The Expendables-Stallone,Li,Statham & Lundgren!

Yi-Long · Post by **Yi-Long** » 15 Dec 2008, 14:24

I think Jet is a very good actor, and I dont 'hate' Stallone' or anything, but Dolf has never impressed me and Statham is beyond horrible.

Yeah, this COULD turn out decent, but chances are pretty big that it will be another wasted opportunity for Li. So I'd rather see Li staying as far away from Statham as possible, and start making some movies with some big directors, or use his talent in Asia.

TBH, I'd rather see Jet Li make no movie at all, instead of making another piece of shit movie like The One or that DMX-crap.

Agreed except I think he should stick to Asia and give up on Hollywood.

I definitely agree to. They such an utter waste of everyone's time.

I dont think Jet should 'give up on Hollywood'; he should just say NO to crappy shoddy projects and ONLY say yes to movies that have a good/great script and a very decent director/cast attached.
The problem Jet Li has, that no matter how well he acts, in Hollywood people still see him as that chinese kung-fu guy who ISNT Jackie. Jet can act pretty well, so I dont see why he couldnt be in a movie like The Bourne Identity, or a new Bond flick, not just as a 'baddie', but as an asian alternative to Bond or Bourne (a secret agent but on the other side).

In theory I agree but all the years he's been trying he hasn't made ONE decent Hollywood film. They've all been awful, unless I'm mistaken?

Something he's done nothing to address.

Belushi was good in The Principal.

To be honest, he does give Tom And Jerry: The Movie EVERYTHING it deserves! And he does crack me up!

Belushi: it was quite odd seeing him in Thief where he was rather podgy; by the time of The Principal, he was looking a lot like Bill Murray!

Really? Arnie? I thought he wouldn't appear in movies any more, maybe he hasnt been re-elected.

He was re-elected in 2006,he's in till at least 2010 when he may have to step down (if the 8 year rule applies to Governors,i don't know)

Thanks

I read the link and it sounded like Arnie is playing himself (as Governor) in the movie, if he IS in it
