If yesterday's trailer for Jackie Chan's family action comedy THE SPY NEXT DOOR didn't excite (or depress) you enough, here's the official poster for the flick.

And if you're wondering how this one differs from THE PACIFIER, it's simple: this one has a housepig instead of a houseduck. And Billy Ray Cyrus. And more people getting whacked with frying pans. Plus Vin Diesel isn't Chinese. I don't think...

Extra Tidbit: I'd say it would be great if Jackie hooked back up with Yuen Woo Ping, but even adding Jet Li just gives you THE FORBIDDEN KINGDOM.

You're dead wrong DarjJade!!
Of the three people you mentioned, Jet Li has the least amount of talent. I like Jet Li, but next to Donnie and Jackie, Jet falls way short.

First off, Jackie Chan has directed a large amount of his own films, he's choreographed his own fight scenes and action sequences, he's a fantastic stunt man, and he has great comedic timing. Jet has only directed one film back in 1986, Bor...

Jet has only directed one film back in 1986, Born to Defend, it sucked. He doesn't choreograph his own fight scenes. The only thing he has up on Jackie right now is speed, and his choice in films.

Now Donnie Yen is the man. This guy could be kicking major ass in Hollywood if he wanted to. He speaks perfect English! His fight scenes are amazing. See his latest film called Ip Man, if u haven't already.

I honestly don't care as I think Jet Li is way more talented and could kick Jackie Chan's ass easily! (I also love me some Donnie Yen!)

Of course Jackie's age and the abuse his body has taken over the years would be a good excuse for doing films like this! But I believe he is simply after the paycheck. Jackie is a Hollywood kind of guy to begin with. He could find better films to do, but the studios are willing to pay beaucoup bucks for a star like him in a family movie like this.

So Sad
Jackie Chan has so much damn talent. And he's wasting it on these horrible Hollywood films. What the hell is wrong with him!? I am such a huge fan of his, and it makes me ill, to see him in stuff like this. He should go back to directing, since he's too old now to do the great action stuff he did in the past. Damn it!!!

A question for my fellow posters
Anyone else think Chan is slowly moving into kid-friendly, less grueling action films, because of the toll the action has taken on his body after all these DECADES?
