...so vapid that someone's off-screen politics affects the pleasure you derive from their screen performances? Not to get off point, but do you have a similar attitude towards friends and co-workers, for instance?FTR, there are a number of right-wingnut (NeroCon) performers whose roles I still enjoy because it's the ON SCREEN work which I'm consuming and I can set the political differences aside.
>>> "I was a fan of Ed Norton(awesome job in Primal Fear) until he displayed himself as a flaming lib, I had to throw him on the scrap heap." <<<
Sheeeesh! I don't care if an artist happens to be one of Rush Limburger's Vicodin poppin' ditto-heads or a Bush pro-war groupy as long as it doesn't impact what I see on the screen talent-wise. Off screen I have a lot of respect for those who express their Constitutionally protected free speech rights, regardless of whether they're "flamming libs" or Daddy Warbucks Bush apologists, but I'd never allow my personal opinion of an actor to deteriate to the point of shallowness by boycotting the artist's work, as you've apparently done.
