Whare is the image? PrometheusX303 23:15, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

Wow. Why didn't anybody call me on that bad spelling?

Speaking of the image, Artemisboy changed the picture. I'm fine with the change, but since Isaacs was nominated for an award for Chamber of Secrets, why not place that (old) picture in the award nominations section? PrometheusX303 22:05, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

I wouldn't mind the Harry Potter pic posted later down in the article, but I changed the main image as the actor himself is not blonde, but a brunette. Thus, I tried to find a decent picture of him in everyday clothes. Artemisboy 23:54, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

I removed the anon comment here about the specifics of Jason's residence. The guy has had problems with a stalker for years, and it's not relevant to the article.nmw 20:58, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Ex-Juggler

Please tell me that's a joke. I remember reading that he was going to become a lawyer...not a juggler... before turning to acting. Skin Crawl 17:48, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Trivia section

I have parked the "Trivia" section of the article here because such sections are now deprecated. This is because they encourage editors to add bits of information to an ever-growing list rather than trying to incorporate them into the article (see the link in the above box for more information).

  • Isaacs has a long-running professional relationship with director Paul W. S. Anderson and producer Jeremy Bolt. Isaacs has appeared in four of Anderson's movies, mostly from his early period including Shopping, Event Horizon and Soldier. He had an uncredited role as Dr. William Birkin (and the narrator) in Resident Evil (2002). He was also set to play Dr. Birkin in Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004), but for some reason left the project. That is why in the 2002 movie the only part of Isaacs' face that can be seen are his eyes; the rest was covered by a medical mask. It is assumed that his role was taken over by Iain Glen.
  • In a 26 November 2006 article published in the San Francisco Chronicle, Isaacs was voted by the author as one of the 13 "Sexiest Men Who Are Real and Alive", while Lucius Malfoy, the character he portrayed in the Harry Potter films, was named as one of the 12 "Sexiest Men Who Were Never Alive".[1]
  • Isaacs writes with his left hand, but uses his right hand when playing sports or when portraying acts of violence in films.[2]
  • He is afraid of horses and spiders.[2]
  • When taking on the role of Lucius Malfoy in the "Harry Potter" films, Issacs disagreed with the producer's idea that Malfoy be in a business suit and created the costume of a dark cape and cane.[citation needed]

I have readded the information into the article. Realistically, moving it to the talk page is the same as simply deleting it. Individual facts on the talk pages of all but the most-trafficed pages is likely to never be reincorporated in the text. When dealing with trivia and trivia sections, I think it is better to simply incorporate the information yourself, delete the information, or leave it for someone else. -- Black Falcon (Talk) 03:08, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Trivia items and quotations have been incorporated into the body of the article or into footnotes. Cheers, Jacklee 15:58, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
