Somewhat. Jazz is an accumulative genre so anything it fuses with becomes, and expands it making it theoretically infinite. Blues, however, is intentionally limited but moreso as a basis for the rhythmic elements that make rock, jazz, funk, and r&b.

I think rock is dead, and rightfully so. Then again, I'm hoping with the internet's eye openings of the worlds of music as a whole, that concept genre itself will be someday.

Terence Hill, as recently confirmed during an interview to an Italian TV talk-show, was offered the role but rejected it because he considered it "too violent". Dustin Hoffman and John Travolta declined the role for the same reason. When Al Pacino was considered for the role of John Rambo, he turned it down when his request that Rambo be more of a madman was rejected.
Al Pacino = God
