He could enter politics; it worked for the Gipper.
As lefty radical as someone like Oliver Stone is, I don’t think Oliver Stone will reject someone saying “I don’t agree with his political opinions”, Woods has appeared in 2 Stone movies, so I don’t think all Hollywooders are spineless lemmings or pansies.
A sign that recovery IS possible.
In his younger days he was a registered Democrap and liberal. Apparently liberalism is an illness that CAN be grown out of.
Now if a whole bunch of other people in Hollywood would grow up as well!
Nick Searcy is still working and he’s downright rabid about his hatred of democrats.
My suggestion for Woods is that he find a production company that leans conservative like Colony Bay productions. They’ll get a big name who can draw conservatives and money and he can hold firm to his conservative ideals while using patriotic movies to teach.
It baffles me why he ever got involved in Hollywood in the first place. The guy was on full scholarship to MIT, he was/is brilliant, got a perfect score on his SATs, is an extremely literate speaker, can debate anybody under the table and he dumps all that to do a job that has the same job qualifications as a McDonalds cashier? Insane! This guy could have been POTUS if he wanted to, he could have been anything, and he chooses instead to work in an industry that puts subhuman pieces of pig vomit like Alec Baldwin and Sean Penn on a pedestal?
He played a great part in Ray Donovan. I highly recommend that series by the way.
Go, James, GO!!
He was pretty good in “Ray Donovan”, too bad they took out the “Whitey” Sullivan character. Then again, since Jon Voight is a main character in the show, I’d believe the producers of the show either lean right, or, dare we say, hire based on ability, not personal philosophy!
In any event, I think that Mr. Woods will stay employed in Holly-weird in spite of everything.
In Hollyweird left wing progressive liberal affiliation carries much more weight than talent.
I’ve always wondered why we couldn’t make our own (Conservative) movie-making city to counter Hollyweird :p
Rare Christian films.
I think he has quite cleverly set himself up to start getting offers, as Hollywood types trip over themselves to prove they are unbiased.
Not unlike Jason Williams’ strategy in coming out of the closet (though that has not paid off for him yet).
James Woods noticed the 9/11 hijackers on a practice run a few months earlier.
He notified federal authorities. Who did nothing.
The man has brains.
Maybe the producers ought to consider his tweets as having value.
James Woods was wickedly funny in the TV series “Shark” a few years back. It was of course canceled after a couple of seasons.
He used to be just a great actor. Now I know he’s got guts and character.
Unfortunately James has James Woods disease. Which consists of being one of the few coherent people working in Hollywood.
For me, he has box-office draw, apart from politics.
On the other hand, I used to love Ed Harris -- I still think he's a fabulous actor, and a handsome one to boot. But while I still enjoy the "old" movies (Abyss, The Right Stuff, Apollo 13), his new ones stink because I know who he is. Apaloosa -- yes, I watched it -- stunk.
Matt Damon? Used'ta love him, over him now. Nope. On the top of the list of actors (that includes Harris and Tom Hanks, too) this household refuses to see at the big screen. On the other hand, a flick with Kurt Russel or Clint Eastwood or Gary Oldman or Robert Downey, Jr. -- we're there at the multi-plex.
