Bald-wind ruined “The Flintstones” Poor Barney rolled over in his Ice Age coffin.
One of the best comment threads in a long time, a little lighter than usual for Christmas, nice…..but no matter what, Costner screwed Baldwin, if the allegations are true.
Let’s see..Baldwin is broke and suing. Now, who signed over his shares to Costner? Oh that’s right, it was Baldwin. I suppose Costner tied him to a chair and made him watch Waterworld 1000 times to break him. No? Case closed. Costner wins.
Well…. not if Costner hid material information from a major shareholder. That’s a big no-no.
It’s easy for him. He’s Daniel Baldwin brother.
Daddy said you can lose everything but your talent. Oh, wait…
what kind of moron doesnt know that costner was paid 52 million! u are all fools who dont know recongnize peeps our culture!
I’m shocked at the number of people attacking Costner for having developed and sold a technology that cleans the water from oil spills. Regardless of the merit of the law-suit, when did it become unAmerican to invent something useful and sell it for a profit? Crazy!!!
Costner’s Best Acting performance in his entire career was “The Big Chill”.
lol nice drop. . . That role proved he was born with a receding hair line. . .
and its better than Anything Baldwin has ever done.
At least KC is busy not making movies. He can’t act his way outta a mens room.
As if “Help I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here” and “Celebrity Apprentice” weren’t enough. Stevie B has found another way to get back in the news : ( Stop tarnishing my memory of you in Bio Dome. . .
Baldwin is one of the least talented people in the acting industry. I don’t believe for once second that what he is claiming happened. He is so broke he sold his shares and now regrets it.
are you all reading the same thing I am? Baldwin and his partner were PAID 18 million, and now they are suing because they didnt get 2 million more…. greedy if you ask me
This is just further proof that MTV needs to bring back Celebrity Death Match…would love to see these two go at it.
“ ‘Kevin has spent 15 years and $24 million of his own money on this technology, and we have spent over $1 million more than that on adjusting the machines and preparing them for testing,’ said Costner’s business partner, Louisiana attorney John Houghtaling…..Ocean Therapy (Costner’s company) officials acknowledged that full implementation of the systems may depend on how quickly BP pays for the 32 it committed to Wednesday. The company’s largest machine – the V20 — sells for about $500,000, an amount Costner suggested “is a potato chip to a giant oil company like BP..If all goes according to plan, Costner and Houghtaling said they hope to sell as much of the oil reclaimed by their machines as possible, and donate 80% of the proceeds to parishes struggling to cope with fouled marshlands and devastated fisheries.”
