    yeah, happy belated birthday, Edgar!

    I also like Jackie Chan movies. The most recent movie of his that I saw was "Forbidden Kingdom". He costared with Jet Li, and man was that cool and funny. Loved the cinematography and fights. I so hope they make another movie together soon. A more serious one.
  • Nadine
    Oh my. Did your heart burst?

    I remember my Chan phase - it was like an addiction for a while after I saw the first one - off to the video store every weekend.

    Pure dance. What a man. He is the Gene Kelly of his art form. (I LOVE Gene Kelly, to clarify).
  • Crystal

  • Joel Vallie
    I always tell people that when Jackie dies its going to be like losing my father. Because Jackie was always there for me when I was a kid (well his movies anyway). I don't know any other movies star that I have been watching my who life like Jackie. That picture is awesome.

    EXTRA NOTE: I think Snake and Crane Arts of Shaolin is one of Jackie's underrated movies. You never hear any one talk about it. I think its amazing.
  • Wow!
    I saw Jackie's latest movie "Shinjuku Incident" for media screening last week.
    This movie is good and more serious than usual his movies.
    This movies is in assistant director of my friend.
    He said that it was very hard shooting.
  • tara
    that was so cute.
  • Freddy Loayza
    I am extremely envious of you at the moment, but now that I think about it.......you deserve it.

    Happy B-Day once again Edgar. XD

  • victor
    so it was ur bday. happy belated bday! i'm sure u were missed in england.
  • Trevor
    It looks like he wrote your name as "Zogar". Is that his cute nickname for you or something? Also, that "Action- Jackie- Power" sticker or emblem or whatever is quite bad ass.
  • That has to be the coolest birthday present ever!! I'm jealous.
  • meib
    That's truly fantastic (:
  • Red
    What a great birthday present! And is that a heart he put on there for you? Not that there's anything wrong with love between two men.....especially if it's Jackie Chan!
  • Sanc
    Wow, amazing.
  • Sarah
    You're such a dork. <3
  • Michelle
    That is amazing. Jackie Chan wished you a happy birthday. So cool. Is this the best birthday gift you've ever received?
  • Drake
    NICE!!!
  • Cody
    Nice bday present, sir! "How does one say it? Obtainer of rare antiquities." Someone finally pointed out Jackie's small role in Enter The Dragon the other day. Brilliant.
  • Moses
    You had about the best birthday ever, I'm sure! Happy birthday Edgar! Have fun shooting the film. And flushing cake down the toilet. ahah Or is it only Nick that does that? Hmmm. ahah
  • chris sanchez
    what???
  • SarahAC
    That rocks so much!
    Congrats Edgar! What a cool birthday!
  • Cordelia
    That's so great! :)
    What do you say at times like this... congratulations?
    I'm happy for you anyway :) I guess you're quite a big fan judging from your film collection a few weeks' ago
    I want a signature that complicated! How long did it take him to write?
    I feel bad about it but the only film I've seen him in is 'The Tuxedo'.. it WAS brilliant though
    His moves are flawless
    I still need rather a lot more Jackie Chan education before I can call myself a true fan though!
  • Okay...

    Here's your Chan 101.

    Drunken Master
    Project A
    Project A II
    Police Story
    Police Story II
    Police Story III
    Dragons Forever
    Wheels On Meals
    My Lucky Stars
    Armour Of God
    Drunken Master II

    Come back when you've seen those for further suggestions.
  • Cactus
    Add to that list:

    Snake In The Eagle's Shadow
    Young Master
    Heart Of The Dragon

    And you're someway to knowing JC.

    Forget anything he made after DM2 in '94, and for me cross Wheels On Meals and My Lucky Stars off the list (sorry Edgar, but those are for Samo and Yuen Biao completists, not Jackie).
  • ThunderBolt was a dandy, Jackie Chan and racing...sped up footage for maximum speed!
  • wendy
    WTH..I havn't seen 4 of those..maybe three I'll have to look them up. That was probably your best gift of the day huh ;)...did you actually meet him or did your friend get it for you? Either way WOW.
  • Smalljump
    Whoa!, coolest birthday present ever!!!

    Another great Jackie Chan movie would be "Gorgeous", there are 2 amazing fight scenes with Bradley Allan.

    Happy birthday, Edgar!!!
  • Cordelia
    Oh my goodness gracious
    I have a LOT of catching up to do!
    Thanks so much
    I'll try to make you proud!
    Oh and Happy Birthday by the way!
    Kind of forgot to say - I hope you had a great day :)
  • pieface
    the Wheels on Meals intrigues me.

    is there some kind of Jackie Chan anniversary at the moment? they showed Rush Hour last night and Who Am I? on Sat.

    couldn't track down the Coogan interview where he talked about Jackie Chan liking unusual antique things, but i guess you could just text Coogy and ask him. am 99% sure that I'm right.
  • A.T
    can't wait for the pilgrim.
    I've only seen like 3 of them i'm going to check that lot out!!

    Thank you for that list and so much!!!
  • Ian Shirley
    Well I feel some what accomplished.
    I have seen all of those, plus The Tuxedo.
    :D
  • faye
    doesnt he also have a movie called
    "Who Am I" or somethinglike that...
    and...
    "The Myth" :D
    those are probably not famous. haha
  • pieface
    that's amazing!

    if you want to reciprocate a pressie, i've read he likes antique lace and walking canes (and prob other antique things as well...but i'd check that fact maybe), read that when he was doing Around the World in 80 days.

    oh and watched 'Nuts in May' tonight (BBC4) - Richenda Carey was in that as well!
  • have a good one, Edgar
  • Reid
    YAY JACKIE CHAN!

    Happy belated birthday Edgar
  • Yister159
    If those things below the heart(?) are what I think they are then, he put them a little too far up.
