Chances are, I will never watch Robert Rodriguez’s The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl 3-D. However, I have now watched the video of Taylor Lautner promoting the 2005 film on Access Hollywood by showcasing his extreme martial arts skills three times. Seriously impressive and screaming GYMKATA REMAKE! (No, I’m not ready to let that dream go.)
Watch that video after the jump, then check out two more clips in which young Lautner discusses his first-degree black belt (“I like this belt,” he giggles, “It’s like silk”) and how difficult it is when your focus is constantly shifting between school and filming (“So you’re just getting into it, Okay, that’s what those Indians did when they came to the States, ‘Oh, Taylor Lautner to set!’”).

i love your gymkata obsession…
Speaking as a martial artist. That kid is good!!!
Gymkata…no..but in a bourne spin off where he plays jason bournes son or something..yes…he and matt damon kinda sort of look alike…although that pairing might cause movie screens to spontaeously combust due to all that hotness.
action star for real!!!!
That was him in that horrible movie.
The trend for him continues…
Your crazy hes hot hotter than ever!!!
Definitely a skilled martial artist…but perhaps a little overzealous with the screaming?? :c/
If I hear or read ‘Taylor Lautner’ one more time, I’m going to………..never mind-all I want to say is I don’t understand all the fuss over this dweebie looking toad faced runt! He’s about as handsome as my dachsund from the rear. Actually, the dog looks better.
karena, I could not have said it any better. He is NOT attractive!!
He’s 17. He’s still a kid. Give him a break. There’s no reason to be mean. Let’s all leave him alone until he’s 19 or so, okay? He’s an actor trying to make a living. If he’s still working when he’s 19 or 20, then fire away.
Yeah, because another year is gonna make a difference. He’s still won’t be hot.
u wish ur dog was better but the thruth is that taylor is ten times better and u know it:),but u just think that ur cooler than that but u r not!!!!!
I’ll be the last to admit that when my son watches “Sharkboy”…yeah, I’ll watch the whole thing with him, lol. It’s not a masterpiece, but it hits right on with its target audience – kids who dream of being heroes. And this kid kicks butt!
Yeah, he can kick Edwards pasty white butt.
Holy crap!
I am scared.
So was I!! He reminds me of Ernie Reyes Jr. So impressive!
This is so cute (and a little frightening). Love his posing for the camera, also.
My sister is going to die when she sees it (?)
LOVE HIM! hahaha 2005 I remember he was in cheaper by the dozen 2(not a good movie) that was the only thing I saw him in before Twilight.
He is a cutie pie.
