      From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu              Jackie Chan:        - You can't eat a fudgsicle in a white suit.                - He's got a hit show in China, The Next Great Action Star. He needs       personality, be like him. Know how to dance, to sing. People were more       impressed with his singing than his stunts. He tries singing War (huh) What       Is It Good For? Somersaults,        gymnastics, not just fighting. Fighting with *rhythm*. Why is the band       playing music?                - He realized he needs to write the rhythm to get his fights scene       interesting: bing bong bing bing bong. He has a sound for broken glasses. He       demonstrates, getting really close, so Conan's whole life flashes before his       eyes, and it's boring. They        give a demonstration with the band playing music.                - He doesn't dance naturally, as everyone will stare at him. So he rocks       back and forth, like high schoolers do, and waves.                - He encourages actors to do their own stunts. Chris Tucker was lazy, hiding       in the trailer. Someday his grandchildren will ask ``Who's that?'' and he has       to trust Chan that he'll make him an action star.                - They actually did fight on the real Eiffel Tower. He got to use it as his       personal night light to tease Chris Tucker. How many people get the chance to       hang outside the actual Eiffel Tower?                - He accidentally dropped ... I think his female co-star, but it was an       accident, and to save her he had to grab her by the breasts.                     Simon Pegg:        - He felt the zombie genre was destroyed by Michael Jackson. Zombies       shouldn't dance.                - Do his United Kingdom fans accuse him of Going Hollywood? Yes: He wasn't       going to do Mission Impossible 3, he told an interview. Then Abrams called       him to ask if he would. But if naming something ridiculous and gets the job       ... why not try it?                - He's a Star Wars fan. He owns six light sabres. They're such cool toys.        His really work, except for not killing a man. His wife thinks he's a geek,       so he has to include his wife to play. They go into the bedroom with them,       turn out the lights, he        strips to his underwear, and stands with the light sabre on, lit by the       glittering majesty of his wand. Turn it off, disappear, sneak ... not       necessarily a prelude to sex, as she's laughing for thirty minutes after he       stops ...                - He needs an airplane-friendly replacement for swear words, annoying, since       the people offended know the words used to be there. So they try making the       most ridiculous replacements.                     Just Jack:        - From 'Overtones': Starz in their Eyes.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
