I didn't catch what Sean Penn said last night, but I'll assume it was douchey. Anyone know what he was talking about?

He seemed drunk or stoned, not sure if he actually was. He also seemed to be rambling and I wasn't paying close enough attention to what he was saying but it seemed like he took a shot at the award for Best Actress. I of course could and probably am wrong.

Probably both, lucky bastard. That's what I thought he was talking about, just didn't really understand all of his babbling.
 
Sean Penn does more good for this world than 99.9% of it's politicians. Yeah what an asshole, doing everything in his power to help poor parts of this world and places where disasters hit like Katrina or Haiti. Yeah, what a douchebag clearly. :rolleyes:
 
Good actor, definitely. Douche? Eh maybe. Don't really care seeing that I'm not judging a gentleman of the fucking year contest.
 
The man literally spends all of his free time trying to help people in need. And not like most celebrities where they just send a check and go about their business, no, he's out there helping these people with his own two hands and raising awareness to serious problems in this world.

Sounds like anything but a douchebag to me.

Should INDYjon die of rectal cancer?

I kid. I love Penn.

Because someone does humanitarian work, that automatically disqualifies them from being a douche? I'm not disagreeing with you about the good things he does, it's true that he's far more active than a lot of celebrities. I couldn't understand how his shit attitude towards a lot of things is completely nullified by those things. You can do good things for people and still act like a dick.

AbsoLUTELy you can
 
Why is Penn a douche? No one has given me an answer to this question yet.
 
Then you clearly don't know very much about Sean Penn.

Just read his wikipedia page. Either it needs to be added to, or you are exaggerating. A lot of celebrities do just as much more than him (e.g., Ashley Judd, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Sandra Bullock, Anderson Cooper, Oprah Winfrey, Matt Damon). Sean Penn seems to be a member of the Kanye West/Susan Sarandon/Tim Robbins camp: bitch and moan at protests and make it seem as if they're doing a lot.

Come on TDigs, you think browsing someone's Wiki page is enough to judge them?

I don't remember Kanye West ever wading through polluted Katrina water to go and save stranded families in New Orleans.


Oh, and just to prove I'm really not exagerrating about Penn, he quite literally just saved the lives of two people in Haiti about two weeks ago.

If you're too lazy to read the article, here's the opening sentence:

Penn -- who runs the Jenkins-Penn Haitian Relief Organization -- drove an hour and a half with his daughter Dylan to rescue a woman and child who were trapped in rubble outside Port-au-Prince, possibly from an aftershock.



So yes TDigs, he does in fact do an absolutely staggering amount of humanitarian work. And unlike most celebrity, he helps with his own two hands and doesn't just send a check and sit back in his recliner in his mansion. No, he's in Haiti literally digging through rubble to save innocent people.

If you're too lazy to read the article, here's the opening sentence:

Wait, aren't you the one that cited nothing more than Wikipedia in listing JFK's accomplishments? Why shouldn't it be the be-all end-all of sources on the Internet then?

Whoa, whoa, WHOA. Money is much more important than one person going out to help people in war- or disaster-torn countries. I commend Penn for going out to New Orleans and Haiti to help and save people, but this in no way, shape, or form makes him more virtuous than those who donate a boat load of cash. You may see just signing a check as being lazy, but I look at the consequences of that check (namely, food, clothes, various supplies, and wages for people/companies who help to rebuild these areas).

Thank you for informing of the things Penn does for those in need. But, he is still no more of a Mother Theresa than a lot of other celebrities.
 
Why is Penn a douche? No one has given me an answer to this question yet.

He acts like a dick sometimes. Is that even debatable? I like Penn, I really do. And yes he does a lot more than other people. It's not like he hasn't been a douche before. Sure the paparrazi are garbage, but to fucking hit people because they're doing something you don't like? It's childish. You can say that they were invading his personal space, but so does the fucking government. Would you go fight somebody from the IRS? I understand where he was coming from, but to lash out like a child is a dick move.

Other than that, I don't give a shit. I don't even care about him fucking hitting paps, but it is a douche thing to do. That's the point we were making.

But didn't the paparazzi like invade hi hotel room and hide in his room while sleeping? Like, I don't know about you man, but I'd sure as fuck attack someone who was doing that. That's beyond illegal/immoral.

That's cool, not acting like I'm an expert on all things Sean Penn, I just know that he's a great actor and a great humanitarian, I don't play the slightest attention to the tabloids so I have no clue if he's a dick in real life or not.

I just wasn't liking everyone beating up on him. From what I know atleast of him, he seems like a good dude.

Shit if that's true then I wouldn't blame him. But there's been multiple times when he's attacked photographers coming out of a restaurant and shit. That's a little much. I don't pay attention to tabloids, but those are pretty well known incidents. He seems cool enough, I'd hang.
