George Clooney completely fell off as a movie star

In the 2000’s he was that guy, now he’s reduced to directing no1curr movies for streaming platforms. His filmography in the last decade is also underwhelming to say the least.

He won an Oscar. He’s making a fortune off of his tequila brand. He’s doing just fine. No need to worry about him.

I guess when you make half a billion dollars selling your tequila company, trying to be an aging movie star doesn't seem all that important to some people.

Also, these days, unless an actor wants to play a superhero from comic books, there is no real way to become or remain a "movie star." Movies are garbage meant to sell toys and video games to kids. There are no real adult audiences for movies. There are no more real movie starts.

Clooney was hailed by many as the next Cary Grant but Grant starred in several beloved and timeless movies. Can you say the same for Clooney?

“Fell off…”

Interesting choice of words…

R1 Nobody talks about Syriana today. But that’s not his fault, actors rarely win Oscars for their best performances.

[quote] He got bored with it.

Apparently so did the audiences. His movies were flopping.

What I mostly remember about Clooney's movie career is how many flops he has had. He can be charming in the right roles (Out of Sight, Ocean's 11) but his movie career is very inconsistent.

R11 Brad Pitt has a much better filmography than him.

The last movie I remember liking of Clooney’s was Up in the Air.

Too craggy. Pretty boys hold up better - Cruise, Depp, Cavill, Pitt, Bomer, Manganiello....

I’ve already spoken about this.

Clooney was a Hollywood star through connections and PR. Through Steven Soderbergh and Brad Pitt. He was not a movie star, he was the product of PR and being among the “Hollywood elite”.

He was of the Oprah era where actors were treated like Jesus and her audience would scream over them and they’d be snooty and act like big shit.

That era is long gone.

He’s constantly bombing. Most of the things he does have been failures.

But even at his career high, George Clooney was a boring and charmless movie star, he is better off behind the camera.

R15 the Oprah era was likely the best era to be a movie star!

R17 Yes you could get praised for being a total cunt!

This is the greatest example of the Oprah era to me.

Clooney would be better off in perv jail.

He's gayer than Elton John's fannypack.

He was never a good actor, but a great marketable personality. The failures of Tomorrowland and Monument Men hurt him, I think.

I always found him very sexless, I just can't imagine him giving you a great night of passion as he'd be far more interested in himself.

[QUOTE] He was of the Oprah era where actors were treated like Jesus and her audience would scream over them and they’d be snooty and act like big shit.

LOL

when was his filmography overwhelming OP? What would a George Clooney film festival consist of?

It's entirely probable that he's tired of the rigmarole & stress involved with staying on top. He's made (and continue to makes) more money than he could spend in 10 lifetimes. Maybe he's now very happy to pull back and love a life with a lot less stress.

R4 You're right. We had a topic about this a while back.

O, those Oprah years. They were my salad days, alas...

R18 Thanks. What year is that Roberts clip from?

Movie Stars we're it, back in the 80s 90s and 00s. Oprah definitely knew when to hang up the talk show gig and move on. Even she herself said, she saw the internet taking over and the rise of the influencer culture coming and it was time to move on.

I miss that Oprah era. Those we're my elementary middle & high school years. We live in a shit society now. I want the Movie Star to come back. We didn't have as many distractions back then. Things were a lot more simpler then. 😪

His net worth was estimated at $500M before he sold his interest in the vodka company, it seems a bit of a stretch to say his circumstances are reduced.

With that much money and a famous name, he can lead a very nice life without worrying about what OP or the test of us think of him, or the trajectory his Hollywood star has taken.

I never got the attraction and am not defending him except to say if I had that money, I wouldn't fucking bother with keeping my career arc on the ascent or even a maintenance course.

Whenever I see the Casamigos truck with the picture of him and big gay Rande I roll my eyes

Carey Grant's career was in the 30s 40s 50s & early 60s. He had his career and then became a father and then kinda just lived his life. I guess he just wanted to be done with film making.

I'm glad people like Bette Davis and Joan Crawford continued. I love films with older stars in them. Grant could've continued on making films if he wanted to in sure.

Not so completely fallen off since some fattard on DL still started a thread about him.

He never really seemed to be that into it. Made a few movies for the money so that he could live the lifestyle he wanted. I think he's quietly involved in philanthropy and he's making a documentary about Gym Jordan's wrestling years as an assistant coach.

He has a beautiful villa in Italy and lives a peaceful, quiet and luxurious life. I've never been a fan of his, but good for him. He knew when to hang it up instead of becoming a desperate, aging movie star.

Never liked him. I think a tragic ending is in the cards for old Georgie.

I wouldn’t she’d any tears if that happened r35.

R11 with only a minute of screentime, Jorge nearly shat up Malick’s sublime THE THIN RED LINE. And for that I shall never forgive him.

I don’t think Tomorrowland was that bad of a movie and his performance in the film was fine. Most of the failure of that film was in its marketing. Disney often does a poor job in that department; see the film John Carter., also a Disney dud. Both John Carter and Tomorrowland were supposed to be huge franchises but fell flat because of poor studio commitment.

The Oprah era of stars makes me think of that abominable Brokeback ‘forum’ Q&A. Pretentious and yet bottom-of-the-barrel.

Glad that’s over.

[Quote] now he’s reduced to directing no1curr movies for streaming platforms.

Reduced!? He's smart. Good move.

I now know what no1curr means. I am diminished by this knowledge.

Some like directing better. Clint Eastwood did both as did Ida Lupino, who decided she preferred directing. Directors typically have more control. He has enough money to take on projects that he likes and this Jim Jordan documentary should be fascinating. Being a movie star is a means to an end for some and he appears to be one of them. He's living a lot more interesting life than he was in LA in a house with a pig.

He gave a give of $100,000 to each of his friends under their placemats at dinner at his home. For some reason I always found that story kind of cringe.

OMG I stand correct it was 1 million apiece.

Am I crazy to think there's something weird about this? It's very generous of course, but it just doesn't seem like something one does.

[QUOTE] He purchased 14 Tumi suitcases and filled each one with $1 million in cash.

What the...sounds like a drug deal.

And you can't just give huge sums of money to friends like that. IRS imposes a substantial gift tax.

He is making a documentary about Gym Jordan and the abuse of young boys ? Oh that is rich. Takes some balls actually.

He gifted his buddies 1M each because they were the same buddies who told the polizia they didn't hear or see anything that night at the villa. Again, takes some balls to publicly payoff those who gave you an alibi.

His best performance was in Out Of Sight and that’s because he was dogwalked by Jennifer Lopez who he hated.

George Clooney is a phony actor, his aunt was much more entertaining. If he didn't have those eyes and connections, who would cast him?

I’m not impressed with him as a filmmaker. The Catch 22 adaptation a few years ago was so bloodless.

Any insights about those 1 million dollar cash gifts? Was that really some kind of hush money for past indiscretions but he though he could make himself look good at the same time by leaking it to the press?

Is Clooney a pothead like Pitt, et al?

I’m a bigger movie star than he is!

I have more money and a better life than George Clooney does!

It's a sad state when so many DL threads are about some more than well known celebrity failing to be a bigger celebrity.

Sure there are the celebrities whom the media and PR engines have poised to be the greatest next thing ever; or ones can't can't be bothered to even half conceal their enormous ambition to climb a run or 9 higher; or those who simply can't stand being ignored.

But to compare box office figures and salaries and number of IG followers of Google search matches as of Tuesday afternoon?, Who really cares if the Marvel franchise makes his net worth seem paltry, or some new name has more projects in the works? Is the measure of success to never sleep and plot a star trajectory that Nevers tips downward at the least inclination?

He's rich enough to pick his projects now, and occasionally a big payroll. Any actor it seems to me would envy some if that ability of choice - to say "I'll take that job" or "no, thank you, but this one isn't for me.,"

He's a very lucky man given his thin range of talent and the general good will he enjoys, I wouldn't fuck that up with taking a lot of jobs I didn't want and spending 12 hours away building muscles.

[quote] He's rich enough to pick his projects now, and occasionally a big payroll. Any actor it seems to me would envy some if that ability of choice - to say "I'll take that job" or "no, thank you, but this one isn't for me.,"

No successful actor wants their movies to flop and their star power to fade,

I will always love the hilarious "Hail, Caesar"! He was well cast in that.

What r47 said. They hypocrisy of Clooney is supernatural.

He's working on a new film, actually. It's a spin off of "Million Dollar Baby" entitled Million Dollar Suitcase.

He doesn't need to act. He makes 30-40M off of child slave labor picking Nespresso coffee beans. Then he gets up on his soapbox and preaches about "justice and human rights" and the media never calls him out on his hypocrisy.

He too could walk down Fifth Avenue and shoot someone and there would be no consequences. Just like there were no consequences for maiming a gay teen . People just continue raving about what a great guy he is. Another teflon sociopath that nothing sticks to.

He knows how to make good money but his "acting" is weak weak weak and his movies are bad. He also seems humorless and mean.

Overall a rather bland personality. Good looks, smarts, and polished style, but nothing special that catapults him into the orbit of untouchable star quality.

[quote]And you can't just give huge sums of money to friends like that. IRS imposes a substantial gift tax.

Yes, and the giver of the gift pays the gift tax.

Someone asked what a George Clooney film festival would show--I'll program it.

THREE KINGS (dir: David O. Russell) OUT OF SIGHT (dir: Steven Soderbergh) O BROTHER WHERE ART THOUGH (dir: The Coen Bros) UP IN THE AIR (dir: Jason Reitman) MICHAEL CLAYTON (dir: Tony Gilroy) SYRIANA (dir: Stephen Gaghan) THE DESCENDANTS (dir: Alexander Payne) OCEANS 11 (dir: Soderbergh) GOODNIGHT AND GOODLUCK (dir: Clooney)

Then if you wanted some wild cards:

From Dusk Till Dawn Argo (he produced and it won Best Picture) Solaris The Perfect Storm Intolerable Cruelty

The SONY leaks about the failure of Monuments Men were telling.

Michael Clayton was great but he was the least interesting part of it.

r65 what did the leaks say about monuments men

He is okay but not great. He and Julia, Sandra and Tom Cruise have no classic films.

He married Amal because of all the trouble he got in with boys.

I'm not playing into anyone's batshit claims about Italian criminal negligence...

... But if I were covering up a heinous international crime...

... Wouldn't marrying a well connected international defense attorney for the likes of some of the worst dictators help quiet anyone thinking they might press charges?

... I have extra tinfoil if anyone needs a hat.

I can’t name one of his movies besides the oceans franchise. He always got more publicity than his talent or movie success deserved

[quote]George Clooney completely fell off as a movie star

Are implying that this is a bad thing OP?

R64 Too few significant or interesting films to fill an entire festival program. Mostly ho hum!

He just did another movie with Julia.

Sometimes people like to retire and relax. Why work to the bitter end when you have so much money?

[quote] Sometimes people like to retire and relax. Why work to the bitter end when you have so much money?

And sometimes extraordinarily wealthy actor’s financial success surpasses the success of their flop movie careers and their attempts to achieve success behind the camera.

And it helps to be extraordinarily wealthy when you have to pay people off to cover your tracks for all of the lives that you’ve damaged and destroyed.

He seemed like a smug bastard in everything he ever did and he was never even that good looking.

I think his best role was Michael Clayton and I liked the Descendants, even though the movie is now ruined by the sight of smelly, weird Shailene Woodley. He's aged out of leading man roles (I doubt he's interested in playing anyone's grandpa or the crusty old fart next door), but hasn't really found his footing as a director either.

I saw some footage recently of Clooney & Amal hanging all over each other & kissing on some red carpet and while I don't really care about his personal life, those sort of overly demonstrative displays of affection just scream #FAKE, particularly for an older that's been married for several years.

The entire industry has changed. The only big stars today are in superhero movies, or action films(The Rock, Ryan Reynolds). The last true movie star is Leo DiCaprio and he'll never do a Marvel pic.

R16 I thought he was charming in this interview.

He quit to be a hands-on parent to his twins.

R71 no it was a play on words. Remember the gay boy he almost killed ? The kid fell off a cliff.

I always thought he was "in on the joke". Ambitious enough to have a career, talented enough to have some success, but having grown-up around show business, he doesn't have to take it as seriously as some other people. He has plenty of money and probably only has to work if he wants to.

It saddens me that DLers aren't more incensed by what he did to that gay teen.

Would there have been more outrage if it had been a 16-year-old blonde straight girl? The condemnation would have been deafening. But a gay boy? Nope, no one is bothered. The power imbalance between a 52 year old wealthy famous guy and a 16 year old working class waiter is staggering.

The blind is superfluous, his neighbors corroborate the story which is what holds the most weight.

His PR screams "Qanon" which is just their desperate bullshit attempt at deflection. The incident happened in 2013 and Qanon didn't even come into existence until 2016/2017.

There is a DLer who vehemently defends him and attacks anyone who brings it up. That DLer is obviously amoral and spends all his time in his mother's basement jacking off to georgie's tvguide cover from the 90s.

Forgive my ignorance, but what happened with George and some teenage boys?

Why did it force him to rush into marriage with Amal?

Didn't he marry Amal because he was thinking of getting into politics and she'd be a good politician's wife?

R80, aww, those are two charming, pretty, jumped up hillbillies.

They look like they should be in a fistfight in front of their tween grandchildren in a Piggly Wiggly parking lot, rather than black tie.

R84 I’ve heard about the story but I actually know what happened.

His last good movie was Gravity. Before that, Michael Clayton.

He might have an Oscar, but the majority of his films are crap. Meanwhile, the films he directs have zero personality or life to them. Goodnight and Goodluck stands alone as his only notable achievement in the art of film direction.

OP- So did Julia Roberts who today looks like a FUCKIN MONKEY 🐒

Don't worry, OP. DL icon and Hollywood legend, the iconic Julia Roberts is going to revive his movie career as he is starring in a supporting role in her next.

The superstar actress is known for her generosity and for making careers of other actors and actresses. For example, she made Sandra Bullock's and Gwyneth Paltrow's careers. She was also responsible for Denzel Washington's success. Amongst her friends she is known for her huge generosity and magnanimity. Money and fame don't matter to her because she had seen it all. She still commands 25 million paychecks. She's always the biggest star in the room wherever she is. Stars come and go, OP. But not Julia. What makes her such a powerful star ? Well, somethings are inexplicable however obvious they seem. Julia is also set to star in a movie called, "Leave the World Behind" alongside Mahershala Ali and Ethan Hawke and it's sure going to fetch her second Oscar which is long overdue. She was supposed to win an Oscar to her excellent turn in Ben is Back but because of bad politics she lost that one. But this time, there won't be such thing. In fact people in the know say that her role in "Leave the World Behind" is powerful that it'll be tough to imagine any other actress in that role.

[QUOTE] supposed to win an Oscar to her excellent turn in For* her excellent turn.

[quote]Didn't he marry Amal because he was thinking of getting into politics and she'd be a good politician's wife?

He married Amal because that's who his Fixer recruited and hired for him to marry as damage control after the teen ended up paralyzed and needing lifetime care.

Her being a "lawyer" plus her shady arms dealing family certainly did make anyone considering blackmailing him think twice.

You never thought it odd he paraded his wedding through the streets of Venice? The only other a-lister who did that was Tammy Cruise, another one with secrets to hide.

I'm OP. This is my 3rd Clooney bashing thread this week. I post here to influence the stupid faggots of DL to hate outspoken liberal celebrities. All the right wing message boards already hate him, so why not go for the rest? Remember, Looney Clooney is a twink killing secret gay narcissist who is fake married and not sexy and a huge failure and I hate him and you should too! Now excuse me while I start more hate for Lady Gaga, Sean Penn, Alyssa Milano, Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks, Reese Witherspoon and Hollywood in general. Lap it up, DL.

[quote]Forgive my ignorance, but what happened with George and some teenage boys?

Why did it force him to rush into marriage with Amal?

Allegedly:

Party with his buddies at his villa, he is with a16 yr old boy, age of consent in Italy is 14, one of his buddies wants to take a turn, teen says no and takes off running naked into the dark night. He chases after the teen, teen falls off cliff and ends up permanently disabled. After kid is rescued, police come knocking at his door and question all his buddies, buddies say they didn't see or hear anything*. His Crisis Management Team goes into action and pays off kid's family and pays off the authorities and hire him a "wife".

And that folks is the story of how this lucrative bearding gig fell into 'A mal's lap and she became the world's most successful and famous beard of all time!

*Buddies who said they didn't see or hear anything were same buddies who were all coincidentally very publicly gifted 1M each!

Thank you for continuing my Clooney bashing, DL! You are so easy! You're the best!

Let's keep this rolling! I heard the Lonney Clooney eats babies and drinks their blood! It's true! I just posted it right now on DL so that makes it true!

Georgie's PR has arrived @r96 , r98 and r99.

They are trying out a new tactic to shut down the conversation.

Who else would be so invested in defending a billionaire? So transparent.

Yes, YES my pretties! Looney Clooney gave all his molester buddies 1 million dollars because they all molest children, throw them off cliffs and drink their blood! He didn't give his friends money because he's wildly successful, it MUST be because he's a secret gay and child killer! It's all true!

YES YES! I work for George and do his bidding! After all the child killing and money laundering and blood drinking!

Thanks for the details r97. I had heard bits and pieces of it here on DL, but never summarized so succinctly.

I don't understand the big appeal of greasy Clooney.

Yes, thank you R97. How could we ever doubt you since you were obviously there and such a good, accurate "reporter".

Idiot pr troll @r96, r98, r99, r100, r102 is too stupid to realize his/her many posts just bump the thread for more people to read. LOL.

Yes, yes! He is greasy! And he smells bad too!

Bump me, oh god, bump me! Let the Clooney trolling go on and on!

Has there ever been the slightest bit of evidence that the cliff thing happened, or is this just unsubstantiated rumor?

Imagine being upset on George Clooney’s behalf in 2022.

R84, the whole incident was hushed up. That's why there was no outrage. Parents don't want the world to know their son is gay, George has LOTS of money,so...no one knows about it.

Thank you R111, for that factual account you pulled out of your ass.

Since she was brought up, what do we think of Julia playing Martha Mitchell?

[quote]Has there ever been the slightest bit of evidence that the cliff thing happened, or is this just unsubstantiated rumor?

If you are American and able to travel, go sit in a cafe in that area, the locals will tell you all about it. They like to burst Americans bubbles about him. They do contradict what the blind says about the beard being the clean up person. She didn't clean up anything. She was hired after everything was already taken care of. There was also no gift of jewelry as the blind claims, so that's probably just the red herring they throw into every blind to cover their asses.

The blind is very detailed, moreso than most blinds. Obviously someone in the know called in a tip. It is highly unlikely GC's people were able to get everyone in the entire town to sign an NDA. The kid probably told his friends he was going to famous guy's party and his friends probably came looking for him when he never returned to work or school and discovered him in his incapacitated state and decided to make a little cash from the info.

He has given way too much information and minutiae about the relationship from day one which is a tell tale sign of deception.

I personally find Randy's birthday greeting to GC a couple of years ago very telling. He shows a photo of them on the cliff and captions it "have each other's back" and "next time no cliffs". Randy was supposedly the friend who wanted a turn with the kid. Google "George Clooney celebrates turning 58..." and the old DM article with the photo and caption will come up.

Whatever the case, Mr. & Mrs. C. aren't a real couple. I only worked in L.A. in an adjacent industry for a couple of years in the early 2000s and it was no secret then he was into guys.

That makes total sense! I believe every word! Oh great truth teller, tell us more about those nasty liberal celebrities! I heard liberal Julia is a lesbian gay who throws 14 year old lesbians off cliffs in Italy. It's legal there.

I read a blind item about lesbian Julia Roberts, who is a secret lesbian and has lesbian sex with lesbians. She had a party in Italy, right next to Twink Cliff. All the lesbians were there. Jane Lynch, Wanda Sykes, and Jane Lynch. They all were having lesbian sex with a lesbian who was only 14 and she said no so Julia threw her off a cliff! It was all very detailed and documented.

r111

I didn't mean outrage from the public. I meant outrage from DLers.

There are constant mentions of him in DL threads and "The Clooneys" and what a great guy he is and fabulous couple they are. It's nauseating. There is no "The Clooneys", it's fake. He should be shunned here, he harmed a gay teen.

Also I know only too well how those old world Italians are. I hope the kid's parents are being kind to him although he's not a kid anymore, would be about 23 or 24 now.

There is no "The Clooneys". He is a gay and she is also a lesbian gay. And they are all gay and throw twinks off cliffs. And now the twink is 74 and should be shunned because he is a gay.

All the Hollywood celebrities are gay.

I wonder if this PR Cleaner Troll gets paid by the word, sentence or paragraph?

This is liberal gay George's gay house on the edge of Twink Cliff. He always throws his secret gay parties for his secret gay friends, who are also gay child molesters. He has the gay sex parties and then throws off the gay twinks. It's well documented and all the villagers talk about it at night and sing songs about it in Italian. In Italy. Liberal and also gay Lady Gaga also got her horrible accent for House of Gucci from the villagers and sings their songs. She is a gay.

"I personally find Randy's birthday greeting to GC a couple of years ago very telling. He shows a photo of them on the cliff and captions it "have each other's back" and "next time no cliffs". Randy was supposedly the friend who wanted a turn with the kid."

Isn't Rande Gerber considered good looking, probably better looking than Clooney? Why wouldn't the kid have a go with him? And why would Clooney get violent about it and chase the kid off a cliff?

Looks like George's PR team is earning its $1 million right here on DataLounge!

[quote]All the lesbians were there. Jane Lynch, Wanda Sykes, and Jane Lynch.

Yep, that's ALL of them.

The accident happened AFTER he gave a million to each of his friends.

Assuming the cash gifts he made were for the reasons he said they were -- why go to the press with it? Because he was afraid someone else at that party would leak the story and he wanted to put his own spin on it. Because the whole thing sounds strange to me. But maybe that's just how they do things in WEHO, throwing around suitcases stuffed with cash.

I imagine Michael Musto is somewhere on this thread. If you are, is this cliff diving story true? I can easily believe that Clooney could be involved in something like this. He's such a smarmy bastard. It could just as easily be a Qanon smear campaign, though.

The accident happened in 2013. Summer.

He gifted his friends the 1M in 2013.

The beard was hired in mid/late 2013 and the wedding circus advertising to world he was suddenly straight was in 2014.

When he tells the fictitious story of "how they met' he emphasizes they met in summer 2013 to cover his tracks, i.e. he couldn't have been with a male during that time, he had a "girlfriend".

This has nothing to do with Qanon. This happened in 2013 and Qanon didn't even come into existence until four years later in 2017.

I once met a very believable guy who told me he dated Clooney in college when C was fairly comfortable with his gay sexuality, and then fame and fortune happened. They met again professionally years later and, awkwardly, nothing about the past was mentioned. I told the entire story here some time ago and I still believe it.

Another forum that has discussed this matter suggests he publicly gifted his friends the 1M as a dog whistle to anyone thinking of going to the tabloids and making a few bucks with the story. His public display was to inform anyone considering ratting him out that he is quite generous to those who are loyal to him.... That theory rather made sense to me when I read it.

Thank you R97 and R114 for perpetuating this anitgay agenda and smashing gay hate right into the faces of gay men and women on a gay site. Gays have been slowly becoming acceptable over the last few decades and you have been instrumental in destroying gay and liberal culture with your helpful lies. Thank you and God Bless.

How much does Cindy Crawford know, I wonder.

The Georgies can try to gaslight us all day, but I believe it. Remember when George said that he’d never get married again? He mentioned that in a couple of interviews. Then all the sudden he marries this skinny heifer who no one has ever heard about. And he paints this appallingly false narrative of how they met and suddenly she’s pregnant. George also used to say that he didn’t want children. He’s a smug, phony asshole. Ever since Princess Diana was killed, he’s been giving off douchebag vibes. There were blinds about him calling the paparazzi to come to take his photos at events…it’s all so much bullshit. It just made him sound good. And remember how badly he wanted to be on SOUTH PARK when it was white hot and Trey and Matt only let him do the voice of the gay dog? And later, they skewered him after his cringeworthy Oscar speech. I loved it. He’s a big phony and he and Gerber are slimy AF. So, no matter how many times the Georgies post their BS about how all the stories about him are false and being spread by right wing trolls, I will never see him as anything other than what he is…a sociopathic ephebophile who throws his money around to hide his lowlife crimes. Fuck you, George Clooney and Rande Gerber. Go back to spit roasting that smelly twink Harry Styles…

I used to know a guy who once said he had proofs about Clooney's dirty secrets. And then he died.

Yeah! He's a gay! I just know it! I feel it in my balls and asshole!

South Park is 100% true! It's a documentary series of cartoons!

How many other boys have they harmed…there has to be a reason why he moved to Italy.

George Clooney is a gay and I'm R132 the dame that can prove it!

They are nothing if not intrepid, Clooney’s troll PR team.

Who the hell wants to move to gorgeous, old world, historic Italy? It can't be for the incredible food, beautiful countryside, amazing art and architecture.

R96 do you have any room in your hate-filled heart for Meager Muckle?

The real story that no one is telling is that George Clooney is not just a gay, he's two gay midgets in a long trench coat!

The troll in here needs to die. FF the asshole, this is some of the best gossip I've heard in years, though it's quite tragic.

Yes, FF the gossip troll 6.^

Doesn’t Italy also have a lower age of consent than America? Asking for a friend….

The cliff diving age is 14.

Well this thread went to shit slowly but surely.

Amazing the large numbers of psychiatrists and famous actors posting on this thread.

He could have just been paying his friends off to keep quiet about everything- girls, boys, drugs, metoo, knowing about Harvey, etc... cliffs be damned.

That must be it. George Clooney, Underworld Mastermind.

And to think I thought he was just guilty of a couple of lousy movies.

Well, that does it. I am never going to see any more of those George Clooney movies that flood my local movie house month after month.

Are you nuts? Julia has no power anymore. She has aged in an unappealing way and her projects are flops.

R132, why the reference to Princess Diana?

R132 is a right wing troll. The Diana reference is from when she was killed while being chased by paparazzi. George made a statement about it, right after it happened, defending her and criticizing the paparazzi. And this fucktard troll doesn't like it. He doesn't like any liberal celebrity having opinions. No other message other than right wing policies can be tolerated for this fucktard troll. He comes here to shit on Hollywood actors because they are perceived as a threat because they have celebrity and notoriety. And he does it on a gay site, to rub it in our faces. Clooney has been hated for decades by these fucks.

I'm still waiting for some confirmation of the cliff incident other than "go there and ask the locals."

Clooney has always been really into his male friend group. At one point, he gave them all custom motorcycles. Maybe he's paying them to keep quiet about any dirt, maybe he just likes being the alpha of the group, maybe he's just really generous. Could be all three.

Nice try r156 r157. George and Rande are sociopathic kiddie diddlers. They abuse teen boys. You can lie all you want to. A lot of us know what they are. It’s a good thing that the boy survived or we could call them murderers too.

If I let them throw me off cliff will I get food?

Aaaaand the psycho R158 returns.

Keep it up r160…we have all day…

"We?" The coven of retards?

George is a sleaze. And so is anyone who covers for him.

Michael Clayton was an excellent film, but that really had more to do with the brilliant performances of Tilda Swinton (who won a well-deserved Best Supporting Actress Oscar) and Tom Wilkinson. They were mesmerizing. Clooney was very good, but they both outshone him.

I'm just going to luxuriate here all day and relax. Italy is so lovely this time of year.

There's a strange scent of desperation coming from Datalounge. You know how it is with the trolls. They always have to throw out nonsense to see what sticks. Like a dog who regurgitates his morning dish, only to eat it again as if it tastes better a second time. Tragic, really. I think I'll go swimming. The sound of waves breaking off the cliff edge is so soothing. Living my best life.

OP has whipped DataLoungers into a frenzy.

Clooney looks like he has dead eyes in the photo at R168. He has a look to him like he has signed a pact with the devil.

Mrs. Garrett always thought he was a nice young man, but Natalie knew the truth.

He's a daddy now, he's enjoying "family" life...

Vorrei godermi la vita familiare, ma sono paralizzato dopo essere stato cacciato da una scogliera.

Bump. Has the teenage boy that fell off the cliff as he ever made any statements?

I will watch his new movie with Julia Roberts when it streams, doesn't come out until October though

Three movies doesn't exactly a movie star make. Hype, yes. Movie star, no.

He was beautiful. So boring, though.

Baby can you dig your man? Oh hell no they changed Larry Underwood. The guy who played him in the 1994 miniseries was cute. Also Nadine has black hair that turns white, WTF is Amber Heard doing in this part?
