Yeah good for him. You don't really have to work again unless you want to treat acting as a side gig.

Any ideas how this is going to affect Mint Mobile and it's $15 a month telephone and data plan?
It can't be good for consumers. T-Mobile is going to want to make that money back ... on the
backs of their subscribers.

His LinkedIn profile describes him as 'Part-Time Actor, Business Owner'.

reply

He's a one-trick pony as an actor, nice to know he's got something more interesting to do with his time!

I like his one schtick as an actor, BTW, especially in "Deadpool".

reply

I think I recall some of his rom-coms being pretty funny.
There is something annoying about him, face or voice, but I like
Mint Mobile, and some of his movies are not bad.

reply

Deadpool is basically Van Wilder in a mask. Same guy in 80% of his films, but he does have some really good thrillers out there. Much better actor than I expected him to be considering most of his work.

reply

I thought Deadpool was sick and I really hated it, and that type of movie in general. If given good material RR can meet the challenge.

reply

Agree 100%

Acting is just a hobby at this point. The millions he makes is kind of a pittance compared to what he's worth.
