Jackie Chan, Jet Li, and well established martial arts choreographer Yuen Woo-Ping! All they need to do is resurrect Bruce Lee from the dead. :lol:

Yuen Woo-Ping choreographed The Matrix triology, Kill Bill Series, Kung Fu Hustle, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, etc.

I don't think I've ever seen a movie with both of these famous actors / martial artists. Haven't seen a new movie in ages, which is weird, but the combination of these two fellows has piked my interest.

Which one of these two is the better martial artist? and which is the better actor?

Chan is about nine years older then Li, so I reckon Li could be said to be "more in his prime". And well Li has less of an accent and is more of serious character, so I think he is the better actor as well. This is not to rag on Jackie Chan of course..

Better martial artist? Jet Li. Better Actor? Jackie Chan. Better Actor/Martial Artist combination? Jackie Chan.

I might see this movie this weekend hopefully.

The only thing that bothers me about this movie from the trailer.. Is Jackie Chan's accent.

I can update on this -- movie was awesome. Very classic kung fu movie feel, but with awesome effects and fight scenes. Seeing Jet Li and Jackie Chan together in the same film is like some kind of religious experience. Definitely go see it if you haven't!
