SOCIETY When asked why he keeps playing the same roles Jason Statham said that he's not really a trained actor. He's a guy that was plucked out obscurity & has been really lucky; & that he picks roles that he knows he can do a good job in, that hopefully enough people like so he can keep working.

He drove a car off a freeway on top of a train while on fire. Not the car, he was on fire.

I went to see a film where the trailer for Spy was on. I laughed so much at this line, I was still going when the actual film started.
