# Episode Question Asker
1 The Dark Hand What inspired you to make this TV show? Adrian, age 11
When I was young I always liked cartoons! I really hoped that someday I would be a cartoon character. Cartoons can do all kinds of things that I cannot do in my real life. After so many, so many, so many years later, the people, the children still can remember me. Today, my dream has come true. I love cartoons!
2 The Power Within Why do you do all your own stunts in your movies? Eric, age 11
I was doing stunts for so many years. The audience see the actor or the bad guy, they do all the stunts, then the audience just claps. Then, I look at my friends, "Hey, that's not the actor, that's me!" Then I promised myself, "One day when I become a star I will do my own stunts." I will turn around and let the audience see that's me, that's not a double. And also, I want to show my children, my grandchildren, "Look, that's your grandfather! That's your father!" And besides, I just like it.
3 The Mask of El Toro Fuerte How do you keep in shape? Adrian, age 11
Most importantly is the training, training, training. All kinds of exercise, like swimming, boxing, badminton, tennis, jogging. It's good for your shape. Remember, you must exercise! Exercise and you keep in shape!
4 Enter the Viper Do you ever get scared doing a stunt? Ernie, age 9
Yes, of course. Every time when I'm doing a stunt, my heart just starts beating, boom boom! Chasing, jumping over the building across the motorcycle, into the car, outside the car, in wide shot! - [Pants] - I'm crazy, but I'm not stupid. I know how far I can jump, how high I can go - Boom boom, boom boom - Of course I'm afraid, I'm not Superman. I just like to do it; especially in the theatre when the audience, "Yeah!" Everything is worth it.
5 Shell Game Do you like to watch television? Alexis, age 9
Yes, I learn so many things on television! Even my English, I learnt from TV. I like educational channels. Even from cartoons I can lean something. I love TV.

Even training I watch on TV. TV is my teacher. I love TV!
6 Project A, for Astral Who do you admire and why? Audrey, age 11
Oh, so many people I admire! Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, these people have talent. They can use the computer, special effects, not follow the traditional like me, you know, I hurt myself jumping off and onto a real car; they can use the fake people, and they can use a dinosaur! Just two patterns, do, do, do... When I look at those kinds of people, they really, they're those kinds of people I really admire. Wow!

When I was a kid? When I was a kid, I wanted to be a rich man, and then I wanted to be a hero; a fireman, a policeman, and sometimes I wanted to be a president. All kinds of things I know in the real life I cannot be, so this is why now I really like to be a movie star. Why? Because I can do whatever I like to do in the movie, just by being myself.

9 The Rock Do you have a favorite color? Jill, age 8
My favorite color... white. Blue, light blue. Green, is good. When I look at the sky, all blue, all white, so beautiful. Sometimes when in a movie, I'm wearing a red, pink, and purple; I don't like that. Mostly I like white. White makes you like calm, gentleman, nice person, and handsome.
10 The Jade Monkey Do you have any pets? Pamela, age 8
I love pets! Very, very good for the human! It's your partner, it's your friend. If you have a pet you have to be with him every day. I remember, long time ago I had three St. Bernards, big dogs! I love big ones! The problem is, all those years I'd been travelling around making movies. Six months later, when I'm coming back, I said "Mwah, mwah, mwah." He bites me! He doesn't listen to me anymore! So it's no good, but later on when I retire and settle down, yes.

14 Through the Rabbit Hole Were you cool when you were a kid? Jeremy, age 9
All the kids in the school, they didn't like me. I remember we were testing the skill in the school; one by one we'd do a summersault, do different tricks, to pass the test. They all pushed me, they go first, they go first, I'm the last one! What am I going to do? Everybody would do a summersault, I'd go out and do one summersault and go like this. That low. My nose just touched the ground. Then the teacher, "Ah, good!" So I think I'm cool.

Land on the car with all the luggage, then I slide down, then open the door, go to the car, in one shot! Then you can see! I like to do these kinds of things. If there's something I cannot do it's to fly over the Grand Canyon. No, I'm not going to do that!

When I was young, of course, some of my teachers, who I just think they are great. But later on when I'm growing up, when I'm making movies, then I find out my role models are Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd, Buster Keaton... how difficult it is for them to make a movie, because in that day, silent movies without all the special effects, without all the protection, they still do a great stunt. That's my role model. One day, I want to be there. Anybody is better than me. That's my role model.
22 Rumble in the Big House If you could be any animal, which animal would you be? Johnathon, age 12

48 Chi of the Vampire Why is it so important to be defensive, rather than offensive? David, age 13
On the bus, when somebody comes to grab you, always defense! When they touch you, you just... turn, turn, you know... protect. Everything is about protection. It's better than fighting somebody, because for one small argument and you hurt somebody, you can never be happy in your whole life. So just watch in my movies, you can see there is a lot of protective things. In real life, defense is better than to hit somebody. Remember, yeah.

But I'm fine, I still can... still do the things, bouncing, bouncing bouncing!
