Jackie chan just does comic flics because it makes more money as its what people whant and expect from him. His old films (Drunken Master) was just quality.
However, Yes. Bruce Lee is THE legend! RIP.
Also, look out for a new guy, i cant remember his name but he was the lead character in the newish film Ong-Bak. That film was shot with no wires, trick photography or stunt doubles. So this guy was literally running across peoples shoulders.
that dude is dead...

Bruce lee is the man, chuck norris looks gay (especially on that cover!) I have a hard time taking Jackie seriously cuz he is soo funny but I give him props too but he seems more like the stunt guy or the improvise yourself out of a bad situation guy rather than the im gonna kill you kind of guy. Jet Li is ok I guess, that last movie he made though was kinda stupid. Jet Li vs. Jackie Chan would be interesting though.

Bruce Lee is my lawyer. He's been counsel to my family for twenty years now. I don't think he qualifies as a badass but he is a great lawyer.... especially for defence work... which is what I need more often then not.
I had no idea he did the karate thing.... surprising given then he's old and not in the best of shape.

Jet Li has never been in a fight in his life. He admits this on his own website. The guy is a wushu champion. Thats like pretend fighting with swords and ribbons and shit. Thats not to say he isnt a great martial artist, he's just not an actual fighter. He is however reknown for his lifgtning speed.
Jackie Chan is trained in the Hung Ga (shaolin 5 animal system) aswell as Choi Lee Fut and Wing Chun styles of kung fu. Fuck, the guy can crack out pretty much any system of kung fu, including the wierd whacky shit that is his trademark. Also, he's done the Iron Palm system a few times over and is as hard as fucking nails. Its a method whereby you coat yourself in herbs and beat the shit out of yourself with wooden sticks for about 10 years. That how he takes all those falls, the guy is fucking hard.
They both however trained at the fabled Peking Opera school and are very skilled acrobats along with the likes of Sammo Hung.
Bruce Lee was also the real deal and was student to the legendary Yip Man which Bruce described himself as the greatest fighter on the planet. As for the 1 inch punch, its not just a Bruce Lee thing. Most kung fu students of a few years can do it.
