^That's probably what you are speaking of.
Jet Li's big film at the moment is Fearless, Jackie Chan's is The Myth(nothing special imo) which came out some time ago and going to be working on Project BB, and the Rush Hour 3. As for Tony Ja, we still need to get Tom Yum Goong in most places around the world, The Body Guard 2 and Sword.
So quite some things to look forwards to.

get me John Woo as a director and we're in for blockbuster action flick.
I never cared for John Woo. His action flicks just seem to be pure eye candy, and lack in good story and dialogue. Usually the only thing that brings out his movies are one good actor. I.e. John Travolta/Broken Arrow, Nick Cage/WindTalkers, Tom Cruise/M:I:2.
I'm Anxious to see what he does with 'Metroid' and 'He-man'.
Afterall, He is working on 6 2006 projects.
But on the positive side John Woo delivers entertaining and at times comedic factors to his films. Rather unfortunate that he has overdone it especially since he started doing films for big studios. The way I see is if an action film keeps you interested it works! No need for good story or even great dialogue. As long as the action flick keeps you wanting more then is all good.

Good Point. But I didn't find 'Broken Arrow' anything like you described. Did you?

Have you seen any of his Non American films?
