I just think it's hilarious that he was cast in this because he's got such a sleazy, sinister sexiness. Usually they cast Tom Selleck or Joe Namath for these kinds of geriatric contraptions.

He was on some talk show talking about how he's the boss in bed with his wife but she's the boss everywhere else. The entire thing made me want to vomit, slowly. The audience kept staring at him like he'd just announced he was moving them all into his giant harem.

He was actually a really talented actor. And gorgeous looking. I think his sister tried to help him many times after he helped her become a superstar and a huge Hollywood power player but I think Eric is a fuck up. And his sister becoming a global icon fucked him up bad. He's bad news. Julia has tried but he is batshit crazy. His doing.

I think he's a weird choice for American Standard spokesman. Even his good movies (long ago) weren't huge mainstream hits, and he's been the straight to video champ for decades now. I guess they couldn't afford Ray Romano....

This has always been one of their major issues. Eric continues to talk. When you are a major star like Julia you need your people to be quiet.

r27 and she was quite calculating in crafting in her public persona... for someone her age, she handled interviewers quite well from the start. Albeit, at the time, they would write her off being an airhead but most airheads couldn't dodge their questions as deftly. By 93/94, she transformed into the Julia she's more known for with the neverending creepy smiling...

r28 it was his mother, who left their family and then came back but to seek custody of only his sisters... she's just a proxy.

R28 I believe he might have worked that out on Celebrity Rehab, blubbering away due to his addiction to...... POT. I mean.... Bless his heart (and gorgeous everything else).

I'd read somewhere that Julia did everything she could to not have him do Celebrity Rehab. It was a taint on the family name and he still did it.

by Anonymousreply 31June 19, 2022 1:48 AM

She made his daughter a multi millionaire star. She would have done the same for him who is the true talent in the family. But he could not get away from drugs and anger for his sister to allow her to do it.

It’s likely been said…he maybe a mess but look at his IMDB. A hard-working mess.

by Anonymousreply 37June 19, 2022 1:56 AM

Julia believes her mother ia saint and he views her as the devil. . . he had an idealized version of what their relationship would be when she got into the industry and she had already sized him up long before she arrived to use him as a stepping stone to bigger and better opportunities. He already had a drug problem then.

It's funny how their public personas are the opposite of who they were rumoured to be... him being more introverted, her being more extroverted.

When the dirt inevitably comes up on her... it won't be family related but rather the long list of criminals she's enabled to hobnob and retain her position among the top.

r46 From what I gather, they play it like dealing with addict that has slipped up one too many times to ever be called recovering. . .I'd imagine they're using something akin to behavioral mental heatlh charts as it sounds like he gets info on her through other family members more than direct contact.. and that direct contact is mostly left to private and controlled settings when a third party verifies he's doing what he's supposed to.

She's significantly closer to Julia than she is to him. . . but some people feel that's a bit sketchy because it seems very hollywoodish to the extent more people think they're mother and daughter than Julia and her own kids. Albeit, Hazel is still quite young yet but perhaps mama doesn't have much faith she'll become as successful as Emma. You find significantly more pictures of her own children with their father and Julia with Emma and even Roberts' step children. Or perhaps this is just a dysfunctional family and you have Julia viewing Robert like their dad, Robert viewing Julia like their mom, etc.

by Anonymousreply 48June 19, 2022 2:46 AM

Emma worships Julia. And Julia treats her more like a daughter than her own children. Emma is quite beautiful and striking like Julia and Eric. He own kids don't have that.

by Anonymousreply 49June 19, 2022 2:49 AM

Say what you want about Julia. But she did right by Emma and Lisa. Makes one think she would have done the same for Eric if he wasn't such an embarrassing fuck up and crazy. But he got jealous and was probably mean and abusive when she became "Julia Roberts".

Ha ha! That was one torturous movie. Johnny Whitaker of "Family Affair" was the big star.

Eric also was in the third "Human Centipede" movie playing a red-state governor — with THAT hair and what was obviously his own Hollywood wardrobe.

I think he's like Michael Madsen — meet his (low) price and he'll show up and do anything you like.

When someone in your family reaches a certain level of fame you need to learn or be paid to know how to shut your mouth. Eric doesn't have that note.

I like those walk in tubs and such. They intrigue me. Thankfully the wife and I haven't a need for one.

Eric Roberts is really handsome. He's aged quite well. He is an original because his looks and manner of speaking aren't really common.

Why did Julia Roberts not push higher education on her niece? I'm just curious. Did Emma Roberts show an artistic bent at a young age or was she just pushed into it?

r60 the stepfather would later come out. No one knows if the abuse allegations were true but he was well known drunk... the birth father was a bitter hasbeen actor/playwright turned acting teacher with a wife that likely had mental health and addiction issues on top of being a pro-south religious nut, while he veered towards the agnostic/atheist desperate to reclaim fame in the big city because he had no real living skills or survivability, and that he was the passive provider, emotionally unavailable. So, yeah, in fly over territory to most would ping that as gay. And there were rumours his death was a suicide, though it was likely natural. . but hard to say between the unofficial documentarians/tabloids, eric's addiction issues making him as reliable of a source as mackenzie phillips, julia's hoity toity stonewalling and mommy dearest's professional victimhood. . . plus the surrounding cast, which have stated issues.. the initial claims against the stepfather came from the other sister and it was within now debunked recalled therapy and to address her addiction/trauma issues.
