I agree, I like Penn, but Chris Rock was on it last night. Tim Robbins could laugh at himself and I bet Jude Law was laughing. I hope Sean Penn doesn't become Eddie Vedder.

Become E. Vedder? I heard Vedder laughing from here in Phoenix. Penn has always been a sour puss. It's like he's walking through life like it's an AA meeting and he's trying tell everyone they're alcolholics. You know he's never invited to the good parties:)

Sean Penn got the one response that he'd always intended : Everyone talking about Sean.
His ego was bruised when his name wasn't among the names, humorously played with by the wonderful Chris Rock, at the begining of the Oscars so Mr. Penn created a stir by using the good name of Jude Law. Granted it was a clever maneuver to compliment Jude and steal the attention away from him and put it back on himself.
Egos as giant as his can't very well do without being the centre of attention whether it be good attention or bad. In this case, if you really examine it closely, it's bad attention.
Sean Penn is a big spoiled baby that's crying for his bottle.
