James Franco is Pissing Me Off

May be those who are modest and decent people?

Ouch. That's a little heavy handed, no?

My opinion: I will tutor him in any subject he wants...mmmmhmm!

Really now, this thread is amazing to me. Of all the stupid shit celebrities do, you're mad at James Franco for going to school? Seriously?

He certainly has no obligation to prove his qualifications to the public. The public doesn't vote on who gets to go to Yale! (but seriously, vote for me please) The only legitimate line of questioning here at all is whether or not you liked his published work. Perfectly valid if not. You could even then draw a valid conclusion that it reflects poorly on the school when an alumnus of theirs does bad work.

But other than that, all these rumors do a disservice to academia, and make everyone look extremely catty. Really now, you read a post on the interwebs from a guy who knows a guy who had a class with him who said he skips class a lot and hits on girls? Astonishing.
