Why can't you take him seriously ? Because he's made some baaaaad movie choices, or for something else ?

Just because he's Mickey Rourke, just like asking me to take Stalone or Arnie seriously. And yes, he has made some real baaaaad choices in taking roles!

As for him being a 'Slamdunk' for the best actor Oscar, they did loose a tad of their credabillity after John Wayne won one!
