    I just feel like his issues have to be less than 25.

  9. My Hollywood friend has heard a lot of NDA stories about how he wears earbuds and listens to music during hookups which is more funny to me than anything

    I don't think he's a terrible actor (there aren't a lot of those really - just poor direction and/or unimaginative casting), I just get bored of the squintyface mechanic he has leaned into more and more as he ages. reading about how KOTFM was reoriented and rewritten to center his character more made me yearn for whatever the original vision was, I found him easily the least striking member of the ensemble

    pussy posse thing definitely sucks but that has to have been, what, like 25 years ago at this point when he was a dipshit kid?

    well yeah the MGMT stuff is pretty well known publicly

    agreed he’s probably a dipshit but that is mostly just dumb/funny

    Not here. Isn't happening. Supporter

    Leo is a good actor but shitty imo, but he’s not the shittiest person in this film that award goes to Sean Penn. anyway still really looking forward to this one.

    He’s definitely a total piece of shit, that shouldn’t be a question. But so are most people whose movies I watch.

    I also wish it were someone more interesting in the lead, but you can’t deny Wolf and Hollywood. I’m sure PTA will get some great stuff out of him

  15. PTA is also seemingly worse than Leo, not that it's a competition

    It’s not that he’s bad, he’s just been the lead in multiple movies from my favorite directors for the past decade. I’d need to think on actors I’d like to see. Also don’t know the character to know who’d work. Leo could be perfect

    What’s Diedrich Bader up to? Leo is giving DB from Office Space vibes. Give him a shot

    DiCaprio has one of the best filmographies ever for an actor who isn't very good.

    I don't know if this is meant to be sarcastic, but there are plenty of fine-but-limited (but very bankable) performers with impressive filmographies. John Wayne in particular comes to mind.

    He’s good but he’s never the draw for me to see a movie

    I don’t know if Leo is “good” but I always find him entertaining and that’s really all I care about in a movie
