Answer: Chuck Norris

 Norris is also the star and producer of "Walker, Texas Ranger," which is actually a good series. I just cannot picture him saying "To be or not to be, that is the question."
2. This native New Yorker is known for his tough guy roles such as "Judge Dredd" and "Rambo." But I don't want to see him in a cutesy romantic movie like "Mrs. Doubtfire", and I especially don't want to see him in drag. This actor is ________.

Answer: Sylvester Stallone

 Please whatever you do, don't put Sly in a dress.
3. We can't seem to get rid of this action hero. He always seems to come back, returning in such movies as "Total Recall" and "Collateral Damage." What is worse, we have already seen him give birth in the movie "Junior." But that is okay as long as we don't see him play a nebbish nerdy hypochondriac. I am referring to ______.

Answer: Arnold Schwarzenegger

 I just can't picture Arnie in a role intended for Woody Allen.
4. This action star kicked his way through such movies as "Above the Law" and "Hard to Kill." I just don't want to see him play a television doctor. This star is _____.

Answer: Steven Seagal

 Whatever you do, don't hand him a scalpel.
5. This funny comedian, who is not really an action star, once wrote material for Sid Caesar and he wrote, directed and starred in "Manhattan," and "Love and Death." He also starred as a (sort of) hero in "Sleeper." I just hope they never let him play Superman. He is _____.

Answer: Woody Allen

 Is it a Bird? Is it a Plane? No it's Woody Allen come to save the day.

Answer: Jean-Claude Van Damme

 Van Damme starred as Walker in the 1994 movie "Timecop." The movie also featured Mia Sara, Bruce McGill and Ron Silver.

Answer: Dolph Lundgren

 Please don't let him sing "I Feel Pretty" or "America." The other answers are people who played various James Bond villains.
8. This action star was all over the field and he busted out in "Stone Cold." However, while he may have danced on the field, please don't let him dance in movies like "Flashdance." This actor is _____.

Answer: Brian Bosworth

 I hope everyone got this right. Brian Bosworth was a linebacker for Oklahoma, who played briefly in the NFL with the Seattle Seahawks, before retiring and becoming an actor. Bob Cummings was a leading actor of the 1940's who later came to television with the show "Love That Bob." Bobby Van and Michael Kidd were famous dancers of the 1940' and 1950's.
9. This action star can actually act as he has proven in such films as "Shaft" and "Pulp Fiction." I still don't want to see him play the title role in the life of Michael Jackson. He is _______.

Answer: Samuel L. Jackson

 Samuel L. Jackson has also appeared in "Unbreakable" and "Star Wars Attack of the Clones." However, I think he would be miscast as Michael Jackson. (Put your own Michael Jackson joke here.)
10. This action star appeared in "The Fast and the Furious." Just don't let him play a mama's boy. He is ______.

Answer: Vin Diesel

 Vin Diesel recently starred in "XXX." I was unsure if that was his agent number or the film's rating.
