Help! I'm a prisoner in a Chinese Wankery!
Jackie Chan, romantic lead or laundry mat [sic] owner?

You decide.

Of course, people who don't speak clear English never get romantic leads.

...must...not...go...wank...at...morons...

Didn't you know that every movie made outside the United States doesn't count? Even the ones in England, where they speak that fake English.

Dude, I thought we were the ones who spoke fake English?

Jackie Chan is no DeNiro but he's no Steven Segal either. Jeebus. And the nastiness.

Oh, man. They need to LAY OFF the Chanmeister. He's ubercool on so many levels.

I will resist the urge to go over there and wank myself. It's a struggle. I will prevail.

Chan is hotter than Cruise. Why? Because he can kick severe ass, and that's good enough for me :)

*Resists the urge with you*.

Although it does make me cringe every time I see him as a romantic lead. I prefer to see him kick ass.

You know, I wouldn't be whining if only playing kung fu masters made me millions of dollars.

This would almost make sense if Chan hadn't made most of his money outside of the US. Except he did, so it doesn't.

besides, with limited english skills, theres only so much you can do

I'd like to see this fucker be forced to learn Cantonese phonetically and see what roles he/she gets cast as in the Hong Kong industry.

If he were really serious, he could form an organization with his OWN money, and take asian actors/actresses under his wing and have workshops on different roles.

Wow, you mean like those acting, opera, theater and kung fu schools Chan owns and runs back home? *gasp* No! Never!

STOP THE PRESSES. How are you gonna make a sequel NINETEEN years later?!?!

You mean like the million-dollar Zatoichi film industry that resurrects itself every 16 years or so? Not very fucking hard.

>_> I'm more of a Tony Leung and Andy Lau fan, but this... -_-;;

And I love his Hongkong movies more than his Hollywood ones, but hey. *sighs*

Now give me a Hollywood movie like First Strike or Police Story 3, and we're all good.

"Why don't you, play an American, Mr. Ch...oh that's right. You're Asian. CYA."

I think this gets the prize for "most concise mix of general stupidity, xenophobia, subtle racism, and out-and-out failure to pay attention to his own nation's demographics." Honorable mention goes to "I don't like foreigners." (Aaaaand, I'm thinking they don't much care for you.)

Itsme_be is hereby officially invited to bite me.

Also, damn near everybody on that thread is a wanking moron. What's up with that? And why all the Chan-hate? The man is awesome.

From the "tighty-whities" OP's LJ (http://www.livejournal.com/users/worldofkarma/):

I couldn't decide whether I was watching the BET/Soul Train Awards or MTV. And if I never see Beyonce/Jay-Z/Usher/P. Diddy again, it will be too soon. Us whities were sadly under-represented this year. But yay for No Doubt taking two awards, and for Jet winning! Amazing band, those crazy Aussies!

It appears that movies aren't her only gripe.

How sad it must be to turn on the TV and find ... gasp! Other ethnicities.

Since TV and movies are out, I wonder what she does for fun .... oh. This. (http://www.livejournal.com/users/worldofkarma/10352.html?mode=reply)

Welcome to the world of white girl entertainment. Yay!

Let's see if they can show me ONE US action star that does action as good as Jackie Chan *and* still speak understable English after only a few years of study. Jeez.

I've not seen a Hollywood chase scene that beats *any* of Jackie's.

Hollywood has killed my favourite HK stars *cries her a river for Jackie and Chow Yun Fatt*

And Jet Li. Romeo Must Die? Bleh. Kiss of the Dragon? Meh. Cradle 2 the Grave? *Whimper*

Sucks that his best role in Hollywood so far is playing the heavy in Lethal Weapon 4.
