What are your thoughts on Bill and Ted? They handled time travel better than almost any other show or movie, and really took advantage of the fun shenanigans to be had - the self meeting, for instance, or remembering the trash can - but I never quite got why they were restricted by the San Dimas clock aways ticking. I mean, they could always have just gone back in time to when they had to give the report, couldn't they?
As to the topic, Jackie Chan. I'm counting Jackie Chan as a trope here, because "Jackie Chan movie" is basically its own genre, and is one of the greatest genres ever.
