Nope haven't seen many of those, thankfully. What a crap list of movies.
Actually I did see part of Life Aquatic but turned it off because it sucked so bad. I don't remember him from that though.
I think I vaguely saw the 'meet the' movies but someone else was watching and I wasn't paying that much attention. Don't remember him from there either. I remember DeNiro, Stiller, and MechaGodzilla, er Streisand. That's about it.

It's not about watching it. You say you've never heard of him. Some of us find it odd (i.e., bullshit) that you are on a DVD website, since 2000, and you haven't heard of any of the listed movies. No one is "up in arms."
With an "XBL Gamertag" name like "DethBoxx," I wager you've seen at least 3-4 of them.

Didn't see the other two actually I was just saying the list was crap in general.

Sad news! I'll only say this. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. It solves nothing, and it is indeed selfish. My nextdoor neighbor commited suicide. She was gay and a recent relationship she was in ended. What she did devastated her family, especially her sister who found her.

Oh and about Porieux, all this person is trying to do is hijack the thread and guess what, he/she is winning. Don't even pay attention to this person anymore.
Although, along with RiotInMySkull, I'd kinda like to see Porieux's top five films.

Maybe, as his location indicates, he's not actually from Earth. That's the only way someone on a DVD website for the last seven years would not have ever seen Owen Wilson.

I'm not acting, sheesh, is it really this hard to believe?
Why in the world do people have to take this personally?
If I saw him in some random trailer, I took no notice of it.
I never said I didn't like him...I said I didn't know who he was.
That's a night and day difference!
EDIT: man all these attacks on me in this thread, and if I reply
people will say I'm hijacking the topic. Just stop assuming someone
with different experiences than you is automatically a troll. Thanks.

Mental depression cannot be avoided if your are pre-disposed to this condition. Only therapy and a prescription drug regimen will get you to the next day.
Sadly in Hollywood, some of the unfortunate suicide victims include George Sanders, Brian Keith, George Reeves (TV's Superman), Marilyn Monroe, Peter Duel, Michael Dunn, Ed Flanders, Nick Adams, Rusty Hamer, Rick Jason, Freddie Prinze, and Herve Villechaize.

Marilyn Monroe was murdered in 1962 it's was not a suicide.You need to read-up on the subject of Miss.Monroe ok.

Look, I'm not taking it personally; I'm just finding it hard to believe that there is someone out there (especially a member of a DVD/movie forum) that has no clue who Owen Wilson is.
Anyway, I was flipping through cable and I saw that You, Me, and Dupree was on, I know it's an awful movie, but I just had to watch a little. It honestly felt a little weird (in a sad way) watching Owen's scenes.
