Sad, Philip had a nice family and millions of dollars. Just couldn't kick the heroin.

they weren't married, so they obviously weren't really a familySaved from what?
he probably wasn't even saved

Wasn't he openly gay? (serious question)
Saved from what?
I liked him in the criminally underrated Lumet flick, Before the Devil knows you're dead.
Congenital defect, nothing to do with roids.
But just think how lucky he is. He gets to be in Heaven with all the past pro bodybuilders that have died for us.
Pretty fat for a heroin user..
~Junk in peace~
Having unlimited access to money and room service will tend to do that to some people. Hell I know of a Lawyer who was 5'8 350 pounds who died of a cocaine overdose...How the fukc can someone eat all hopped up on cocaine? Crazy...
Sad news. I can't think of any movie that he didn't make better. Terrifically talented.x100000000000000000

Religion hopefully ;DX2.
might be that fetanyl stuff that's going around, they're calling it "theraflu" or "bud ice"Fetanyl isnt new by any means. Seen it around maybe 6yrs ago. Def hardcore shit, it's taking transdermally through a patch. Hoffman prob jus came out of rehab or jus had a run of sobriety. His tolerance was down and he got a hot batch of diesel and that's all she wrote
22 heroin users have died in my city since january 19 and several more overdosed
the stuff is so potent, heroin users currently in rehab are trying to get out so they can try the stuff

very sadNot sure if serious. But if you are.
he was great opposite tom cruise in rain man
perhaps he was having problem coping with his transvestitism in tootsie
Who?
No, wasn't in a band, was an actor.
Apparently another source saying he was found dead in his bathroom with a needle in his arm, I believe he had a heroin addiction before but kicked it.

BREAKING NEWS: Actor Philip Seymour Hoffman found dead in the bathroom of his 4th floor apartment with a needle in his arm.
Who?Pretentious liberal, known for playing ironic roles, christ I really hope they get rid of sean penn next.
I liked him in the criminally underrated Lumet flick 'Before the Devil knows you're dead'.
i forgot he was in charlie wilsons war, good movie. is that on netflix now?
Loved Owning Mahowny and Doubt.
Let it rain!
I have a theory about this... There seems to be a common thread between such amazing talent and addiction.
I think the very thing that made him such an incredible talent, is also the same thing that caused him to dabble in the first place. He immersed himself into everything he did 1,000%. For Philip, there was no holding back. He threw himself into his work, and it is that same desire to experience other characters 1000% that can lead people to want to experience other things with the same gusto. Some things however shouldn't be experienced. Heroin is one deadly addiction. Such a tragic loss.
It makes me fearful for others in whom I see this personality trait. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if it was reported that certain others also have substance issues. My thoughts go out to his family. Such a tragic loss. :'(
Tone it down, man. Guy was an ACTOR. Hardly requires an unusual amount of talent.Agreed!
EVERYONE these days is an actor. And this fact has quashed the myth that the thespian art is something special.
It isn't.
Oh, and the dude chose his path. And now he's dead.
*waits for the endless bullshit about how talented and amazing an individual he was* ::)
apols tu holmes
it was a cheap gag
a mate of ours put his pic up on Facebook- i responded with 'wasn't he the bloke who did the noises on police academy'
they put a picture up
i posted 'thats him black fella
they responded with 'he's white'
I gave up out of despair
Yes it's so easy to be an actor. I could do it myself but all those millions don't interest me. ::)

oh, brother GetBig's resident "actress" has spoken ::)
Every time on of these self-indulgent queers bites the dust from drugs, you drag yourself away from your cash for gold scheme to "defend" him or her...PSH...and PSH alone...is completely responsible for what he chose to do to himself
While one can certainly feel compassion for his family (at least for the kids anyway), you look like a complete jackass trying to describe his death as "tragic."
Are you kidding me? Are you saying that to try to be argumentative, or do you really believe that?
Let me assure you, that is simply NOT the case. Anyone can be an actor, ...however, not everyone can be a true thespian. Philip Seymour Hoffman was a true thespian. NO BS, he was incredibly talented, and an amazing actor. Perhaps you don't recognize this because you are not familiar with the craft or technique involved, coupled with the fact that he performed so seamlessly. The brilliance of an actor is NOT pretending to be someone else, it is to strip away every aspect & facet of YOUR personality, leaving behind ONLY those aspects of who you are, that will portray the character. Some "actors" or "stars" are always the same. Regardless of the characters they portray, you will always see 'them' in their performance. For me Matthew McConaughey is one of those actors (sorry Matthew), but Philip Seymour Hoffman put nothing of himself on the screen. His commitment to his characters was total. He WAS his characters.
No, I am not kidding. Acting isn't some big deal. The "craft", as you say (oh, brother), is one of the least impressive artistic talents; if not THE least impressive.
And as far as this Hoffman guy, well, I see him in every role he has ever done.
The big sham has been exposed, as I say. Acting is not much of a talent.
Put it this way. There are much more talented people walking the streets of any city on any given day, anywhere, than all these glorified "artists" known as actors.
What a racket it all is. Huge awards shows to "honour" a bunch of people who took the whole drama class schtick too far after high school. Believing in the whole "craft" nonsense.
I love movies. But the true talent is ALWAYS behind the camera, not in front of it.
He was a good actor captivating presence on screen the kind of guy who demands attention without having to open his mouth. Sucked in hunger games, I do agree acting is a somewhat dumbed down art, the talent behind it is captivating the audience with your emotion which even though sounds easy is rarely ever done. If you want to see the difference in acting ability watch a b rate sci fi movie then go watch An a list actor. You can use the same argument about there being 100s of thousands of amateur actors who just don't have the connections but that arguement holds true to anything, sports for example.
sa news but he didn't respect his life. I'll never understand why people with so much money, no financial worries and set for life need to escape reality with the use of drugs :-\

Don't be a jackass.I agree. There are also other factors that the public never realizes nor do the actors themselves.
Yes, you could be an actor, but without heaps of luck and knowing the right people, you wouldn't get anywhere ... just like the tens of thousands who also are actors and haven't gotten anywhere.
Some 12-year-old kid who's never acted in his life gets cast opposite some Hollywood legend and holds his own just fine ... A rapper who has never so much as starred in a high school production gets a gig in a big blockbuster and performs every bit as well as the established thespians alongside him ...
There are better and worse actors, sure, but even the best actors aren't in possession of some ultra-rare talent.
Who is defending his heroin use? Making sense of something is not defending it.
The man was using heroin, overdosed and died... what's to defend about that?
The only thing I defend is his talent as an actor. He was truly one of the greats.
And yes, it is tragic, ...a tragic waste of talent & potential. A husband, lover, father, actor is dead...
...because of an addiction to heroin! That is a tragic loss to his family, his loved ones, and the artistic community.
PSH looked 20 years older than he was. Some people just do not age well.
Red Dragon.
Hollywood is filled with homosexuals that live a very risky life...If they let strange men stick their filthy kawks up their ass, then shit like Heroin probably seems like a cake walk...

Do you think the mass media would have the same glowing, heart warming reaction if Philip Seymour Hoffman was an unknown poor inner city minority kid who died of a drug overdose with 70 bags of heroin in his apartment?

I didn't know who everyone was talking about this morning until I put a face to his name. That sucks!
Heroin, man... fucking opiates. They're so powerful. He could probably score real good H no problem, but that's the inherent problem. Could have been a super potent does. I don't know if he's fucking around with Fentanyl and all those other crazy opiates. Those are all some serious ass drugs. One dose and I'd be on my ass.
Lets hope people take a positive message away from this. No one's invincible. Opiates ruin lives and if someone's facing addiction or knows someone facing it, they should seriously consider professional help.
Phillip Seymour Hoffman turned his 10,000$ Apartment in NY into a shooting gallery. The drug that could of saved his life and is like gold was right in the bathroom he died in. I have been on subutex for 3 weeks and the stuff is amazing!

Love the fact that a thousand no name junkies OD in NYC all the time and now one big name junkie OD's and the cops and politicians are all "This heroin is terrible! We must arrest all heroin dealers!"
He was intent on destroying himself. He did, and then some. Give him an Oscar. Excellent performance. ::)you've got all the answers......don't you? ::) you talk like you knew the guy.

Love the fact that a thousand no name junkies OD in NYC all the time and now one big name junkie OD's and the cops and politicians are all "This heroin is terrible! We must arrest all heroin dealers!"my thoughts exactly. All over the nation people of varying classes are ODing every day, every week, and some rich actor who just came back a 10 day detox, dies. Now, "it's time to get serious"? Please. This dude had millions to go into the best rehab and detox facilities. Does the average junkie have that?

The rich (and powerful) will do what the rich will do. Personal responsibility is not their priority, but when they slip up, then "something must be done."

Matt reminded me about this thread, in which we celebrate the stunning heroin-overdose-death performance by some chubster actor.
“The craft”
Oh, brother.
Is Philip Seymour Hoffman still dead?
Fortress - your comments in this thread were so great I shared it with several friends.
It makes me wonder if David Spade may have copied you for his 2014 comedy special, that came out slightly after your comments here.
You can search for "David Spade acting is easy" on YouTube, or start watching from 13:10 here, because this video has better audio:
LOL!
I never thought much of actors, but wow - you said it. As did David Spade there.
Now I just can't escape the thought that acting is a sham.
