    you werent in on it so if you were fooled then phoenix did his job and he did it well.

    i KNOW letterman knew, as much as id know if it was my show. letterman is a savvy guy. guests are researched. phoenix was on the show to promote himself and he did just that. he just went about it differently.

    easy cate. if I was calling Letterman dumb, I'd be calling myself the same thing, cause at that point I was fooled. It was when I found out he was FILMING his career changet that I figured it out. How do you KNOW that Letterman knew, exactly?

    watched it, and Letterman made him say that he wasn't in on it. Letterman was adamant that he knew nothing in advance, but figured it out when he found out Casey Affleck was filming it.

    the funniest part of the interview? It's a big joke with Joaquin and Casey that the film is doing very poorly, and Dave was bugging him for a million dollars since the original interview is in the film. Joaquin said "ok, well, can we talk about this in private?" to which Dave replied "sure, we'll go to one of your screenings".

    Awesome. I honestly think it's entirely possible that Dave really didn't know.

    good interview. i guess dave didn't know. but there's no way of knowing for sure.

    at one point in the interview phoenix said something like "you haven't seen it? you're like the only one. everyone's seen it." :lol: i didn't realize it was doing poorly and i thought he sounded pretty conceited. jeagler completely missed that sarcasm :mrgreen:

    the only thing is one of his writers has been claiming in the media for months that Dave knew. Don't know why Dave would let this guy do that if it wasn't true.

    Who knows.

    I'm thinking that it's due to a difference of opinion as to what Dave "knowing" about it really meant. If the writer is simply saying that Dave knew immediately that something was up when he saw Casey Affleck there then that's one way of saying "Dave knew". Now if the writer is saying that Dave and the writers met with Casey and Joaquin beforehand and went over everything then that's a totally different "Dave knew".

    I did love the jabs about how poor the movie is doing from both Dave and Joaquin. "This movie has made like seventy-five cents..." :lol:
