumping onto a helicopter, you're a good cop, disarming guys with guns and then beating them up, kicking guys down escalators, hitting people with massive ladders (WWE but better), still winning the fight after falling on hot coals, beating a stronger opponent after 10 min of getting whooped, ripped asf (in Fearless Hyena), jumping in massive tree off a cliff, running down a building....which is closer to an anime MC? Jet Li is like Mr Satan, Jackie is Goku.

Jet Li was a prodigy, scouted by his country. That's how you know you're good.
Jackie was very harshly raised in his school to become a martial arts and stunt actor. He became a superstar, along with a couple of his classmates, true brotherhood. Then he became a builder in Australia.

Zabit has cooler hair than Jet Li and would KO him. Zabit>Jet Li.

GOAT

The more you watch Jackie the more you see small things that are easy to take for granted. He has countless stunts that aren't even considered noteworthy in his movies, but would be the greatest moment of Jet Li's movie life if he did them.
Jackie Chan is scum. Jet Li is Gawd.
Wtf lol. So harsh. He's a UNICEF ambassador. Jet Li's a bum, more like Get (fucked) Li.
