Yes, I did. Sometimes, you just do things only to survive, to pay the bills. Even Shakespeare did it. Have you read “Richard III”? The hero is a guy who has a soul as ugly as his physical appearance. Judging someone by the appearances… It’s just the complete opposite of his works! They probably hold a gun to his head to make him write that stuff.”<br /> <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Didn’t say it</span><br /><br />“France has to wake up!

That’s good! So, we know that when I cross the living-room and walk from the fireplace to the window, it takes 10 seconds, but for a bird, it takes one second and for the oxygen 0 second!”<br /> <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Did say it</span>aurelienhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16041350633021646067noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815747406969269483.post-91712029665195429922009-03-22T14:54:00.000-07:002009-03-22T15:12:00.442-07:00My last post<div align="justify">Watching this <a href="http://www.metacafe.com/watch/1850831/director_mabrouk_el_mechri_jcvd/">interview</a>, I realized that I have common point with the film director of JCVD Mabrouk El Mechri when he says he grew up with Jean-Claude’s films. I have to confess that I did too and, like Mabrouk, I even had a poster of his first and maybe most famous film “Bloodsport” on the wall of my room when I was a little boy. I don’t watch Karate films anymore but at that time, he was important and symbolized a lot of things for me, as for a lot of people I suppose. </div><div align="justify"><br /></div><p align="justify"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5316134773611547458" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 210px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGo8oG5OdZvJSHEVaRv3pFl_AcTWnKdIOe0ZfPCnOTBJTClAQQIaB-O6cwFzh7odhd1XXoHB7QKrsOe4jcvMri7fdTtWrBPCeUYk7mxVbazSti0rOrcWYL1EQMPwDrwXZU31XakeQjqPo/s320/mabrouketJC.jpg" border="0" /><br />I want to thank Mabrouk for making JCVD, because in our societies “burn your idol” seems to be the motto of a lot of people. Of course, to have idols is very infantile, but if you are a child, what’s the problem? It is not incoherent. I also think it’s important to remember where you are from, what you did, what you experienced and to not deny the tasteless part of you. If not, it‘s just like saying that your personality came in one block one day, although it is a process.<br /><br />This also reminds me the way that the mass medias always present art, or entertainment (call it how you want) as a pyramidal stuff. I mean, something with a top, and if we, as an audience, don’t appreciate who is on this top (who mass media usually put on there), we are considered as has-beens. A decade ago, 2be3 were everywhere. Personally, I do respect the fact that people I don’t like, artistically speaking, has an audience and I consider they are useful to it but I think it is incredible that 2be3 won the “best band of the year award” in 97!<br /><br />I think there is no hierarchy between artists objectively, everything is linear (Objectively, you cannot say that Mozart is better than Lorie who is better than Adamo who is better than The Beatles, etc. They all are on the same line, because for the most easy-listening music, as for the most hardly-listening music, there is an audience). It is just a question of audience and context. Patrick Sebastien’s “on fait tourner les serviettes” is more appropriate for a wedding ceremony than a Bartok piece, isn’t it?<br /><br />But I regret that every artist doesn’t have the same visibility in the Medias and that audience doesn’t really have the possibility to extend their artistic tastes.<br /><br />So I don’t agree with Jean-Claude when he says, during interviews and in the film JCVD too, that he received everything from life (glory, etc) although he didn’t give anything to the world. In fact, he gave a lot to his fans, acting in Karate films. He did a lot for this audience and we should respect that.<br /><br />You don’t like Jean-Claude? It is choice that has to be respected, but even if you don’t like him, or his films, even if you don’t even see one of them, you know him. He is one of the cultural references that almost everybody shares, some part of the collective conscience. I guess you can go almost anywhere on this planet and just say “Jean-Claude Van Damme” to an unknown person and I am sure you will become friend instantly. Thank you Jean-Claude ;) We all are contemporary of you and I am happy to live in the same world that you are living in. </p><p></p><div align="justify"></div><div align="justify"></div><div align="center"><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66P7ro2YotU&feature=related"><span style="font-size:180%;">Tribute to Jean-Claude</span></a></div>sedo6http://www.blogger.com/profile/01568273901040112623noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815747406969269483.post-7391015296120859092009-03-16T08:32:00.000-07:002009-03-16T08:35:52.971-07:00JCVD 2<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBmTA51qGzM&NR=1">This</a> is a sample of what you can expect from the out of step humour (humour décalé?) and from Jean-Claude performance in the film "JCVD".<br /><br />There was an error in the translation. They replaced "You don't need to use a flash when ou take a picture of a rabbit who has already red-eyes" by "If there was no more oxigen, planes and birds would crash".<br /><br />Enjoy it!sedo6http://www.blogger.com/profile/01568273901040112623noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815747406969269483.post-29170711315042868822009-03-16T07:59:00.000-07:002009-03-16T08:18:47.425-07:00JCVD<div align="justify">Let’s talk about the film <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TAMobwJwFYY&feature=related4">« JCVD »</a> which would change your point of view on Jean-Claude. </div><div align="justify"></div><br /><br /><div align="justify"></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313801733444954930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 166px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjIn1K-0HGhU4YkhIIkkdQ1vapwJOh9rZRDuUO4ox6KztaSaEvGLbgrdZaWciUsWVvIOMvqmlu_r51gvWZYi66WgtcvUZ1m2uVRo5pvr_LnOZlelzIK3VKxtdc2jRnoocuv0ok0jFhCTvg/s320/jcvd.jpg" border="0" /> <div align="justify"><br />It is a very atypical film because it mixes biographical parts of Jean-Claude’s life and fictional elements. And sometimes, the frontier between them disappears and this put the members of the audience in a strange state of mind, especially because the biographical elements are related to very private and painful things like his divorce, the fact that he became has been, the fact than French audience always make fun of him, his relation with his parents, his age, etc.<br /><br />You will see a Jean-Claude almost weak (in the opposite of the image that vehiculates his filmography), who got older and whose humanity makes him brighter than ever.<br /><br />This film which is not just a comedy, but also a tribute to American hold-up scene with very dark scenes sometimes, and which contains a real Belgium spirit is really a great surprise. I recommend you to watch it as soon as possible.<br /><br />PS: Contrary to the trailer, there is almost no big action scene in JCVD, but this film is also nothing but Karate ;)</div>sedo6http://www.blogger.com/profile/01568273901040112623noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815747406969269483.post-17850289749181716002009-03-08T09:40:00.000-07:002009-03-08T09:42:00.663-07:00Having fun <br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/oOXI5c88HbM&hl=fr&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/oOXI5c88HbM&hl=fr&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>alexishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07686208423021764552noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815747406969269483.post-90505076666943479392009-03-08T09:37:00.000-07:002009-03-08T09:38:51.358-07:00<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BgtvEjCSM_0&hl=fr&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BgtvEjCSM_0&hl=fr&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />news about JCVD in Cannesalexishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07686208423021764552noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815747406969269483.post-66401917663928071042009-03-08T09:05:00.000-07:002009-03-08T09:23:42.134-07:00If you question yourself about "life" maybe you see eye to eye with this JCVD's philosophy give comment and leave someone holding the baby !! <br />"La vie c'est quelque chose de tres fort et de tres beau....

Don't be afraid to like beautiful things, whatever it is.</div>Cédric ze pectinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03647523484644368578noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4815747406969269483.post-45472226644764561452009-02-12T12:56:00.000-08:002009-02-12T13:54:52.618-08:00Liko Van Damme<div align="justify"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2KXFQHBAiVQ559IfYQYFoynL0hXW9UGSS8qwl_C9TfMnd8Y2f9SZX8JGpDvf6G-Aqmb_DV8tUGRwVhZjTueyZDsC-3tDES4OrNCTUG4PhCBbB_caNVNeP2C9UjO8e5gZ27g0iM-twOA/s1600-h/LIKOVandamme.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5302018780547239746" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2KXFQHBAiVQ559IfYQYFoynL0hXW9UGSS8qwl_C9TfMnd8Y2f9SZX8JGpDvf6G-Aqmb_DV8tUGRwVhZjTueyZDsC-3tDES4OrNCTUG4PhCBbB_caNVNeP2C9UjO8e5gZ27g0iM-twOA/s320/LIKOVandamme.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />This is my daughter Liko who is a big fan of Jean-Claude too. On this picture, she's trying to do like her idol : a "grand écart facial" (sorry, someone could translate this for me, please? David! HELP!!). She has a pretty flexible body, so I think she will succeed soon.

Recently, I have seen a program on TV whose topic was handicap, and the father of a guy who went blind when he was 30 told that he realized tha the daily life acts ask so much and needs the biggest efforts. I know a blind couple who have a baby. It sounds unreal but if we were in the same situation, we would surely go through this too. Because our body is just the vehicle of our mind who contain more than you can imagine. we are super heros!<br /><br />"When you take an elevator...you are thinking. About a lot of things : some creations, some people, some memories...So, spiritually speaking we are never alone! but physically, "in the envelop", if I am alone...well...I am here. And I stay here...until the doors open. And then I start walking. I move my envelop. To my everyday mission."

That's true but don't forget that brain is a muscle too! Jean-Claude is MAYBE one of the greatest philisophers of the century and thanks to this blog we will share his thoughts.<br /><br />We will introduce the reflections of Jean-Claude on Time, Space, Mankind, Love and oxygen.<br /><br />"I am fascinated by the air. If you remove the air from the sky, birds fall down on the ground…and airplanes do too…at the same time, you cannot touch it… it exist and it doesn’t exist…It feeds man even if he is not hungry…C’est magique… The air is beautiful but you cannot see it, it is soft but you cannot touch it…the air is a little bit like my brain".
