Don't get excited Union Lackey, it's only a movie. (I know you have trouble understanding that. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone.)

Bruce Lee was an actor who knew Kung Fu (His own style, mind you...nothing wrong with that.) Chuck Norris was a World Champion Martial Artist who was offered acting roles.

And Chuck would be the 1st to admit Bruce was one of if not THE greatest martial artist ever and likely would've mopped the floor with him in a real fight. Maybe that's hard for YOU to understand.

You all are bagging on some old dude way past his prime, he looks to me like he has had a few stokes and is fighting like he always had till the end.

Norris was defeated in his first two tournaments, dropping decisions to Joe Lewis and Allen Steen and three matches at the International Karate Championships to Tony Tulleners. By 1967 Norris had improved enough that he scored victories over the likes of Lewis, Skipper Mullins, Arnold Urquidez, Victor Moore, Ron Marchini, and Steve Sanders. In early 1968, Norris suffered the tenth and last loss of his career, losing an upset decision to Louis Delgado. On November 24, 1968, he avenged his defeat to Delgado and by doing so won the Professional Middleweight Karate champion title, which he held for six consecutive years. In 1969, he won Karate's triple crown for the most tournament wins of the year, and the Fighter of the Year award by Black Belt Magazine.

Norris made history in 1990 when he was the first Westerner in the documented history of Tae Kwon Do to be given the rank of 8th Degree Black Belt Grand Master. On July 1, 2000, Norris was presented the Golden Lifetime Achievement Award by the World Karate Union Hall of Fame. In 1999, Norris was inducted into the Martial Arts History Museum's Hall of Fame

You are a pretty silly character to say the words of a old guy removes a lifetime of his achievements.

Next thing you will tell me is that, there is a history of Obama prior to his 18 months as a congressman and his service to this country is of some value.

You're messed up dood.

P.S. These non- Chuck doods speaking for Chuck in that audio, while he wasn't there is bullshit ....I heard some wino on the street say that Chuck Norris said, he said Lee would win the fight, so Lee wouldn't fight him because Norris didn't want to ruin Lees pretty little face and embarrass him.

I'm also wondering what most of you Dolts will look like when you're 70+ years of age. I'm guessing that like Mr. Eastwood, Chuck is tired of the community organizer. Chuck and Clint made their money through hard work and fortitude. Although up in age, both still work and have paid their fair share of taxes throughout their lives. Now the Community Organizer is constantly trying to pilfer their earnings through higher taxes, and dump it off to a ever growing portion of society who enjoy living off the government dole. T

My dad took a job in Hong Kong and we were over there for three years. In that three years we became very close with several Chinese families who are still dear friends. One family immigrated to the US and became US citizens. I remember going with my mom to the US Embassy playing the paper game and her getting one of our US senators involved to help out. One guy at the embassy was being an asshole so my mom got one of our senators involved. It so happens he was good friends with the secretary of state and the fist came down hard on the asshole in Hong Kong. It was my first lesson on being politically connected it was a great assets and who you know is what gets things done. My mom was always good at getting things done and getting whoever was needed to make the point stick. She was amazing that way.

Anyways, this one particular chinese gentleman always took me to see the kung fu movies. It was running through Hong Kong streets at dinner time with all the gut wagons out and what seemed like millions of people on the streets getting their food. What was on the wagons looked like something That Zimmerman dude on the food channel eats on his show. I loved the movies. You ate shrimp chips instead of popcorn and there were always sub-tittles in at least three languages on the screen. Usually English, Tai, and kanji so people who spoke mandarin could understand what was going on because the language spoken was cantonese.

I stopped by to visit this gentleman and his wife when I was passing through the town they lived in. Nothing has changed. He was sitting in a big easy boy chair watching kung fu movies.

That has been the crime of many administrations Reagan included. Obama has ran up by far the most debt. Most that debt is actually owned to the Federal Reserve Bank. Rumor is foreign countries have stopped loaning to us. Debt is a form of slavery and so if the Federal Reserve Board can keep their charade going they basically own the country because of the debt. What a scam but more and more of the average citizens are wising up to it. Even Romney said we need to audit it but then will he really if he gets into office? At least they talk about it now.

This might be a bit off topic.
Through my life, I didn't know much about chinese people and their culture at all. So when I started working in a shop of a brand that chinese people LOVE, it came as a bit of shock. They are SO different from us. I mean their culture and behaivor. And all of my colleagues have the same story.
Why are they like that?? Do you know, since your dad was there and you know some of them.

I'm not sure Chuck Norris really falls under the remit of 'actor', but I think that professional actors work pretty damn hard. Calling what the very best actors do 'dress up' is a little disengenuous, Sesh - great theatre, cinema a TV drama is an artform, no? And plenty of actors really put themselves through it to nail the role.

I guess it's the same with bands. On the surface it looks easy: write 10 songs every two years and then go on tour, where you work for 90 minutes a day. But we all know that a 2 year tour is incredibly hard work.

(None of this qualifies these people to make political statements, however, which is one of the oddest things in our current culture).

A good actor spends hours upon hours in prep time. Establishing the objective for the character and applying an objective and action verb to each and every line. As well as analyzing the script for sub-text and nuance in order to build a believable character.

The days are long, often 14 hour days (or nights), and you're often working in horrid conditions. It looks a hell of a lot easier than it actually is. It's much more than playing dress up and memorizing lines. There's about 6 months prep work done by GOOD actors, which is unpaid. (And one of the reasons pay is so high). Of course, people like Norris aren't paid the big bucks because of their acting skill. They're paid big bucks because they're a huge box office draw, and the production company stands to make a LOT of $ because of that.

It's also very energy draining, especially when doing a highly emotional scene. A good actor actually FEELS the emotion they are portraying, and it can leave you completely emotionally drained.

And I seriously doubt anyone gives a crap about Norris' religion, but when you make Repuke dog-whistle PSA pandering to zealotards about "1,000 years of darkness" (which you'd think since they WANT the rapture to take place, if the POTUS was the antichrist they'd be ALL FOR HIM, let's get the end-times-a-rollin'!!), that's when you're no longer deserving of respect.

(None of this qualifies these people to make political statements, however, which is one of the oddest things in our current culture).

I agree, guys like Chuck really need to have a qualified script writer tell them what to say. :)

I would add this caveat not only to actors, but to morons like the owner of the shit-pizza chain Papa Johns and that old doucher curmudgeon couple that made their fortune in the corrupt brothels of gambling in Las Vegas that donated shitloads of cash to Newt Gingrich of all people. This is exactly why we need serious campaign finance reform in this country along with vastly shorter election cycles...

It seems to part of our celebrity culture.

TV panel shows where people with no qualifications to do so talk about current events make me sick....

That's the real problem. Campaigns are kept very expensive intentionally. It's to the price the little guy out of the democratic process. Put a low ceiling on what can be spent on a campaign and we would have a lot more real choices instead of just two that have any chance of winning and who basically are bought and owned by the same banks and multinational corporations.

Not only that, but his understanding of Scripture is totally backwards...

The reign of the Anti-Me will only be SEVEN years of darkness, followed by My 1000 year reign on Earth.

This might be a bit off topic.
Through my life, I didn't know much about chinese people and their culture at all. So when I started working in a shop of a brand that chinese people LOVE, it came as a bit of shock. They are SO different from us. I mean their culture and behaivor. And all of my colleagues have the same story.
Why are they like that?? Do you know, since your dad was there and you know some of them.

Not only know some of them. Considered family. My oldest daughter was with me when I paid some Chinese friends a visit. They told her all sorts of stories about me because they lived in Hong Kong when we did. I just joked and told her she didn't know she had a Chinese aunt and uncle. LOL! Yeah, you have to take everything you grew up with in the west and throw it out the window to understand Chinese culture and then of course southern Chinese culture is different than northern Chinese culture. The most important thing to know is never make them lose face. Never insult them or make them look foolish in public. If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. They also love red. It's the good luck color. They have some wild looking houses. Bright red walls are common.

There are also important protocols to follow. You visit the older relatives first. If you visit cousin number five before cousin number 3 and he finds out about it, it's not good. I did this in San Fransisco but then cousin number three had to outdo cousin number five and we ended up having this huge ten course meal in some neighborhood Chinese restaurant that put to shame anything in Chinatown. Then of course you know you are in the club when you eat what they eat and actually enjoy it and you really can use chopsticks. Then there are the giggles and comments, you wouldn't have this in a so called American Chinese restaurant. If you say that in Cantonese then you are dyed in the wool in the club.

I've been around it my whole life so when I'm around Chinese it's like I throw a switch in my head and I go into Chinese mode. Western culture and Chinese culture are so different you have to do the because they just don't mix well.

What's with this thousand years shit? Everyone from Hitler to Jesus is into the 1000 year rein. Why not one million years? Think big! Everyone just wants 1000 years.

Hitler stole the idea from Me.

Of course his whole attempt to be Me kinda fell apart when he started killing My people. :(

And My 1000 year reign is on this earth. But Dad and I will be in charge permanently up here in Heaven.

According to the bible myth you did fuck all up until 30(carpentry and cruising?) and then got fed up after a few years so I think you're too much of a lightweight do anything for 1000 years.

Of course we know now 1000 years is a tiny blink of an eye in terms of the universe but to be fair these stories were invented by iron age goat herders....
