Did you know he was asked to be in Star Wars according to an issue of Entertainment Weekly? He turned it down because he didn't have the freedom to commit himself to three movies due to the band.
hmmm

didnt they supposedly ask Nsync too but everyone took the piss so they were edited out

Jon in star wars, its laughable

he wanted to be in the Sopranos but they told him he wasnt hard enough

Actually they told him he was too big of a star to hang with the Sopranos as himself and too recognizably associated with New Jersey to play a fictional character.

Yeah, I heard about that. That was perhaps the stupidest thing I've ever heard. *N Sync in Star Wars. Ha! And one of my friends said that it would be great to put them in there. (If there was a barfing emoticon here, I'd gladly use it at this moment.)

Why doesn't anyone complain about Tico painting and sculpting and Richie and Dave doing their solo projects?

I enjoy seeing Jon's acting work. It's a different creative outlet for him just as the other guys have their creative outlets. He's not limited to making music any more than Tico is. It's not as if Jon should sit home and do nothing while waiting for Richie, Dave, and Tico to do their outside things. Jon has shown he's quite capable of doing a solo CD along with several movies in the time it takes the other guys to do their outside projects.

they main reason why i'm disturbed by jons acting is beacuse he isn't that good on it! he can play very good music but his a worthless actor. also the other members of bon jovi are not doing solo projects thats generating much money (jons acting maby not make that much money now, but if he put some more time in it, it will!).

Movie critics by and large disagree with you on Jon's acting abilities. Maybe that's what really disturbs so many fans--he gets great reviews for his acting, much better than for the band's music. Jon has already won a Best Newcomer award for his acting and the majority of his reviews are positive.

I think his own fans are harder on him than non-fans. We know him as Jon Bon Jovi and it's harder for us to see him as a character. But I can say the same thing for any actor I'm vaguely familiar with. If I go see Tom Hanks in a movie, I'll go out saying "Tom Hanks did this." It's easier to remember the actor than the name of the character. Does that mean Tom Hanks is a bad actor? No.

If jon someday will have success in hollywood every movie journalist probably will say that it's because his good looks or because his a rockstar. Aren't he afraid that he will be (or already are) just another musician that's trying on to be an actor.
great actors like tom hanks, robert de niro, brad pitt (yes he his good!) and so on will always be the big names in hollywood so why even try? I mean low budgets movies like vampire los muertos (or what it's called) aren't something to be proud over!
I think that jon should spend the rest of his career to repair the gap he has greated between his former rock image and his new mainstream-vh1 image!
but he should of course do what he likes, and I will probably watch every one of his movies, just because he is jon bon jovi...
