DC Murderverse posted:when its your daughter it doesn't matter how many of your peers are being complete loving pricks about it, you're gonna speak out. I'm 2 degrees of separation away from a lot of people in horror because of work I've done in the local film and TV community, so I have mutual friends on Facebook with people like Kane Hodder, Bill Moseley, and Rob Zombie (the most famous person I personally have on Facebook is J. Larose because I've worked on two projects with him, and his daughter went to my high school and is friends with my brother). Overall they're mostly regular dudes apart from that tinge of weirdness you need to have to be a middle aged man in the horror community.

zandert33 posted:Also looks like Dowd tried to create her own narrative (QT stating that Uma didn't even mention the spitting thing to her, Dowd got it from somebody else). In general, Dowd tries to create a narrative that I don't think Uma quite wanted. The way Tarantino tells it, they had been initially working together on getting the story out about the crash, her interactions with Weinstein, and how they intersected (including finding the footage of the crash together so she could publicize it). The choking and spitting weren't part of the story she provided at all, and were inserted by Dowd to create the impression that Tarantino is a lunatic getting off on hurting women. Speaking as someone who's worked on film and TV for 6 years, I believe Tarantino when he explains some of the story behind the crash. As director, he wouldn't have been personally responsible for the condition of the car and the negligence would lie in the people who converted it to an automatic and provided it to the set. A random teamster who had suspicions about the vehicle should have been talking to them, not slipping rumors to the actress.

Maxwell Lord posted:I do think a consideration was, KB was easily the most stunt-heavy project he'd done up until that point. It's possible the logistical complexity of that contributed to a breakdown in communication. Since then his stuff has featured some more elaborate setpieces (Death Proof most prominently) and there haven't been reports of recklessness or unnecessary endangerment so I think whatever lesson he did need to learn, he has. There was definitely some recklessness with a guitar on Kurt Russell's part recently...

When it comes to a collaborative effort like a film, I'm also loathe to try and erase it from history or retroactively condemn it because it's not a sole creation by one person. Roman Polanski was one of (according to IMDB) 41 actors and 84 crew members who put the film together. As terrible as he is, I'm sure the rest of the 125 people who worked on the film didn't assist him in his raping and deserve credit and recognition for their own contributions.

Bust Rodd posted:Tarantino is also exactly the kind of person discussed up thread: his fetishes so transparently influence his film-making, but he has created some masterpieces of cinema, so what can you do but accept maybe we’re all kind of pervs. I'm pretty confident at this point that as weird as Tarantino is, he's not actually abusing anyone. With the litany of Hollywood people being revealed as serial rapists, you know it would have already come out if Tarantino was one of them. I think he's just a weirdo pervert, but still has morals. And he does have legitimate reasons for doing things like personally choking or spitting on actresses that I'm pretty sure aren't just him living out fantasies.

Rose McGowan's case is a really awkward one from me, because on the one hand she's one of Harvey Weinstein's personal victims and he's continuing to try and ruin her life, but on the other hand she seems to also be kind of a lunatic herself and keeps torpedoing her own cause.

Howling Man posted:Rose McGowan is completely unhinged and I'm ready to see her either completely trash a dead person for not doing more or some bullshit, or she'll prop her up as a martyr to the bald lady gone crazy cause. There's no way she handles this well after screaming back and forth at a trans woman in Barnes and Noble. I don't think she has any coming back from that. Hecklers aren't exactly an uncommon occurrence, but she flew off the handle and turned it into a giant temper tantrum and profanity-laced rant against a woman who's part of a heavily discriminated class. This might be a Michael Richards moment for her.

Tars Tarkas posted:The idiot in the White House weighing in is especially weird considering he has been involved in a pretty high profile rape accusation case that he took out full page ads in a newspaper to support their executions and still seems to think they are guilty despite DNA evidence clearing them. It's a personal thing for him because he personally has faced countless accusations that keep cropping up in the media. It's beneficial for him to try and downplay rape culture because he's directly involved in it. I don't think his motive is any deeper than that. Trump is the apotheosis of someone existing and making decisions based entirely on shallow surface impulses without deeper meaning.

The only one of the Harry Potter kids that I think had any problems was the one who played Crabbe. He got booted from the last film and had his death scene switched to Goyle because he got arrested for pot possession. After that, he got arrested and jailed again for being caught looting and throwing Molotovs during the London riots. I don't think he ever did any acting outside of Harry Potter. Everyone else came out well-adjusted and expanding their careers. I think other than Radcliffe, Tom Felton and Emma Watson have the strongest careers out of the main cast. Evanna Lynch actually played Luna in one performance of the last Very Potter Musical.

You could be the fattest older woman wearing jeans and a huge t-shirt and some guy will whistle and say something sexual. You could be 10 and be dressed just like a kid, and some creep will stare at you like a steak (This did happen to me when I was in elementary school. Made my mother super angry). It's almost like the problem isn't that kids need to have their dress policed, but that men are raised in ways that encourage them to be creeps. Weird.

I should clarify that what he did was still lovely. I’m just saying there’s levels between “perfect saint” and “chronic rapist.” Robin Williams supposedly did crap like that to everyone, male and female. I don’t think he had any deeper motivation than being a goofball making dirty jokes.

I don’t think we’re quite at “The Cosby Show is now tainted” with Robin Williams. If something new and horrifying comes out about him, sure. Retroactively hate him. But you can’t really equate a guy who hosed with men and women as a dirty joke with a serial date rapist who drugged dozens of women.

I do think there's been some instances where auditioning someone at your house hasn't been a ploy, like when filmmakers want to cast their friends and just invite them over for a quick audition just to make sure. On the other hand, I'm not sure Harvey Weinstein actually had any friends who weren't fellow rapists.

Ubik_Lives posted:How so? How is your decision on having sex with someone impacted by a police operation you have no awareness of? Imagine if someone turned off the lights and switched out your husband with his brother, causing you to unknowingly have sex with someone you didn't want to. You consented, but only because of deception. You weren't even aware that you were being deceived (thanks to their unusually similar penises), but only found out later that you were tricked. Now imagine that they kept the lights on, and the thing they lied about is their identity. In fact, they used their government-granted power to craft a false identity that you would have sex with. You consented, but only because you were tricked into thinking the circumstances and identity of your partner were different. How should the second one be completely legal if the first one isn't?
