Moby was old and irrelevant enough I only knew about him because of jokes about his irrelevance. And I'm in my thirties. You both are just old.

It’s understandable that anyone under 40 wouldn’t remember Moby since he hasn’t done much in the last 20 years

They still use that one song in the Bourne movies I guess.

I'm 25 and mostly know Moby as an almost comically uncool bald douche from Achewood jokes. e: He's basically "what if NoHo Hank was also Bono"

His music was fuckin everywhere though. Everyone has heard a Moby song even if they don't know it.

Krankenstyle posted:He and Joss Whedon should get together some time, see what happens Lol, this was recently posted in the PYF TV episodes that haven't aged well thread regarding Firefly: Tim Minnear posted:[Inara] had this magic syringe. She would take this drug. And if she were, for instance, raped, the rapist would die a horrible death. The story was that she gets kidnapped by Reavers and when Mal finally got to the ship to save her from the Reavers, he gets on the Reaver ship and all the Reavers are dead. Which would suggest a kind of really bad assault. At the end of the episode, he comes in after she's been horribly brutalized, and he comes in and he gets down on his knee, and he takes her hand. And he treats her like a lady. And that's the kind of stuff that we wanted to do. It was very dark. And this was actually the first story that Joss pitched to me when he asked me to come work on the show. He said, 'These are the kind of stories we're going to do.' Here's the post to the quote from the thread:

I wish I didn't know who Moby is, but I had friend in high school who loved Play and listened to it all the time when I was over. Then that stupid Gwen Stefani song came out and played on the radio 24/7.

I assume it hasn’t been mentioned because nobody here (including me) has heard of this guy before, but this dude Jason Mitchell was dropped a few days ago by his agency, his management company, and a Netflix movie and a TV show over sexual misconduct allegations. https://deadline.com/2019/05/jason-mitchell-fired-uta-authentic-dropped-the-chi-desperados-misconduct-allegations-1202618811/ According to another article with more details, the misconduct in question is sexual harassment alleged by multiple actresses. One actress he worked opposite apparently went to the producers of the show multiple times to complain about Mitchell’s behavior, and resorted to having her fiance come to the set whenever she was filming with him to try and get him to back off. But he didn’t, and so she told the producers she could no longer work with him and quit. They let her quit rather than firing him. He’s fired now, but it tells you a lot about how these things continue to be treated in Hollywood. https://www.essence.com/celebrity/the-chis-jason-mitchell-dropped-by-show-and-agent-due-to-sexual-harassment-allegations/

DC Murderverse posted:someone pointed out that Moby is not the first guy who acted super loving creepy towards Natalie Portman and let the public know about it, because there was that one dipshit who thought they were gonna leave their spouses for each other and she was just like "uh, no, gently caress you, what?" that was author jonathan safran foer, and their correspondence really illustrates how pathetic he is

Moby being a (tiny) huge creep is not surprising. Animal Rights is still a great album though. But I guess in retrospect an album of Moby doing weird metal songs about how horny he was could've been a bad sign.

NY Times posted:Harvey Weinstein and his former studio’s board members have reached a tentative $44 million deal to resolve lawsuits filed by women who accused him of sexual misconduct and by the New York State attorney general, according to three people briefed on the matter. quote:Under the proposed terms of the new deal, about $30 million would go to a pool of plaintiffs that includes alleged victims, creditors of Mr. Weinstein’s former studio and some former employees, according to the people briefed on the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the agreement was private. The balance would go to legal fees for associates of Mr. Weinstein, including board members named as defendants in lawsuits.

You may remember Abdellatif Kechiche from the time he directed Blue is the Warmest Color and the stars went on record saying they never wanted to work with him again due to him being an exploitative abusive gently caress https://amp.theguardian.com/film/2013/sep/04/blue-is-the-warmest-colour-actors-director Or from the time he was accused of sexual assault last June https://www.theguardian.com/film/2018/oct/31/blue-is-the-warmest-colour-director-abdellatif-kechiche The latest saga involves his newest film, where he pressured the actors to perform a near-15 minute scene of unsimulated oral https://www.indiewire.com/2019/05/mektoub-my-love-intermezzo-unsimulated-sex-alcohol-report-abdellatif-kechiche-1202144998/ quote:In the scene in question, a man performs consensual oral sex on the character Ophélie. The Midi Libre posted an account Saturday morning from a person close to production who says that Kechiche had to push his actors to create that scene. A tweet translating part of the publication reads: ”Kechiche absolutely wanted a non-simulated sex scene, something the actors didn’t want to do. But by the way of insistence, and over time and with alcohol being regularly consumed, he managed to get what he wanted.”

got any sevens posted:Why doesnt he just do pure porn ffs I assume, based off the other statements about him, because part of the appeal to him is having power to force people to do what he wants when they don't want to. The fact it was sexual was probably secondary to him over the fact it gave him power.

Screw “it was for the movie” or “it was for art” or any other excuse the guy might come up with; he pressured actors and actresses into performing sex acts. If there was any justice then this combined with the other allegations ought to get him blacklisted, but I’m sure it won’t.

Even though it apparently didn't go as far as this, Harvey Weinstein infamously forced Selma Hayek to add a full frontal lesbian sex scene to Frida as payback for her rejecting his advances, so I'm guessing more of this kind of poo poo happens than we know about.

Fair enough, but also I think some posters here are right in assuming that this guy is getting off on this poo poo because of the abuse of power. It's probably a bigger thrill for him to coerce non-sex workers into hurting each other or performing sex acts on camera. But yeah, that poo poo goes on in porn too and it's equally bad to do it there. The guy doesn't need a new line of work, he needs to be in jail or at least out-of-work.
