Ben Affleck and Matt Damon on "Air"

Ben Affleck and Matt Damon were kids when they met in Cambridge, Massachusetts; they were Hollywood rookies when they won an Oscar for their screenplay for "Good Will Hunting." And now, in their joint production company's first feature, they're back together on screen in "Air," the based-on-true-events story of how Nike created a basketball shoe around a talented but untried NBA rookie, Michael Jordan. Correspondent Tracy Smith talks with Affleck and Damon about their decades-long friendship, and about collaborating on a story of how heaven and earth were moved to sell a sneaker.

he seems bipolar

[@TL-nh2vr]

Ben is most likely a person that has deep spiritual battles (which is mostly a Blessing), and also, an introvert for the most part. So, when introverts express themselves when accompanied by a good solid friend or loved one, he is more safe and comfortable and can do so with more confidence than usual, and that can look "offish" or awkward...just my 2 cents..lol

I LOOOOVE the idea of actors equity. It's time the team that make movies happen see royalties and what they deserve to.

[@randomtees]

"Actors equity." What about human equity? These people are pushing a Nike propaganda film and streaming it on Amazon. Literally 2 of the worst companies in history. That movie was paid off the backs of underpaid, overworked foreigners. Starring 2 men whose career was made thanks to a known sex#al predator. This is seriously one of the most blatant examples of tone deaf American culture.

[@davidkelly790]

Would you have it both ways so if it tanks they have to pay? Also lower set fee's as well I assume?

[@HighwayLand]

Not all movies make money, and most movies are paid for by people who expect a return on investment. This equity sounds like a great idea, and I am not against it, but it's not feasible. The people who spend the millions of dollars for a movie deserve whatever money they get in return, and heck maybe 10% of the net earnings should go to the lead actors of the movie, but giving a percentage to the full and crew is just not possible. You can always have an employee owned entertainment company, but they would have to be the ones who pay the millions to make the movie happen, and good luck on making a profit.

[@JACKOTACO]

That's how and why United Artist was formed when Chaplin, Pickford and Griffith came together to give more power to the artist than the studio.

The Gospel: (I am not a bot, I'm just someone who enjoys spreading the gospel. Much love to you all!) The gospel is the good news that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for our sins and rose again, eternally triumphant over His enemies, so that there is now no condemnation for those who believe, but only everlasting joy. Peter says in 1 Peter 2:24, “He himself bore our sins in His body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness.” So Christ died not only to forgive sin, but also that it might die in the lives of His people. ~Quoting John Piper~ ALSO My friend put together a great PowerPoint about the Gospel and Jesus being the prophesied Messiah. I'd like to share if you're interested, just reply and I can send you the link. May Jesus Bless you!

@Billy, why do you call them “good” men? I don’t know about Matt, but Ben cheated on JLo and he cheated on Garner. And Ben is not doing a lot to make this a better world, considering the bucket loads of money he and his narcissist diva wife have. He is busy flying around in private jets on holiday next to the diva in her real fur coats, he is reportedly buying a 64 million dollar house with the diva. And it is thanks to Garner, not to Ben, that his children are doing fine despite the divorce from their mother and his alcoholism and him exposing them to the diva.

Love these guys. 7 Oscar nominations in 25 years between them, a dozen huge franchises, and wins for Best Screenplay and Best Picture - not even acting - overall. Real, true, committed filmmakers. In it for the long-haul. Look at how both spoke about the movie business a decade ago. Two decades ago. Three decades ago. They saw it coming and stuck with it through all the changes, still focusing on making great stuff together. I wish we had more of that.

[@arielsea9087]

Here we have Affleck’s ancestor. Yet here we have Hollywood virtue signaling. There was Cuffey, whose value was estimated at $500 in handwritten estate records still on file with the Chatham County probate court. There were Henry and James, valued at $1,000 apiece. And Robert and Becky, worth $600 as a couple. They were among 24 slaves willed to Benjamin L Cole with instructions to turn them over to his three sons once they reached adulthood. Evidence that Cole owned slaves drove Affleck to ask PBS and Harvard scholar Henry Louis Gates to remove his relative from a TV programme exploring Affleck’s family tree. After Affleck’s actions became public in April, the Argo actor and director identified the relative as Benjamin Cole on Twitter. A publicist for Affleck offered no further comment. The AP used historical public records to independently confirm that Cole was Affleck’s ancestor.
