    Even with all the terrible things that have come out about abuse of power in the entertainment industry, Brett Ratner stands alone as a uniquely persistent and evil person whose behavior was known and tolerated for years.

    Fuck him. I hope this movie never gets made.

    Rush Hour is a Warner Bros franchise and this deal was done just because Trump asked Ellison for it lol. This is crazy to me.

      You know, this is one of the outcomes I wasn't expecting from this deranged presidency but also one that I'm entirely not mad about.

    Jackie can't do his thing anymore anyway. Honestly I'd argue that Rush Hour was the beginning of the end for him — Who Am I was the last genuinely good Jackie movie

      It's not really a "Jackie Chan movie" per say, but The Foreigner is actually a really solid film, and Jackie plays his part really well. It's more a traditional modern action film rather than a martial arts-focused one but it's worth a watch I think. Even still, that film's eight years old now, and he was already fairly slow at that point. He's 71 now, I can't see him doing another Rush Hour.

        The Foreigner is basically Taken with Jackie Chan which is a good formula. While he won't or can't do big stunts he can still do fight choreography and small stunts really well. If Rush Hour focuses on that, then it can do well
