Curious if more people will take this tack for outed perverts who've done voice acting. He was fired from Secret Life Of Pets 2, but if Illumination really wants credibility, they're going to make an alternate version of the first movie. A Spacey-free A Bug's Life would also be nice. Why, spacey played the villain Also he was amazing at it Seriously, at what point do we become like george lucas, constantly tinkering with old movies?

Chili posted:I don't like tinkering with old movies. What if we put out new versions of the movies where you could switch from the new one that replaces Spacey to the old version? But when you chose to play that version the dvd player shoots the disc out at high speed and it hits you in the dick for choosing to keep supporting that piece of poo poo.

Legit question: let's say Kevin Spacey was removed from A Bug's Life, and had his work dubbed over. Would he still get residuals for each sale of the movie, post removal? That seems like a tricky place to be, contractually. Like on one hand his presence is no longer in the material, but on the other I would assume that when he originally signed on part of his contract stipulated residual sales in perpetuity. The reason I ask is between Louis C.K. being retroactively removed from Gravity Falls, and Spacey being torched from All The Money In The World, it seems like the replacement of disgraced actors will be a continuing trend.

Wonder if Disney will do the same with Miller in Big Hero 6 (forgot who he even played) and CK in Inside Out (Anger)?

My issue was with your claim that Ridley Scott was complicit in covering them up. It's entirely possible that actors don't gossip about this stuff with powerful players like Scott, Spielberg, etc. for fear of being blacklisted as a "drama queens," which is another problem in and of itself. viral spiral fucked around with this message at 18:30 on Dec 21, 2017 |

Movie fans have a weird thing with being okay with watching films containing/made by very bad people which is probably a whole separate discussion that will get this thread nuked. Small animation jobs and films in production are way easier to modify than larger scale projects so I expect this will be somewhat rare but I am betting they will reshoot Deadpool 2. Eventually some studio is going to get burned by losing so much money people with reputations but no clear accusations will start finding it harder to get work. That might take a while and it will probably go through cycles as this industry attracts a lot of awful people that will replace the current crop of awful people.

sleep with the vicious posted:Family guy was making fun of spacey and Weinstein years ago. People knew and acting like it's all a surprise is a joke. Its like people that are shocked, shocked to find out athletes are doping - come the gently caress on The FAMILY GUY joke was around an urban legend and the Weinstein joke was as Seth had said, because his friend told him about her experience. Until the Anthony Rapp stuff the rumour around Spacey was that he was very closeted but also a known letch. Sure, it's questionable behaviour but it doesn't make anyone complicit in crimes just because they hire him. For all anyone knows he could've been the most delightful and well-behaved actor on that set. Did 'Hollywood' know that Weinstein raped Rose McGowan? I'd say that chances are they didn't. I know people like to pretend that if one person knows then everyone knows but that's not how poo poo works. Just because you know a rumour about your boss, doesn't mean that your co-worker does. I think that what a lot of people 'heard' is closer to what Clooney had said, which is that this stuff always seemed intended to demean actresses. So it's never about Weinstein perhaps forcing women to gently caress him, it's that so and so hosed Harvey Weinstein.

There's a new big hero 6 cartoon which I assume TJ Miller doesn't voice his own character on, they could just use that a soundalike voice actor in the sequel or to replace him. Barring that, if it is in fact already the same actor, I feel like in any voice work you want you could replace TJ Miller with Jason Lee and no one would know.

TJ Miller is literally broke brained. He had a huge chunk of his frontal lobe surgically excised while filming Yogi Bear because it was malformed, causing seizures and, in his words, erratic behaviour. Apparently his personality and attitude changed drastically after the surgery. I'm saying this more as trivia at this point, and not at all to excuse him. He's a huge piece of poo poo and the why is irrelevant.

Apparently his personality and attitude changed drastically after the surgery. These stories go back to his college days though. Specifically the one about how he battered and choked one of his girlfriends to the point that she felt she had been raped.

I think his implication in the interview about it was that the personality change was for the better and he was a huge piece of poo poo before. I dunno, like I said, it doesn't excuse his behaviour. I just thought it might help some people square away their thoughts about him - If you thought he came off as an rear end in a top hat, so did basically everyone who knew him.

I just really disagree with the premise that 'nobody knew', or it was pretty hidden. The term 'casting couch' has been around forever for a reason, the Bryan Singer stuff was known for a decade+ and he kept getting major mainstream work, and of course stuff like Whoopi Goldberg defining a difference between 'rape' and 'real rape'. I'm not sure what I make of this analogy but maybe sexual harassment is having its drunk driving moment, in that culturally it has finally turned the page to being unacceptable in a rapid fashion.

Whoopi Goldberg's terminology is "rape" vs "rape rape" As in "Sure it was rape, but it wasn't rape rape"

A lot of people have this idea in their head that being raped by some random guy on the street is automatically more traumatizing than if it's done by someone you know and thought you liked. It's actually just two slightly different kinds of trauma that can be equally horrific depending on the person, and it's pointless(at best) to make broad generalizations about which kind of assault is worse.

The problem is that you're talking about thousands of people in an industry, at varying levels and with varying interests. You're also hearing things so far removed from the people involved that its hard to know whether to take it seriously. I knew that Spacey was a letch because I knew people who worked at the Old Vic. But that's way different than hearing something eighth or ninth hand. Of course everyone knows the casting couch exists and hey, there are people who do take to it willingly. As gross as we might find something like that, it's easier to wave away as saying well, they're adults and they understood what they were getting into. Weinstein and his actions were far more insidious than that.
