Stunt Babies

What makes a great action movie great? Obviously, the action! Have you ever noticed how the action often moves around quickly, in tight spaces, through small halls and rooms? Do you think that adults have that kind of energy, agility, and flexibility. NO, of course Hollywood doesn't want you to know this but most of the stunts are performed by babies and kids. So this is dedicated to all of the baby stunt actors out there. I know you work hard. Will "Taurus" the worldwide stuntman organization ever recognize baby stuntman? Did you see Big J in "Pirates of the Caribbean" or even see his name in the credits? NO. Did you see credits for Little J in all 3 Star Wars prequels? NO. Did you see credits for Little I in about 17 Pokemon movies released in China, Japan, Korea, and straight to DVD in Canada? NO!! Please, recognize these talented and fearless stuntbabies and children for their tireless work. They deliver performances no adult ever could.
Notice how all of their thoughts are on the 2009 "Taurus" Awards, is it a dream they will ever realize?
