While the short trailer may leave you with more questions than answers (isn't that every teaser's purpose?), it's a well-done trailer that is hopefully a sign of where the movie is headed. That way we just pretend that "Quantum of Solace" didn't exist and move on from there.

(br /)(br /)Beating us to the punch, G4 whipped up a super-entertaining list highlighting the top fictional characters that would have no problem winning the American Ninja Warrior. It's a great list and hard to argue with the contenders they post...but I'll try anyway.(br /)(br /)For starters, Katniss Everdeen? Really? She may have all the courage and endurance, but she wouldn't hold a candle to Ezio Auditore of (i)Assassin's Creed(/i) fame. Check out the source for the full list of the crazy characters that did make the list.
(br /)(br /)You can watch all of the non-fictional people take on the obstacle course of insanity when it premieres this Sunday, May 20th, on G4TV.(br /)(br /)

His latest movie, "Chinese Zodiac" will mark his last foray into stunt-filled world of action films as the actor, now 58, focuses his career towards roles that will showcase more of his acting abilities. At one point during the interview, Chan stated: "The world is too violent now. I love fighting but I hate violence."

If you haven't seen it before, you're in for a treat!(br /)(br /)This short clip shows none other than the martial arts master himself delivering what can only be described as the worlds most incredible 6-inch punch. I'm still trying to figure out if the guy on the receiving end of said punch is brave or incredibly stupid.

It may be the Internet equivalent of the Mos Eisley Cantina, but you can always count on a good laugh or two. Like this guy.(br /)(br /)At some point, this poor guy decided that it would actually be a good idea to try to sell a (b)gun(/b) on Craigslist. So much so, that he devoted what had to be fair amount of time in concocting this amazing posting selling said weapon under the guise of an (i)Under Siege(/i) "DVD".(br /)(br /)While it's normally a good idea to call upon the martial arts expertise of Mr. Seagal to aid one in the selling of a weapon, it would seem this attempt was far from subtle.(br /)(br /)Continue reading for a screenshot of the dubious post.
