Actor Penn Claims Lost Movie Role Over Iraq Views

This is great. Perhaps these people would behave more responsibly and think before they act if only they were held to account for their actions.

I liked Sean Penn a lot -- a true acting talent. But there are no circumstances that would lead me to so much as rent a video in which he appears after his providing aid and comfort to the enemy.

Same with Susan Sarandon -- except multipled by 100. They can call it "blacklisting" if they want -- but if people stopped buying their movies it would eliminate their platform for their outspoken-ness.

I knew we had a minor victory when my wife announced, "I really like the show West Wing. But I can't watch it anymore". Click!

Actor Penn Claims Lost Movie Role Over Iraq Views

What did I tell you.....he's not a great actor and does have trouble getting work; and now he'd better prove the lawsuit to be based on merit because this is the last chunk of change he will be getting any time soon from Hollywood.

BTW point that fact out to your cronie, D. Ray, who thinks he is an authority on everything and adamantly believes Penn is a great acteur........only in Penn's and Ray's dreams btw!

That is good news. Now maybe we won't have to hear all of those pompus asses trying to tell me how I should think. Clooney is another, whose movies have suffered at the box office lately. Of course, how can we forget how Alec baldwin pole vaulted into the center sqare on Hollywood sqares. And the guy didn't keep his promise to return to England.
