Oh.

I'm so disappointed in Jason Momoa right now. (For those of you who don't know, he played Khal Drogo in Game of Thrones, and was recently on a Comic Con panel discussing it.)

"I've never been a part of anything remotely close to this," Momoa says, when asked to compare working on a Sci Fi Channel show to working on an HBO show. He loves that

I didn't really expect something like this from him - but I'm not too surprised either. Momoa has a kind of humour I just hate, beginning since the mooning incident with David Hewlett which everybody thought was oh so funny, but not me.

Jason is just the kind of person I try to stay from away as far as possible in RL.

I was pretty surprised to see this, as I didn't know anything about him really as a person - and this is why I often prefer not to know what people are behind characters I like :( I haven't heard anything about a mooning incident, but it doesn't sound as if that would be something I'd appreciate either!

He talks about this here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38QmlwFkNjg

David is also there and plays along and it doesn't seem as if he is upset about this at all - but it still disgusts me.

Oh, that's just horrid.

I generally agree with what you say in a comment above: I often prefer not to know what people are behind characters I like. Between the whole "cult of celebrity" thing and disappointments such as this one, it rarely seems worthwhile.

[frith_in_thorns]

Yeah, I mean god forbid his character would have to rape ugly women *rage*

I really don't like it when someone who's acting/writing/whatever I admire goes and does something like this - it's a real let-down and does colour my future viewing of their work. And I wish people would stop saying things like this so I don't have this dilemma! Grr.

[frith_in_thorns]

That was pretty much my reaction too. Urgh :(

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, but... :(

[frith_in_thorns]

It's like every time I turn around there's a reason for me to further dislike AS0IaF and the people associated with it!

But yeah, I'm still surprised when guys say these sort of things, even though I really shouldn't be by now...

... the hell?

:(

[frith_in_thorns]

Pretty much :(
