When I look back to when I was young, when parents said no they meant no, no matter how much you cried and how many times tears would run out, it would be useless. We knew that losing our temper and crying would not get us what we wanted so we wouldn't dare to lose our temper or cry easily.
One thing I did pick up from Cannonball Run was the use of bloopers and outtakes under the final credits, which I've done in all my movies since.
I know I have to run 20 more minutes if I eat ice cream. Basically, I eat everything, but I just do more training.
My schedule goes: wake up, running, exercise, downstairs, running shoes off, then to the shower. That's the Jackie Chan diary.
It's hardest to get a girl to smile. She just doesn't smile. She looks at the people manning the cameras like they're idiots. She would smile right after we run out of film.
Today when our actors go to the U.S., what movies can they make? Can they appear in 'Titanic'? Could they do 'Kramer vs. Kramer'? No. No actor could do it,
Breathing hurts. ... It hurts to draw my fist. It's been hard filming fight scenes these past two days.
When I was a child, I was very poor and wanted everything. So when I got money, I began buying things.
One day, I want to make a PG film.
I want to try something different in Hollywood, to tell the audience I am not just an actor star - I am an actor, too.
I really like children to watch my movies.
I just make good movies. That's the way I thank my fans.
I feel like I have lived all over the world since I get to go everywhere to film.
If everyone does some good, think of what a good world this will be.
