Because as Wahlberg related, when he saw his ucpoming weapons-toting hero Max Payne in the editing room, “I was like, ‘Yes! This is the sh-t I need to be doing! This is the stuff that makes people say, ‘You know what, you’re the man!’ This is it!’”

Which brings us to M. Night’s probably ill-fated recommendation. “[Night] gave me the worst advice he could have ever given me. He said, ‘After [‘The Happening’], you can never hold a gun again. You know that, right?’ I said, ‘Are you crazy?’ He said, ‘I’m serious, don’t ever hold a gun again.’ And I said, ‘I don’t know about that, man.’”

I don’t know. That’s like telling Van Damme to never do the splits again. Or telling Swayze, you got cancer, you should quit.

 

Just because he did it in a film that flopped doesn’t mean he should avoid those roles altogether. And it seems a little specific. Its not like he advised him never to do action again. It was just about guns.

If Max Payne flops (its potential success is hotly debated) then the ShamHammer might bark back a “toldya so” but I still don’t think it would hold much weight.

Imagine how many movies Walberg held a gun? Id wager its at least a third of his movies. Just sounds right. So one movie with a gun in hand that flops and his advice is to never go there again?

I haven’t seen the Happening, so I don’t know if there is some deeper meaning to his character and the gun, but this just sounds so random that it doesn’t make sense.
