So as you may have heard, Shia LaBeouf got in a bar fight over the weekend. I read the headline in my Twitter feed on Sunday and immediately said “Well, there’s my comic for Monday!”
Yeah, yeah. I know it’s Tuesday. Sorry about that. I had the comic drawn and inked Sunady night, but my eyes were giving me trouble. They wouldn’t stop watering, so I had to call it early. Better late than never, right?
At any rate, LaBeouf got in a bar fight with a guy that was laughing at him and called him a gay slur. He got in the guy’s face, tried to take a swing at him and got popped in the lip. Cops showed up, cuffed both combatants but let them go when neither of them wanted to press charges.
I don’t particularly care to rake LaBeouf over the coals for the altercation. But it does stand as evidence toward every negative impression I have of the guy. The level of insecurity on this guy must be pretty high if he immediately feels the need to get in a fight because some random dude insults his masculinity. Also, I doubt LaBeouf would have been so tough if he weren’t being backup with with the dozen or so friends he brought with him that night.
I guess what I find most befuddling is why LaBeouf is hanging out in bars when he’s an admitted alcoholic?
Then again, that never stopped Charlie Sheen.
Oh, well. Just another night on the town in Young Hollywood, I suppose. He has his fun and I have mind.
Tell you what, Shia, just to make it up to you, how about I share the Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon Super Bowl spot with everyone. Looks like another signature Michael Bay explode-o-thon to me. I caught the commercial during the game on Sunday and really couldn’t make heads or tails of it. It doesn’t tease anything. It doesn’t tell you much at all. It basically tells you, “Hey, this movie exists.” Oh, and “BOOOOOOOM!”
But you can make your own decisions…
So, what did you think? Why not leave your comments below? Oh, and don’t forget to keep your eye on the Bonus Materials blog for more reactions to some of the Super Bowl trailers that came out this weekend. It should be a good time.
Not a fun as a bar fight, but still a good time.
You didn't have anything to do with that, did you?
Nooooooo....
POW!
LABEOUF DID IT!
I’ve got no lost love for Shia Bidoof, either. He’s come across as something of a pompous jerk in every post-Holes interview I’ve seen him in. As for the Transformers 3 teaser, I’m sure I’ll see it, but I think I’ll wait for the DVD on this one unless friends want to see it in theaters. The trucks crashing and transforming in mid-flip was pretty cool though.
To tell you what I think of this comic, let me share a converstaion I had with my boyfriend recently.
Him: So I noticed [from the Facebook “About” section] that Theater Hopper hates Shia. Did that solidify your love for the comic.
Me: >.> Maybe….
I went on to clarify that I already liked it, but picking on Shia made it BETTER, so there you have it. Great strip today.
I must admit, the hating on Shia certainly cemented my love for this webcomic even more. I mean, I just don’t think he’s a good actor at all. I did enjoy Eagle Eye, mostly cause he gets his ass kicked in it, but the movie failed when it let him survive his bullet wound. It would have been the best movie ever if Shia had died in it!! 😀
If you check out Apple.com/trailers, there’s more of a teaser there that helps with the title of the movie a bit. After watching THAT trailer, I was surprised the movie had Shia in it at all… Whatev.
Transformers….Hmmmm? So the city of LA got allllllll that destruction from the first go round cleaned up and repaired? Must have been Union labor,lol. So much for “Keep the humans Safe” and “No fighting within the populace”. I’m sure the ACLU will be getting calls after the dust settes. This movies franchise suck’s. I will watch it free on the internet like the last time.
