I'm a fan of Russell, think he's a great actor and like his performances.
That said, I make no excuses for this incident. It was wrong. It was stupid. I hated to see it. I'm glad the victim was not badly hurt. I hope it is the long needed wakeup call for Crowe. He brought whatever occurs on himself by not controlling his temper.
However, this comment...
... oh, well, he opens his big mouth, thinks Robert DeNiro, and Clooney shouldn't do commercials and was angry at the Bafta Producer, didn't get along with Bierko, argues with people that he makes movies with, is moody, so he is LONG OVERDUE FOR PRISON TIME?!?!?
What universe do you live in?

Miss Marple, don't attack another poster just because s/he has an opinion you don't agree with.
And, Russell's been involved in other violent altercations. I remember he was in a pub fight in England in 2002.
It's interesting that IMDB doesn't currently have ANY upcoming projects listed for him.
ETA: His racist comments bug me even more than the phone-tossing incident. How incredibly dumb of him. First of all, he's not even Australian. He's from New Zealand. And (at least as far as I know) he doesn't even hold Aussie citizenship. (He's talked about doing it in the past, but I don't know if he's taken the plunge or not.) Second, Australia is a nation of immigrants, just like America is. Europeans haven't been there very long! Major settlement only began after the American Revolution (because England needed a new place to send its malcontents/prisoners). Third, how big of an ass do you have to be to speak that way to the poor girl who's just trying to serve you a meat pie.
Jackass.
IMDB quote from Rus. Can I just say, as a resident of Los Angeles, how very happy that makes me? It's interesting that he doesn't mention Asia. Thousands of Australians are probably trying to figure out how hard it would be to fake a tidal wave right about now.

Oh. My. God. I don't believe it.... He's at it AGAIN. Attacking George Clooney I repeat for the 627th time in a row...What. is. WRONG with him?!! Look Crusty McRageyRage - why don't you just fuck George and get it over with? Just work him out of your system. Your obsession is becoming a bit too obvious now. ...apparently this was pre-phone attack and arrest....to which George must've seriously put down some heavy karmic voodoo on McManboobs after perhaps hearing about his comments. Clooney is most likely taking the high road, and restraining himself from kicking a man when he's 'in a deep dark well.' LMAO!!

Rus really needs to shut up. Doesn't he realize that Clooney is one of the most popular actors around with both industry folk and the general public? He's not doing himself any favors by attacking him.
My dad, who could not possibly care less about slebs/entertainment, even called Rus a jackass when he heard that Rus had dissed De Niro.

Working with Crowe must be one of the most taxing, miserable experiences for cast and crew, especially cast and crew "beneath him" which is pretty much everybody, according to him. What a tool.

What universe do you live in? The same universe as the cops who arrested crusty Mcpigface and the judge who sentenced him. ;D I'm assuming most of us live in a universe where constantly roughing up people and getting physically violent is wrong. He has a history of this type of behavior, not the least of which is throwing a Bafta producer against the wall and roughing him up because his long-winded acceptance speech was cut short. Don't get me started on his attacks against some of his own fans, which are vicious to say the least, and too numerous to count. Dumbass deserves all the schadenfreude in the world. What a douchebag.

Manboobs is a total pig and asshole. However, he's clearly a miserable person, and that's somewhat comforting. He obviously hates himself and his life. Not that that's an excuse, but it's nice to remember.
I remember on the Other Board that there were allegations that Rusty called someone Maori a "coconut," or something similarly offensive. So I could see him busting out with racial slurs at other times too.

What a Douchebag. Amen. Manboobs' dissing his colleagues, who've never publically said and/or done anything to him, is bad enough, but his resorting to physical violence against innocent people is inexcusable. He's pulled this shit one time too many & it's high time he paid for it, in *every* sense of the word. Put his racism in the mix & you've got the makings of one of the best karmic smackdowns of all time, and not a moment too soon. Miss Marple: I never said that Manboobs deserved to go to prison for the sanctimonious & incredibly stupid things he said about other actors. He deserves it for his track record of assaulting people. In the future, if you disagree with me, fine, but please be polite about it.
