Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

The thought that someone who earned what Bruce Willis did was trying to set up his family is hilarious.

Unless he gambled a lot of his fortune away, Bruce Willis could nave retired in the late 90s and never worked again.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

Are you guys being obtuse on purpose?
Bruce was offered/getting paid a million dollars for a few days worth of work acting on a movie. Why the fuck wouldn’t he cash in on what little time he had left to make what he could? Even when you’re a millionaire, a million dollars is still a million dollars.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

That LA Times article that came out a while back seemed to insinuate that his management team may have been taking advantage of him and his condition for the limited work and big payday.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

If that was indeed the case, it’s horrible indeed. I hope the family wasn’t letting this happen. Unless of course they were unaware of his health problems.
It’s one thing to plan for your family of your own free will, it’s another to be taken advantage of by those said people.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

And I remember thinking it was weird when he didn't want to come back for Expendables 3. Even Stallone got upset and said they were offering Willis something like 6 million dollars for 3-5 days of work. It's the reason why Harrison Ford replaced him. They even let Harrison bring his helicopter and fly it for the film. So I've read.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

Willis started doing those shitty movies when he was still making real movies and so do a lot of other A-listers from yesteryear. So I'm pretty sure he was cashing in when he was full aware of it. The output he had in the last 3 years, lets me to believe that his management was cashing in, but I wouldn't say it's not a possibility he was holding on to something and just did the amount of acting he could as long as he could and sometimes he felt lost and other times he was fine.
Either way, to me, his career started fading out 10 years ago with the sequels of Sin City and RED and his career ended with a good supporting performance in Motherless Brooklyn.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

needed for any potential medical treatments for his illness, which could be costly as fuck, especially if off-label or experimental.. Not need so his daughters can ride diamond covered llamas around the olympic sized swimming pool. theres a difference there. which I would think even you should be able to see.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

I thought it was very well known that actors are always the model of financial responsibility and stability. There's certainly no precedent for an actor who has earned a lot of money in a career to have financial problems, is there? -rolleyes-

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

First, how much do imagine medical treatments could possibly cost? It is estimated that Willis is worth $200 million or more. He recently sold one of his homes for $27 million.

Second,
So, I guess no one needs to worry about paying for those medical treatments. His condition is going to get worse and worse, and then he will die.

The symptoms mentioned above are mostly psychological: Depression, eating disorders, misplaced aggressive behavior, delusions. Also loss of motor skills and speech impairment.

Now, do you want to tell us that all the people in the United States getting psychological therapy, speech therapy, and physical therapy --or just taking prescribed anti-depressants or anti-psychotic medication, need to have tens of millions of dollars in the bank to pay for their care. Willis is over 65. He can go on Medicare.

He's rich as holy fuck. You can just admit that what you said was misguided, you know, and be done with it.

And let me just be clear to anyone else, Willis was free to chase a buck wherever he could find one, and I don't begrudge him a single dime. But he didn't NEED the money.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

​​​​​​​So, are we playing the "What is possible?" game, or actually just talking about this particular guy?

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

Sure whatever you say. You’re right. Uh huh.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

Yes. I'm right. Bruce Willis is incredibly wealthy, and has been for decades.

Let's do Tom Hanks and George Clooney next. I say they're both fantastically rich. I know it's an odd and controversial opinion, but I stand by it.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

So its already been a year since it was announced he Aphasia. Time flies.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

When talking about that particular poster, no. He can't see any shades of gray. You used the word "need" somewhere in one of your posts about Bruce Willis, and therefore you said that Bruce Willis desperately needs all this money. Anyone with a brain in their head, knows what you said and what you meant. But then there's count dookie. Who only sees things in his own twisted way and always thinks he is right. Even when everyone else can clearly see that he isn't. Life is so much better just ignoring his incessant, argumentative, trolling posts.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

Reminds me of the Stan Lee stuff that came out after his death. Sad to hear and wish him the best.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

I'm talking hypothetically about possible experimental treatments, not conventional.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

Those that cost a million bucks are just as good as those for a Dollar.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

I read that story a week or so ago. It’s sad. Sounds like Bruce is deteriorating pretty quickly.

As far as us, I don’t imagine we’ll ever see him out and about again, with the exception of a sleazy paparazzi pic or single family photo posted by his wife.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

I know what you mean, but I hope no such photos surface. I don't know the man, yet I still want to only think of him as how he was.

Re: The One and Only Bruce Willis Thread
 

I hope the best for him and his family.

Just a joke. But "do I know you" is the ultimate power move in Hollywood.
