Johnatan R.- How much longer are you going to keep doing this stunts? Jackie C.- I think 3-4 more years. This documentary was recorded in 1989. Now we write 2016 and Jackie is making a new movie. This guy is just pure steel and adrenaline.
@crichtonIASA Not Rumble in the Bronx. I would say Who Am I in 1998 was the last movie to have great stunts. Then in 2000s the only good work is New Police Story (2004) and among his American movies, Shanghai Knights (2003) had the most creative stunt work.
@@jp3813 if you actually watched jackies movies anything past 1994 his stunt work was more tame and even though he said he didn't use double which we all know it's a lie he was subtely using more and more doubling even by the late 1990s.
People sneer at Jonathan Ross......but this tv series opened up a world of odd cinema, that belied expected taste.....I value it even more than the excellent offerings of Norman and Kermode.
Because GOD love him and protect him Jackie Chan is something very special i dont believe that we will see again someone like him no one can replace him ...... Look the fight in Police Story part 2 children's playground how is this possible no computer just real Stunt i'm speechless just because this kind of Action Stunts and fights Jackie Chan are a living Legend....love him from my heart ❤
I'm so glad this interview is online. I recorded this on VHS back when it was aired in September 1989, and the tape went awol a few years later. 30 years have passed and Jackie is still making movies. Fantastic career, and quite frankly it's amazing he's still alive after these stunts lol
Thanks for uploading this! Watching this from HK on CNY. I saw this program on Channel 4 in the U.K. when it first aired. Jackie is literally one of a kind and I believe Police Story 1 was his greatest film in terms of the set pieces ie the police raid in the shanty town which is still breathtaking in it’s magnitude with no CGI use. The fight choreography in the final shopping mall scene was incredible and unparalleled in modern day cinema. You can see the injuries he sustained in the outtakes at the end of his films. No one has ever suffered as much as Jackie for his art. Although Tom Cruise makes great action movies, he still has the use of modern CGI and safety wires to protect him from serious harm. Knowing Jackie had none of these in that film makes me admire and appreciate what him and his stunt team gave to HK cinema in the 80s and early 90s. Sadly for us this type of spectacle will never be seen again.
the biggest thing that made the documentary great was Jonathan Ross, I like his style so much ever since he was host on Penn and teller, such a gentlemen with knowledge and skills.
not my kind of girl to be honest. Zhang Zyi has been way hotter back in the day when she's starred in Rush Hour... or has it been RH2? I don't remember...
Jonathan Ross, thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing this brilliant footage with Jackie Chan. What a spectacular interview and what great insights Jackie shared. I think he felt very relaxed with you. Thank you again! Laura
Ohhh I remember watching this when the doco first aired on TV! Thank you for this & you did an amazing job converting this from VHS to digital. Brings back memories. Wow so it was young Jonathan Ross
Thanks for uploading and a nice intro too. A terrific show this was, one of Jonathon Ross's best. It gave the lesser known film stars and film makers, perhaps the more independant ones an opportunity to shine, and be appreciated. Best ones for me were this one with Jackie Chan and Sam Raimi
So glad to see this again takes me back to 1989 when i was 15 i too had this on vhs but its now lost or gone great documentary of jackie chan loved all his movies and he still going man is a legend 👍👍👍
I remember seeing this documentary before I knew who Jackie was (or who Jonathan Ross was, for that matter). I made an effort to find his movies after that - not long before Rush Hour first came out, and his movies were coming to video in America more around that time - and I've been a fan ever since. But I forgot that was him in Cannonball Run!
I remember seeing this when it originally aired. Straight after I remember going to Rainbow Video in Bradford which was at the back of an asian general store. The kind of place where you could rent three movies for 50p (seriously) but you'd never watch the kind of movies that you could get for that price (lots of Indian action movies). But he literally had every Jackie Chan move and I devoured them all over the coming weeks.
28:27 - I love how the other actor continues to kick Jackie while he's legitimately on fire. That's what you do though! You don't want to ruin a potentially awesome take! But at the time I can imagine Jackie saying "I don't need this right now!!!!"
It's hard to watch ur childhood hero getting older day by day. I just love him so much❤. Everyday I'm thinking like if jackies dies i will be broken😖Just thinking about that makes me very upset and I'm crying everyday😭. I know if a person was born he/she need to die some day.if there was a way to give extra life to other person.😄Then i would happily give my life to the legend Jackie chan☺
Thank you. To think that Jackie Chan made 100 films by the time he was 30 and he said for 3 more years and yet he has been working for 30 more years! He is very special. And he is cute. Interestingly, he thinks of himself as ugly but he is kind of cute. He can be good-looking too, I wonder if he were never told. But what is most amazing is that even today there are people who doubt both his and Bruce Lee's skills as martial artists saying they were just actors. I am always stunned when people come up with these ridiculous ideas, when they were always so fast that the moves cannot even be seen on the camera. Anyway, it is great to watch this old documentary with Jonathan Ross. I like the guy he is a clever but he is also a likeable one. Thank you for uploading it, so we could enjoy it too.
11:51 - Cheeky boy. it's an open secret now that we know Hong Kong fight scenes were filmed at 22fps then edited to 24 fps; hence the fast pace fight scene. But this guy was my role model. Loved him.
What impressed me the most early on no one really cared about Jackie in fact he was called box office poison. But he kept making films and became a box office success.
9:37 I saw this on this show and went out and bought this my pocket money as a child from HMV the next week. I saw Police story 1 and knew I would not be disappointed. "I don't want his mother to recognise him!" When I heard the dubbed version of that I want Jackie to beat them up.
We love Jackie so much we started our new film review show with Operation Condor! We breakdown all our top moments from our top Jackie movie and share facts about his legendary man himself. Check out our channel for more! Go Jackie!
24:12 Maggie Cheung can't believe she's features of this video being joined to the scary stunt of Project A part two and interviewing her in English, a funny moment of her and Jackie Chan before the rolling so embarrassed lol!
I Prefer To Watch MR Jackie Chan Movies More Than Any Other Actor Not Only In Asians Or Hollywood Cinema But Also In All Over The Glove The Reason Is Because He Does The Movies Stunts With His Own Self He Never Ever Bring Stunt Men That Is Why He Is Loveable And Meny People Prefer To Watch His Movies And To Watch His Action Stunts I Wish MR Chan Young Chan All The Best In His Career And I Wish Him And All His Family And Relatives All The Best , Greetings From Mahmoud Abdulaziz An Egyptian Who Working In Saudi Arabia And I Wish To See You Soon Either In Egypt Or In Saudi Arabia.
Why only Japanese fans are invited in his birthday party ? Still now. It's discrimination. I once wanted to meet him to an event, but it was only for Japan Fan Club. I was really mad.
Actually...in the Forbidden Kingdom, camera speed had to be SLOWED because both Jackies & Jets movements were too fast and were recorded by the camera as blurs...
Ive watched several BTS and although occasionally some are filmed at 22 and played back at 24, most moves in reality are filmed at regular speed or SLOWED DOWN. These guys are incredibly fast. Ie: in Forbidden Kingdom, Jackie and Jet were told to slow it down because the camera was catching a blur instead of the action making the total scene unclear.
Come on, Jackie is not ugly and he been with many beautiful and famous asian actors. I wonder if he had tried other girls beside asians. He is great singer also. He seem better with his english as young, than he was later on.
Jackie knew back then he wasn't going to be a leading man, a romantic Hollywood lead, he was an action and comedy star and he stuck with that. I would've liked to have seen Jackie play a bad guy or some darker theme movie but he never did, he was too soft for Hollywood unlike Jet Li or Bruce Lee.
I think Jonathan Ross deserves some credit for introducing Asian cinema (e.g. Hong Kong action movies and Japanese anime) to the UK.
Yes!
Johnatan R.- How much longer are you going to keep doing this stunts?

To be honest Jackie was bout right, his work since 1994 has really dropped in quality. I wish he'd just retire now.
