    That photo brought back memories. I remember when I first joined KFM 2 and a half years ago, I had no idea who the Gracies were, and someone posted that he would be Kato and someone said "Yeah, he's gonna have a hard time defeating his opponents when he realizes that they won't tap"

    Because people know Will Smith and Jim West. People don't know Rickson Gracie, or hell, a Gracie for that matter. Hell, most people don't even know what UFC, NHB, Pride, K-1 or whatever is. I talk to people and ask them stuff and they look at me like I am on crack when I mention Gracie in a sarcastic comment

    Me: "Royce would choke him out."
    Them: "What? Who?"

    They'd want an actor who people can at least look at and say "Hey that's the dude from The Matrix Reloaded...Seraph, that's the dude from Blade II", etc.

    Just watch out mixing your online stuff with the real world, there have been a few people known to get good beatings when they did that.

    well, badger, it is you doing the talking ...

    instead of rickson, let's go with sakuraba, if only for the silly stunt factor.

    I want you guys to think about the "action sequences" Kevin Smith has directed in the past, and then lower your expectations accordingly.

    Lower...

    Lower...

    Lower...

    Lower...

    Keep going...

    well, the scene in dogma in which jay was shooting ben affleckwas pretty fantastic.



    but that's only because ben affleck was getting shot.

    wacky

    I loved dogma.

    There was a rumor that Jackie was being considered Kato, but that was before I heard anything about Smith taking on the project. There was a very old rumor about Jet doing Kato too, but after Black Mask and his other western projects, that would be really surprising.

    I would enjoy hearing more about this if anyone finds out more...

    Just a little bit lower than that...

    Almost 1/3 of the way there now...

    And lower...

    I just thought of something - Kwoon is hitting DVD now. Sounds like the perfect bunch of guys for this project to me.
