Jason Statham (Great article about the actor & Transporter 3 too!)

I know Leterrier did not want to make Transporter 2 and wasn't given enough money so he probably would never be conned into Transporter 3. I'll still go watch it though but it better be more hand to hand combat and less ******ed stunts.

Nice find. Statham does have that likeability that other people lack. Thats why he's kept going, people don't seem to be getting bored yet.

Jason statham,hmmm seems to be taking any gig. Whats that new movie hes in with Burt Reynolds,lol it dont look to good. Though I will agree, he's got a likable personality. For me I just want to see him in some good old fashion martial arts movie. His movies have some of that,but they tend to lack in the wow factor.
So, far his best movie has been Crank,imo...Then TP1,TP2,War..not sure what else hes been in.

Why did he not want to do transporter 2?

 

[Advanced Dark]

^ Ask him. He did an interview (it'd take too long to find it) that he was pressured into it and didn't want to do. So then he agreed and they didn't give him enough money.

Amen.
With that said, I think that the Transporter films are highly entertaining action films. I'm all in for a third, but hoping for it to be exactly what Advanced Dark said above.

Yeah the second film pretty much lost most of which made the first film so great. Funny that Crank brough a little of that back. Crank should have been Transporter 3 just add more intense fighting.

Crash? Transporter 3 should be an Oscar-winning drama about racism?

 

[Advanced Dark]

Wasn't the title Crash? Oh no it was Crank. LOL

you guys are really simple if you think his big american 'blockbusters' are his best movies. lock stock and 2 smoking barrels and snatch. he doesn't need to kick ass to.... kick ass, ya know?

 

[Hush]

Yeah I would say Snatch is one of his best movies, that and Italian job he plays his character perfectly.

 

[Rac]

Transporter 3? Yes, please. I actually liked the second one better... Funny to hear that Louis was "forced" to do it.

Anyway, I think London is Statham's best. Crank comes in second and then the Transporters.
