I think Ian in complaining that Boone, the character, isn't as skilled as Ian, the actor.
Oooh, got it. Thanks, Jon.

Somerhalder certainly seemed unable to discern the line between acting and sincerely performing his character's actions in The Rules of Attraction. Given that, perhaps in future taking roles that don't involve gay or incestuous relationships (or both!) might be a smart plan.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Oh, just wanted to note that I laughed out loud at the step-seduction, and said "HODGEBERRIES! IT'S THE HODGEBERRY SCENE!"
Snerk.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Everything I've read from the guy's own mouth strikes me as... not unintelligent, exactly, but having the same vibe as a 13 year-old with an advanced vocabulary and absolutely no understanding of other people or how the world works. Dude better thank his lucky stars he's pretty.
This, exactly. He's dumb and pretty.

This, exactly. He's dumb and pretty.
He sounds almost borderline sociopathic, but that's not all that rare in young Hollywood actors from what I've read. Usually they keep it out of their interviews, though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Boone's relief at Shannon's death read perfectly valid reaction to getting out from under someone's thumb you're not strong enough to free yourself from.
I think being weak enough to sleep with Shannon when you think it's wrong is one thing. Weak enough for that to deepen your thrall? Man, Locke will own him forever. Locke will probably be able to delegate Boone-mastership to Walt, for christ's sake.

Or Vincent. Or possibly a volleyball.

Or Vincent.
I thought he was the one telling Locke what to do already?
