I think people become boring when they cease to be interested in what's outside of themselves, what's in the world, literature, music...... Somehow I can't see Nic ever being boring in this way.

Me, neither! I think, it`s really good, to have a normal conversation. And, besides, he is an NICxcellent actor, and he can act crazy or odd in his movies, but that doesn`t automatically mean, that this is he in real life! People easly intend to forget that, when they see brilliant acting! That`s another proof for his NIColicious nouveau shamaNIC acting style!

I think 'boring' is construct made by people who limit their reality and cannot / will not feel beyond the material world. even if a person is silent there is a rhythm and music that radiates into infinity. this to me is the most important thing more important that words. It strikes me that Nic as an actor and probably as a person has a pretty deep level of awareness and has a radiance that could never be described as boring, whatever is or isn't coming out of his mouth.
Well said, Lula! To me Nic could NEVER described as boring! His "deep level of awareness",(I like this words), in my opinion, is the result of his nuoveau shamaNIC acting-style!

Nicolas is never been a boring actor to watch! The reason why they can't appreciate Nicolas is they can't appreciate the world of an "arts". I feel bad to Nicolas upon reading this issue here in our forum. I think I should ignore that fact. It really doesn't make sense anyway! =))
I think it is very true! And I don't think Nic is boring, he is such an interesting man! He is so talented and sweet, I think he isn't boring at all ^^

I actually think it's hilarious when Nic calls himself "boring." To us, his life is anything but boring!! LOL!!!
I would love to live on an island, film a movie, swim with sharks, and travel the globe all in a year!
