I don't see Shaolin Soccer on there...
You've got some alright choices on there. I haven't seen Brotherhood of the Wolf so I can't say anything about that, but the other two weren't particularly fantastic. I would say that Legend of the Drunken Master is up there along with Fist of Legend for me.
- Supercop - Jackie Chan and Michelle Yeoh! The first two "police story" films are also really good.
- Once Upon a Time in China 1 & 2- Jet Li
- The Bride with White Hair & The Bride with White Hair 2 (need to see both I think to complete the story)
- Kung-Fu Hustle - comic fun
- The Heroic Trio - three female super hero/martial artists fight a demon evil and save the city.
- The Karate Kid (okay, not really a kung-fu movie in the classic sense, but I like the movie a lot)
- The Vampire Effect- kung-fu vampire comedy from Jackie Chan studios.
- Kung Fu Fighter - if you liked Shaolin Soccer or Kung-Fu Hustle, then you need to see this too. Good movie.
- Master of the Flying Guillotine - old school kung-fu with lots of bright red blood
Also, the recent Forbidden Kingdom movie starring Jackie Chan & Jet Li turned out to be a surprisingly good film, in my book. Of course, I also enjoyed Hero, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and House of the Flying Daggers, but those are pretty well known. Volcano High was a Korean martial art movie that was dubbed by a bunch of rap/hip hop artist and turned out pretty good. And Gen-X Cops was a crime drama with superpowers that was worth seeing. Legend of the Shadowless Sword and Shinobi Heart Under Blade were also very good flicks that I remember renting from Netflix. I strongly recommend seeing those two if you haven't.
I love the Rush Hour movies, they're awesome. The list needs more Shinobi: Heart Under Blade, House of Flying Daggers, Drunken Master II and Enter the Dragon, but it's good.
Brotherhood of the Wolf is pretty awesome though I don't agree with your other choices. Personally I really like Return of the Dragon, Ong Bak, The Protector and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon.
No Kung Fu Hustle, no Shaolin Soccer. Have you not seen them or do you just ignore their brilliance?

" @Equal_Opportunity_Destroyer497 said:hey man, don't diss Ong Bak or Tony Jaa will double knee you through the floor. You're probably right about The Protector though, that movies wasn't as good. I liked the part where he climbed that resteraunt building though, how it was all filmed in one shot." Brotherhood of the Wolf is pretty awesome though I don't agree with your other choices.
