Drunken Master vs The Legend of Drunken Master

Jackie Chan is here to drink wine and kick ass... and he’s all out of wine. Actually, he never runs out of wine! For this Versus episode, we looked at two of his most popular films--The Drunken Master and The Legend of Drunken Master. As for which is the best—well, for some it would be a coin toss. Drunken Master has some of that old school charm, but some would argue that The Legend of Drunken Master is a "Modern Kung Fu" classic. Who is a better director--Yuen Woo Ping or Jackie Chan? Which has the best drunken martial arts? And which will move on in the Martial Arts Tournament? There can be only one! Let’s talk about movies!
