I want to be Elliott Gould (when he wasn't crap)

AND IT WAS THIS:

He even makes Donald Sutherland (a pretty decent actor, but no icon)

Sutherland!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SO good.

"... you'd have to marry Barbra Streisand tho - and, ask yourself this, do you really wanna do that? "

YESSS!!!!!

That Max Devlin thing looks awful, though.

Movie veteran ELLIOTT GOULD has designed a new line of Nike bags under his real name, Elliot Goldstein.
The M*A*S*H star has been wearing Nike products for years - and now the sportswear giants have decide to honour his commitment by giving him his very own bag line.
And the thrilled star, who turns 70 this summer (Aug08) decided to use the name he was born with for the honour.
He says, "Sometimes Nike will give some of their products to me. I don't endorse them, there's no business and they just asked me if I wanted to design a bag.
"The bag I designed is the Elliot Goldstein 38 - the year I was born. It's just a shlepping bag. It's a bag to carry my gym stuff in."
But Gould admits his new bag is far from perfect: "One of the zippers broke right away. It's a one of a kind bag just like me."

^^ crazy interview, plus he looks like dennis farina

I brought two pictures with me to New York; one is Letters from Iwo Jima and the other is A Hole in the Head, Richard Ledes’s first picture. So, you know, I need to stay within focus and stay within the frame and just be sensible about all this. But I don’t have any plans. I have a plan to replace my fucking hips. I spoke with Jack Nicholson and told him I didn’t want to see The Bucket List. I’m not a big fan of Rob Reiner. I respect Rob Reiner to some degree but, you know, Rob Reiner, whatever. I just didn’t want to see The Bucket List, it seemed so formulaic to me.

I mean, some of this is awesome and all, but...is he.. senile?

not wanting to see Bucket List is common good sense

It takes some guts to program Harry & Walter Go to New York!

that's it

i'm coming down for california split

oh shit, long goodbye q&a?????

ha, I MISSED THAT!

for Little Murders too!

LM is the one w/ the Onion "afterparty"

i kind of shudder at that

anyway, this is as good excuse as any for a long-delayed nyc trip... if im not broke as a joke by then

so I just shrug and move about life, kinda like a less sexy Eliot Gould.
