oh , please...Feb 5th, 2008 - 03:14:02

The guy was partying with some little floosie and having a good old time.
He partied a little too much. He died. That's life in HOLLYWOOD.
It's happened a thousand times before and it will continue to happen.
Stop trying to make up some propeganda type story about his Damaged Psyche because he played a comic book villain.

One should not comment on things out of their realm of understanding, especially given the context and timing. Why say anything at all? You obviously do not understand the process of actors who are driven artists and the realities of being a vulnerable human being and a magnetic celebrity, sought after by all the wrong people, sadly.

I can comment, given the facts and the life in the fastlane lifestyle.
Incredible in it's infinite sadness Heath's death is not a new thing to happen to pop icons going back to the 20's. The pain killers the booze the all night sex parties...Oh I am sure he was with Mary.
His talent will be missed I thoroughly enjoyed A KNIGHTS TALE and I still wait for BatMan The DARK KNIGHT.
Be sad for him, be mournful, understand him all you need to BUT don't be surprised this happened.
It will happen again. IN HOLLYWOODLAND it always does.

Acting is easy.Feb 12th, 2008 - 02:59:21

Actors are the highest paid people on earth for doing the easiest JOB.
People who emerse themselves into whatever role they're playing are
cooks. Jonny Depp? Yep...a cook. No they do not make dinner..they are cuckoo cuckoo.....I can act and have acted.The only reason I am not famous is I am not dropping everything I have to do in life just to go do something for someone to get an audition. Been there done that. I quit because it's all about the LOOK. Average looking people are not chosen for the big roles. Look at John C. Reilly...a good actor...ugly dude.
He's a big name in Hollywood right now for a comedy about a COOK.
Without backing and time and effort it's not worth it to chase the dream.
I act everyday. I sell trucks. I made a lot of money doing it................KNOW WHY? Acting is easy.
So don't give actors more credit than they deserve. All of them that is. It's the writers who have talent and Directors who make pictures.
Anyway. Heath passing away is a tragedy but stop with this artsy shmartsy nonsense about a deep understanding of the craft. It's easy.
