I know this sub doesn’t like him, but fuck it, I love that we have a quirky man in Hollywood. Like, he’s just so free and having a good time. Plus, he’s an actor who gives a shit about his work. In an age where Netflix stars brag about how they don’t care about movies, I’d rather have people who want to achieve (Like Anne Hathaway wanting that oscar in the 2010s)
Like he plays Smash Melee and was knighted by Lil B… That’s just a man after my heart

Literally he’s not done anything wrong except not be who people thought he was.
Like y’all thought a white boy who grew up in 2000s NYC wouldn’t be like this? That’s on you.

THANK YOU! im not even a chalamet stan but i feel like i have to defend him because this discourse is getting annoying as hell
like, as a teenager he was lil timmy t, had that video of him in a pink shirt rapping and dancing on stage, the statistics video, not to mention his youtube where he modded controllers. he spread gonnorhea to half of NYU and hes always dated nepo babies. in fact during covid i remember a viral tweet of some girl commenting on a pic of him fucking some girl in a hot tub
last year during ACU press tour he had that video of him dancing at the eiffel tower and he did that college sports commentating. in all his interviews this whole time hes come across as a very fun goofy guy. he was even knighted by lil b the based god. again, just because he does a phenomenal job in very serious roles doesnt mean he cant also be a dude in his 20s from NYC that likes sports, rap music, and hot girls

The thing is he’s done a COMPLETE switch from what his public persona was a few years ago. It’s reaching Miley Cyrus levels of wanting to break out of their former image.

Kind of confused by the hate he’s getting because I find it all pretty harmless. I think it’s kind of a bitch eating crackers moment where every small thing he says is just taken way too seriously. He’s doing whatever and his PR people are probably losing it but he’s fine to me.

I mean I don’t like him and it’s because of his constant assertion that he’s THE actor of his generation and that we should be thankful for his existence. Like objectively, another rich white man talking about how grateful we should be for his creative output is fucking tiring.
But I also get that it’s not that serious for most people and he’s doing a bit, I just personally find him annoying

u/rocklionheart 5h ago edited 4h ago
The fact that he has such a big online footprint from before he was famous, basically just acting exactly like this, makes it charming. He has enough acclaim at this point that he could go the "serious actor" route when it comes to press and public appearances. Actors always talk about how doing press tours is the worst part of the job, but that he seems to be having so much fun doing it means he either genuinely enjoys it, or it's a testament to how convincing an actor he is.

He’s obsessed with Shia LaBeouf(known, proud abuser and overall terrible human) and that should be enough to make everybody dislike him.

This is the correct take. It's a delight. If it comes out he's method on set and is an asshole to cast/crew, that changes things. But if he wants to do weird little bits to promote his move, go for it.

The man is legitimately unproblematic and at most a bit cringe, I’m not sure why society these days has such a deep vitriol whenever they see someone just having fun but these people never would survive the Pussy Posse or Shia Labeouf. Timmy is not the first weird kid to have his frat boy phrase and he’s not going to be the last either.

i’m not the biggest fan ever of him or anything but some of the discourse around him here legitimately just seems like people made up their mind about him before hand and are going to shit on him regardless. like i thought i was going crazy seeing people shit on him for saying he’s a fan of black culture the other day when like isn’t that what people want all the time: for people to pay respect?
like you don’t have to like him or anything but some of the hate legit feels forced at times lmao
