Very difficult to understand American audience, what they like, what they don't like. Some movie I like very much, it doesn't work. Some movie I don't like, it gets big box office. Very difficult.

More quotes by Jackie Chan
Sometimes you think the movie is good and BOOM! Sometimes you think it's no good. BAAM! The movie business is a big gamble. You never know.
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've seen too many ups and downs in the movie industry.
Jackie Chan
In every movie I do have a dialogue.
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
Why did I become Jackie Chan? Mostly because I work very hard. When people were sleeping, I was still training.
Jackie Chan
When I am making a film, I know what to do in front of a camera. What frightens me are the scenes with dialogue. Sometime they really want me to speak perfectly and I don't like that.
Jackie Chan
My schedule goes: wake up, running, exercise, downstairs, running shoes off, then to the shower. That's the Jackie Chan diary.
Jackie Chan
Chinese people need to be controlled otherwise, they will do whatever they want.
Jackie Chan
I now have two different audiences. There's the one that has been watching my action films for 20 years, and the American family audience. American jokes, less fighting.
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
Sometimes I do need to go to karaoke, sometimes I need to relax.
Jackie Chan
Don't try to be like Jackie. There is only one Jackie. Study computers instead.
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
Most of the time, I'm not even working I'm just helping people, because I feel that I am too lucky.
Jackie Chan
The kids never listen to you, especially the youngest ones.
Jackie Chan
I hope I can make some Hollywood-type action films like 'Batman' or 'Spiderman', action films like that. With some wire work, maybe wearing a mask. Like that.
Jackie Chan
When life knocks you down, you can choose to get back up.
Jackie Chan
I never wanted to be the next Bruce Lee. I just wanted to be the first Jackie Chan.
Jackie Chan
The ads all call me fearless, but that's just publicity. Anyone who thinks I'm not scared out of my mind whenever I do one of my stunts is crazier than I am.
