What's the best system to run a "Big Trouble in Little China" game in?

FENG SHUIIIIIIIII, MOTHERFUCKER!!!
Seriously, guns + chinese magic + demons + an actual underworld.
Upcoming Shadow of the Century game, fate core based, explicitly designed to replicate stuff like this, escape from LA, any big 80s action flicks. There are char sheets out there that are designed to be folded up and put into a cassette tape box like a song list, even.
I would personally use GURPS, but I'm a giant GURPSfag and I already know how I would build and run it.
Most people would probably have the best results doing this in Savage Worlds or something.
Feng Shui was explicitly made for this kind of game. I'd also consider Fate; the knife trick Burton pulls off at the end is like the definition of a stunt + a Fate point.

Feng Shui or GURPS would be pretty good for it.
Shadowrun'd also work fairly well.

Feng Shui is absolute dogshit and has never been good.

Maid - the player's master is the white guy who isn't the hero and everyone plays the far more badass and important chinese sidekicks.

>Implying Jack isn't That Guy
Come on man
>Gets told the campaign will focus on mystic martial arts
>Makes a white trucker with no martial arts awareness or anything similar
>spends the entire campaign ignoring the actual problems and just trying to get his truck back
>during the final fight, he fires a few shots into the air, and the GM is so tired of his shit he has rocks fall on his head and knock him out for a few rounds, then just a bit later, has him get trapped under some dude for another few rounds
>kills the final boss purely by rolling a pair of 20s in a row and probably won't stop talking about it on /tg/

Jack is actually funny though, which That Guy never is

Why not Shadowrun?
Fiasco probably.
