Sean Penn's 'interview' with El Chapo

2-feign-reluctance · January 2016

Nothing cool about it. I can't quite eloquently explain why I am not impressed or why I think he's just a little more douche-y with this latest stunt.

Empty Glass · January 2016

I agree 100%, but then I think about journalists that met with Bin Laden. Key word is journalists I guess, but the Penn thing seems douchey

It served one purpose, to further inflate the ego of a man who is a self-obsessed, evil, arrogant murderer of God knows how many people.

You know, the stuff Hollywood thrives on.

He'll get his wish, there will be a movie about him.

Bingo

I think it was fantastic that he was able to pull it off. The lengths some actors go through for their research is incredible.
It might be a big screen movie or a Netflix type documentary.
Either way it will be a very intriguing look into a sinister underworld and the ruler of it all.
Can't wait !

I get the allure of drug dealers, I fall for it too, but this is complete bullshit. Dude is serving as a propaganda machine for one of the most violent men in the world who is responsible for thousands of deaths.

Fuck Sean penn

While Sean Penn hangs out with him and provides the cartel leader final say on the story, this is what real journalists face

They wouldn't have found him if it wasn't for Penn's interview it turns out!

HesCalledDyer · January 2016

Sean Penn found him before our top agents did. Think about that for a sec.

hedonist · January 2016

I think he was more "findable" due to his lust to have a film made about him. Penn - from what I've read - did nothing special, could've been anyone.

As someone else mentioned, ego. Big motherfucking ego but, trying to hide behind a passive-aggressive curtain.

Penn is the liberal Ted Nugent. They're both jackasses who need to zip it.

I'm so glad Charlize dumped him.

No one cares about his ex.

I understand Mexico's bad economy - and long history with turning to drug manufacture/selling for a living. Desperation leads people down some dark paths, but what about the alternative? What about choosing another way that doesn't destroy the living slowly and kill at moment's notice? Chapo's interview answers are nothing - there's nothing romantic about them, or him. As for Penn....

Not sure why everyone doesn't like him..he's basically been rebuilding Haiti with his own two hands..

It never occurred to me to be bothered by this, and I don't really get why anyone is. I think it's pretty fucking interesting thing to do, actually. I don't understand what is supposed to be douchey about it.
The liberal Ted Nugent? Gimme a break. That's silly.
