Re: Edit: Hollywood Sexual Harassment Allegations
And again I saw this as no fan of James Gunn. He seems like an asshole.

Re: Edit: Hollywood Sexual Harassment Allegations
So-called "libs" are eating their own right now for even the appearance of impropriety, while whatever you call the other side (nazis/nazi-sympathizers seems accurate) happily defend people *actually accused* of rape/molestation/pedophilia by multiple sources.
Now, I'm definitely not in the camp that a simple allegation=truth but when you get into several people spanning years/locations it becomes more obtuse to simply say "they wouldn't do that." So, again, Gunn being fired for jokes from years ago is nonsense. There is no argument *for* his firing that isn't simply thought-police trying to exert their power. I find a group of lunatics with their heads up their ass trying to control what other people say/think (10 years ago...) more offensive than jokes people made previously.
No matter, I will not be seeing any future Marvel movies. They were already annoying me lately with their lame Infinity War bullshit and Disney has kindly demonstrated they don't deserve any further money from me. In fact, having perused BV's output the last several years I'm actually going as far as all of their movies--no more for me and I won't miss a step.

And the liberal is a professional comedy writer. What does him having or not having children have to do with anything?? If anything a successful middle aged man with no children is a bit odd...

That was a reference to Algren's question a page back re: why I thought Trump making weird/gross comments about his actual living, breathing daughter was worse than Gunn's tweets.

Re: Edit: Hollywood Sexual Harassment Allegations
Dave Bautista is being very open about the James Gunn issue. Last night, he said it's nauseating working for someone [Disney] who empowers a smear campaign by fascists.

Re: Edit: Hollywood Sexual Harassment Allegations
I'd assume that word came down that Disney' decision is final.
Meanwhile John Lasseter, an actual predator, confirms and apologizes for his "misteps" and the studio gives him a consulting gig and (undoubtedly) a massive golden parachute.

Re: Edit: Hollywood Sexual Harassment Allegations
Gunn is an arrogant dick, but he shouldn't have been fired.
America is so divided it is incredible. However, so much is down to pure stupidity as opposed to any intelligent reasons.
Climate change deniers, racists, hypocritical Christians, hypocrites in general, conspiracy theorists, gun nuts...from the outside, it pretty much looks like half the country are uneducated idiots. The amount of stupidity is astounding.

Re: Edit: Hollywood Sexual Harassment Allegations
I never watched any interviews or something with him, and you're not the first one to say it either, but what makes him such an arrogant dick?

Just how he carries himself in interviews, answers questions, etc. I get a big "asshole" vibe. Even his Tweets seem condescending.

Typical SJW! You never mentioned any disdain for the man before this recent controversy, but now he's an asshole. Sure.

Surprised Disney gave Morgan Freeman such prominence on the poster. Thought they may have made him really small or not shown him at all.

We're required to have a history of expressing our personal thoughts about every actor/director/producer, etc. prior to them being in the news? The shortcut: anyone in a position of power in Hollywood...regardless of gender, race, sexual preference, etc...has a very good chance of being an asshole. The vast majority do not get to that level without stepping on a lot of people. Same with most industries.

Re: Edit: Hollywood Sexual Harassment Allegations
So, now that AMC & NBC have cleared Hardwick to return to shows Chloe whatever decides to--once again--poke the beehive with statements of how she still has proof of his misdeeds but simply chooses not to release it. She just wants to get on with her life--but at the same time she wants to hit the "rapist" button again without following through in any respect. Which is it? You simply want to move on with your life and not participate with prosecution in any respect, or you want to prove your statements with this evidence you claim exists and bring your abuser to justice?
What other instance is there where an accuser can come forward with statements of abuse/rape while specifically claiming to have proof of the alleged crime, yet then follow up the accusation with "but I won't be releasing the evidence--simply believe my statements as fact. Because you have to"? How does nobody find that EXTREMELY suspect??

Re: Edit: Hollywood Sexual Harassment Allegations
Totally. This Chloe just wants attention. Hardwick's former girlfriends and his wife all said he was fine. This Chloe is just a stupid little bitch with no talent and no prospects.

Hah, no. They're just all from elementary school. Hard to break ties.
But hey, at least I don't drive them away like you.
