HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:I mean, the unspoken thing here is that Hollywood is jammed to the guts with marginally talented people who only have their jobs because of nepotism. There are many more Bryce Dallas Howards and Scott Eastwoods than Michael Douglases or whatever. Does anyone on earth think Gwenyth Paltrow is that talented? Would anyone else have gotten fourth and fifth chances at a career like Robert Downey Jr. if they didn't already know everybody in Hollywood from growing up around the industry? gently caress no. I mean sure but there are tons of marginally talented (or less) people floating around who weren't connected at all. Explain Sam Worthington, for example.

I guess, for me the big thing is that medical team or whatever that interviewed Dylan found no evidence of abuse. Of course, there's some serious weirdness surrounding that group too; it's a bit hard to get my head around. Anyway I don't think it's exactly an open and shut case, but my knowledge is based on like 3 hours of Internet research a few years ago so I could be completely off base.

Tars Tarkas posted:I'm betting at least some of the women defending Aziz are because they've been in similar uncomfortable situations and don't want to go down a path that means they have to admit to themselves they were sexually assaulted. And some of those situations might not be sexual assault, just people who can't communicate because US society is entirely stupid on sexuality and communications. This is way more nuanced than "bad man did bad thing" but it isn't something to be easily dismissed or rejected and the people who are doing that are doing just as much as a disservice as the people defending Weinstein et al. Add to that a mixture of clickbait titles and articles on both sides and you got yourself a messy stew. By not focusing on these accusations we are eliminating the potential for a discussion on consent that is needed, but also people will get very defensive about. Not to defend old Aziz, but a friend of mine doesn't like the idea of calling what he did sexual assault because she was sexually assaulted in a much more violent way and she thinks it diminishes the term.

I mean, loving certain high schoolers is legal in plenty of the United States, and Canada. Not to say those laws are good and enlightened of course, or that they entirely reflect social mores. I don't even want to think about Europe.Das Boo posted:I'm just trying to figure out what kind of masterful spin one puts on "had sex with a 13 year-old" to make someone think, "Oh, well that's not so bad." "She forgave him" or whatever has been part of it, I think.

Not Operator posted:Is anyone else baffled by the (hollywood reporter) article that guy referenced to start that conversation, that because of MeToo and the Weinstein accusations, Hollywood might be too scared to do romance or sex in movies anymore? I mean that's a pretty standard reaction to this kind of discussion--"Oh you want people to sign loving contracts every time they have sex?!" I hadn't heard that particular take though.

Phylodox posted:Single White Female is a movie in which Bridget Fonda advertises for a new roommate (the eponymous single white female), an ad which Jennifer Jason Leigh answers. Then Jennifer Jason Lee slowly begins to emulate Fonda in an attempt to subvert her and take over her life. The phrase “single white female” became a kind of cultural shorthand for a person mimicking someone else, usually with ominous, obsessive overtones. Pretty racist to specify race like that...

Yeah I can't give any points to someone who apologizes after the story is out and irrefutable. Like if sixth months prior out of the blue (although not really because the rumors had been around a while) he'd been like, "America, I am an awful person and a sexual criminal," he'd get (a little) cred for that. Wonder why that never happens... Also not for nothing but even his "good apology" includes some "Well, I had my reasons" language. porfiria fucked around with this message at 19:37 on Aug 28, 2018 |

Krankenstyle posted:Yeah, these people who make a living saying things in very specific ways in order to illicit certain reactions are completely unaware of the potential consequences of what they say. Silverman just opens her mouth and a series of random words spill out that to her have no relation to anything past, present, or future. If someone takes what she says as an absolution of CK, that is completely unexpected and it is ludicrous to assume that any of them could have even thought of it at all. There's a pretty big distance between Sarah Silverman having crippling aphasia and a planned PR push however. I know Adam Curtis has turned everyone into conspiracy theorists, but really who cares if it's a PR push? The truth is, given the venue and the nature of the comments, it's clear Sarah Silverman has mixed feelings about CK and is struggling to reconcile her personal experiences and relationship with the guy with the Bad Things He Did. Of course, it's entirely possible the clickbait headlines will end up doing Louis some PR good. The only difference the conspiracy makes is how evil you think Sarah Silverman is. So then the question becomes why are you obsessed with a celebrity's interior life?

Bill Burr strikes me as more of a provocateur than a reactionary, although I won't defend a lot of his stuff. He's the kind of guy that prefers Bernie to Hillary because Hillary's "too liberal." His rant about Steve Jobs is great though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ew6fv9UUlQ8 As is his close reading of One Punch Man. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4WQal7L2Cw porfiria fucked around with this message at 05:37 on Dec 14, 2018 |

If you're going to be a transphobic comedian, at least come up with better material than "I identify as an attack helicopter" poo poo. Like, when the Internet memes are beating you to joke-punch by about five years you're in serious trouble. Chapelle's reactionary conservative crap was way better than that.
