ANNOUNCEMENT: Here's Jackie!

Hey everyone! It's time to add a new segment to the blog called, Here's Jackie! I've been meaning to attempt to run through all of Jackie Chan's films, covering his vast catalogue of fantastic creations, and I figured I'd make it as simple as possible and numerically go through each of them.

I was initially going to start chronologically from his earliest films to his later ones, but thought that might be kind of taxing on myself if I didn't feel like handling a particular movie at a particular moment of time. So the way I'm going to approach this epic undertaking, is to randomly browse through his extensive filmography and pick one that tickles my fancy, eventually covering all the man has done. Hopefully this technique will enable me to push through this project and successfully see it to the end. It may take me years to get through all of Jackie's flicks, but it will be quite an accomplishment on my part, and a valuable collection of information for people out there wanting to have a sort of Jackie Chan Film Guidebook at their disposal.

I've scoured the library and the first Jackie Chan film that I'm going to review is going to be Project A. Why not start out with one of his best efforts, right? I'll be posting the review to Project A very soon, but before I do, here's the list of 70 of Jackie Chan's core works in the cinema world for you to look over. This isn't the entire list of film's that the legendary man has created or been a part of (I think the count is up to 100), but these are the ones that feature him in abundance and define the man's journey from humble extra to full blown superstar. I'm also taking requests, so if you see a film on the list and you want a review for it, comment below and I'll be sure to add it to the top of the list for future write-ups.

Wish me luck on this ridiculous undertaking. I'm going to need it!
