The National Enquirer and Star magazine are reporting that Owen Wilson tried to commit suicide on Sunday and has now been transported to St. John’s hospital in Santa Monica. The Enquirer says that Wilson’s wrist was stitched and bandaged at the hospital, and that Wilson would “be detoxed.”

Still no idea, eventhough I watch a lot of movies I've only seen 4 of the ones you listed (well, half of them due to lack of quality...) (OK, CARS was great, but that's a voiceover...)

So we have a crapy actor no-one knows that tried to kill himself and also failed at that then...

A bit like Amy Winehouse I guess, everybody knows what she's doing, but no one seams to remember why she is famous in the first place...

Shit! That really suprises me that he'd try and kill himself! He doesn't seem that kinda guy.

Yeah, that's what occured to me and a lot of other people as well.

Well maybe you are just very unfamiliar with this actor then. I only knew him from some comedy movies but only Starsky & Hutch is what I curently remember him from. I think he often acts in movies with Ben Stiller.

Well I think he's a great actor. He's very funny and he seems to have his own egocentric style.

I must say I'm shocked to hear this. When you see him on the screen you wouldn't think he'd try to do something. He's so happy and spontanous. But after this it seems otherwise.

I've seen a picture of him now.....

Still no idea who this guy is, NEVER heard of him....

And I don't remember Starsky or Hutch having kids either, what role did he play in that TV series then?

I do get Antigoon's point though. I could have said Bladimir Blrwdrbzmitski attempted suicide and then everybody would have said the same...

Sure, sad thing to happen, but don't flame anyone like that for not knowing the person..!

Crappy actor!??? What the FUCK is wrong with you!!??? Don´t you have any respect at all!?
You know, I don´t go around calling you a shitty person do I??

If you would let yourself out of your own little world, then you would know that he is one of the biggest american comedians!! And worldwide known!!
I´m also quite shocked by this news if it´s true!

I´m glad he was found in time!! Hope he get´s well soon and get some help!!


PS: Sorry if my post was a little hard...

Also known for Shanghai Noon and Shanghai Knights:


But even though you don't know him, Antigoon, it's still sad, don't you think?

Well sorry, I don't watch B-movies... (when it says adam sandler on the title somewhere it's a B-Movie, sorry don't like that guy...)

Seams that this dude filmed a lot alongside him so no wonder I didnt know him... Also I never was a fan of Holywood "comedies", they're just not funny...

And yes, that makes you a crappy actor in my book...




And Bigtime, I never said he was a shitty person, just a crappy actor, and I should know because I am one myself... It takes one to recognise one mate...

But that's not the issue is it? I don't agree with you on what a B-movie is but leave it.
I had almost forgotten about that or those Jackie Chan movies.

I don't know this actor either, but do one of you knew the french actor Michel Serrault ?
No, I don't think so...
And he was very very well known in France, one of our best actors, and he died in the beginning of August, that was a sad news, really sad, but none out of France knew him...
