Something so smug about him.

He's good looking and seems to have some acting ability. But did he kind of just play himself in The Social Network? He already comes from a wealthy family and every picture or interview I see with this guy there is something so smug about him. I thought it was funny how when the film won best picture at the GG he was the only actor who went up. The other one's who were more talented and had larger roles sat down and were asked to come up, they were much more humble about it. The guy just seems to love the attention and is soaking up all that he can, he seems pretty accurate to who his character was.

i agree. he is a FAMEWHORE that's what. i used to like him (hunky, tall, has some acting ability) before i noticed he seems to be in EVERY promotion for TSN, eagerly jumping to all the interviews and showing off his trophy wife (who is beautiful, can't argue with that).
why is he even attending the GG and critics choice? it's not like he's nominated. timberlake, song and mara weren't even there.
the last straw was watching the today show, and goddamn it he's HOLDING A GOLDEN GLOBE! For what, exactly? Best Famewhore in a Motion PictureDrama. -

What a bunch of loser haters. The guys very nice and humbleget beep over it. He was proud of being part of the movie. And his job is to be EVERYWHERE, that's how movies get promoted these days. Everyone just needs to get over it.
I'm off like a dirty shirt!

I'm not delusional about him, my feet are firmly planted on the ground and I'm an adult woman (not a fangirl) who simply has not seen him do anything that would make me think what a douche he is. Cuz he hasn't done anything douchey. The day he does I'll admit to it and probably be the first on this board bitching about it.

I understand the fact that he wants to get his name out there and is trying to make connections, but he 5b4comes off so obvious. I mean all actors and actresses try to make as many connections as possible and want to get their name out there but he's just doing it to the point that he just comes off so fame whorish. I think he's very handsome and I could imagine him having a steady career in acting, but I feel like he needs to not be so much of a ham. For the sake of his career, I hope he isn't pushy when it comes to the connections that he makes because that can cause him roles.

I never got this impression. I think he's pretty charming well, just look at him
. He does seem comfortable in the spotlight unlike his co-stars, but I think that's 'coz he's from an affluent family and has a lot of celebrity friends so he's used to the attention by now. Also he has been generous in praise whenever co-stars Jesse and Andrew are mentioned, esp. Jesse
And about the GG, I saw it again last night. I guess when Michael Douglas announced the film as the winner, every one at "The Social Network" became too busy hugging and congratulating each other then Armie ended up besides Aaron Sorkin who came up and Armie joined him going up the stage while Fincher (who stood up hugging and congratulating every one else too when the film was announced winner) chose not to go up the stage and Jesse and Andrew followed his cue.
And sorry but I'm curious, I'm not from the US so forgive me from asking this, but why does it seem like an issue when someone is Jewish or not? -

Of course Eisenberg, Garfield and Fincher did not go up on stage. Best picture is awarded to the PRODUCERS. So it baffled me why Sorkin and Hammer were up there. Maybe I'd understand Sorkin, since he made a huge contribution for the project and was one of the people who pushed it into launch but c'mon Armie Hammer?
If anything the ones who should be there are Rudin, Pascal, Spacey and Brunetti. And I just recently found out that Fincher is one of the executive producers, but he already had his spotlight and he is known to be aversed to awards show.
He better change that attitude. I can see him fizzling away if more haters start to show up. -

From the first time I saw him, I thought he would be smug the way he looks and carries himself, but every interview, fan encounter, etc has proved me so wrong. I guess they should have discussed what they are going to do at GG, go up if they won or not. I actually saw nothing wrong with him going up.
And he did have a huge role in the film, he was playing two people actually. -

I agree! I watched him on ellen the other day, and he seemed so conceited about himself. To be honest, if I had to link him to a Disney character it would be Flynn Rider
Dare to reply.
I SAID DARE!!!

Honestly, I think it's just the way he looks and knowing he comes from money. I assumed the same about him until I met him while he was promoting The Social Network. He's actually very nice and charming. He even offered me his coat on the red carpet because it was an unseasonably chilly night in LA. And not in a romantic way, just a chivalrous gesture.
Leave the poor guy alone until he does something meriting all this hate.
AND, last note, just saw J. Edgar and I thought he was great in it. The movie on a whole is another story. -

Oh, I'll say it. It's not even anything vaguely smug. He's young so I'll give him that. Young and entitled. He hasn't earned his stripes yet. I don't care who he's starred with, how long has he been acting and how long did it take him to get high profile roles? I think he's blandly handsome so I'm not drooling all over myself over him (his height is a plus, though).
The stories that have circulated about his crazy wife are nuts. I've seen him interviewing for Mirror Mirror and he sounded like a complete ass. He starred in a movie with Julia Roberts and sounded so ungrateful and yes smug. He let's that crazy wife of his talk crazy to directors and stars that he's working with and doesn't put a muzzle on her, what?
Has anyone actually said any good things about this guy other than 'he's SO handsome/good looking', because I am really not impressed.238
Kiss my grits!
