So who here knows which movies are his best work. I did not realize he had so many movies.
So far I have "collected"
The Legend of Fong Sia Yuk
Kiss of the Dragon
The Shoalin Temple
Black Mask 1 and 2
Fist of Legend
Legend of Red Dragon
Kung Fu Cult Master
The Invincible Shaolin
I have not got a chance to watch any of them yet, I just started "collecting" them last night but I plan to start sometime tonight. Are any of these good and what others should I search for?
Also what Jon Woo non U.S. titles would one recomend. I already have 'The Killer' and its rated kick ass!

"Hero" is really the only movie with Jet Li that i like. I love the music in it. But no one will have better martial arts movies than Bruce Lee.

The reason i did'nt like the one or any film in that vain is whats the point in having someone whos awesome at martial arts then just have them dangling from a rope or in matrix slow mo for the entire film seems pointless to me.

Hero was amazing! One of the best films of last year IMO.
- - - have better martial arts movies than Bruce Lee.
Uma did a good job! lol Did anyone else pick up on the homage to Bruce with that yellow jump suit she wore? Of course you did

I cant remember if one of those titles are the U.S titles of this film but:
Tai Chi Master is very impressive. Its directed by Yuen Woo Ping (the Fights Choreographer of such films Crouching Tiger, Kung Fu Hustle etc. Michelle Yeoh also stars in it.
Fist of Legend is probably his best, but the U.S version is horribly cut.
You have to get Iron Monkey. doesnt star Jet Li, but it does star Donnie Yen who as in Hero.
It could be called a prequel of sorts to the Once Upon A Time in China series.

Strange, I think my girlfriend and I might have made what some people call a "mistake".
After reading the above post saying that he was good in that movie, I checked my RAM if in fact he was in it and my brain said "no he wasnt".
So then I refrenced my Chinese girlfriend and asked her "Li Lian Jie, shi bu shi zai nage Ying Xiong, nage dianying nage Ying Xiong?" And she replied "bu".
So it seems I was "wrong" and he is in fact in that movie.
The more you know as they say!

How do I get reputation power? You seem to have a lot Mels... maybe you could hook me up?
I like power just as much as the next guy you know.
Hey, what can you do with that power? Can you boss people around or something like that? Or is it more symbolic or something?

Big rep makes for a ginormus E-penis. Sadly, the huge e-penis is mostly for show. Its all bling bling. You can flex on new members with a huge bad rep smackdown if they cause trouble! Being smacked around with a massive e-penis may be some peeps cream dream so be on gaurd.
You can get loads of rep by being friendly and helping people out who ask questions.

Big E-Penis? Answering questions you say?
Hmmmmm..
Being friendly I can do, I'm not always that consistent though...
But, on the other hand, I can answer questions till the proverbial cows go to their proverbial homes!
Here is a question, is saying "proverbial" before using a non-proverbial cliché chichéd?
Or is it just stupid?
I'll give you a point if you can answer that question without sounding clichéd!
Edit:Ill give you 2 points if you can answer the question without using the word cliché!
