Full Metal Sarge: Hollywood Is Rotten to the Corps

Breaking down grown men is what actual Marine-turned-"Full Metal Jacket" star R. Lee Ermey does best -- but even the ol' drill sergeant thinks the major malfunctions of today's stars are way beyond repair.

3. Sadly, he's probably right, though Britney seems to be making an about-face with a little tough love. Maybe he ought to do a reality show, where he kicks them into shape the Full Metal Jacket way. Last one standing gets to stay in Hollywood and the others are sent back home. At least the pap knew enough to address him as "Sir". Maybe there's hope.

8. Stars (? term is used loosely) act the way the do because of stupid people, the public, who continue to support them. The concept of continuing to spend your hard earned money or waste your precious time (because it is) on people who have NO talent and even less class is mind-boggling to me. There is enough talent in America where all this recycled 2nd chance BS needs to stop. There is more talent on America's Got Talent than what's being marketed, hence the lip-synchers but not singers, booty shakers but not dancers and I won't even begin to start with actors, models and the rest. How did these people get shoved in front of us? Why are they still there? I demand product for my money, the real deal. If I'm at a vocal concert I want you to SING, if it's a movie I want you to act. Enough of the "comebacks" who should have stayed gone or in rehab. Has America really become as dumb as other countries say? Seems so if evidenced by the entertainment industry. Why can't REAL talent get a break and get their shot stardom? When are people going to keep their money in their pocket until things change?

10. I thought this was Prince Von Ahole. I guess he's been busy spending Zza Zza's money since he keeps her locked up in her own Bel Air mansion.

13. Hollywood isn't beyond muscular and vascular redemption, it's beyond Santa Monica. I like his attitude though.

14. There are NO LONGER "stars"......they've been replaced with talentless skanks that spread their legs for their living. I agree with the previous poster, we need to STOP supporting these people. Go Gunny! OORAH!
