Vin Diesel is the MAN!

[skywhr]

For many reasons, he owns his own movie studio.
He is awesome in every movie hes in and even though that piece of trash Fast & Furious sucks donkey ****s he carried it and made it some what tolerable.

Pitch Black was cool
Boiler Room was great
Saving Private Ryan awesome movie
Iron Giant awesome also

Actor, producer, writer, and director Vin Diesel had a charmed entry into the world of screen acting: after seeing Multi-Facial, a short
that Diesel wrote, produced, financed, directed, and starred in, Steven Spielberg created the role of Private Caparzo specifically for the
talented young newcomer in his Saving Private Ryan (1998)

Are any of you fans?

 

[Carbo]

No.

 

[skywhr]

That was so helpful, why?

 

[ChrichtonsGirl]

I think he's sort of scary looking and he seems pretty egotistical. Sorry, but I can't get past that when I see him in movies.

Yeah, sorry, but I'm shallow.

 

[Modeps]

i agree, he is one of the coolest actors around right now.

 

[Shmorq]

He's my new favorite actor too. I haven't seen his new movie, but I liked him in Pitch Black.

Also, is his birth name Vin Diesel? Just curious since it seems like too perfect a name for this guy...

 

[ChrichtonsGirl]

His real name is something like Mark Vincent or something quite generic.

<< His real name is something like Mark Vincent or something quite generic. >>

Oh... so he cut short his last namd and added Diesel. If I did such a thing, people would call me retarded. But when he does it, it's pretty cool.

Shmorq Diesel does have a certain flair to it, though...

I'm just saying that if I did it, people would laugh at me... Maybe due to my non-diesel looks. If anyone deserves such a name, it's Vin Diesel.

 

[ChrichtonsGirl]

LOL - sort of like Portia de Rossi (from Ally McBeal). Her real name is Mandy Richards, or something like that. Doesn't have the same cachet, does it?

me likes that guy from Fight CLub and american history X. ^_^ good actor.

 

[Carbo]

Here we have another example of the dumbing down of our society. Raves and worship to a celluloid fantasy figure due to his cool name, and his physical virtues. You want to know a really cool guy worthy of your adoration? For many of you, look at your dad. And, please, I know some dad's are deadbeats. I'm speaking in general terms. My point being worship, adore,idolize someone a bit more, shall we say, real, rather than some Hollywood pinup of the month.
Rant over..........

 

[kami]

Pitch Black was awesome. Cheesy, predictable sci-fi at its best!

 

[skywhr]

Ed Norton is great too
Vin Diesel is a good actor and does alot in the business...
I never said he has a cool name or he looks good I could give 2 s***s what he looks like or what his name is.

<< me likes that guy from Fight CLub and american history X. ^_^ good actor. >>

I believe his name is Ed Norton.

 

[dcdomain]

Edward Norton is the man, he looked so freaking differentin those two movie. American History X, he was jacked as hell, then transformed into an office guy for Fight Club. Kick butt...

Vin Diesal's my current favorite actor too, ever since I saw Pitch Black. Anyway, his real last name is Vincent like others mentioned. Before he made it into acting, he worked as a bouncer at a few night clubs in NYC, and earned the name Vin Diesal.

 

[StageLeft]

I agree that he kicks butt. He is one of the coolest actors now. In Pitch Black that was the first time I saw him (didn't really notice him in saving ryan's privates) and I knew he had a good future cause he was cool - then in Boiler Room he was awesome. He was cool in F&amp;F as well. If I was gay I'd want to make love to him.

 

[jaybert]

<< (didn't really notice him in saving ryan's privates) >>



uhmm...thats prolly cause you were watching a porno and not steven spielberg's movie

 

[Shmorq]

Very funny...

Also, just because he's a favorite actor for many people, doesn't mean we worship him.

There are no words to describe how stupid that is...

An even better example of dumbing down. Skywhr, you're a male? And your posting about how &quot;cool&quot; another guy is?
You've got issues, my friend, deep, dark, mysterious issues that need tending to. Why is it I see you in a darkened bunker in your parents basement, posters of Vin Diesel and McCauley Culkin on the wall, beef puppet in hand and, well, you know what happens next.........

 

[dieselstation]

carbo. did you not notice the sarcasm in skywhr's post?

 

[Carbo]

dieselstation, yes, of course. It was still dumb.
