Jackie Chan :) Who doesn't love this guy. He's awesome. I'm sure everyone loves him. A Wonderful human being. And Shoko Nakagawa looking very gorgeous.

" I'm sure everyone loves him."

As much as everybody loves any pair of smart pants that holds passports/green cards in Australia, US and Hong-Kong, plus the fortune to get away with everything (and rumors that he used that power) and comes to say that Chinese citizens should just be happy with their dictature and not express criticism, that they should be punished for demonstrating, etc. His being in an historic movie screams "cheesy propaganda flick". I have not seen it, I will stand corrected if that's not the case.

When an empire is torn between corruption and power, a revolution starts.

Chan's 100th film - wow!

I hate to be negative here, but I'm a fan of Makiko Esumi, and this is not a good photo of her.

@Cos - you sound jealous. His family lived in Australia for many years so I don't see why he shouldn't have an Ozzie passport. It's hard to tell anything from the short Japanese trailer I just saw, so will have to wait for a longer trailer or the movie.

I like Jackie Chan's film's and his acting work but I agree with Cos's comments about him kissing up to the Chinese government. He has everything in life someone can hope for, which can't be said for many Chinese people.

Is Jackie Chan still doing his own stunts? How long does he want to go on? The guy is indestructible, or what.

It must be said, I saw Shoko Nakagawa and hoped it to be a live-action Gurren Lagann movie. However, this does look pretty damn cool :P
