Faux ran a very inaccurate story on James Woods. They called him an actor

[joeybee12]

No talent homophobic shitgibbon is the correct term.

He's apparently thinking of retiring. From what??? Jackass hasn't worked in years. I hope Family Guy has dumped him

[Docreed2003]

1. His RI background is the only reason hes been featured on Family Guy

And yes, Woods is a gigantic ass. He doesn’t just play one on TV, it is who he is!

[joeybee12]

2. He wants to spend more time dating 20 year olds

Wish I could post a link from my phone. He apparently slammed a movie between a 17 year old guy and 22 year old, so all the underage actresses he's hit on called him on his hypocrisy

[Docreed2003]

6. Ive mentioned here before, but Ive had the great displeasure of meeting Woods

At a charity dinner in RI.

That guy is a turd....his twitter persona is who he is. He’s not just a celeb with an overinflated sense of his self....he’s a dick, and I’m shocked he’s still able to get work!

[joeybee12]

10. Ugh

Meeting him must cause nightmares!

[oberliner]

3. Have you seen Salvador?

That was a great movie and he was great in it.

[joeybee12]

4. Was that what's his name who did Platoon?

His name escapes me. I'm not a fan

[oberliner]

5. Oliver Stone

My view is that his films are hit and miss. Salvador is a good one, in my opinion.

[joeybee12]

9. Mainly miss for quote some time now. Imo

[oberliner]

11. Agreed

But Salvador was one of his earliest ones - and worth checking out.

[Docreed2003]

7. Hes a good actor but a dick in real life...

Not just a typical Hollywood diva, his Twitter personality is his real life self.

[oberliner]

8. No argument here

I was only disputing the OP calling him a no-talent actor. I agree with your assessment.

[Docreed2003]

13. Oh hes a great actor...his portrayal of Roy Cohn is spot on...

It’s just his real life persona that sucks...just my opinion

[WinkyDink]

12. Woods is a fine actor. He was GREAT in "Ghosts of Mississippi," with Alec Baldwin.

[Miles Archer]

14. I find his behavior to be abhorrent. I enjoy some of his work.

I watched "Casino" yesterday for what had to be the 100th time.

I have no complaints about his performance as Lester Diamond, Sharon Stone's scum-of-the-earth boyfriend.

Still think John Carpenter's "Vampires" is a masterpiece.

I've been a fan of Sammy Hagar and Alice Cooper for the duration of their careers. Both Republicans (although I do not believe either falls into the "teabagger" category).

There's no question that, in real life, Woods is far from "admirable."

I just can't dismiss his entire career as a result of that.

As far as "hasn't worked in years," he was on Showtime's "Dice" with Andrew Dice Clay two weeks ago, and he's going to be on tonight's episode as well. Yes, Clay built a career on racism, homophobia, and misogyny. The "Dice" show was popular enough to be in its second season. That doesn't wipe the slate clean for anything Clay has said now, or in the past.

It's everyone's personal choice to separate the "artist" from the "art." Woods is an actor. Outside of that, there's not a lot for him to be proud of.

[MurrayDelph]

15. Not surprising

I declared myself retired when I couldn't get another job in my field, too.

[Orrex]

17. LOL. Excellent.

[Orrex]

16. Please don't suggest that James Woods is a cocaine addict

James Woods hates when people call him a coke addict. In fact, James Woods has sued people who've accused him of being addicted to cocaine.

Yes, even though James Woods has a history of putting the moves on women 40+ years his junior, don't ever tell anyone that James Woods is a coke addict.

It would be slanderously cruel and irresponsible to suggest that James Woods is a coke addict, so even if you want someone to accuse James Woods of being hooked on cocaine, you won't find me claiming that James Woods is a cokehead.

[mreilly]

18. "James Woods (I) (Actor, Once Upon a Time in America (1984))"

Look this dickhead up on IMDB.com and the above is what comes up. Yeah, he must be hard-working to be known best for his role in a movie 33 years ago.

Last thing I saw him in was "Scary Movie 2" back in 2001 - a high quality film involving projectile vomiting, clown rape and talking about farting in someone's mouth.

Remind me why we should care about this nobody or anything he does or says?

[UTUSN]

19. He was excellent as Roy COHN - trouble is, he wasn't acting.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

20. He was excellent as Lester Diamond - trouble is, he wasn't acting.

FIXED

[crazycatlady]

21. Isn't he the dude who's name is on the high school in Family Guy?
