“I’m Still Here” is all a lie. Joaquin Phoenix’s “documentary” was all a performance that was done. Casey Affleck, the director of “I’m Still Here,” broke his silence about the movie after it was blasted by film critics who thought it was real after it was released last week. Everything within the movie was set up to happen, such as the David Letterman appearance and also the drug-addled rap performances Phoenix gave. Affleck things that “I’m Still Here” shows how good Phoenix is in her career. Phoenix may just have ruined his career though. Affleck can jump on that bandwagon too. Article source – Affleck says Joaquin Phoenix meltdown in I’m Still Here is a hoax by Personal Money Store.

Joaquin Phoenix mockumentary

The New York Times showed an interview with Casey Affleck and Michael Cieply Thursday talking about the contrived “I’m Still Here”. The movie allegedly documented the deterioration of the mind, body and spirit of Joaquin Phoenix after he received an Academy Award nomination for his portrayal of Johnny Cash in “I Walk the Line.”. Phoenix performed for two years for this. He began by growing his beard. He gained weight. Even the TV host on David Letterman was totally fooled by his character in a 2009 appearance. Following the critics and public disliked the film so much, Affleck decided it was time to tell the fact. The Letterman Show has invited Phoenix back to talk to. This can be happening September 22.

More hype for a hungry media

Affleck may just be trying to get more people to look at “I’m Still Here” by saying Joaquin Phoenix was in a mockumentary. Washington Post bloggers Jen Chaney and Liz Kelly said Phoenix and Affleck are letting everybody in on the joke now hoping for making individuals more likely to view the film and understand correctly what they were trying to accomplish. The movie doing well does not really matter, they say. What is significant is that society sees that anybody can become self destructive in public, even Academy Award nominee.

Deception changes things in Hollywood

There aren’t that numerous individuals interested in the objectives of the filmmaker. Patrick Goldstein, a Hollywood reporter for the Los Angeles Times, said the “I’m Still Here” ruse will backfire on Affleck and Phoenix. Goldstein shows the opinion of show-biz insiders. They believe the movie is “self-important, exercise in foolishness, concocted by two knuckleheads who seemed peeved either because they did not have successful A-list careers or because they thought the industry was too dull and mindless to allow them to take the kind of bold risks that real artists take.” Goldstein had a source give an opinion on what will happen on the Letterman appearance. He said, “Boy, if Letterman was not in on the joke, he is really going to take that poor guy to the cleaners.”

Sanchez of CNN has dropped hateful words on Jon Stewart, writes Mediaite. He has called Stewart a bigot and alleged that he’s like the rest of the “Jews than run entertainment”. The low blog from Sanchez seems particularly ill-conceived, considering that comebacks are the domain of comics, instead of self-important pseudo-entertainers. Resource for this article – Rick Sanchez plays the bigot card on Jon Stewart by Personal Money Store.

Do not hate Sanchez

Reporting and entertainment have blended a bit meaning that satire can be found on the front page with programs like “The Daily Show” and “The Colbert Report” that work to only be satire. Rick Sanchez has a “traditional” cable news show with CNN. These implies that are attempting to make jokes made fun of Rick Sanchez. He lost his head during his section on Pete Dominick’s satellite radio show yesterday, writes Mediaite. True, Sanchez afterwards tried to backpedal following the “Stewart is a bigot” comment by saying that a better choice of words would be “prejudicial” or “uniformed,” however the damage was already done.

Requesting ‘What group is he bigoted toward?’

Over the comment, Dominick worked for making sure Sanchez was engaged. This was probably to help Sanchez get out of what he had just said. Things just got worse. Sanchez practically hung himself with his words. He did not help himself with the “Jews run entertainment” comment. He should have said something else.

Minority hurling crap

When Dominick reminded Rick Sanchez, who’s Hispanic, that Stewart is a small section himself in that he is Jewish, Sanchez went for distance with his next remark. He explained that those who run “all other networks” are “a lot like Stewart” who’s a lot like those running Cable News Network. Sanchez may have made things even worse. Next he said, “I cannot see somebody not getting a job someplace because they’re Jewish.” Make your own decision on it.
