Pre-choreographed kung-fu routines performed in the street like street theatre. A typical performance could start with a little Chinese stall owner being oppressed by a cruel rich man and his laughing cronies. In leaps the honourable hero to teach them all a lesson with crane style and bad dubbing. Props
such as collapsing stops, Chinese chairs and inexplicably placed weapons (blunted of course) could be supplied to enhanced the performance.
Seems relevant

With you on Jackie Chan. He could have called his movies "Jackie Chan I", "Jackie Chan II" etc. They're all well-nigh identical, and have hysterical outtakes at the end. |
