You have to admit though, Woody Harrelson's failed AMA today has produced some of the funniest front page content in a long time... I mean sure he was horrible at the AMA and it was just to promote a movie, but reddit is having a field day with it, and I for one applaud Mr. Harrelson's ability to direct reddit towards hilarious mock posts such as this.

Sir, you bring a smile to my face!

That's because EVERYTHING is made better by imagining George Takei saying it.

Wow yeah, I knew where this was going as soon as I saw the first several posts on the AMA. The title post mentioned his NEW movie, all the top upvoted questions were about Zombieland.

Hell they could have done a better staged publicity thing if hey had just taken the picture of some random guy standing next to Woody, with Woody putting his arm around him looking like a friendly bro, and captioned it "Guess who I ran into today, he said he was filming a new movie called Rampart."

Woody Harrelson's PR person tried to use IAMA as a regular radio talk show interview. 15 minutes, only talk about the movie, no heavy hitting questions.

Just wait until he's shows up on a late-night talk show promoting his movie.

He'll probably end up mentioning how he had a terrible experience answering questions on "some website"

Jay Leno: So they said you took some young girls virginity and never called her back?

W. Harrelson: Heh, yeah man, I tell you what, that internet is a bunch of bullshit. I mean me? Taking a girls virginity at a Hilton? I wouldn't spend the night in a Hilton if they gave me a room full of virgins!

[–]LilDrumrGrl 27 points28 points ago

Whew, if he's smart he won't mention any of this to anyone, even if they ask.

[–]aspiderbot 29 points30 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I doubt he even knows it happened. his posts were obviously dictated. there are a lot of starts and stops of ideas and ellipses, and that usually only happens when you're talking and someone else is transcribing it word for word.

the pr person probably just shot off a response on his own, I really can't imagine him reading that out loud to woody

[–]SuperShamou 17 points18 points ago

They'll ask, and he'll say something random about Rampart.

[–]gaygineer 36 points37 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Actually I've seen celebrity AMAs where it's very likely they haven't posted to Reddit before (ie. they ask questions about formatting or say they didn't know about editing existing comments) but still have some idea of the etiquette of the site--or they care to ask. Whoever thought of the idea had no clue what they were getting into.

[–]LilDrumrGrl 56 points57 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yes, yes, I knew someone would point this out. I know Colbert and Louis C.K. had good AMAs; they are humorists who deal with people like us on reddit all the time. Poor fuckin' Woody probably thought this was going to take 90 minutes or so and he'd be plugging his movie not dredging up his past sexual exploits. It's comparable to a 12 year old who saw the original Scumbag Steve meme on on the wall while visiting his brother in college and posts it to reddit today thinking 'hey this is funny, they'll love it!' only to be lambasted with downvotes and angry repost comments. Neither the imaginary kid nor Woody had any idea what they were getting into. Reddit is a harsh mistress.

[–]gaygineer 37 points38 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

But the difference (I think) between Woody and the imaginary kid is that this was very likely orchestrated by his PR person. That person should have known or at least done some research as to what an AMA is. I'm not saying Woody is to blame. The one who dropped the ball is his PR guy/gal.

[–]LilDrumrGrl 31 points32 points ago

[–]Pretentious_Douche 11 points12 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Reddit's comment etiquette is "be funny, smart, grammatically correct, and accurate." If you can do these things alone or in combination you get upvotes. Celebrities (including the celebrity accounts) have a leg up in that they have a certain amount of brand recognition and people are willing to go half way with them.

It follows then that the best AMAs are from funny, smart and knowledgeable people (for whatever values of funny reddit is into at the moment), exactly what rises to the top here. This AMA not only failed because it was obvious social marketing (which reddit has a visceral reaction against when it's not accompanied with funny videos), but because there was nothing the least bit humorous or insightful about it.

A bar I used to work at in Toronto used to have pick up soccer games at the park just south of Broadview station every Sunday morning (probably about 5-6 years ago). Woody used to come and play with us. He was a great guy, down to earth. He would show up on an old bike (looked like an Indian from a distance, didn't see it up close), and while most of us had cleats and shin pads, he would play in his bare feet. (He was pretty good too). There was no celebrity during these games, he was just one of the guys and treated everyone equal. I agree with the general tone of the discussion in this post that this was likely the screw up of a PR person of the movie. I highly doubt Woody was made aware of the situation.

I dunno if you can really equate "the real world" and doing an AMA on reddit. But I do agree with your point about someone telling him to do it without filling him in on the culture of reddit. Just poorly managed by whoever asked him to do it. Can't really blame a guy when the first question he see's is "was your dad a contract killer?"

It has to be one of the bigger interview blunders you can do. "It will be great! It's very hip!" Then the first question is about you banging a high school chick.

Woody, it's just like a TV interview, but multiple questioners.

So, what's to keep them from asking non movie related questions?

No, they won't do that. I'll just say you're there to talk about the movie!

But the title says AMA.

About the movie silly, they can read context.

Ok, sure whatever. Give me the keyboard.

No... I'll type your responses so you don't have to.

Fine sure. Woah. This first question is a little personal. *pauses ... OH YEAH I remember that bitch! Man those kids just couldn't believe it was me but I was just concerned with plowing that vag. Man I could have swam she was so wet with me big talking about the movie business.

... Uh.., * begins typing furiously, mouthing his words as he says them to reassure them

first of off, it's not true, second off, I don't want to talk about that.

Okay Woody, I'll pick the questions from now on... Vegan food! I can make that one about rampart!

[–]TheLuckman 15 points16 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Maybe he meant it's not true that she was a virgin. And what he didn't want to talk about was that first time they boned, but really wanted to discuss with reddit the second time he plowed that vag on the bluff up near dead man's curve...maybe.

Nah. If she's like all the publicists I've met, she'll just flit off to the next assignment, not giving a crap what anyone thinks, shameless, knowing that any publicity is good publicity, and the metrics of her profession are so vague as to judge almost any performance a success.

[–]fireburt 26 points27 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

This is the great part. I don't subscribe to AMA so to me it seems like he was misinformed by a publicist then swarmed by redditors so I don't really feel that bad about what he did. People are reacting like he's a bigger cunt than Hitler and he raped and murders their family.

I'm a big fan of his movies so I'll probably go see this shit if it gets decent reviews. In the end, he wins.

To be honest, he would rather talk about how his famous last scene was turned into hundreds of mock translated videos. Like the one where his Xbox live subscription was permanently blocked etc

Ya but those are more constants, rather than the flavor-of-the-moment I think cartlemmy was thinking of. Actually Reddit's been scattered all over the place with targets recently, with SOPA, ACTA, MPAA, FBI, etc. pulling so many 'moves' at once.

It was nice of Woody to bring Reddit back into focus.

So I understand that this was a bad PR move, but does anyone know if Woody took any substantial damage to his rep - to the point that his publicist or even Woody would've noticed? I know reddit is a large community but did they seriously even notice if a social website was rubbed the wrong way? I'm sure he does hundreds of interviews and stuff that this attempt may be lost in the furry of promotion.

I know we can induce an obvious conclusion on this one but I'm just curious to see if this has impacted Woody to the point where he feels as though he fucked up like Kanye.

[–]BernardLaverneHoagie 16 points17 points ago

So we are all aware that, whether we like it or not, the front page is full of Woody Harrelson stuff and everyone pretty much knows about this new bullshit film of his, right?

I'd say mission accomplished.

Woody Harrelson did an AMA and it failed spectacularly. He would only answer questions about his new movie. The fiasco is known as Woodygate.

[–]blankwall 21 points22 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Honestly, does anybody really blame him for backing out? I've been a fan of his for half my life now and I can't see him looking at all the shit we threw at him and saying "Yeah, I'm still on board for this."

[–]gaygineer 25 points26 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

People always ask hard/awkward questions during celebrity AMAs. Someone asked Louis CK what role his stand up played in his divorce. Most people simply ignore the question or say they won't address the question. But they still freakin answer other questions. And they don't limit questions to only those related to whatever they're trying to plug.

His PR should have informed him of this. People shouldn't try to exploit social media if they don't understand how it works.

[–]SlimMaculate 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

To be fair, the users following the IAMA do a decent job of downvoting the inappropriate questions to oblivion.

Also some celebs are less phased by shit then the general reddit public is. I remember Donald Glover in his IAMA responding to a relevant_rule34 post.

I don't understand, Woody is part of the same machinery that wants to push the likes of SOPA through, that would smile as you go to jail for copying Zombie Land. Yet think the one of the online commmunities that stand out/up for intellectual property rights/reform would go "squeee..." and piss them selfs over a "film star" doing an AMA... Its the same fuckers behind the AMA that shut down megaupload FFS,...

Well, just be honest about the reason for the AMA. Woody was pushing something and that's not what Reddit is about. Don't come here to advertise stuff.
