Tonight is the event that Hollywood waits for all year. The glitz and the glamour of the Oscars is coming to Los Angeles with the excitement of top fashion and projected award winners. The past few weeks’ two leading males have been very public with their intentions of winning best male actor.
As far as I am concerned all the trash has been pure hype for the fight that every movie go’er is looking forward to: The Wrester’s Mickey Rourke vs Milk’s Sean Penn.
As of late tension has done nothing but grow and get put into the public eye. A recent leaked text message supposedly revealed that Rourke had bashed Penn's performance in the Harvey Milk biopic.
The text message read:
Look Seans a friend of mine. I didn't buy his performance at all. Thought he did an average pretend acting like he was gay besides he's one of the most homophobic people I kno. [sic] Rourke's win last night at the Golden Globe Awards put him one step ahead. He credited director Darren Aronofsky in his acceptance speech, but some viewers raised eyebrows about his conduct. According to the Hollywood Reporter:
Those hoping for some kind of freak show when Mickey Rourke showed up were not disappointed. In between talking about his comeback, Rourke managed to tell one poor lady to "sit down and cool it" when all she wanted to do was give him a better mike (and then later go, "You're not neurotic, are you?"), name off all his dogs -- Loki, Kid Chocolate, Le Negre, "some chick I was hanging out with at the time," some of whose names are engraved on his rings -- swear some and leave the stage by saying, "I got to go."
Naturally, PR reps deny that Rourke knows anything about that text message, and reps say that no Oscar feud exists between the actors. To me it sounds like a load of garbage and is a set up for what Mickey Rourke has been looking for from the WWE. A match at Wrestlemania 25, and like Winners always brings it to you—THIS MATCH WILL BE NO HOLDS BARRED
WHAT I AM ASKING FOR YOU THE READER IS A DEBATE ON WHO YOU THINK WOULD WIN THIS MATCH. THIS IS YOUR TURN TO BRING THE DEBATE TO ME

I think Sean Penn is going to win. He is not only an actor, but also a director. Where has Mickey Rourke been? I hadn't heard his name until I heard about "the wrestler" and even if he played the part perfectly (not sure I didnt see it), why does he deserve such a great award when Sean Penn has played multiple parts extremely well and hasn't been recognized for it?
ReplyDeleteMickey Rourke is a bit crazy, so in a fist fight maybe he would win, but my vote here is for Sean Penn.
First let me say that I appreciate the input, but after watching the Oscars tonight I couldn't disagree more. We agree that Mickey Rourke has not done anything in his career so as of now his opportunity for best male lead actor maybe blown, so his future may have very little to loose. In a fight a crazy pissed off drunk actor who has been trained in wrestling would beat the living crap out of Sean Penn. Plus the fact Penn may come to the fight a little high and it would slow down his reaction times. You have any ideas on a play by play how the fight would go down?
