Joaquin Phoenix quits acting?

[Mikey]

Oh, he was the Walk the Line guy ?
Ok,
Then I did see him.

BTW, I tried watching that movie a few weeks ago (it was on TV)
I had to turn it off about half way through.
Boring as hell, imo

He seemed ok, I guess
I just thought the movie itself kind of sucked.

I Could Not Care Less

You cared enough to post.

[Hector]

Never heard of him

BTW, he's got a weird name

You are always saying that...but you are too much into pop culture for me to believe that.

You might not be a fan...you might not even remember his name...but you certainly have seen him in movies, Gladiator (as the emperor), Walk the Line (as Johnny Cash), Signs (Mel Gibson's brother), The Village (the lead guy who finally leaves the village), etc...

You know bloody well who he is...you ain't fooling me, buddy.

Everything sucks for you except Dr Who and Irwin Allen.

I just hate it when someone publicly announces an ultimatum like that...kinda self-serving if you ask me.

Why not quietly just stop acting...do your music thing...and if that doesn't work...quietly come back to acting...simple as that.

Dude, that is exactly what I thought when I read the announcement. Just don't make another movie until you want to. It's much cooler and more mysterious. If you're concerned about "buzz", there would be much more of it over the long-haul if you just played it close to the vest. People will talk in the absence of knowing what is going on.

Amen Brother!!

Guy's just looking to get his name in print....probably hoping to get invited on Leno or Letterman to explain his side of things, yada, yada....Good riddance. Lots of struggling actors out there looking for a break!!

Honestly, I never seen Gladiator, Signs or The Village.

Then you are just not a modern movie fan.

Maybe he's just trying to boost his negative post count some more.
