or is it?

 

I'm surprised that they're still releasing it in theaters and not shoveling it off to Hulu like with that Ben Affleck/Ana De Armas movie.

 

It’s a similar situation to what happened with West Side Story. It’s not the fault of anyone else involved with the film that he’s in it. The film was wrapped well before the story broke about him. People also assume it’s easy to do what they did with Christopher Plummer that time, but it really isn’t; it only worked in that movie because the character was largely confined to one location and didn’t interact with many of the other actors.

It sucks but it’s not fair to everyone else involved to shovel it off to a streaming service, or not release it at all, just because of one guy. And it’s not like he was still cast in the movie after what he did was publicly known.

Not saying I’ll be seeing it, I won’t, it just is a complicated situation.

 

I watched Ender's Game in theaters to support everyone else who made the movie even though OSC is part of a homophobic church iirc. Coming out as a trans lesbian, I'm not sure that was the right call anymore. I'm definitely not paying to see any Fantastic Beasts or other HP related media ever again

 

Yeah agree re: Harry Potter, that franchise is completely dead to me.

 

Director: ‘Bob’s Burgers’ Actor Jay Johnston Confessed He Was at the Capitol Riot

 

Still such an insane, unfortunate turn of events

 

Crazy that we are 2 weeks away from that being a year ago

 

You know, I saw a tweet about Jimmy Pesto being at the riot and I thought the show just took a real weird turn

 

Jimmy Pesto getting arrested at the capitol trying to advertise for his restaurant to own bob would be hilarious

 

Going to rehab for making women strip against their will

 

God that interview is a pain to read… I hate when they don’t just edit out the “ums” and repeated words when they’re clearly thinking of what to say, etc.

But whatever. I’m not in any kind of rush to see James Franco in the spotlight again. Im sure he did this interview because he’s about to announce a new movie or something soon so he needs to clear the air a bit first. Blah.

 

"he talks about why he stayed silent...and he confesses that the allegations were all true"

 

So is he admitting he lied and called the victims liars? Because he didn’t just stay silent he said their accounts were not accurate

 

what the fuck
