comments: Isn't Jason just the All American Boy? He's just so dang wholesome, you just want to eat him up. Ok, so the vehicle he seems stuck in is getting old and tired (wasn't ONE Free Willy enough?), but Jason makes it worth going along for the ride on. He also played Bastian, in the third installment of one of our favorite European adventure tales, Never Ending Story. Jason comes off as a real wholesome down to earth young man in interviews, still kinda wowed by his stardom. Keep the freshness, Jason, it's what makes you hot. We'd love to see him play more roles. More Jason is more better!
