Although Ryan Gosling's verified Twitter account [1] has been around since 2011, he's been mostly silent — until these past few weeks. Now that his directorial debut, Lost River [2], is receiving buzz over the recently released trailer, Ryan is creating a buzz of his own with some pretty hilarious tweets. After just two tweets, he started wondering about unofficial Twitter rules, asking [3], "OK, am I tweeting too much now? What's the twitter etiquette?!" Then Ryan realized that he wasn't including handles in his tweets, and he made the perfect joke [4], calling himself the "Twitter version of Bambi on ice right now," adding, "I'll get it. Don't give up hope!"

This week, he went on a retweeting spree, and after retweeting some fan art and commentary about his new film, he joked [5], "Obviously I just figured out how to retweet. I'll get on top of this." (Cue fans everywhere dreaming of a Ryan Gosling retweet!) See what the star has been saying on Twitter below, and then look back at his Hollywood evolution [6], from The Mickey Mouse Club to now.
