What's your favorite 70s Era Jackie Chan film?

[SuperTiaanBro]

I say this all the time but Spiritual Kung Fu. Drunken Master is also a contender for my favorite though.

[DrNgor]

Drunken Master and Snake and Crane Arts of Shaolin.

I haven't seen Snake and Crane Arts of Shaolin yet, sounds good!

[Omni Dragon]

Probably Snake in the Eagle's Shadow.

[Kwai]

The movies which i consider a trilogy because of their similar construction (snake, drunken, hyena) are probably his best old school movies. Together with young master and dragon lord. I also enjoy half a loaf of kung fu, to kill with intrigue and dragon fist. His worst oldschool movie is killer meteors and spiritual kung fu is pretty bad in some parts.

[Cognoscente]

The Young Master (since all of it was filmed in 1979 despite being released in 1980).

[Iron Head Rat]

Snake In The Eagles  Shadow

Love Master Kam in Young Master thou

Agree with the first 3 ie

Snake In The Eagles Shadow

Drunken Master

Fearless Hyena (i think this is a Little under rated)

but would add Shaolin Chamber Of Death as one of faves

i also rate Snake & Crane and Dragon Fist but not as much  as the 4 above

Spiritual Kung wasn't too bad but not as good as the above.

Good list, but I have to agree to disagree with Spiritual Kung Fu. Personally I love it, and not in the way I like bad movies. I think it's good, and hilarious. It's different with movies like Troll 2 though. I like that movie BECAUSE it's bad.

As a movie in general, Eagle Shadow Fist is my favorite. For Jackie himself, I would have to choose No End of Surprises in spite of his limited role.

You never see Jackie in a role like this ever again imo.

[SunChien]

Snake in the Eagle's Shadow, rented it a lot back in the day.

It was the first movie I saw Hwang Jang Lee in as a bad guy and he was very imposing.

[WangYu]

i’m the odd one I prefer new fist of fury and killer meteors. I rather keep comedy at a minimum. Impressive choreography nonetheless in all his movies.

[DarthKato]

Defiantly Snake In The Eagle's Shadow, but Drunken Master and Dragon Fist are also really good.

[vbs85]

Dragon Fist is the best in terms of JCs martial arts display on his 70s movies.

[Jesse Smooth]

SNAKE & CRANE/DRAGON FIST. The first movies I ever bought with my allowance…2 pack from Suncoast (remember them?). Plus DF has a helluva finale.

[Killer Meteor]

SHAOLIN WOODEN MEN - good story, decent kung fu, Doris Lung being a cutie!

[WangYu]

Killer meteors! Because , just look at my name…

[sym8]

Dragon fist and Snake in the eagles shadow

[TibetanWhiteCrane]

DM and SITES for nostalgia reasons, but objectively speaking it's Dragon Fist.

I had that same 2-pack! I'd already rented Snake and Crane and loved it, so getting it along with Dragon Fist was a treat.

This one, right?
