Bruce Willis iChats

Our blog buddies over at Engadget put us onto this funny little tidbit. Apparently annoyed at some fans who doubted his identity (as "Walter B") while trolling a discussion forum on his forthcoming movie, Mr. Die Hard put up rather than shut up. Challenged to prove his identity Bruce Willis offered to video iChat one of the biggest doubters, who duly posted the evidence for everyone to see. Well it's good to see that when he's not saving the planet from terrorists, asteroids, or other baddies, Willis is willing to defend his artistic integrity in online forums with his Mac.

That's fucking hilarious. People make comments about celebrities thinking they are better and this guy(Bruce Willis) decides to chat with you guys for a bit and people start chastizing him for it! What the fuck. Even if it was to draw more attention to the fourth Die Hard coming out(which was great) who gives a shit, you got to talk to Bruce Willis right?

I don't really see the problem here.

Mark: Actually, I did read the story, I just didn't follow the link to the engadget story, which explains the iChat offer in further detail.

It is NOT photoshopped. I talked to Mr. Willis myself for 5-10 minutes on iChat AV. To my knowledge he talked to about 3-4 people on iChat before he asked me if there was a way to retract his mac.com address he had posted. I told him it'd be best to just ditch it if feasible. Crazy. Surreal. True.

"How does this imply that he has a mac?"

Because only poor people use PCs.

Looks like a photoshopped image.

Rather than Bruce Willis, I am more impressed that they actually got iChat to work with video. I can never get it working through firewalls and we are forced to use skype instead.

Justin -- Because if you read the story rather than skimmed it, you'd see that Bruce actually specifically identifies the capability as iChat (several times in the same post - even refers to his IM address as his "iChat address") which other OS users simply don't do. It's quite clear he's a Mac user. (See "Wait just a second" by Walter B, May 9th, 2007)
