notes

I think this needs to be edited so that the notes section isn't so wide. I would do it myself but im not so good at editing boxes, they go all wrong if I fiddle with the code! - Nathan 18:03, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Jackie Chan: My Story

Where does this go? 132.205.44.5 22:31, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Jackie Chan: My Story at IMDb
  • Well, My Stunts is on the list, so I guess My Story should be too. I'll add it. Gram123 13:49, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Clarity

Visually too much smudged into a cell -- broke out alternate titles language and AKA, and separated roles one position per line in a cell with line breaks "<br />". Added proportions to columns with "width=n%". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.165.253.170 (talk) 21:21, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Traces of a Dragon: Jackie Chan & His Lost Family DVD

This DVD with a 2005 date on it is available at: http://www.jackiechanproducts.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=375; and it apears to be the 2009 "Unconfirmed future films" entry described as "untitled (Possibly Jackie Chan My Story 2)", and is a film about Chan's father (and mother) as described.

It is an amazing story, and could be called "My Story 3".

It also needs to be moved to the 2005 listings.

It is in Cantonese and Mandarin with English subtitles; even though it was released in Germany.

TV appearances

I've added as many TV appearances as possible. People may want this section to become it's own article with links between the two, and one on the Jackie Chan article, but I'll leave it here for now. I'm sure Chan will have made many more TV appearances, especially in Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, Japan and S. Korea. Hopefully someone multi-lingual might be able to help out with that.

Imitators and rip-offs section cut

I've cut this section from the article, but pasted here until we decide what to do with it. My thoughts are:

  1. If a film does not feature Chan at all, it does not belong in a Jackie Chan filmography. If you want to note these films somewhere, they should be in a separate article, and should be referenced to give evidence that they actually are trying to ripoff Chan. A link to such an article could be included within this article.
  2. If a film features footage of Chan playing on a TV screen or in a cinema etc in the background, and this footage was not specifically recorded for the film in question, then it does not belong in a Jackie Chan filmography. We wouldn't put City Hunter in a Bruce Lee filmography, just because a bit of footage from one of his films plays on the cinema screen.
  3. If a film features footage of Chan as though it were part of the plot, even though it may have been cut from a different film and amalgamated by the studio without Chan's involvement, it can be included in the general Filmography. However, a note should be added in the Notes column to explain. See Fearless Hyena 2 and Master with Cracked Fingers in the article for examples.
Ok, here's what I cut:

Imitators and rip-offs

Because of Jackie Chan's success around the world, people have tried imitating him similar to Bruceploitation. Many of the movies listed in this section also only feature Jackie on the cover, but Jackie isn't seen at all or very briefly seen and are considered "rip-offs".

Year Title Information
1979 Dance of the Drunk Mantis This title was marketed as Drunken Master 2, however it did not star Jackie Chan rather an imitator although the old man did re-appear. Many other movies were released like this one such as Story of the Drunken Master and World of the Drunken Master and Drunken Fist Boxing and many others (see the Drunken Master page for full list) but neither was actually a Jackie Chan movie. It wasn't until 1994, that Jackie made the "true" sequel to his Drunken Master.
Snake in the Eagle's Shadow 2 Marketed as a seuel to Snake in the Eagle's Shadow, this movie only contains an imitator similar to Dance of the Drunk Mantis/Drunken Master 2 (both made in the same year).
1984 Jackie Chan's Crime Force The movie's plot is about a chemical plant as a target of seven female prisoners of war who have escaped and each specially trained in her own method of warfare. The movie was marketed as a Jackie Chan movie only because Jackie sang in the music video of the movie.
1989 Jackie Chan's Second Strike Originally called Final Run it was re-released "Jackie Chan's Second Strike" and marketed as a sequel to Jackie Chan's First Strike. However Jackie does not appear in this movie at all except for little footage of him.
1990 Master of Disaster The movie is basically two movies mixed together. "New Kids in Town" and the Chinese version of Jackie Chan's "The Protector" are mixed together to create this movie, however the scenes with Jackie Chan do not fit in with the movie at all.

Inclusion of earlier films

The films in which he has acted in under the name "Chan Kong Sang" should perhaps be added as well? -- 李博杰  | —Talk contribs email guestbook complaints 12:58, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Karate Kid 2

should have a place in Unconfirmed future films-section and not in filmography188.25.50.240 (talk) 21:27, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

This is a mess

Why in the world do you list all those roles in each movie and tons of uncredited stuff plus movies that he was rumored to be in, one list he was the caterer? This article SUCKS! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.240.222.194 (talk) 05:33, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Main role

Is there somewhere an info in which movies he play main role? Would be great to mark such movies in the list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.135.54.213 (talk) 22:46, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

"Original title"

For many of the more recent films, the English title is the "original" title. We either need a new heading for the column or to otherwise indicate that the English title is the original. Thoughts? - SummerPhDv2.0 00:30, 18 April 2018 (UTC)

New headline? I think thats easier than divide the filmography into Chan'S Western produced films vs Chinese/Hong Kong produced films. g-DoctorHver (talk) 04:57, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

SNAFU

I used a translator for "狂怒沙暴" in English it translates to "furious sandstorm." SNAFU links to the article on the acronym. Plus, there is no reference stating "SNAFU" is the name of the film. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 19:12, 26 March 2021 (UTC)
