It affects your ability to swallow food too.

edit: that is dysphasis…

That sucks.

Probably explains why he was mostly cranking out VOD trash for the last few years.

 

[rsw626]

To be fair, he hasn't really acted in years. Just showed up and read a handful of lines in some B/C movies for a paycheck.

When I initially got the notification of Willis' aphasia, I thought it said "alopecia" and assumed it was a well-played parody.

Yeah, I was about to come in and post "hopefully Chris Rock gets informed before the next Oscars"

We love ya, Bruce. Keep fighting the good fight!

Shitty.

Sucks for his youngest kids the most.

Hard to believe how the years unraveled.

This is an incurable condition it sounds like.

Does this explain why all the Die Hard movies suck, after #3?

Hudson Hawk is much derided, but actually a good flick.

I actually enjoyed the RED movies.


and striking distance was a good one

It’s so bad it makes you laugh. I guess in that sense it’s “good”
