i was just mentioning elsewhere the george clooney & g should consider working together. george is another great actor turned director George and Gerry together would be amazing! I really hope soon will happen to see them working together Both are EXCELLENT actors, but with that being said, can you imagine the theater absolutely PACKED full of women! They'll have to do a good drama together that might draw the guys as well. I'm sure they could do a great action movie as well but I don't like car chases and shoot 'em ups. Give us all a good 'thinking' movie...uh...with a couple of towel scenes of course. Okay, I'll trade off one car chase for a towel scene. hee hee. Something outdoorsy? Or environmental? Or psychological? Something with grit, challenge, detemination, strength and courage. A movie that would make you think...wow, what would I do in that situation. Listening G & G???

I think Gerry may have to do some badass action movies for awhile to get the audience back. If not, he'll have to sign on to a movie that a real movie company is backing so it can be able to get some time in the theaters and make some money. Perhaps he will have to do movies with Clooney and other known actors. I think he's put himself in a vulnerable position. Producing his own movies has not gone well.
I do hope he finds a couple great scripts/roles to do in 2013 that will bring him back to the top.

Yes, he should work with director Kathryn Bigelow, she is making one critically acclaimed movie after another. Jessica Chastain is in her latest one Zero Dark Thirty. kathryn bigelow? is this the oscar winning director from 'the hurt locker'? wow. i must say indeed, good storytelling. she ranks top up there. i was just mentioning elsewhere the george clooney & g should consider working together. george is another great actor turned director (like mel gibson) and it looks like ben afflecks 'argon' debut will be another film to be reckoned. i love it when acters get behind the lens. ralph fiennes was awesome in his debut 'coriolanus'....i wonder if gerster will take himself behind the lens. he always struck me in the mini docs about the films he made to have a real handle and vision of the work.... Yes, she directed The Hurt Locker. Gerry could do any genre except one - romcoms. He has to stay away from those for a while.

This is actually a very good thread. Enjoyed reading this and it also made me realise that I never really belonged to the people that actually think about his career and want him to be successul whereas fans like me just watch the movies and comment on them later instead of really thinking about him and his choices, the background of all of his decisions. Anyway, what I really noticed after watching Gamers for example...I didn't like the plot and I was not really satisfied with the script...I didn't like the movie to be frank...but it didn't make me doubt Gerards acting talent. He's so talented, I feel like he wastes his talent on movies that do not 'deserve' him if this makes sense. I don't know if I am in the right position to say that but instead of flying back and forth to Madalina, he should stick around in the movie industry, do some mindmapping, have a coffee with his agent and talk everything through. He once said he already had the great success and is not seeking it anymore...I don't know why but I feel like he is tired and just wants to enjoy his private life more...I feel like he's now acting in movies to keep the money rolling in. If he would just get back to his old spirits...I am sure he CAN and he WILL. Like you guys already pointed out, he's a fighter!

I was reading in EW that it is more and more common to make more money internationally. And China is the fastest growing market. Superhero movies are still where the money is. March is the new July. So Gerry needs to make a superhero movie released in March and with an international release.

Could be inspired by but not limited to this list en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_superhuman_features_and_abilities_in_fiction

I also would rather see him chasing after a good script than chasing after MG. I don't think we have seen the best of him yet. I would be heart broken if he gives up on acting now. He has so much talent, please don't waste it, Gerry. Yes, a super hero movie would be great, preferable a franchise he can fall back on. Gerry in tights and cape.... or a super hero in kilt and Scottish accent, I am all for that!

He already has a super power, the ability to charm women into his bed. He also has the ability to gather women together who become giggly and goofy and love him so much that a forum was founded in his name. You know weirdly obsessed women gather super power. LMAO
