Jackie Chan to Produce 10 Films in China

HONG KONG -- Jackie Chan said on his Web site Tuesday that he has a new film company in China.

"I just started a company in China and I will be producing 10 films," Chan said on his official Web site.

The action star, who is currently filming "Rush Hour 3" said he plans to use vacation time to scout talent and ideas for the 10 projects.

"I need to meet the new directors. I need to read the screenplays and listen to ideas for more screenplays. I need to look at director reels to hire more directors for this big project," he said.

Chan also said he is scheduled to make a commercial with retired boxer George Foreman in China, but didn't give details.

Chan has continued to make Chinese-language movies alongside his Hollywood films. He recently released the action comedy "Rob-B-Hood," about a group of kidnappers who have a change of heart after stealing a baby and don't turn him over to their employers.

what about chuck norris? havent heard anything about him on this site lately...
what do you guys think of him?
i personaly say that he wasnt all that bad, its not everyday where you see a western cowboy kind of guy doing martial arts. chuck norris is the only texan i have ever seen doing spinning side kicks, and karate chops. but nowdays, his spinning side kicks are like a foot high and look like crap. anyways, i think he deserves to be thought and said about. i know i defanatley like him more then steven seagal. what do you guys think?

I posted this on another message board. It's an interesting story, and I hope to mail Frazier on his website to ask him about it:

This could also be called " UFC vs. The Kumite."

I read somewhere that karateka/kickboxer/streetfighter Zane Frazier, who would later go on to fight in the first ever Ultimate Fighting Championship, got into a brawl with Frank Dux, whom the BloodSport movies were based on.

Supposedly, Dux had been harassing Frazier over the phone about a dispute over the ownership of a martial arts school. Frazier got fed up and confronted Dux in a hotel. A brawl started after Dux had shoved Frazier; the skilled kickboxer that is Frazier easily got the upper-hand over Frank Dux. After the ordeal, Dux sued Frazier and the hotel; things weren't straightned out for several years, despite the supposedly comical way Dux handled himself during the trials.

On the plus side, the event prompted UFC recruiters to put Frazier into the UFC tournament; that, and the fact that he was " a karate guy who could grapple."

Movie: "undefeatable" (1994).
