For those of you who don't know; Vinnie Jones was a football player before he became an actor(that's european football for you Americans). And like in the movies, he was badass. Here's a video of Gazza talking about when Vinnie grabbed his balls and told him to stay put during a footballmatch:

And now Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
Thanks for reading. I couldn't find enough interesting trivia to make one post about each, so I just smashed them together.
Btw, here's the real video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyCw5RLDyYw

All trivia can be found on imdb.com
Next up is: "Raiders of the Lost Ark"

Good rule of thumb: if you want a character that looks like he beats up people, hire a person that actually beats up people.

I never new he died while shooting this! He was one of my favorites and I loved his voice! Very sad!
Octopussy95

WHERE IS ROCKNROLLA 2, GUY RITCHIE?

How often does Vinnie Jones get arrested for beating people up?
MikeyDoesThings
They were gonna make a statue of him when he used to play football. the statue was gonna be of him squeezing another player's junk

Great movies! If you haven't seen Rocknrolla you should

#1 He can't do an Irish accent either

I think that all is what is best about his character's dialog. For all we know it could be complete jibberish, but it works
GuanYuThatsWho
As an Irish its understandable, he's laying it on heavy but definitely makes sense

Subtle Rick Roll in there.....bastard.

These movies are like modern day Shakespearean comedies. I wish Jason Statham would do more comedy movies. He is very funny.

I stopped reading at "Enjoy some Snatch"
TheSacrificialButter
Why? Snatch is awesome

I know! That's when it had me. Oh wait, you mean the movie.

Vinnie Jones, though I wouldn't put it past Gazza if it was for a bet or laugh

My uncle used to play footy in the streets with gazza before he got scouted. Rip uncle Gary

I love everything about this picture
hanshotthird
Is he grabbing Colin Firth?
bachterman
naw, that be gazza, the silver prince of british soccer.
IReallyDontHaveAnythingToSay
Paul Gascoigne
pocketpython
who is pretty much the polar opposite to Colin Firth
Murdoc741
Dude looks like that actor from kingsmen. Jolly good rogering sir
HamRoll
Colin Firth is the actor. Paul Gascoigne AKA Gazza is the footballer

Ford was great. I couldn't imagine Connery as Brick Top.
Treblaine
Wanna see a kind of prototype Brick Top https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fadw_-4_Y3A
GenerallyKenobi
As much as I love Connery, I don't want bricktop to be anyone else.
GrimRiderJ
Yeah he was fucking brilliant. Thank you Connery for being douchey
Robvp
"No thanksh Turkish, I'm shweet enough"
CasuallyMasturbatingInPublic
That was my favourite line of his
dragon3leg
On of my favorite lines in cinema.
Anthraxious
Same. I doubt Sean Connery would come off as being that horrifying. Alan Ford was awesome in this.
daf4ever
Brick Top is one of the best Villians I've ever seen on a movie.

Abaolutely, along with Hans Landa
zackofspades
Yeah I don't think the "you can't afford me" was even all that shitty a remark, I think Connery grew sick of acting etc.
GenerallyKenobi
He did quit acting like a year later lol
Irishda
He turned down roles in both the matrix and Lord of the rings. After they both became huge hits, he agreed to the next script he saw 1
Irishda
The league of extraordinary gentlemen. He hated working with the director, McG, so much, he quit acting immediately after
zackofspades
The funny is that I actually liked that movie, I know critics hated it or whatever but I had fun.
wormfood
Connery got old and couldn't tell what was "cool" anymore. I think that hurt him personally more than acting.
Flyndaran
He was born with a massive ego, but age eventually makes us all look the fool.
zackofspades
Well, a very comfortable and wealthy fool in Mr. Connery's place...also your mother is a whore ^_^
