Our Hero Wahlberg: He refuses to bow to the Pitts-burg

admin | The audience | Wednesday, 02 July 2008

This tidbit comes  from intouchonline.com. Astoundingly there IS someone in Hollywood
who will not milk the Pitt, Clooney connection, just so he can appear “cool”. This actor, Mark Wahlberg, is a man who is happy and confident enough to stand on his own and make it in Hollywood. Yes, he admits, not every movie he makes is a slam dunk. But he feels that WHATEVER happens , he’ll do it on his own without standing next to Pitt or Clooney for support. He goes on to say that the “Ocean’s Eleven franchise is overrated.
Originally, Wahlberg was offered the part of Matt Damon’s character, Linus Caldwell, but he declined it. It went to Damon, but Wahlberg doesn’t regret it ,  ” I had to step out on my own. I made two bad movies instead- ‘Planet of the Apes’ and ‘The Truth About Charlie’- but doing that was better than sitting with Brad Pitt and George, telling the press how great everybody is! That’s not for me. ” Also Wahlberg  has stated that the second Ocean’s Eleven- Twelve? “sucked!”

I’ve watched some of the Ocean’s Eleven movie and bits of the sequels, and was BORED
TO TEARS!   It made me want to ” prank call”   my parent’s  satellite company- (I don’t watch t.v. in the daytime- except in the morning, or at my parent’s). But watching Pitt do what he does best- acting as himself - you know the  main reason they keep Pitt in,
is because he’s the “look” of the Ocean’s movies. It couldn’t  be Oceans whatever,
without him. So- that’s one thing you can say about  the ” Bradster”.  He’s a  posterboy
supreme.

Au Revoir!
