http://www.latimes.com/entertainmen...0908-story.html Other reports show she doesn’t accept his online apology, and says she’s never gotten anything personal from Shane or the cast. I think straight up everyone knew that this movie wasn’t going to be a mega hit, it wasn’t tracking too well early on, the teaser trailer was really bad, reshoots, script changes...and now this. The film is straight up tainted now and since this keeps getting bigger and bigger, it’s going to be its legacy. I can imagine everyone is pretty bummed, if not pissed about this. It’s Shane’s fault, but now the whole ship is going down with everyone on it.

The hosed up thing is, the movie was going to be poo poo whether this whole thing ever happened or not. But now the studio and Black get to wash their hands of any guilt and foist all the loss on the controversy and Munn for starting it.

Yeah this is what'll happen  Also, I'm sure you're all dying to know that I've only seen Munn in Her and she did a fine job. e: After checking IMDB, that's Olivia Wilde. I've apparently not seen Munn in anything. Carthag Tuek fucked around with this message at 07:52 on Sep 9, 2018 |

Of the I think two women to portray the X-Men's Psylocke in a major motion picture, Munn had I think more lines.

So I'm not part of SAG, but I am part of a sister guild here in LA. I know personally of several people passed over for work because they didn't clear background checks. I had a background check when began work for a major studio. So yes, the claim that a studio isn't allowed to do background checks is complete bullshit.

That's a pretty powerful stance. Pretty rare to see an actor totally disown a film like that before it's even released. Hope nothing gross happened behind the scenes..

Hmm, I wonder why Moretz is having such a strong reaction to disowning the fil--quote:C.K. plays television writer and producer Glen Topher, who becomes disconcerted after his teenage daughter (Moretz) is seduced by a much older film director (Malkovich). I see.

El Gallinero Gros posted:Predators pretty much never do this sort of thing just once, that's part of what makes them predators. Yeah that's true, but at the same time -- and I don't mean to downplay the seriousness of sexual harassment or assault -- it is understandable, though not excusable, that a person could have one extremely serious lapse in judgement on one occasion and do something horrible. I mean, I imagine we've all done things that we wish we hadn't done and would take back if given the chance; not necessarily sexual harassment or even anything criminal, just bad poo poo that may have upset or hurt someone. It stands to reason that, for some people, that Thing They Did is on the extreme end of unacceptable behaviour, and while that's no excuse, it is at least somewhat understandable how it can happen, and I can have some degree of empathy for that even if I abhor the behaviour in question. The fact that there is no regret, no remorse, no attempt at making amends, and a pattern of repeated behaviour, is where it crosses the line into behaviour I can't even understand. It's completely alien to me how a person does that sort of thing. Obviously it's not particularly rare, it's just a corner of the human experience I lack any insight into.

Munn spreading conspiracy theories about Fox ignoring her for two days (they weren't, their legal team was doing the responsible thing by researching her allegations) and publicly trashing Shane Black even after he apologized are certainly influencing the negative reviews.

In which Norm Macdonald reveals he has bad opinions about pretty much every political and #metoo-related thing: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/why-norm-macdonalds-new-talk-show-wont-target-trump-1141832 This has so far cost Macdonald a Tonight Show booking. I've noticed that in another recent interview, Macdonald appears to have a handler present. While it's probably tough to watch close friends admit to wrongdoing, and in Roseanne's case develop brainworms (from all accounts Roseanne used to be a progressive, not a Q nazi), I also get sick of celebs trying to work an apolitical brand reveal that they're not apolitical, just nearsighted and ignorant of politics.

Of course, then you get that loving knob Russell Brand telling people "not to vote." gently caress off, like. As is the "they're all the same." That's just lazy criticism, To not vote is a vote for the status quo, and people with a platform to preach about how they're "apolitical," or telling people not to vote, well, they're clearly doing well in the current status quo, and they're discouraging you from engaging in politics from their ivory towers.

Being completely bent out of shape about Norm's comments is hilarious and a perfect microcosm about what's broken here. Everyone treats any sort of sympathy as a zero-sum game, so the mere hint of an expression that people have had entire careers destroyed and how absolutely psychologically destructive on an infathomable level that must be somehow means that he's stealing righteous sympathy from the victims. It's asinine. He's not saying they weren't wrong, hell, he's not even saying that they don't deserve it. Just so we know exactly what was apparently so heinous: Norm posted:Well, Louis [C.K.] and Roseanne [Barr] are the two people I know. And Roseanne was so broken up [after her show's reboot was canceled] that I got Louis to call her, even though Roseanne was very hard on Louis before that. But she was just so broken and just crying constantly. There are very few people that have gone through what they have, losing everything in a day. Of course, people will go, "What about the victims?" But you know what? The victims didn't have to go through that.
