ONE YEAR LATER posted:It was shot this year. I don't know which wife Guiliani is on at this point, number three? Four? Okay, I thought maybe it had a delay because of the pandemic. His last wife left him last year so I was curious if he was willing to cheat on her.

He has a very public history of cheating on former wives. He also announced he was divorcing his wife during a press conference, which is when she also found out about it.

ONE YEAR LATER posted:Ah so he's just a regular creep who was preparing to gently caress someone he just met and is 1/3 his age, good to know. Look, I don't like the guy and I don't want to defend him, I'm just trying to avoid the potential propagation of bullshit here. Taken at face value and without the context of the actress being 24, the scene is far more damning than it actually is. And we all know how tweets are great for providing context.

We can watch and find out in 2 days I guess. For the record I'm not saying that Guiliani was under the impression that this woman was a 15 year old girl and was getting ready to gently caress, what I'm saying is that he was more than willing to almost whip his dick out in front of a young woman he just met and was ostensibly a college reporter. I really doubt they had any relationship outside of the set up, this isn't an issue of an older man and a younger woman being in a relationship, it's a guy who saw a chance to score and leap at it even though he should 10000000% know better.

^^^^^Uncle Lloyd posted:It's probably important to note that the actress in the scene is reportedly 24, and that Guiliani tried to leave immediately after Baron Cohen came in with the "she's 15!" line. So while he's definitely an absolute idiot, he's probably not a pedophilic idiot. He got up to leave because SBC was running at him in a thong, not because he’s a morally upright person.

Holy poo poo, that last scene in Trial of the Chicago 7. It's one of the most cringe things I've ever scene. Move over "Newsroom/Bin Laden" scene, we have a new clubhouse leader. I don't know anything about Abbie Hoffman. Did he have a weird accent or is SBC just really bad at this guys particular accent?

The Dollop just released part 2 of a 3 part podcast on Abbie Hoffman, and at the end of each episode they take a couple minutes to poo poo on Sorkin and how badly portrayed The Chicago Seven is, especially because its way more absurd than you can imagine. I recommend listening to at least the second episode which is on the trial alone, but the first provides all the backdrop and is great.

He was from Massachusetts so he had your typical Massachusetts accent, but not a particularly strong one, though honestly that might be tougher than a really broad "Pahk the cah in hahvahd yahd."

LionArcher posted:why can't a billionaire like Babylon 5 and buy it from WB for like 200 million, and then give JMS the rights and a four or five year commitment to a new series . I want more B5 with modern day effects. (and re do the old effects and then put them out on Blu-ray finally). JMS will respond to anyone on twitter and talks about this all the time. tl;dr - there is one executive that hates him and won't sell the rights or unfreeze the property as a personal grudge. They know it would make money on the blu ray, and there's even a guy with the original CGI who has been updating it for HD, but So until that guy leaves or is fired, the series is on ice.

I kind of hope Netflix or someone buys up the Quibi shows so people can actually see them without signing up for a lovely service called Quibi. Though I honestly don't want to see any of them.

AngryBooch posted:Oh I see, they weren't paying her enough to afford a ticket to Disneyland. The point wasn't the cost, its a benefit that is widely (and publicly!) extended to higher ups in the company. Telling her "don't you have enough" over the cost of a Disney ticket is guaranteed to drive off anyone, let alone the person that has literally sculpted the bulk of your networks primetime lineup. Its so bad on so many levels and given her record, will be made more severe as time goes on. I also say this as someone who literally hasn't watched a single episode of a Shonda Rhimes show, but knows of her skill.

Calling an executive at ABC to get them to call the ticket booth of Disneyland is extremely spoiled behavior. Hope Netflix makes her happy and she makes a different show than Grey's Anatomy but this time at a newspaper or something.

I mean they did specifically say it was the last straw. Not like everything was going great then she dipped out over such a tiny thing. I mean it's common enough in regular life where friends will have a little beef and one asks for a tiny favor only to get turned down and it's like "welp see ya never shitnuts." Friendship with ABC over. Helps to have a new friend waiting in the wings too though.

Even if what you said is true, is it a good idea to shred your relationship over like $200 bucks for a multimillion empire? You realise she would have to do that every day for a century plus to even come close to the revenue she generated for ABC...

She's absolutely creatively spent at ABC. Hope she creates something new at Netflix and ABC takes a chance on somebody fresh and everyone's happy tbh.

She was probably getting a ton of poo poo behind the scenes, despite basically carrying their network, and now they can't even accommodate her on this tiny thing. That's the moment she realized that Disney and ABC would never change so gently caress em. It's not the value of the ticket, it's that they can't or won't even keep their word on simple poo poo so why would she expect them to do any better in the future? It's a bit like the M&Ms stories for rockstars and their touring venues.

That's the moment she realized that Disney and ABC would never change so gently caress em. similarly, though, the M&Ms thing looks ridiculous until you realize it was sandwiched in Van Halen's rider between a bunch of important "do this so EVH won't accidentally injure himself" or "do this so the stage won't burn down" or "do this so people can actually hear us properly" things. they didn't want to tell anyone until long after it was a non-issue, because then venue owners would get the trick and put out the M&Ms and half-rear end everything else, so in the meantime they just looked like absolute dickheads. these kinds of things need context or you just look like a petty rear end in a top hat, and we're still missing the kind of context on Shonda's situation that would make her not look like a petty rear end in a top hat.

If an executive is going to act so huffy over a request for a pass to an amusement park they own why would you have any confidence that they would support you in any endeavor? What if someone were assaulted or harassed? Why should Shonda Rhimes have faith that the company would respond to these issues if asking for another pass to their park would get such a response? Call it entitled if you want but I think it speaks of larger issues and it was as good as any reason to leave. e: It's one thing to deny a request, to say "sorry, we can't do that for you" but to ask "don't you have enough?" is pretty disgusting, especially considering it's coming from someone who undoubtedly makes more than 95% of people in the country. gently caress the executive class, they are leeches.

"Set in the 1844, the new season will follow an idealistic small-town preacher (Radcliffe) who teams up with a wanted outlaw (Buscemi) and a liberated prairie wife (Viswanathan) to lead a wagon train west on the Oregon Trail across an American landscape which, much like today, is fraught with both promise and peril."
