And cute! I hate to see him go. He will be back, I'm sure.

1. I like him
I hope he does well with his music, if that's what he desires.

10. Yep.
Did you see the one where Stewie diverted his plane, then later, he shows up at Stewie's house, but then Stewie shoots him with a crossbow?

:rofl:

12. I was glad he ate her, too.
Don't think I ever saw him in anything else, but he was a great Emperor Commode.

13. Figures. An actor with actual talent is giving it up, yet so many untalented ass clowns remain.
He was Oscar-worthy in both "Walk the Line" and "Gladiator."

I only wish I was making that up.

18. I like him too.
I am gay, but I think he is a very cute. Is that a gay crush? or a straight one? I am so confused.

21. Once he learnt guitar ....
Edited on Thu Oct-30-08 04:24 PM by Sequoia
Learnt !!???? That's not a word!!

He is one of the handsome lads of Hollywood (along with the hot and sizzling new James Bond dude) I liked him way better than Russel Crow in "Gladiator". I thought he stole the show. He did a superb job playing Johnny Cash too.

Guess we'll be stuck with same ole same ole actors like Tom Cruise and Nicholas Cage who both can't act worth a hoot.

22. Saying he's giving up acting guarantees column inches.
Edited on Thu Oct-30-08 07:10 PM by Orsino
Merely not acting for a year or two while he records and tours wouldn't.
