When people speak of Hollywood they never refer to it as a place but more as a experience or state of mind. To me Hollywood is not a place, it’s more of a giant lab where social experiments are conducted. The participants are the actors and the researchers are the people who buy gossip magazines and watch reality T.V.

What happened’s when you throw in two young friends and give them a ton of money?
That question has been answered over and over but the most interesting response is Matt Damon and Ben Affleck. Damon and Affleck collectively won an Oscar and started in a movie that put them in a position of being stars. Damon went the responsible route and picked his movies carefully and found success both critically and commercially. Affleck on the other hand went into fuck it mode and decided he wanted a bigger paycheck and more booze and women than he could handle. For awhile Affleck was known more for his Las Vegas booze induced comas than for his high strung big budgeted movies in where he shoots the bad guy and saves the world.

Fuck it mode or sensible decisions? What’s better? Which would you choose? Personally I would choose fuck it mode. I mean look at this video. The guy looks like he is having fun groping and fondling this T.V. reporter on national T.V. Sure its Canadian T.V. but it still sort of counts.

The guy looks like he is having a great time. He has millions in the bank, has screwed more woman than my entire High School class combined and has been to rehab twice. Sounds like more fun than I am having.

In Affleck’s latest movie Hollywoodland he co-stars with an Oscar winner instead of a giant explosion. This is Affleck’s supposed come back role. Come back from what? He never went anywhere, he has always been here its just that no one went to go see his movies.
