McBongo gets the AIDS

So you're his publicist?

He's starting to look his age without the added weight/muscle. I know this is PR/Oscar baiting, but I kinda admire the dedication he has to the role. He's vastly improved as an actor over the past two decades he's been in the public eye.

Like, omg... he's sew sewper fahht!!

He could stand to lose a few more pounds, but he's getting there!

He looks 60 years old. Ew.

He looks disgusting, how horrible!

The rumor was that his wife used to dabble in heroin as well as coke. Matt was cool with the coke but then he got into heroin too. His wife got off it when she had the kids but Matt's had a problem. He thinks he's DeNiro. He was back in shape for Magic Mike and now he's playing a skinny AIDS victim. I bet he's having a great time "preparing" for his role. Of course, it's just a rumor.

He is and has NEVER been as handsome or "hot" as HE thinks he is. Those T-rex arms are forgiveable because he had such a hot bubble ass but his face? It's never been all that. He had a brief period of hotness around the time of his first megahit where he was billed as the star, around 1998 (A Time to Kill) and when he had that Vanity Fair cover. His cologne ads are hilarious. I see them and think he is all making the Blue Steel face and he AIN'T THAT HANDSOME!

He can pull this all he wants but no way is the academy ever going to give this guy an Oscar.

You bitches are just jealous because we're skinny and fabulous, and you're not!

He has two great performances this year with "Magic Mike" & "Killer Joe". He will be nominated for Best Supporting Actor for "Magic Mike".

Jesus r10. I knew I shouldn't have clicked.

Here he is totally cleaned up for The Wedding Planner, a truly awful movie, but he looked good.

Colin Farrell did it for TRIAGE (great movie BTW) He said he only ate tuna and diet coke. I like the diet coke part

Is he gay? No, so he can't possibly have this. I am sick of you homos trying to make this a normal person's disease.

Funny reading these old threads. Something weird going on with him though. He looked bad at the Golden Globes like he'd been on a 3 day bender, then he looked great at the SAGs, then he looked like shit again at a cancer benefit.

He's messing up his body trying to lose weight again for a role, he's as insane as Christian Bale.

R16, the homo AIDS troll has oozed out of the slime at R 15. I'm in the beta site and I blocked that bigoted freeper cunt fuck. You should too.

He is using the excuse of acting roles to erase his masculinity through anorexia.

You are seeing this more now, grown men starving themselves to look rail-thin, and even accentuating their frailty with skin-tight clothes.

Men don't want to be men anymore, I guess it's too hard.

Straight men want domineering women who bring home the bacon and are aggressive and mean. Straight men don't want to have to work too hard or get dirty, and they are trying to defeat their own masculinity in order to become more invisible.

Many straight men are actually giving up on life altogether and refuse to work or date women, just existing as another invisible man.

I think it's cowardly.

Interesting point, R19.

R7, bitch please..

This thread is 2 years old...

Yesterday Deadline announced he is starring in Gold a movie about a notorious mining scandal in the 90s AND in Born to Run, the film of the McDougall book about the long distance runners in Copper Canyon in Mexico.

And he's supposed to start The Free State of Jones where he plays Newton Knight a real life character, a Southern soldier who started a rebellion against the Confederacy during the Civil War and married a former slave. That's why he has the disgusting looking beard and no, I don't mean the wife.

How the hell can he film all these one right after the other? He's running himself into the ground. I read on an industry site that he is the most sought after actor in Hollywood now, all the other A listers only get scripts with his fingerprints all over them.

Hollywood is so fickle, fucked up and superficial. This guy was a stoner rom-com second- tier has been only a few years ago. Now he is Sir fucking John Gielgud? How did THAT happen? I mean, taking nothing away from his few good performances in recent years but there are SOO many more talented performers out there who will never get a chance because douchenozzles like this one just happened to have stuck it out in the industry (like George Clooney) for a bazillion years until the brass ring went around so many times they finally were able to grab it. .With their tiny T-Rex hands, that is. Hey, more power to him but I am really sick of him. He seems so self-important and "serious" now that he is, apparently, the male Meryl Streep. Just a few years ago he was a dirty, smelly, scruffy, beach bum doing yoga half naked and surfing self-consciously for photo ops.

R24, you forget he was also gorgeous. I don't think he's anorexic but I wonder if he has issues with his looks, as in he prefers to look like shit. Look at the Dazed & Confused audition tape that went viral. That kid was irresistible. You can't tell me he wasn't getting constantly sexually harassed by every woman and man he met. Maybe he decided he didn't want to be objectified anymore, he'd rather do something interesting than just be a piece of meat. More power to him.

Watch him in Killer Joe and True Detective and tell me he isn't the most interesting actor working today.

Tha AIDS???

OP, do you seriously think that someone with access to current state of the art health care - like MM, obviously - is, if they contracted hiv, going to look like your idea of what an hiv patient looked 30 years ago?

Educate yourself.

He got the Magic Johnson cure....

Well he can't be too sick. I looked up Born to Run. He's playing Caballo Blanco the long distance barefoot runner. He was a crazy hippie from Boulder who ended up moving to Mexico to live in the Copper Canyons with the Tuparmara (sp?) Indians. So he'll have to be in pretty good physical condition to play the role.

He shouldn't have won the Oscar for that. Leto definitely, but not him.

Did no one notice this is a nearly three year old thread? It was bumped by the drunken troll who's been bumping all sorts of dead threads the last couple of days, in between his drunken rants about us "homos."

R15 and others- this thread is from 3 years ago when he was preparing for Dallas Buyers Club. Sheesh.

That article is six fucking years old. Give it a rest.

Stop bumping OLD threads....

Next role: Skeletor

Let's not forget that Charlie Sheen said that there are other big names in Hollywood who have HIV.

Waaaahhh! Don't bump threads!

Waaaaahhhh! Do a search before you post!

Waaaahh! Don't bump threads!

Waaahh! Do a search....

Where is R33, who bumped the thread in the first place?

Who?

When?
