Is there anyone more typecast? He started out in Dazed and Confused, did some respectable movies, like U-571, and then just started doing the "Man Who Won't Commit Who Falls in Love" move of the month drivel.

I think he jumped the shark with Reign of Fire.

But Texas loves him. He has a box at UT's stadium, and the fans go ape-shite when they put his drunk arse up on the screen.

They must love his arse down in Texas, He was on an episode of King of the Hill. I could recognize that voice of his from anywhere.

Gotta love him in King of the Hill as Rad Thibodeaux ("pronounced Tibba DayUx")

Wrong.

"That's the thing I love about HS girls. You get older and they stay the same age."

"You gotta do what Randy "Pink" Floyd wants to do."

""...I'm gonna blow your doors off!"

I can do this all day. That movie made me wish I was born 17 years earlier.

Be prepared to be educated on how successful Happy Days was after that episode...




But the dude gets paid, and that is probably all he cares about.

You know what he's typecast as......a rich guy.

Exactly. He just shows up, doesn't have to think, smokes a lot of herb, and makes out with whichever hottie he's opposite. And oh yeah, like every three years he's People's sexiest man. Tough life.

For most on the OT it must be like looking into a mirror...

For some reason people think you are only credible as an actor if you do serious dramas
