Did any of the 60 Minutes reporters tell Mark to "Say hi to your mother for me"?

What a transformation from Marky Mark to Mark Wahlberg, actor and producer.

I didn't realize how dedicated he was to making a film about his sports hero, Mickey Ward.

I dont know if if is really a transformation or not. He is just a really talented dude.
He could still go back and be a singer/rapper right now there is just not the audience for it anymore. I remember seeing a special on MTV about him and his brother one time. Donnie wanted him to join TNKOTB and Mark wasnt having it, he thought they were a bunch of sissies!

Mark is a solid actor, I don't know about great, but he's solid. The Departed was like the perfect role for him, but outside of it, he's had plenty of misses. A good "tough guy" actor, though. I hate the idea of him as Mickey Ward, he looks so miscast, and that movie all together just looks bad aside from Bale probably pulling a great performance out of the brother character.

The Happening was probably his best performance, IMO.

Best. Movie. Ever.

Did they touch on his hate crime at all?

They didn't say anything about a hate crime, only that he put some guy's eye out.

Is my sarcasm radar on the fritz or are you serious?

Didn't see this anywhere, so I thought here was a good spot...

Mark as Drake actually seems like a pretty good fit

Re: Mark Wahlberg On 60 Minutes Tonight

I was hoping for a bit of a younger guy for the role, perhaps even "more attractive" (in a way that the female lead would more convincingly fall for him). Maybe Chris Pine or Chris Evans.

More attractive?

Mark Wahlberg is a fine human brainy.

Well, I can understand that. Wahlberg is a bit older and more "tough guy" than the role requires, I think.

I could maybe buy Chris Evans (for the sarcasm aspect) but I don't know if he's believable enough in the toughness department for me...a bit too goofy.

I don't see Chris Pine at all.

As for attractiveness, I'll leave you to your opinion on that....not a concern for me
