What's even more impressive, is he kisses the big strapping lad he started the fight with in the first place! Okay, so, ostensibly it was to steal the oxygen in his lungs when underwater, but we suspected ulterior motives...

If they rise from B movie exploitation flicks to A grade movies you can tell because they choose to show less and less flesh. Schwarzenegger is a good example; his early films (Conan etc.) often were little more than an excuse to have him dressed in a jock strap, in Red Heat he had to do a nude shower scene, Predator had him stripped and covered in mud; but by the time he made T2, Twins and the films that followed he got to keep all his clothes on.
Jason S. only does B movies - so kit off, show us yer pecs etc.

Perhaps that is why i don't like the transporter films, i have no interest in seeing a half naked man.
