Can someone explain to me who exactly is Bruce Campbell that everyone keeps mentioning? >>
You ever hear any of these quotes? (Think Duke Nukem the video game, or many, many other movies)
Gimme some sugar baby.
Hail to the king.
Who wants some?
(I'm forgetting at least 5 other quotes... time to watch the movie again)
Those were all originally from Army of Darkness, a very campy/hilarious Sam Raimi movie staring Bruce Campbell.
He's a very well known B-movie star, probably the most well known (he has the charisma to never make it as a superstar... He's jsut too funny with the one-liners)
Any Sam Raimi movie that is made has at least a cameo by Bruce Campbell. This is because the Evil Dead/Evil Dead 2/Army of Darkness series put Sam on the map. Plus those two people are very good friends. In the Spider-Man movie, the person who calls Peter Spider-Man for the first time is Bruce Campbell. He had a cameo in this movie as a ring announcer.
EDIT: Wasn't that thief guy on Xena Bruce Campbell also? And I believe the star of Jack of All Trades was Bruce Campbell also.
