The thing I'd observe about this whole thing are that the stars with staying power are the ones who behave professionally and treat their coworkers with respect. He may get a few big ticket movies while he's popular, but will anyone want to give him a job 20 years from now, if he's a pain in the ass to work with -- and *isn't* A-list popular anymore?

Am suspecting that rant probably either had mental illness fueling it or drug abuse, as well.
