Shia is so underrated as an actor. The guy is a genius at what he does.

[@AlexxSupra]

He is not an underrated actor, nobody ever said he is a bad actor, all the conflict was related to his own behaviour. He is definetly one of the best actors, in my opinion, and a good person.

[@EHISH]

HAHAHAHAH HES A FUCKING JUNKY

[@THEDOORIZCLOSED]

he chose to be underrated but if you look at his filmography, practically everything he did had positive reviews and his performances have always been critically acclaimed.

[@mikecee6938]

He has soooo much more to offer and his authentic growth in film has been bar none, he will be and is one of the greatest of our generation underrated maybe but I’m sure it’s more out there like us we need to do our part and support him at every opportunity..... he is and artist artttist!

There's not much you can ask an actor

[@ImSoGonzo]

I actually watched/listened to the whole 24 hour #ELEVATE project. This ended up becoming deeper than I would of imagined. It's interesting to hear people who you can imagine are quite shy dive right into a real conversation with Shia, who's a celebrity and a stranger to them. There's also the whole dynamic community that forms in the line while waiting where people are coming in as groups where they became friends while waiting. Thats rad. I've been on a Shia youtube bender and it's official, the dude is cool as fuck, down to earth, passionate, and just straight up real. He's made some mistakes but who hasnt? He owns up to them, learns from them, and tries to better himself. When its all said and done thats what really matters. Props to Shia man, big fan from here on out.

[@TheSangson]

[@meganmoore4526]

I've done the exact same thing the past few days, absolute Shia KZbin bender also and now absolutely believe that I'm meant to know him on some level, somehow. I'm not one for celebrity or crushes etc but everything you mentioned about him above is correct. Cool as fuck and genuine. You ever get that feeling about a person and you don't know what it is but it feels like magnetism maybe? Something pulling you in? And I don't say that lightly about any person hardly ever. Whatta dude!

[@darlapeelman1610]

@@meganmoore4526 agree, he has super powerful magnetism. Im fascinated by him, interesting and intelligent man. He struggles with impulsivity, anger issues, which he has often displayed publicly in a big way, actually more recognized for bizarre outbursts than for his films to some degree. Yet despite his history of poor choices and bad behavior, he continues to strive to better himself, seeks atonement. Obviously he's done some dickhead deeds, more than a bit of an asshole, but his soul....his soul is fucking precious.❤️🔥😎

[@abhouston1]

The best part was when shia asked how much a seat cost.

[@chigginW]

The question of 'how did you stay focused in your career as a lot of other child actors have gone off the rails?' Was a question and answer that moved me because I rode in an elevator once with Shia, it was just him and I. We were two kids at the Beverly Hecht agency. I remember him asking me 'what's wrong with your dad?' At the time I kind of pretended I didn't know what he was talking about but that's because I was acting out of fear and did not want to mention the issue. My dad was an angry tyrant many times, Shia saw this. I remember coffee being thrown at the windshield once driving 90 miles an hour on the freeway on the way to the set. It was rather stressful, and his view on my father made it clear that others might be thinking the same thing, which I believe ultimately ended up with my situation as an actor being jeopardized. During the #imsorry piece I got in my van in the bay area the night I heard about it because I only had one day to make it, but there was so much dense fog and I was falling asleep at the wheel, I also had a torn ACL in my right knee and heard when I woke up that the lines took hours, and couldn't be standing for very long. I would have loved to see him but just couldn't make it. If you happen to see this Shia please shoot me a message.

[@levihayes5775]

P Wam just now watching this video and read this, I know it’s 3 years late obviously but I hope you’re able to talk to him one day

[@nelsonvarela-tavares8224]

Shia is a an absolute legend and a great actor - fact!

[@youtubenatan]

The ending was fricking amazing, and should be done more in our society. I understand exactly what Shia is talking about when he expresses himself about the awkwardness of these situations and everyone being or trying to be "politically correct." I hate when I go somewhere, and people have these expectations and other ways of acting different or not quite being themselves around other people or crowds. I think we all put on a facade and do not take their mask off around others because they are scared to speak like Shia is speaking now. Break the walls of fear down by all means. It keeps society sick. I can relate absolutely with this man. Just do it already. You said that you were going to do it yesterday, now it's today, quit waiting, and just do it!

[@god5535]

I pulled me dick out hence.

[@nieshaperry5019]

when Shia said he was lonely I got sad :( his eyes are so big I felt like I could see why he asked the question... poor guy :(

[@morduk87]

+Niesha Perry I'm not that surprised that he admits to feel lonely. Having to be on the spotlight for most of his life, always having to be somebody else can't be too good for your self awareness, and... I don't know, I can relate to him, and it where kinda scary to see how long it took for people to raise their hand when asked. I myself have been too focused on my education that I got hit with a cocktail of frustration, stress and loneliness, which made it hard for me to do my work, since I work with Graphic design, I need to be able to play and have fun with the subject to get the best result. I'm still lonely, but I got most of it under control recently and I'm starting to "let people in" so to say :)

[@Ajox191]

Poor celebrities : (

[@THEDOORIZCLOSED]

He legit wanted to know where all the lonely people come from and if he was the only one. I hope he's doing better now. Thats crazy af cuz he was married at the time and had Nastja and Luke, and maybe a few other friends and yet he was still lonely :O. Again, I hope things have changed for the better for him. He never responds to fan stuff on say twitter or something so we never really know what he's up to :/

[@Tilly236]

If you've had trauma in your childhood the brain wires up differently, you can feel completely disconnected no matter how many people are around you. You just feel separate. Talking from experience here. It's a horrible thing and I feel for him.

[@firecrakka]

I think it aligns with his comment on often his interactions are a "take" Being in the position he is in there would always be that underlying doubt of peoples intentions within any relationship. Another reason he allows himself to be vulnerable within his art being that he remains guarded outside of it. Leading to his sense on loneliness. This is not something completely exclusive to celebrity of course, which is why I think he asks the audience.

[@kumaxtalk]

Interesting how the trio on stage seemed to be looking for a kind of natural conversation between them and the audience but turned out to be some confusion from the audience regarding that.. like it wasn’t clicking to them that it wasn’t some sort of lecture or seminar where you listen and take notes more something you feel with the speakers that was intended to transcend speaker listener dynamic and create something organic from that experience, in the form of art. Like it’s vulnerability in the form of art, what you create from that vulnerability, for Shia I felt it wasn’t just emotion but what it means to him not to just mope around and run his mouth about feelings but how we share that unspoken thing. It would’ve been great to hear more questions regarding his work and him as a person since he connects in different levels of himself not in just a one dimensional way. Which is what you get a lot of in that industry he’s in, also says a lot about people in that educational climate where realness is so alien when confronted with it you’re suddenly speechless and reduced to this vague understanding of self and what it means to be human. I mean Shia really attacks you with it, who you are and why people do what they do.. he’s real it’s just hard for people living in this materialistic world to be on board with

[@LeezPgh]

Also Shia is a struggling on going Alcoholic whom on occasions beats his Female Partners. And in private life is highly Aggressive and abusive to the people around him.. Hence l personally found you're comment as some what sickofantic and nieve. Just saying.

[@OMAR-vq3yb]

@@theboywithathorninhisside.4179 What's your point? The comment was written five years ago. He or she is likely a young adult---we all were fans of someone at that age. I think the problem here is that you want to demolish Shia to make yourself feel better about yourself. Shia has issues and he's seeking help. It doesn't excuse what he did, but let's not pretend that any of this is shocking, nor does it invalidate the work that he did here. Artists are notorious for struggling with their mental health and having substance abuse issues and significant trauma. Hopefully all parties recover and the victims get the sort of resolve that they need.

he's just a normal guy like everyone else. The world has to realize "celebrities" are people trying to make a living just like us... maybe it's because I live in Hollywood. Californians understand. Just let them be... it's when we treat them like some other species is when they start to feel weird

[@TruthAplomado]

+POOpStiNkPiE I think Celebs see themselves as god-likes because "fans" look up to them and greets them for the accomplishements ( shia refered about something like creating his own religion ) EXACTLY, he is creating his own artistic religion and with that a huge amount of followers that believe in him and his religion

[@LeanneMustafa]

14:40 so beautifully well said, Shia. Words to live by. :)

[@rednaxelA11]

the hopefulness in Shia to reclaim Shia the person at the expense of Shia the icon is wonderful, but the clear fact that he will never be able to do that is tragic. And yet, in striving to do so we get to see the value of sincerity in spite of cynicism. This is where humanity is at - we are missing a key piece of ourselves and that is the piece of humanity that longs for honesty of thought and communication.

[@TonjeRichards]

I knew very little about Mr LaBeouf himself, and when I watched the live footage of him casually meeting and talking to random members of the British public, in such an intimate place i thought It was a nice introduction to the real Shia... From Shia himself. I love this unusual way of expressing emotions :-) but then I'm unusual myself Ha Ha...

[@BurnedTrashcan]

I have no idea who that girl is but she is absolutely lovely... both to hear and to look at. 🙃 Shia is a totally interesting dude, and it's cool to be able to hear this convo. I never know when his live thingys are happening... down side of not having any social media I guess. 😅

[@skaterbecke]

I love the idea of using the audience as part of the performance and without them it wouldn't work. My dance performance was very much like this in my second year of university. Everything they did, reacted a different response out of me and in a way I think Shia is doing this.

[@TruthAplomado]

+skaterbecke I think all what Shia doing is trying to find himself and ourselves too. We fall for what is different and we fear what we don't understand. He is trying to create an army of followers ( believers ), he is creating his own religion in a very artistic way. This guy is a genius.

[@skaterbecke]

I think everybody takes away something different from it. I really liked that as an actor, he wasn't just on stage, on tv or film, but he was trying out performance art and questioning 'what is an audience?' and 'do they make the performance/does it work without them'? I really like that he is challenging boundaries of performance. #performingartstudent

[@TruthAplomado]

skaterbecke of course there is no art without audience, performance completes the audience and vice versa.

[@skaterbecke]

But could there be art without audience? Could a performance happen without an audience? If not, what if the performers were the audience?

[@TruthAplomado]

Then it will be for one purpose only : discovering yourself. Why do you think people study sociology? They put themselves in the other's shoes. A doctor doesn't look at you the same way a lawyer does. Sometimes the audience are artists themselves, it is a "put yourself in the other's shoes" situation. Maybe a magician performing the trick would look impressive to you, but another magician wouldn't be as much surprised as the normal audience because he reads beyond the "text" ( text = meaning = movie = music = art piece )

[@missie.ann.317]

My opinion of using hashtags is that it is much like using a "channel" number-if you were to want to watch a TV show (say, American Horror Story) you would know what channel to go to in order to watch it. With hashtags today, people can search what ever "channel" they want on any social media site, use the # in front of whatever "show" they want to see. It's the modern TV channel guide, basically.

Usually the required reading was whatever we wanted to read. Likewise he says that he doesn't like political artwork so he wouldn't of picked that book in the first place.
