More quotes by Jackie Chan
I make American films for American audiences and Asian films for Asian audiences.
Jackie Chan
For me the greatest source of income is still movies. Nothing - stocks, financial speculation, real estate speculation or businesses - makes more money for me than making movies.
Jackie Chan
In every movie I do have a dialogue.
Jackie Chan
The action star's life is very short. Back in Asia, I can do whatever I want to do. I'm the producer, I'm the director, I can do so many things, but in Hollywood any time I present a script they say: No, no, no, Rush Hour 3, Rush Hour 4.
Jackie Chan
I know that eventually, I'll have to change my life and my career, but I've got a lot of good years left in me yet.
Jackie Chan
A lot of people ask me when I do a stunt, 'Jackie, are you scared?' Of course I'm scared. I'm not Superman.
Jackie Chan
China produces 600 movies in a year, of which 3 or 4 go abroad, while of the several hundred they make, we only bring in 50. It's 50 now, but that could be expanded later on.
Jackie Chan
I'm tired of fighting. I've always known that I can't be an action star all my life.
Jackie Chan
I really hope someday in Hollywood, some producer or director will hire me only to do drama.
Jackie Chan
American stuntmen are smart - they think about safety. When they do a jump in a car, they calculate everything: the speed, the distance... But in Hong Kong, we don't know how to count. Everything we do is a guess. If you've got the guts, you do it. All of my stuntmen have gotten hurt.
Jackie Chan
I'm sure that Zhang Lanxin could be an outstanding action movie actress. For one thing, she wouldn't require a stand-in. As for Yao Xingtong, she might be an excellent action performer in her next life.
Jackie Chan
It is totally different making films in the East than in the West. In the East, I make my own Jackie Chan films, and it's like my family. Sometimes I pick up the camera because I choreograph all the fighting scenes, even when I'm not fighting. I don't have my own chair. I just sit on the set with everybody.
Jackie Chan
Everyone is saying that I'm retiring, but I want to solemnly declare, that I don't want to retire, I just want to do things a bit less dangerous to my body, less dangerous action.
Jackie Chan
I want to build up my philosophy... my philosophy with kung fu is to respect people.
Jackie Chan
Olympics for me is love, peace, united.
Jackie Chan
American movies show you how to fight and break armsand necks. I want to make the action in my movies like dancing.
Jackie Chan
As one tale ends, so another begins.
Jackie Chan
Being still and doing nothing are two completely different things
Jackie Chan
Actually, the few good Chinese movies that foreign countries choose to import are Zhang Yimou's, and mine, a few directors, but how many movies can we make in a year? We can only make a few, while they turn them out continuously.
Jackie Chan
I have a metal plate in my head, and can pop my shoulder and pop it back.
