Letterman been an enabler. He done had Harmony Korine up there several times on the verge of overdosing on set, and we all know Drew Barrymore's addict ass was on that good dope when she flashed him.

People forget who this dude really was. He was a degenerate junkie who was on the way out before Terrence Howard saved his career by vouching for the Tony Stark role.

Terrance Howard is a big reason that movie was a hit. He helped make it cool. Then for the sequel they rolled out millions for RDJ but offered Terrance a fraction of that :francis:

This him too


Night had come. There was a big moon on the sea. The house was yellow with electric light. We ate in the dining room, side by side as the chef served shrimp on skewers, then pad Thai. I was interested in the bad time, the lost years, drugs and prison, but did not want to be a jerk about it. I eased the conversation into a question about a specific event, sometimes called the Goldilocks incident, in which Downey’s neighbors came home to find the actor passed out in their 11-year-old son’s bed—apparently because that one was just right.

RDJ is proof to me that the Degenerate hollywood cabal is real.

This guy received so many chances from Hollywood before he finally decided to stay sober.

Why did Hollywood execs keeping giving a known junkie who was a liability to the studios and went through at least 3 crash and burn drug/rehab cycles so many chances.

:jbhmm:

I can think of a few reasons and none of them are good.
