Hey Bros!
Welcome to Twitter in Focus where media comes to die! Today’s contestant is fava bean eater and Norse God, Anthony Hopkins. Let’s see what he’s tweeting.
March 28th: “Having a great time at #cinemacon with @michaelbay for @transformers in #lasvegas”
Does Michael Bay travel with his own lens flare?
March 29th: “Thank you Paramount #BellagioHotel #LasVegas #CinemaCon #MichaelBay #Transformers”
That must be one swanky hotel if a movie star is tweeting about it.
April 5th: “This is life, not a rehearsal. #lightenthefuckup” http://www.mensjournal.com/entertainment/articles/life-advice-from-anthony-hopkins-w463343
Ha! Nice!
April 10th: “#JeffMitchumGalleries #LasVegas #BellagioHotel #MGMGrand #AnthonyHopkinsArt” https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C9EWb3zUQAAoHLj.jpg:large
He’s really into art. I always picture him a Renaissance Man.
April 12th: “#artstudio #jeffmitchumgalleries #havingfun”
Cool painting, bro!
April 22nd: “Endless summer #southerncalifornia #malibu #dreams”
Must be nice. L.A. with money!
April 24th: “#AnthonyHopkinsArt #JeffMitchumGalleries”
Note to self. Write script where Anthony Hopkins is a famous painter…that hunts vampires. Ooo, he kills the vampires and turns them into art!
April 25th: “The most powerful, most courageous part of oneself that one can experience is to totally accept everything. Accept life as it is.”
Inspiring. Even better when you read it in his voice.
April 26th: “RIP my friend. #JonathanDemme”
That was a huge bummer. So many talented people have passed away these last two years.
May 2nd: “#malibu #dreamscapes #anthonyhopkinsart.com”
Wow, nice view.
May 6th: “My friend, @AaronTuckerArt is a terrific artist.”
Kinda like Jackson Pollack.
May 9th: “Grateful for the guidance and encouragement. #BerniceEvans #ArtTeacher #NationalTeachersDay #DreamscapesArtBook”
Nice sketch.
May 14th: “In loving memory of Muriel Hopkins. #HappyMothersDay”
Aw, nice.
May 18th: “Having fun #Disneyland #California”
This guy never stops.
May 23rd: “Congratulations @michaelbay. #HandandFootprintCeremony #TCLChineseTheatreImax #Hollywood #LosAngeles”
Does Michael Bay’s star explode every hour on the hour? It should.
May 29th: “Thank you, America. #MemorialDay”
This is the classiest Twitter account ever.
May 30th: “Dreams are free, and so often can have no logical or linear development. For me they contain a deep form of rebellion against reality.”
He is infinitely quotable.
Okay, let’s rate AH. Wow, class all the way. I give him an 8 for Mustness, an 9 for Insanity (because you have to be a little crazy to be an artist) and a 10 for Style. That’s an overall score of 9, but I’m bumping it to 10. You have to follow Sir Anthony.
