Ok, so you wouldn't want to fuck Jack, but you gotta admit... Jack's a hell of an actor.
Christian Slater???? He hasn't done a good movie since Heathers, and he was playing a very bad caricature of Jack in that one. Slater's just plain awful, imitating Jack or not. He is not worthy to wash jack's jockstrap.
Jack is the Keith Richards of movies - a relatively normal guy with great talent and real everyday vices who excels at what he does because he really loves his work, rather than the usual queens in cinema who preen about fluffing their high school cheerleader egos and phoning in bad performances for cash. The thing that makes jack great is that he's probably a dick in real life, but not a prententious dick. He's probably just a depressed guy who'd spout out his gripes like the rest of us over a beer. He projects a pragmatic disgust at most everything around him, but at the same time, he recognizes the need to get his ya yas out and not take life too seriously. In many regards, he's the everyman's id.
Bruce Willis shouldn't even be allowed in the same room with Jack.
