 | For a long time the same text was floating at the head of this site as there were no breaking developments between the resident of 1 I-Love-You-Monkey Place... but after a party earlier this week, all that has changed. There is an actual Casey run-in and evening of tasteful and somewhat distanced stalking that took place at a party thrown by an event arranged by Casey's loving brother and the organizers that screwed Messers McCue and Equinox. |
| The following is a dramatic re-enactment (teleplay) of what occured on that fateful night:
Enter Monkey Boy and Slick Cohort into a rather trendy Hollywood Cafe/Bar where many wannabe celeb types socialize in the seemingly laid-back outfits they spent the better part of a week putting together. Monkey scans the crowd. A telling look on his face confirms that the object of his desire is absent. Together, they approach the bar. BARKEEP (in a tightly fitting "A.L.F." T-Shirt with silver glitter that says "Out of this world!" on the left sleeve): What can I get you? MONKEY & SLICK: Gin and Tonic. The Barkeep considers making a joke about whether they'll split the gin and tonic or if they want two, but he reaches for his bottles and glasses. Monkey looks for a moment, he knew there was a joke and wouldn't mind hearing it. SLICK: What a room of utter sadness... MONKEY: Equinox doesn't know how good he has it... Barkeep places the drinks down. Slick raises his. SLICK: To Equinox
Their glasses clink and a bit of Gin and Tonic runs over the edge of Monkey's being as the glasses were so filled when the cheered. Dipping his head to lick the slight stream running town his hand before it drips to the floor, Monkey's eyes lock on something. He is frozen, tongue to hand, eyes looking toward the door. A young man, head slightly tipped upward enters the bar. Slick: Well, well. Chuck we have a double Affleck. Monkey's lips stetch out into his pattented long thin smile... his eyes squint with glee, but he tries to keep them open so as to keep his view of Casey as full as possible. Slick: I say you make your movie, Monkey. |  |

When Matt Damon and Ben Affleck won their Oscars for Good Will Hunting, they were overcome with excitement and glee. They snatched their statuettes from Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon-like that wasn't set up-and nearly began to celebrate right then and there-no, they didn't go as loony as that Pepsi-One-Lovin' Cuba Gooding. However, the speech did turn serious for a moment when Ben thanked his brother Casey saying "I love you very much."
 | Casey first became known to the world when he played Russel in Gus Van Sant's To Die For. A class mate of Jimmy Emmett (Joaquin Phoenix), Russel would end up participating in Suzanne Stone's (Nicole Kidman) documentary about troubled teens once his teacher-played by Buck Henry, who also wrote the screenplay-points out to him that insulting Ms. Stone could result in Russel's becoming a "nutless wonder"-Suzanne's husband believed to be linked to mafia types who could execute a makeshift castration.. Russel and Jimmy go on to murder Suzanne's husband when she offers her body to Joaquin and some CDs to Russel. Winner of the Golden Globe for Best Actress Comedy in 1995, To Die For is a solid film with one of the best opening sequences in film history. |
| After To Die For, Casey would do a string of movies with older brother Ben Affleck who was (at the time) best known as the bastard from Casual Male in Kevin Smith's Mallrats. Casey and Ben would find themselves in Smith's next picture, Chasing Amy. Though nearly a cameo appearance for Casey, he would be one of the first characters in the film to begin pointing out to Jason Lee that he was nothing more than a tracer. Casey went on to insist that only Holden(Ben Affleck) sign his comic book since he was the true artist-not just some tracer. After Amy, Casey, Ben, and Ben's best friend and co-writer Matt Damon would find themselves back under the direction of Gus Van Sant in Good Will Hunting. The film-executive produced by Kevin Smith-would launch Ben and Matt's careers and place Casey in the role of Morgan, a wise-cracking sidekick of sorts who waits for the day when he can supplant Will Hunting and take a seat in shotgun. |  |
 | Casey would go on to start in a few smaller films, such as Morgan J. Freeman's Desert Blue before winding back up with Ben in 200 Cigarettes. The film follows and ensemble cast through their various storylines as they make their way to the desperate Martha Plimpton's New Year's Eve Party in 1982. Ben plays a cocksure bartender who is hitting on all of his customers and hopeful that he will end up with at least one of the "lucky" ladies before the night is through. Casey, sharing virtually no screen-time with his brother, plays a punk teenager (see banner) who begins to hunt after Christina Ricci and Gaby Hoffmann, two Long Island chicks who get lost in Alphabet City. A good film over all, though it does have its weak points, it is most notable for the performances of Paul Rudd and Courtney Love. |
| Compared to There's Something About Mary because of its lewd sense of humor-is this what filmic levels of comparison have been reduced to?--American Pie was the teen movie hit of the year. Casey did not receive screen credit for his role as former Rookie of the Year Kevin's older brother. When on the brink of losing his girlfriend and maintaining his virginity, Kevin calls his older brother in search of any means to raise his oral prowess, win his girlfriend (the former Mrs. Bunny Lebowski) back, and hopefully move on to more exciting sexual practices. When Casey realizes that his brother is true of heart, he turns him on to book hidden in the school library-a journal of sorts that has been giving boys the keys to heaven for years. |  |
