>"thanks for hiring me anon, you make a great director. I'm sure your arts teacher will love this project. Say, you don't mind if I sleep in your car tonight? I'll be out in the morning, I promise."
>"a-anything for you, Mr. R-Roberts"
Why is Eric Roberts so based irl?
>>66731592
He was nominated for an Oscar in the 1980's and that makes you bulletproof.
>>66731535
Like Eric Roberts needs to sleep in anyone's car. This fucker works nstead of sleeping. He feeds off of procrastinators.
does he accept payment in hotpockets and Zena tapes?
>>66731641
You think I can hire him as my personal trainer? Or get him to do my tests?
>>66731686
add a cardboad box there and we have a deal
Mr.Roberts you really don't have to take payment in cough medicine, I can pay you in cash.
>>66731641
He won't sleep in your car, he'll wash it and will be on the set of his next acting appointment by 7:30am the following morning.
He cannot be stopped and he is all there is.
>>66731686
No, but I hear he'll work whole day in exchange for a bottle of vintage Zima
>>66731766
Kek
I like how this meme transitioned from "Eric Roberts will be in any film for $2.37 because he's probably desperate" into "Eric Roberts is such a bro that he will work for pennies and be your friend."
>>66731829
Like all classically written parts, he is undergoing profound character development.
>>66731686
Don't ever fucking reference "The Core" ever again
Eric Roberts insisted on performing his own stunts and really broke both of his legs in this scene from Nolan's Batman Begins. He didn't accept any monetary payment for his performance, stating that "The experience was the only payment I need".
>>66732247
that's the worst gif i've ever seen, it even has the audacity of being 2mb
>>66732247
That scene is so retarded. Did Batman consider him accidentally leaning too far back and cracking his head open?
>>66731686
he'll take a jar of anchovy brine, 17 used sticky notes and a deflated ball
>>66732285
is this better?
>>66732365
just
He actually is a bro though, I know a few dudes who work various jobs for a small film production company and have worked with him before, they say he pretty much talks to everyone and often is the one who starts the conversations.
>>66732543
"Got some change?" doesn't count as starting a conversation
>>66732543
so he's paid in friendly chats
>Congratulations, ma'am... it's a boy.
>O-oh my god! It's a boy, Harold! We just gave birth to a beautiful baby boy!
>I'm so happy, my love! I hope he grows up to love film as much as I do!
>Yes, err, well that's the thing. It seems that along with the baby, a VHS tape came out of you, ma'am. We only gave it a quick glance, but it seems to be an entire film anthology starring Eric Roberts.
>W-what?
>Indeed, and the director for every film is apparently your newborn son. The same thing has happened five times in the last year. It's that Eric Roberts... he really gets on top of his projects.
>>66732603
>receiving friendship as payment
that's depressively sad
>>66732693
nigga I'd pay Eric Roberts to be my friend for a week
>>66731535
>implying he sleeps
>>66731535
Just watched Runaway Train because of a doc on Cannon Films and I see this meme. It's a great film, I'd never heard of it and Roberts deserved the Oscar.
>wake up at 5am
>have a couple of pop tarts and instant coffee for breakfast
>rush out the door and race to work
>get to the studio, punch timecard
>script you've never seen before thrust into your hands
>shoot 10 minutes of footage in 4 minutes
>"Idontknowwhereheishefoundus, friendshaveyoumetthisguy?"
>sprint to the next set at the studio
>repeat ad infinitum
>punch timecard at 8pm, head home
such is life for Eric Roberts
>>66732365

>often is the one who starts the conversations.
No shit, he's looking for work.
>>66734230
documentary fucking when
>check Eric Roberts IMDB this morning
>he's been in 10 movies this year
>huh that's cool
>get home from work 6 hours later
>check again
>now 11 movies
not even joking. how the fuck does he do it?
>>66732365

>>66732713
How much? Does friendship involve sex stuff? If it doesn't involve sex stuff, we gotta be talking at least like $150 for 7 days, plus Greyhound fare to wherever you're at (in the lower 48 states) plus you gotta pick him up from the bus station, plus you gotta give him a couch or at least a carpeted floor to sleep on for the week.
If it does involve sex stuff, we're looking at an uptick into the $200 range for the 7 days, negotiable within reason.
Post an email address kiddo, let's talk business
>>66734502
>set it so I get an email alert on my phone every time an eric roberts movie goes into post-production
>makes it appear to people within my vicinity I have a semblance of a social life with a message every few hours
>>66732365
Thanks yify!
Daily reminder that at this pace Eric Roberts will have been in more movies than there have been threads about him by the end of the year
>>66734230
In 2009 some hollywood troll found his blackberry with his real email signed in, they have been replying "yes" to all role offers ever since.
Too hard to change emails now and he doesn't want to miss his big break, so he just does everything at 100%.
Watch the episode of Celebrity Wife Swap he was on.
He and his wife run a squirrel sanctuary in their backyard.
>>66732365
Jesus Christ, this absolute fuckery is why I love /tv/
Had a dependency on medical marijuana; I bet he's pretty cool.
>>66734655
>>66734502
>check his imdb
>36 roles listed for 2016 already
>After 3 hours of pay negotiations, a deal is struck
>Eddy McNamara, a director with down's syndrome, leans across the table to make his final offer to Eric Roberts
>"I went yur tah pay meh to be in my murvee."
>Eric slyly pretends to consider the offer before finally...
>"You got yourself a deal, Mr. Eddy. I'll give you half my life savings for 10 minutes of screen time."
>Smiling smuggly, Eric Roberts leans over to his agent, a blow up doll with a picture of his own face taped to the head, and whispers "That fucking idiot doesn't realize that he's been robbed. This is a role of a lifetime and worth double what we settled on."
>>66734160
Rebecca de Mornay in her prime and Jon Voight. looks good.
what does her charge per movie, like a grand?
>>66738830
37 dollars and a lukewarm hotpocket
I've never seen this guy before
>>66739066
>18+
is it possible for Eric to get his shit fucked up?
>>66732365
you should add some subtitles to the end like OUCH MA LEEEEGS
>>66738830
a discarded tissue and three jars of jam
>>66738830
Half empty bottle of grape Gatorade and a pat on the back
>>66738830
a box pork fried rice and a dap
>>66740301
wtf is a dap?
>>66740338
wtf is a google?
>>66731620
heh, it's like finding out a NBA bench player had an all-star appearance once like 5 years ago.
>>66740468
a website
>>66740613
>>66731829
It's because people finally checked their facts and found out he's swimming in cash. He works because he wants to, not because he needs to.
>>66731535
he's fucking ugly
>>66741733
for you
>>66738830
A continental breakfast and shotgun on the ride home
>>66734230
>shoot 10 minutes of footage in 4 minutes

>>66738830
40 bucks on a dave and busters card and a stack of old Penthouse mags
>net worth
>$8m
>50 roles a year
He legit must be paid as a featured extra each time.
>be me in my kitchen testing out camera on new phone
>Eric Roberts shows up
>'so, wheres the script?'

>>66741974

Unfrozen egg rolls and a used CD from Iron Maiden
