I didn't think it was strange at all. I was thinking the same thing Dominic was. All the previous posters are quoting lines from an actor and calling him great because of certain lines someone gave him to read. They're cool lines. That doesn't make him cool. I've always thought he was a dweeb.

so then how does anyone ever have a favorite actor/actress? without someone to bring life to the script its just words on a paper, there have been great scripts that were clever and witty that have been torn to shreds by crappy actors and then there have been mediocre scripts turned into gold because the cast elevated it. you are making it sound like they are just reading what they wrote and thats it.

Well that was sort of my point. The lines are good when people type them here, but I think he's a dweeb.

"Yeah, and Hilary Swank has a vagina, but she won an Oscar pretending she has a dick. That's what actors do. They pretend."

"All right, when you talk to Dana, tell her I'm going to take the pictures from Cancun, and start a website called imahollywoodproducerwhore.com and there will be no registration or fee required, and I will take out a full page ad in the LA Times promoting it. Give me a [censored] call back."

On a related note Entourage is a great show and more importantly having HBO on demand is wonderful. When they say "its not TV, its HBO" they aren't lying...

I haven't seen Entourage yet, but I have been a fan of Piven's since he played the extra drunk guy in Say Anything. One of my fav lines of his (that hasn't been mentioned yet) is from Grosse Pointe Blank- "I'll see you at the 'if I've peaked, then I am kidding myself' party".

As folks say, it is all in his delivery. Good stuff.

This is just stupid. Anne Sullivan was the miracle worker.

It might be remotely possible that that is what makes this funny.

Entourage 2x01

E is getting no sex because it's that time of the month.

'I'd say hug it out but I don't want you drawing wood.'
'You want me to get Lloyd in here and have him hari-kari you with his pecker?

Excellent.

just say you think he isn't a good actor, that would be a lot easier.
