"crime doesn't pay"
π€
Except that it does... a lot.
crime doesn't pay unless you have the support of already rich people
prison isn't harsh enough - Trejo
alternative:
if this thing has a sequel, i don't want to be in it - Trejo
100% sequel proof method, directors hate him!
You can just have a new movie with a different villain though...
Danny trejo lived through horrific shit and came out the other side. Always nice to see people who remember where they come from and do what they can to help others going through what they did.
Neat clause
A bit out of context without considering that every character he plays is a bad guy. He was one.
And the point is to scare children (his children), so they avoid commiting the same mistakes he did. Any normal adult would notice this, right?
I believe their is an anecdote about his character robbing somewhere and the actor stopping to give the director notes about how to actually do it.
Reminds me a bit of when Christopher Lee told Peter Jackson how people actually react to being stabbed in the back.
Not a film, but he was a playable character (as himself) in the "Call of the Dead" map for Call of Duty Zombies. But even as a good guy, that mode is endless survival, so he inevitability dies in the end.
Edit: I guess he technically doesn't die if you survive long enough that the game resets at the ~70 hour 'killscreen'.
How come one is President of America then?
I don't think children should watch Danny Trejo movies.
Spy kids?
Was he a villain in that?
spy kids though
SPOILER ALERT!
Kids watching him in breaking bad with their kids appreciate this
