Colin Farrell

[Deleted]

Eventhough I am not a fan of CF, I have to say that what this woman is trying to do is wrong. The tape was suppose to be private, and if she goes through with selling it, then she is untrustworthy.

Now with Whats-her-name threatening to release this tape? Eh. I sorta feel bad for the guy. Shameful, I know. *sigh*

Why is it shameful to feel bad for someone who's getting screwed? He trusted her, and she stabbing him the back.

Gororoba He doesn't look as cute and boyish as he used to but I don't think he looks bad in those pics.

I think he looks pretty freaking awful! Maybe it's the outfit but I'm shocked the studio didn't force him to lose a few pounds before they started shooting.

I don't think it's about honor or reputation. Really it's about trust and simple human decency. What kind of person sells a sex tape of someone they supposedly cared about? I don't care if the person is Colin Farrell or the June Cleaver. It's a vile thing to do to a person. If you shoot film somewhere and accidently get some passerby on tape- you have to have a release from them to use the film. Why should this be any different? She shouldn't be allowed to release it or profit from it without his permission.

Dammit. There you go bringing logic and decency into the conversation, and now my desire to snark on poor Colin has shriveled into nothingness. Gah! I just called him "poor Colin"! I need a lie down...

Here's what I don't get...if these people are so protective of their, er, image, why make the movie in the first place? Where was this sense of modesty when they were squatting and totting before the camera?

See, I think whether you make it big or not, you ought not to be making no freak video -- ain't nothing wrong with a little bump and grind but keep it behind closed doors between you, the person you freaking with, and God. You know -- don't ask, don't tell, and heaven forfend, don't record it.

Sheesh....

Precisely. I don't get it either. I am kind of surprised that Colin, who's never made any bones about his sex life by freely admitting to this, that and the other wants this stopped. I totally understand that he feels betrayed and er... shafted. But I would have thought he wouldn't give a damn, like someone said rather than harm his reputation, it would only cement it. And since he seems to rather enjoy his reputation, I wouldn't have thought this would bother him.

But it apparently does and the woman really shouldn't be allowed to get away with it. Still, if only that pesky tape never existed eh...

I think he looks awful, and it pains me to say that, because I used to be a fan and to find him scorching. I just can't understand what happened and why he let himself go. Colin is a good actor, but much of his success and star power were due to his looks, and he's losing his meal ticket big time.
To think he was regarded as the next Brad Pitt for a hot second.

I may be wrong but I think that outfit is a flame retardent suit. They're bulky. I mean he's not as slim as he was but he's not huge either. He was down in FLA long enough that if they wanted him to be buff he could have been. Mann may be going for the broke down detective look. Mann did say this version wasn't going to be the slick fashion show that the TV series was. But a dark more gritty, realistic version. I think the look works for that. Of course if he stays with that after filming I'll be a little bummed!

Without a doubt, he shouldn't have made the video. Maybe he was drunk, maybe he really liked the girl or both, and thought he could trust her. His stupidity doesn't excuse her betrayal.

squatting and totting

Just had to pop in and say this is one of the best euphemisms I've ever heard.

Re Colin: he does seem to have crossed the line between youthful recklessness and all-out desperation.

I saw a preview for The New World this weekend and it looks pretty good. He could use a hit.

Beer BOOBS? Eeeeeeewwwwwww.

Beer boobs, the skankiest man-skank who ever skanked, and a screen adaptation of 'Miami Vice,' eh?
That's what you get, Hollywood.
