I think they are dying out in a way because the great action stars of the past are probably doing something different or less violent.

Haven't you ever seen The Last Action Hero? That was years ago.

These days though, the action heroes are people like Jason Statham and Vin Disel.

Yup. Jason Statham is pretty good in my opinion. I like Transporter.

I used to think that he got typecast as a 'driver' too much. Then I found out he actually started out as a stunt driver so it wasn't any more typecasting than putting Jackie Chan in a Kung Fu movie.

Because they all got old and wrinkly and no one wants to see them trying to hold on to their days. I mean who wants to see an arthritic Rambo?

where did all the action stars go? the question is where all action movies gone to?? like " the transporter " and " the original mission: impossible " are great action movies, the brilliant " austin powers " series, and " red " is very well written movie. where is a well written scripts that great action movies can come from? all movie productions bring out these horrible remake movies, the original movies were crap in the first place, so why would anyone want to remake a crap movie? how many these so-called " action actors " can really act? two actors in the last five years, can really act in general a movie, are jason stathan and dennis craig. throughout the years, there is one action hero character, we all depend. the actor who plays him changes over the years, and the stories can be predictable and not always a great action movie, we don't care, mostly of time, they delieved a action movie,traditional touch and cheer, the romatic that hero is involved, always a action pack movie. so where did all the action stars go? they don't exist, because one action hero character is always will no. 1, this character is simply known:
