Happy Birthday Jackie Chan!

Today one of the most famous martial arts movies star is turning 58 - Chan The Man is getting older and wiser, as he point out some time ago that "Chinese Zodiac" will be his last action movie. 

Anyway, he proved to be quite versatile actor, starring in both drama and action movies with decent success (Shinjuku Incident & Little Big Soldier for example). 

I would like to wish him plenty of health, lots of happiness, discovering new talents for the martial arts scene and not to go off camera too soon. 

Happy Birthday!!! Kung hei!!!

 58 is just a number and not something which might worry Mr. Chan, however with a career so active and demanding, he would most certanly need lots of HP (health points), to achieve more accomplishments in the RPG called Life.

Don't worry, be happy and sing in the rain...

For the new ones - New Kids in FoShan, for the old ones - Retro Fu, and for the news - Strike a news. 

Hope that these changes are for the better and my blog will become colourful and refreshing for all fans throughout the world. 

Peace. Over and out.

Jackie Chan Filmography

Being an avid fan of Jackie since 1987 (when I saw "Armour of God"), I am surprised that i didn't put his fimography earlier on my blog. However, now I'm sharing this with you and all fans of martial arts movies, so we can discuss his appearances since the early years when jumping off clock tower was easy as pie.
