since i don't understand all of this yet, i have a hard time believing that others fully comprehend it and can really know their type. there are too many conflicting opinions going on here to put complete trust in one opinion or the other.Originally Posted by qbsirena06
so, he is selftyped as ESTp, yes.
I know what you mean. Back to Shia though, I always got an introvert vibe from him. But maybe I'm going by his movies where he usually plays the not so popular dorky (in a funny way) teen who ends up saving the world or something. Anyway, I wouldn't have thought ESTp and I don't necessarily see leadership, but I am probably totally going by the movies.
He's the Si subtype of ISTp... (my dual)
For comparison, Hayden Christensen (sp? the guy from Star Wars,) is the producing subtype of ISTp.

Hopefully this post disproves the stereotype that ISTp men usually look like John Goodman, or something like that... (Not that there's anything wrong with John Goodman's looks, or anything, hehe.)
Yes, I agree with that, but I am not sure about Shia being an ISTp. I think SLE would be a good alternative since I can easily feel his "presence" and sense a kind of composedness I wouldn't necessarily relate to ISTps. I haven't seen much of him though so this is just my basic impression.
“Whether we fall by ambition, blood, or lust, like diamonds we are cut with our own dust.”
i always seem to get mixed up with subtypes. i thought that hayden guy would be perceiving subtype and shia producing subtype. But i'd originally thought ISTp as well. Then i thought maybe ENFp but he looks like a sensor.
My impression from his movie roles has been IEE, but I think it's worth considering some Te type.
i used to this he's SLI, but now, i'm not so sure.
INTp
sx/sp
Possibly LIE.
he looks like a young version of Russel Crowe
There's something awfully lonely about him. He has a nice voice, but it just seems like he has all this fame and not a real friend. But if he is a leader, that would make sense since being a leader innately requires one to be alone. (lots of followers, but nobody seeing eye-to-eye which is required of a friend)
I think he cries himself to sleep at night. I think he wants nothing more than to just live in a fairytale world where people do nothing but love each other all day. Him being ESTp and needing an INFp dual then, would make perfect sense.
He reminds me of Nicholas Cage.
Yup.
There are only a few ppl on this forum who type with any degree of accuracy... Maybe ten ppl or so, who are usually on the right track with their typings... It really takes awhile to learn how to type accurately, an awful lot of studying ppl... Self-analysis as well.
There are ppl with 1000s of posts on this forum who are almost always way off when they type... So I'm not sure if it's a learning curve--it seems like some ppl end up getting it sooner or later, and some never do..
EDIT: for example, do you see how many types have been suggested, even in this one thread about Shia LaB..? It's nuts!
We should probably watch more than interview before coming to a conclusion, (I haven't yet, hah,) but from the one video, it seems that one could make an argument for these types for S. LaB: ISTp, ISFp, and maybe even ENTp... I wouldn't think ESTp, but Winter Park's usually on the right track, so I will investigate that one too.

He seems manic and jittery -- not at all laid back, so I'd say EJ over IP, and also weak Si. His eyes dart everywhere when he talks, and he seems to twitch his arms around while talking, as if to divert attention away from himself out of a feeling of awkwardness. He stays away from the party scene and from any sort of controversy, so I'd say weak, unvalued Fe. He seems very friendly and also very concerned with how entertaining he is, giving off a kind of "am I boring you?" puppy dog vibe, which is keeping in line with Fe role. He lives modestly for someone of his means, driving a Nissan Maxima and living in a two-bedroom house by himself, and he says he became an actor in order to make money, so I'd say strong Te.
That's all a bit contrived, but LIE is my best guess.
I agree, extroversion does seem very likely for those reasons.
Wouldn't this indicate introversion>extroversion?
Now when I think about it and after discojoe's analysis, LIE would make sense too. More so then ISTp anyways...
“Whether we fall by ambition, blood, or lust, like diamonds we are cut with our own dust.”
No, it would indicate basically what discojoe said.
“Whether we fall by ambition, blood, or lust, like diamonds we are cut with our own dust.”
You lie!!!
I certainly don't.You lie!!!
“Whether we fall by ambition, blood, or lust, like diamonds we are cut with our own dust.”
you need to speak for yourself
I do.
I totally agree with this... In one interview he talks about how he spends most of his time at home playing video games... Si-ISTp would be a possibility, I think--he does have that look in those photos, definitely, and when he's listening to a question--if he's usually just chillin, not jittery or anything... Haven't seen him that way though.
That's exactly what I mean.
he is kinda gangly but strong.. seems istp.
i saw the indiana jones movie and became interested in him again. he does seem like an S type. gentle
He reminds me of a SLE I went to high school with, but I'm not sure how much of that is type related.
It could be Shia's just not used or kinda doesn't like giving interviews. makes him jittery
