When will Sean Penn make another good movie like Fast Times at Ridgemont High?

[Orrex]

Enough of his phoned-in performances like Milk and The Assassination of Richard Nixon. Let's see him in a good film again, for once.

[ReliantJ]

1. Never!

[flvegan]

2. Aloha, Mr Hand.

[jobycom]

9. Doesn't that movie just cry out for a sequel? "Slow Times at Ridgemont Paper, Inc,"

where Spicolli is a wisecracking alcoholic janitor, Phoebe Cates is his cheating wife, Jennifer Jason Leigh is the plant's owner... Each is dealing with midlife crises, workplace violence, substance abuse, STDs, etc?

[flvegan]

13. In the sequel, Alyssa Milano climbs out of the pool.

[jobycom]

14. That would answer SO many question left hanging in the first one.

Questions about the meaning of life, the futility of existence, the unbearable lightness of... of... something...

[jobycom]

3. He had a guest appearance in Spike Lee's "When the Levees Broke."

[Deep13]

4. Sorry, he's a "serious actor" now.

:-(

[flvegan]

8. He did that episode of "Two and a Half Men"

that was pretty damn funny. He and Elvis Costello were a riot.

[Orrex]

23. He was a blast when he 'came out' on Ellen

The sitcom, not the daytime talk show.

[Bake]

5. He'd better do something good SOON

His career is really tanking. All downhill since Fast Times ...

Bake

[Orrex]

20. Yeah. He's totally coasting.

The slacker.

[Shell Beau]

6. That was a one time kinda role. It is hard to be the

high school stoner at his age.

[Orrex]

7. That's why it's called acting

Any teenster/twenty-something can play a high school stoner. Let's see a guy of 48 pull it off.

[ReliantJ]

10. Like RD Jr. in Less Than Zero.

oh wait he was 22. :banghead:

[Shell Beau]

11. They do have good make-up in Hollywood I suppose.

[meegbear]

12. I feel the same way about Tom Hanks ...

after Joe vs The Volcano, what has he done lately?

[Orrex]

17. Well, when did The Man With One Red Shoe come out?

Of course, that was more of a Jim Belushi vehicle, so...

[GreenTea]

15. I"ll bet you love action films too.

[Orrex]

18. Only if they have lots of explosions

[Sequoia]

16. He was good in "The Falcon and the Snowman"

[Orrex]

19. Not nearly as good as in Shanghai Surprise, though

Come on, Sean! Let's see more of those roles!

[Sequoia]

21. Never saw it that I can remember.

The theatre in the town I work in is showing all the Academy Award winning movies except "Milk".

[Orrex]

22. Well, what would you have them do?

Do you want them to risk turning the whole town gay?

[Sequoia]

24. We're all gay here. Happy as a lark kinda gay.

[applegrove]

25. Never seen the movie. I was in high school when it came out and

the last thing I wanted was to be reminded of high school once I graduated.
