Sometimes, we think Shia LaBeouf really needs to learn to keep his mouth shut. "The Transformers" star says he's leaving big-budget movies behind in favor of indies -- and as usual, he manages to insult everyone along the way.

"I'm done," the 26-year-old tells The Hollywood Reporter. "There's no room for being a visionary in the studio system. It literally cannot exist. You give Terrence Malick a movie like 'Transformers,' and he's f---ed. There's no way for him to exist in that world."

Of the big studios, he adds that they "give you the money, then get on a plane and come to the set and stick a finger up your a-- and chase you around for five months."

Despite his loose lips, Shia tells the magazine that he "deeply regrets" his negative comments about "Indiana Jones," which offended Steven Spielberg. "He told me there's a time to be a human being and have an opinion, and there's a time to sell cars," he recalls. "It brought me freedom, but it also killed my spirits because this was a dude I looked up to like a sensei."

    Nowhere in my comment did I mention her cheating. Why? Because I frankly just don't care. But since I'm being brought into this, 'cheating' is not a part of the 'life cycle'. Kristen Stewart aside, if you really believed you were supposed to be with someone, you wouldn't kiss, cheat, or have relations someone else when you know it would hurt your significant other. And the fact that Kristen did it in a public place, knowing her high-profile status, concludes that she wanted to be caught. In my opinion, the director guy did more wrong than she did seeing as he has a family. In any case, my comment was about her non-believable acting, not her personal life, so why don't you suck on that?

    So! Shia LaBeouf thinks he's a "Visionary". Good for him! If he wants movies with vision, Hollywood is probably the last place to be. They make Movies in Hollywood to make money. They made "Transformers" in Hollywood. Not exactly a 'deeply intellectual' Movie.

    Okay first of all, whoever says Ryan Gosling needs to go and punch themselves in the face.

    Also, I've never liked Shia LaBeouf....ever...

    Shia put his foot in it a bit but he does regret insulting someone he looked up to. I bet he was having a bad day. I think he's a fantastic actor and it was evident way back on 'Even Steven's'. He probably wants more control in the film process. On that note, who the hell am I to speak for him? But Alec Baldwin has no appeal for me anymore. That's why I picked him.

    At least we still have a sense of humor; unlike hateful leftists who over-compensate for their lack of substance with hate-filled rhetoric and race-baiting.

    I was not trying to talk smack, just noticing we say the same things about each other, the two sides.
    I will give you one thing, Barbara Streisand is ghastly, but, to be fair, I think she embarrasses most liberals. It is like Jane Fonda, no one wants her representing them. I always figured Palin embarrassed most Conservatives.
  • biggerman addie 2012/08/20 03:02:19 (edited)

    Actually - I like her. I didn't think she was a very good VP choice - too shrill and inexperienced. But, she was pretty; she was also the kind fo girl that a lot of guys would like; good sense of humor; strong opinions, she could hold her own with the guys; it is just that the liberal media is ruthless and they hated her and when the liberal media hates you, they will try to destroy you. Look what they are trying to do to Romney and Ryan. Oh - Susan Sirandon is not looking too classy in that dress either.

    Why'd you have to bring that Palin BITCH into it. She's NOT pretty, she is EVIL...SATAN'S MISTRESS OBVIOUSLY. No one has to "do anything" to R&R, their record speaks for itself. The enlightened "libs" just show you republitards what's already there to see if you just OPEN YOUR EYES!
  • Republi... addie 2012/08/20 16:38:40

    Too bad that Palin had to come into a celeb fun poll and get "bigger man" (now there's a joke) to defend her. She makes ya sick, physically ill.
