From hasbeen to desperate hasbeen!

i,hope it works and i, wish him well.
I used to be his agent….all I have to say is UNWARRANTED SUPER INFLATED SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT
A LIST ATTITUDE WITH A Z LIST REALITY……boy oh boy….
how'd he pay for that???
This horrible that it has come to this. Not being focused….. All of you, take note.
Holy crap!
are you willing to audition now or do you still expect to work on offers??? Are you willing to EARN your way back after you proved yourself unreliable all those years ago or expect a hand out?
are you ready to grow up and take accountability for your actions and your alienating diva-ish behavior? Are you ready to be an adult?
He has meth face!
Perez…………….
At least he's now a flowncing never will be like you ~ !
Corey's love seems to be acting. He fell in to an early life of drugs and trouble. He deserves every right to try show biz again. Imagine those of you that audition over and over again as "not yet" famous people, trying to audition as someone that had their chance and made childish choices as a CHILD. It's got to be tough. I say good luck Corey. I loved you in the 80's and I will love you even more sober. Pick good roles or it will be a short lived comeback. Stay clean. Stay strong.
I LOVE COREY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He is trying to work it! Leave him alone ! If he gets hired….good for him. You are the Z list.
Eh, he's still way hotter than Perez will ever be.
Good for him! Humble and courageous. Instead of knocking him down, people should praise him because how many people would have the guts to put an ad out like that?
:) YAY COREY!
I thought only 10 year old girls dotted their I's with hearts….
corey,corey, corery, just marry me……I loved you thru all the shitty movis and ay little comeback…..ALL in the mame of LOVE!!!! dont call the cops…i loooooove him!!!!!!!!
Forget about him. He's a faded celebrity desperately trying to hang on to fame. Talk about me, I'm having a baby!
i sw him in something recently on TV and he was awful. I wanted to see him do well….hoped hed make a good comeback but when i saw him, i realized he had lost all that he had had years ago. Theres nothing left…..he doesnt even look good on camera anymore.
If he could be picked up for a flm or a tv gig, that would be proof to me that ANYONE can do it……….
there wasnt ANY magic at all……………..he needs to consider another line of work, i woud suggest.
Maybe he could do some security guard jig ala Gary Coleman…errr stomp feet or something! lol
Good for you Corey. You are taking this into your own hands. All the power to you my friend…
give him a chance - our country is about new beginnings. i friggin love this guy, c'mon, he was the kid in lost boys…
Who cares if he's a has been….I'd still do him! :0)
I REMEMBER BACK IN THE 80s WHEN HE WAS ON TOP OF THE WORLD
WHAT A TRAGEDY THAT HE HAS TO RESORT TO DOING THIS.
I GUESS WHEN YOU HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO FALL BACK ON YOU TRY TO GET YOUR OLD JOB BACK
SOOO SAD
I WOULDN'T BE SUPRISED IF HE IS THE NEXT ACTOR WHO ODs OR KILLS HIMSELF
Give the guy a break! Would you rather he OD on herion or prescription drugs? At least he's trying.
I can't believe that fucking asshole and I share a name. He's an embarrassment to Cory's everywhere. I have to say that The Lost Boys was a great movie, but I can't honestly think of one other good movie he was ever in. They were all crap. Dream a Little Dream, Lucas, The Dream Machine… those are probably the best known, and they all sucked. Blown Away was pretty terrible, and by the time he got to Dream a Little Dream 2, he was way past his expiration date. Why can't HE accept this and just go back to his homeland (i.e., Canada) and be a Canadian celebrity; it's not nearly as hard to do that as it is in America, and he could probably live comfortably and make a nice living doing shitty Canadian TV shows and TV movies. Honestly, what American movie studio is going to say "Oh, hold everything; he's back, and he's ready to work! Someone get him on the phone so we can offer him 3 picture deal!!!". If he really did post that ad, he's fucking delusional. It's over, dude. Accept it. Move on.
Re: Art Vandelay – Are you an importer/exporter???
Was Going To To Be In The New Lost Boys: The Tribe….But He Back Out
Guess what - this guy was - is - a little hot ass exciting little actor, in a comedic vein - I don't think, Corey, you had to resort to this. You, darling, are still 100% hot and marketable - you have talent, you amuse. If this is what you want to do, do it.
Corey Haim Was Offer A Small Part In The New Lost Boys:The Tribe Movie Along With Corey F….But Back Out Due To Visa And I think He Didn't Like How Much Of Part He Had In The Movie…But Corey F Is Still In It And The Other Frog Brother Too….But I Wish He Would Have Taken The Role,Because Some Part Is Better Then No Part And It Would Have Got His Face Out There Again….But I Love You Corey Haim Anyways….No Matter What People Say About You!
pathetic!
I feel bad for him.
Why shouldn't be be allowed to work?
He is willing to start over & humble himself. Hope he gets something.
He's not so destitute people , do you know that this ad , if it's a full page ad in Variety ran at least eight grand ??If he can shell out 8,000 + to place this ad , he's not as poor as you may think …
i'm embarrassed. seriously. i just died for him.
He and Corey Feldman should do a porno together
My best wishes to him… everybody deserves a second chance… good luck Cory! and Gos Bless…
Hey, lay off everyone. He deserves a break because he CAN act like a lot of the greats from the 80's…unlike today. So good for him for self advertising and hopefully someone in that biz will give him a chance. Good luck Corey, and yes I'm a child who grew up during the 80's and I was a fan then and I am one now. People had to have talent to work then and now that is not the case. You go Corey!
I love that kid. He's still adorable and he can act. The problem is no one will talk to him anymore. I don't mean he can't get a job. I mean, literally, no one will talk to him. Not in Hollywood. He could try NY, but I think he pissed off everbody there even worse. Plus, whenever he gets money he tries to obliterate himself with drugs. I dunno, maybe he could talk to a merchandiser and sell something on HSN. Poor sweetie.
remember the lost boys? i'm old now… 29… but those were the days…

In 2001 my best friend and I went to a comic book convention to meet Cory Haim. My friend asked him to be her date to our highschool Senior Ball. Cory said he couldn't make it as he was going to be busy filming a movie. Crushed. Cory Feldman was also expected to attend the convention but he was a no-show.
Hey dude I have an idea!! Since you are so desperate, why don´t you become a celebrity paparazzi and go follow britney around? I think you will be the first "celebrity paparazzi" and who knows, you might even become her boyfriend or something.
PS. I hear she has alot of booze and drugs lying around
Re: Sam –
dude your not kidding. Sam you win the prize. lets take off the hollywood mask - if he is jewish he has no problem getting work again, however wasn't Dustin Diamond jewish? Avenu Malkenu!
I used to have a huge crush on him. He looks great now, way better than he has in years……go Corey!
Perez stop being so rude oh wait nevermind you make money that way. Idiots like myself come here but mostly for the pics who knows how many are photoshopped. Washed up? try looking in the mirror.
Re: brittany –
Why are you the fucking crew leader, He still has been in multiple movies. yEA LIKE HE IS GOING TO FLIP BURGERS IDIOT.
Re: blah blah blah lost boys –
You will rot in hell for your horrible thoughts even if its half joking it is waay wrong. I am not religious but I truly believe in the dark side and you are on your way.
That's just dumb. No one will touch him after that, AND he just wasted all that money too.
his signature looks so shaky… like he was trembling when he wrote it. it's pretty pathetic, but at last he's trying!
Cory who? OK, maybe I live under a rock, but I have never even heard of him…. maybe his "fame" never extended beyond the US??
well…. Perez seems that he's worthy of your attention—– your just as desperate as him it seems.
perez,
it was very mean to file this under "Z list". the man is suffering; i would say the last thing that is important is what "list" he is on.
Corey, you need to get a hair cut, a facial, a manicure, a designer suit with all of the accessories, slim down and get a photo taken of yourself not looking like a druggie sitting in a high school gym. Try looking your age and like a professional and maybe you'll get noticed. That picture may not be a 'stunt' but it sure looks like a joke. Try looking like a leading man next time if what you want is to work. You may also want to go on a detox diet and go to the dermatologist and get on a good skin care regime. The drugs have taken their toll. I got it, you need the queer eye guys for a month.
We all deserve a second chance. I wonder if he is really broke? How much do you think an ad in Variety costs?
hot
ill say it again, Corey your HOT
This is so sad. I use to be in love with this guy way, way back in the day and now he has resorted to this. Talk about desperate. I feel sorry for the guy.
He could not even get the script right on his "reality" show. He blew on that show and will blow in anything else that is thrown his way.
How sad!
The 80's called and told you so!!!!
Did anyone notice the cig. in his hand..
Nervous?
Should we put him on the 2008 death list?
I wonder what the odds would be?
I need HELP!!
Should I put money on Cory in the 2008 death pool?
I am sad for him. This is so pathetic I can't say anything mean about him.
It would be like taking a lazer pen away from a retarded kid. What do you do?
*shaking my head*
Who the fuck is this guy? Never heard of him. And how big was his movie of his that i never heard of it before?
so very sad…why can't he go on auditions like everyone else?
i think he looks great. it's nice to see some humility instead of arrogance in hollywood. it takes guts to do something like this. i hope he makes it.
i'm so tired of the constant trashing of people on the internet.
I love him..I hope he makes it.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRR
well, he can always get pooped out the bottom rung of the porn industry…which is eventually what happens. maybe he should try a regular day job.
Re: Becky – BIIIIIIIITTTTCCCCCCHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
Honestly, we're supposed to feel sorry for him but you know what? He had tons of money, opportunities and fame and he squandered it all like an ass. And it wasn't because of something he did once or just when he was a kid, it's shit he did over and over for years. While the rest of us were at WORK every day just to pay our rent. If he's really got his crap together he should probably realize that 99% of teen stars face reality and get real jobs because what made them hot in the first place (being young and cute) is long gone. Become a drug counselor if you're so cleaned up and ready to work. Help someone else for a change.
PEREZ IF YOU MADE IT HE CAN FOR SURE MAKE IT AGAIN!
THIS GUY IS NOT TOO BAD HE WAS THE ONLY ONE TO ME LAUGH ON THEIR NEW SHOW..
He is in the middle of filming the second season of 'The two corey's" right now.
I'm happy for him and I hope he has a bright and happy future.
Wow what an idiot! I used to think he was cute in the 80's, now I think he is an idiot.
major cute
Re: Truffle Shuffle – Not hardly, A&E inexplicably picked up "The Two Coreys" for a second season last week.
Also:
Haim is currently filming his scenes in Lost Boys 2.
Perez is real up on things huh?
He was such a cutie when he was younger, but now, not so much! Good luck to him though. He was a good actor back in the days…maybe he's still got it????…..
omg this is sad for many reasons:
1) he looks like a bum on the corner
2) he is smoking the ass of his ciggarette
3) he signed his name with a fruity giant dot at the i
4) his signature looks like its from 4th grade when ur just learning how to write cursive
5) he should be using that cord to hang himself and end the misery
haha where the fuck is he? on the side of the homeless shelter?
I say go for it. Everyone deserves a second chance!!!!!
It is sad. Sad that people are so mean. Geez give the buy a break. He was a talented kid and I'm sure he still has the ability to act. His life was consumed by additction for a long time and now he wants to get back to work. Maybe it has been forever and maybe this is a bit desperate but I would like to see someone give him a chance. I want to see what he can do.
Did the vampires inject him with huge globs of fat? Fuck him. Give me Feldman instead, even during the MJ phase. We lose a talent like Heath Ledger, but this tool is around still, trying to get work? FUCK HIM!
Better to see an actor who has learned his lesson and appreciates the work than the spoiled, immature princes and princesses today who think they deserve everything. A humble actor-how rare and refreshing!!! I hope he makes it back!
Hollywood, wake up and recognize! Corey is back, better than ever! He's multi-talented and gorgeous!
Um. It's sort of a cardinal rule to not fuck with 80's stars. We grew up on that shit. I still love all of them.
he's trying to come back and do something good for himself. why are you so cruel. shut up. he's trying. there's nothing pathetic in wanting to work. he's probably more honest than you and deserve more than you.
Posing beside a brick wall and having a burning cigarette in your hands does not instil a fresh start in the minds of the public.
Also, having a closed circle over the letter i in your signature denotes someone who is insecure.
Why are people making fun of this? It is actually a good idea! There are some bitter people in this board. Good lord!
I love you Corey Haim!!!!!!
I would totally go see a new movie with Corey Haim in it. He's a cutie forsure. Stop being such a Hater Perez. Geeezz!
SSSSSSSSAAAAAAAADDDDDDDD
He makes a cute twink
I'll give him a job. It involves sucking my cock all the way down to the balls until I fill up his stomach. God Bless!
Jews aren't even human..
ALL YOU PEOPLE NEED TO GET A LIFE….
HE'S AN ACTOR..WHAT DO YOU DO..SIT AT YOUR COMPUTER AND WAIT TO SEE WHAT PEREZ IS GOING TO SAY NEXT…
AND PLEASE HAIM WAS AND STILL IS THE BETTER LOOKING ONE!
F OFF
Holy Mother of God, help us!!!! Well I guess without losers in the world there would be no winners. Thank you Corey for making me glad I am not you. By the way Perez, love you, love you, love you!
He is a fellow man, show him empathy, and aide him when he needs it. Sending food to starving people, or replenishing dignity to those who have fallen are no different: they help your fellows to stay alive and thrive in this world. If we can't rely on help from each other, then from whom?
Foster caring and understanding, rather than keeping society's pecking order thriving!
Has anyone considered that he's out of work for a reason? People,people, people! He sucked ass as an actor when he was clean! Do you think that after clouding his brain on drugs for the last fifteen years is going to improve his acting ability, or lack of thereof. He's gone, and he'll not be back. If he had any healthy brain cells left, he'd realize that getting an education and a real job is his only option now. Grow some 'nads for Christ's sake.
ewwwwwwwwww
I hope someone gives him a chance to do some more bad acting again someday.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! What a fucking loser. Oh my god. Who fucking does that! He has now become the most washed up desperate loser in all of Hollywood. I almost feel sorry for him.
I don't care if he was shootin up and snortin crack cocaine in the pic.I still love me some COREY!!!
too bad he was a great actor in the 80s
I would love to see him back in the movies. He was so funny in a lot of what he did. I believe in giving people another chance and see where it goes. We all make mistakes!
Then get a real job and get on with your life.
