Sorry, didn't mean to react like that just took me by surprise that's all I forget that some people may not have the same knowledge as others.

My personal favourite three are most probably (and this could change on a daily basis):

Drunken Master 2 (AKA Legend of the Drunken Master in US)
Miracles
Police Story 3: Supercop

but seriously there are really too many greats to narrow it down to a genuine top three, any of the ones (as Stephen just said) with the Trio are fantastic.

Search on youtube for 'Jackie Chans top 10 fight scenes' and see if any tickle your fancy

For me, Drunken Master 2, Armour of God and Police Story are the best ones. but Snake In The Eagles Shadow and Meals on Wheels are also a must

I really need to get myself a multiregion player, it's the only way I'll be able to get the best versions of all his films. There's so many BDs that are Region A so I just can't buy them. Makes me sad....very sad

Excellent video with some awesome fight scenes. To further prove what a negative impact this place has on my wallet, I've ordered Police Story (Hong Kong Legends) and Drunken Master (both new or like new), which came to just over £10 with postage from Amazon Marketplace. I might have to check out Drunken Master 2 as well judging from the fight scene in that video!

Good choices, although once you watch Police Story you're gonna have to get Police Story 2 and check out my all time favourite Childrens Playground fight scene. Jaw dropping stuff.
As for Drunken Master 2 unfortunately there's not an Uncut anamorphic DVD available anywhere in the world. You can only really get the fantastic looking DVD or BD from the US but it's the International cut missing the offensive scene at the end and it has a new dub.
