Jackie Chan’s life has been so intensely public since the 1960s that he has not only left the audience with many films and songs, but also knows how to trigger the creativity of his fans with them. This anecdote is part of the fictional collection of chapters in my “Jackie Chan Extended Universe”.
Asian Hawk-eye: Jackie Chan cut these film errors out of ARMOUR OF GOD
Sometimes you spot things in films and series that don’t belong there. Whether it’s the Starbucks cup in GAME OF THRONES, a forgotten cardboard display in THREE MEN AND A BABY, or microphones that accidentally slipped into the frame in numerous films.
