"How extremely painful. I hope someone who loves him intervenes on his behalf. He's obviously very depressed and angry. He's a talented actor, but I certainly wouldn't call him a genius. He seems awfully self-absorbed, which could be a result of a serious drug addiction."
"You know what's kind of funny? Everyone here is freaking out about Phoenix's "bizarre" behavior when the only really bizarre thing he did was stick his gum to Dave's desk.
LISTEN to what he was saying. His responses were perfectly normal, yet we think they are "bizarre" because of how we expect a celebrity to respond to what are essentially yes or no questions.
His reactions to the audience and Paul Shafer actually had merit. What in the hell are you people laughing at? It bothers me too when people instinctively laugh at things that aren't funny.
This is an elaborate social experiment, and everyone's reaction here is proving his theory right."
