Owen Wilson attempted Suicide -

I don't read the rag-mags. I don't watch ET or any of the rag-shows that highlight Lindsay/Brittany drama so this is an awkward post. But, geeezzzz.....I am so saddened by the recent hospitalization of Owen Wilson! It's crazy sounding, but I am completely bummed! He's brought me great joy and laughter when I was inconsolable. Anyone else like the O-ster? (not in some creepy fan way) -- but if I am going to unload 10bucks at the movies, I want to laugh and Owen rarely disappoints! I am so bummed....

I was disappointed to hear this news as well, if it is true. I think that Wilson is a talented comedian and is a pretty good writer too. Wilson's best films have been with his pal Wes Anderson ("Royal Tenenbaums", "Bottle Rocket", "Life Aquatic"). He has a new movie coming out next month directed by Wes Anderson: "The Darjeeling Limited."

Just reaffirms the old adage that money can’t buy happiness.

Yeah I'm a big fan. Had forgotten about him being in Life Aquatic but that is a good one too. Will have to see the Wes Anderson flic.

Agree with the original poster, I dont like to watch the news for the lindsay/britney/hilton/whatever drama. But was watching a segment on Mr. Wilson last night. Apparently he had a cocaine addiction and they were talking about how some addicts when they're coming down or having withdrawals will harm themselves to escape the pain of withdrawal.

Regardless it's a bit sad. Hopefully he can turn things around.

i was in ohio. i have an airtight alibi and some tickets from GAF leftover.

didn't he make fun of the dalia lama? perhaps this is buddhist payback ala mel gibson in that one movie about paybacks... last temptation of...

or maybe it's steve mcqueen's ghost for reincarting him a cartoon car in disney nic nac.
