Was watching Stand by Me the other day and it got me wondering.
Would River Phoenix be a big star if he didn't die or would he be on Celebrity Fit Club?
And how popular would his brother be, would it have changed anything?

He would be just like Brittney.

There would not be enough cocaine in all of South America to keep him supplied.

He would have left the country after GWB stole the election.  Hanging out with the Baldwins....

He probably would have paralleled Keanu Reeves' career --- occasional big films with lots of duds in between.

My guess is that if he were alive today, he would be clawing at the inside of his casket screaming "let me out!".

Fucked up nutbag that he is, Joaquin is a better actor than River ever was.

if he was alive today, he'd OD tomorrow.

Who cares?

He was an overpaid actor who couldn't handle his fame and fortune and drowned them in booze and drugs until he ODed and died.

Guess I don't spend much time thinking of River Phoenix.  However, when I do, I think of a life wasted.

Celebrities are modern day court jesters. They have no useful skills so they pretend to be things they aren't for money.
Nothing more than fools.
I couldn't care less about them or their pathetic lives.

He was good in Sneakers and Stand By Me.  I really liked Little Nikita when I was young, but I don't know how I'd like it now.  Probably a little too cheesy.

He had a lot of good roles for someone so young.  He was on his way to becoming a big star, I think.  Too bad he fell into drugs.  What a waste.

If he could have stayed away from the arm poision, I'd bet he'd be in Leo's place in the food chain, doing it much better.

I think he'd be morbidly obese like what happened to Brando.

Never seen Stand By Me?  If not, you're in for a treat.  Great flick.
