Nigerian-American comedian Godfrey does a funny bit about action movie star Jason Statham. In a Statham movie, Statham’s always got a job to do: “I’m the beekeeper. I keep bees.” Godfrey imagines Statham’s next movie will be called “The Librarian.” The perennially shaved-headed and scowling Englishman who commands eye-popping degrees of butt-kickery, will appear at a library table where people are talking loudly, and menacingly mutter—“I thought I told you to be quiet.”
