Thread: That was an act!!

Hahaha yeah bemorecynical that was exactly what I picked up as well "Slowed vision comprehension" how can you measure that from just watching his appearances!?!? haha Totally agree with what you wrote. And for the record - regarding the Letterman thing - I didn't think he acted like any drug addict I've ever seen - the "not present" thing was there but I didn't see a tick or him going...

It's not safe to assume that everyone here has never been in the presence of someone with substance abuse problems, but aside from that, do you still think he is faking this? Which I still think is something he wouldn't do, having lost his brother to it and having no history of making fun of the troubled--quite the opposite. Or are you saying that he genuinely is an addict, because these ticks can't be faked? I guess it...

After 10 seconds of the show, I was laughing, laughing, laughing. Yes, it was obvious that it was an act from Joaquin (but from Letterman, I had doubts). The problem is that the obivous wasn't obvious for so many. I regret that this interview by one of the most reliable persons about this hasn't been relayed by the same medias that spat on Joaquin...

If you paid a visit to a rehabilitation clinic you'd know what I am talking about. Drug addicts have ticks about them that are very easy to distinguish from non-drug users. Just a fact. "Are you a girl, or are you not?"

I have no idea what he's up to, but I think it's pretty safe to assume that he was not mocking drug addicts.

what i mean by "bigger star" is this: if a bigger star suddenly started doing this stuff, it would be sort of fascinating (if done well). However, Joaquin is already a little odd. He already seemed to be a bit on the fringes. Honestly, he could have an actual, honest-to-god, full on public meltdown tomorrow, and although it would be briefly entertaining, i think most people would just be left trying to remember what movies...

Bemore...You said it all. My feelings, exactly. "a malcontent who knows how to spell"

Probably he doesn't have any problem with his conscience, his decisions ... He assumes the consequences.

Confirmation is always good, but I always knew it was an act. I didn't just suspect it was. To me it was so obvious that he was acting, and I couldn't even believe some people thought he wasn't. Him nearly breaking out into laughter several times on Letterman, the way his entire demeanor changed once the interview was over, Casey following him around with a camera...hell even Letterman's dialogue with Joaquin sounded...

We'll just have to wait and see what transpires. Only he and his collaborators know why; everything else is just speculation.
