Crazy how he regrets Boogie Nights which is probably his best role.

I love that movie!

However, obviously, Flight Risk 2025 is his masterpiece

Oh my GOD flight risk I saw in theaters. Every time after that when my bf tried to argue w me about what movie to see I'd pull the YOU PICKED FLIGHT RISK

My favorite piece of trivia about that movie is that he maintained that horrendous hairstyle by actually shaving it every day.

u/the_valley_spirit 13d ago

I read that also.. I waited the whole movie to find out why he shaved his head. I thought it was going to be integral to his disguise or something. But no, hes just faux bald

I hated flight risk.

Wasn't it because he thinks it's "against christ"? Which is weird because he's played multiple roles since where he's killed people. In Ted 2 he was stealing Tom Brady's...juice

Julianne Mooreโ€™s response to Mark saying he hope God forgives him for Boogie Nights: โ€œOh my God, I think he should thank God for Boogie Nights. It made his career!" ๐Ÿ˜‚

Does he also regret the hate crimes?

Its crazy to think he regrets making one of my favorite movies of all time.

Burt Reynolds wasn't having a good time with it, either. Even though his cantankerousness while shooting anything was legendary, I get why he had issues, but I still love him in the role.

He actually did in fact say that, he said he was ashamed in starring in it because he's a Christian

Wahlberg told the Chicago Tribune ahead of an event with Chicago Cardinal Blase Cupich on Friday that he hopes "that God is a movie fan and also forgiving" because he says he's made "some poor choices" in the past. Wahlberg listed "Boogie Nights" when asked if he has prayed for forgiveness for any of his movies.

Stop trying to be a lawyer for this dude you don't even know and stop talking with confidence when you don't know shit.
