Stathamology Prologue: The Jason Statham Marathon!
Stathamology April 20th. 2008, 1:58pm
If you have been watching movies over the past 10 years you are probably familiar with the foremost action-comedy star in the world. Jason Statham. He works his magic by performing ridiculous stunts in completely unlikely situations against completely unlikely odds. Much to the delight of the viewer who is expecting such (however often not so much to the delight of the dumbass movie dick who wouldn’t know good action if it smacked him in the face with a fire hose)
He captured our hearts in The Transporter, which is widely regarded as the greatest action movie of all time. He has taught us so many lessons about fighting in grease, using fire hoses as weapons, taking our shirt off on a zodiac, driving up escalators, and public erections.
It is only fitting that I donate my time to him as he has donated so much to me, the fan of over the wall action-hilariousness. Considering I am on the appropriate side of the wall, this is appreciated!
So for the next few weeks (months, not sure) I will be posting The STATHAMOLOGY Mini-series. I will watch every movie that Jason Statham has appeared in, in chronological order. I will rate that movie on several Stathamatistics. From small roles to the most important roles of our generation, this will become the ultimate Stathamatic depository of Stathamagical goodness.
Really though, brace yourselves…

“The Transporter, which is widely regarded as the greatest action movie of all time”
Obviously you’ve never seen shoot-em-up, idiot.

Shoot Em Up is a good movie but The Transporter is way better.

That guy at the top of the page is a jackass.
He actually placed shoot em up as the best action movie? It sucked, incredibly obviously absolutely crap.
I DO disagree with you though, suprisingly I thought the sequel was probably better, mainly because of Lola.

LOVE THIS SITE! After spending last night with a mini-Statham marathon I searched the web and not only found this site, but also the new trailer for Death Race (out in August) and the teaser trailer for Transporter 3!!!!! It’s very short, but I can’t wait till April to see it… here is the link for all to see… http://www.firstshowing.net/2008/06/10/must-watch-badass-transporter-3-teaser-trailer/
Enjoy

I LOVE your Stathamology page!! I have had a couple of ‘Statham-movie-marathons,’ and this is brilliant! Your reviews are hilarious and I appreciate the fact that you are on “Team Statham.” I can’t stand it when people donante a ton of time to bashing someone! Instead, you took the time to show respect and appreciation towards the handsome and very talented action star
KUDOS to you, my friend!
PS- ‘Shoot Em Up’ wasn’t even in the same ballpark! I agree with Micole: why even get on a page dedicated to Statham if you aren’t here to support him?
July 6th, 2008 at 12:46 am
Thank you very much for the support Stacia! Who wastes time getting on an actor they don’t likes fanpage! It’s unbelievably pointless!

This may be off topic…but;
did anyone else think Jason should’ve been cast as Agent 47 from Hitman?!
When I first heard they were making a Hitman movie I immediately thought Jason Statham!!

Love him and love this site, very fun. Who can tell me the proper pronunciation of Jason’s last name? Is it a) stat-ham or b) stath-am. Long a or soft? Meaning Stat vs. State a sound?
August 31st, 2008 at 10:18 am
To Lisa - Although I don’t know Jason, my family pronounces the our name ‘State - em’ with the emphasis on the first syllable. I know other relatives who pronounce it Stath (with a long a) - am. Either way it’s always a long ‘a’.

Where’s Crank? That film is pure Statham-porn. Get it together!
September 18th, 2008 at 4:33 am
this is brilliant site.. so fun.. i like jason statham too… but i have to be honest.. the grease fight in transporter was too much for me to absorb
i liked him more as handsome rob in italian job

STATHAM IS THE SEXIEST & MANLIEST ACTOR RIGHT NOW.I LOVE HIM HE IS THE BEST.
October 25th, 2008 at 4:32 am
I HAVE SEEN MOST ALL OF HIS MOVIES I LOOK FORWARD FOR DEATH RACE
November 11th, 2008 at 2:24 am
I have actually never hear of Jason Statham, until now. My bf told me about this page and so I am going to see the new transporter!
December 6th, 2008 at 1:02 am
Are you gonna make any more, Including Crank and Chaos and War and Death Race and all?
January 8th, 2009 at 4:47 pm
THE REST ARE COMING. Sometimes the greatest collection of written work of modern history takes a bit of time to complete. Or maybe I am just dreading the thought of watching London again. Either or. More soon.
February 21st, 2009 at 12:32 am
Can’t blame you for avoiding watching London again. So, how about a review of our boy in the Audi Superbowl commercial? A nice bite-sized bit of Statham to keep us from going into withdrawl while waiting for Crank 2.

Dude! Continue in your quest to review all of the movies Jason is in. You’re a great writer and there are a great many more movies he is in (like the Pink Panther! Hahaha… Just kidding!) But seriously, you need to write some more reviews! I love’em! Later!
