    I never liked him much, and that’s not a “I knew he was out there raping”, that I didn’t know. But personality-wise he was basically an egocentric rockstar who thought he knew it all and everyone not agreeing with his views and sense of humour were just too stupid.

    And turns out, he is behaving even more like a 80s rockstar than I thought.

      Perfectly cast in Get Him to the Greek, but at the time I thought it was acting, not just rolling out of bed.

        Yeah I always thought he was hilarious because he was doing a shtick but as it turns out, that’s just him.

          Yeah, it’s also why his movie career (at least as a comic lead) started in 2008 and was dead by the middle of 2011. He’s got no range and audiences were only willing to pay to see Russell Brand being “Russell Brand in a different outfit” so many times before he wore out his welcome.
