very sad to hear, hes a wonderful actor. hope he pulls through ok.

50 Get wells!!!! :thumbsup

make that 51.

From Findarticles:

Freeman's recent salary and asking price per film is between $5-6 million when he should earn $11.4 million, according to the poll. Other Black actors who earn less than they should included noted actors Samuel L. Jackson, who asks for $4.5 million but should earn $8.4 million, and Danny Glover, who asks for $2 million but should earn $4.8 million.

So you're saying he can't buy a better car because he only makes a few million per picture?

"Freeman overcorrected, flipping his 1997 Nissan Maxima several times before coming to a rest."

What's he doing in a 1997 Nissan Maxima?

Have you considered that he doesn't care about showing off his wealth? and sometimes celeb's just want to live a normal life? Often those who take pictures won't look at an old car and instead source out high priced cars. Morgan has always struck me as a man who is simply cool - doesn't need toys to show that he is.

I agree and Sam Walton drove an old pickup truck.

He's still alive. And it doesn't look like he's going to die.

FRom an AP article:

"They had to use the jaws of life to extract him from the vehicle," McFerrin said. "He was lucid, conscious. He was talking, joking with some of the rescue workers at one point."

McFerrin said bystanders converged on the scene trying to get a glimpse of the actor.

When one person tried to snap a photo with a cell phone camera, Freeman joked, "no freebies, no freebies," McFerrin said.

I have had the pleasure of meeting Morgan a couple of years ago at a premiere. He was laid back and just a cool kat. He carries himself very well and was very articulate and well spoken. Morgan was what every actor should strive to be. Classy and not caught up on being a star who vogues for the camera or desires all of the media coverage.

This is very sad and I hope he pulls through it.

Morganus Fuckman is dying? So sad, lalalalalalalalalalalala.

You guys are not good actors. :thumbsup

He's been famous for soo long it wouldn't surprise me if he resorts to hiding from the media like that..

'97 maxima is what all baddass black men drive over here.. it's a comfortable car..

Get well soon Mr. Freeman.

+1 Respect for '97 Maxima

I took this picture of Morgan during my pap days being swarmed by autograph hounds.

^^^^^^^^^^^^

Modesty isn't for everyone. I admire a man like him who doesn't need the flashy cars or big bling.

GFY=not the best source for news

am i the only one who read the part about it's not his car?

He didn't die yet check your news! He's just in the hospital in serious condition

I hope he's ok......!

Brad

I'm glad to hear he isn't really dead. I always liked him.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

He'll be fine. Hope he'll recover fast!

new skin for me replying this, I hope he get well soon

Scared Me For A Second

I find it amazing that he's only won 1 Academy Award and only been nominated for 3 other Oscars. He's one of the better actors out there and has been in a hell of a lot of good films.

:(((((((((
Rest in Peace

NOT FUNNY :321GFY

The '97 Maxima belonged to the woman in the car, he was driving. He's not dead yet, just in serious condition.

I'm sending him all the best vibes I can muster up. That guy's done some incredible acting and in everything I've ever seen him in or on in person, he's been a very chill, very cool guy.

are u guys retarded?
 

I hope he makes a full recovery.

so glad he is not dead

(CNN) -- Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman was in serious condition at a Memphis hospital after being involved in a car accident Sunday night, but did not suffer any "life-threatening" injuries, according to a friend.

NOT DEAD !!!!

jeez u ppl allways draw conclusions too quick.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2008/....hurt.in.crash

Sry to hear he is gone... :(

The woman he was driving with was a close friend of him and his wife, it was her car that he was driving.

Congrats to the winners...

Broken arm... not really serious...

and whats this with Bernie Mac.. AIDS?

I'd expect this kind of bullshit thread from Juicy, but not from Chio. I think Juicy hacked Chio's account. Someone ban Juicy.

hope he recovers

Its easy to spot the actual sigwhores in this thread... those who say that they are sorry he's dead obviously don't read anything

I watched "The Bucket List" two nights ago (starring Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman), so I was somewhat shocked to hear about Freeman's accident. I do hope he pulls through...

If you haven't seen "The Bucket List" yet, check it out. Some very life affirming and positive messages in it.

ADG

get well morgan

He is not dead. You should not post that someone has died unless they are dead dumbass. :2 cents:

Too bad for him, he's a great actor!

So whats the deal... he dead or not dead?

This thread is still going?!
