Accountability in Entertainment • Page 31

For those questioning Hardwick's appeal, I've always thought it was akin to The Big Bang Theory. It doesn't matter what the quality is, it matters that it's about nerd stuff. "This show mentioned Thundercats? I can connect with that because I have also mentioned Thundercats!" Etc, etc.

Hardwick started in nerd culture right before it became more mainstream and now it, quite painfully, shows. There are a lot of celebrities out there that are very vocal about embracing their passion for games and comics, etc. Aisha Tyler is a great example.

 

That was awkward af. Nathan For You level

 

(It's satire... that's not actually Chris Hardwick)

 

I hoped so lol

 

Rosanne says she also has brown skin...

 

No Seth

 

This is a relevant skit from SNL

white men gonna disappoint

 

Then end is cut off. It should read “blackface”.

 

This breaks my heart. Lost is one of my favorite shows and the fact that Kate’s terrible development wasn’t just bad writing but purposefully ignoring her attempts to keep her realistic and empowering is just awful.

 

"Sources linked to the production company, Good Universe, insisted to TMZ that it wasn’t a “blackface” situation and that it’s “not uncommon for lighting purposes to match actors’ skin tones.”'

I went to film school and have some friends in makeup and special effects, etc. I'm going to ask how this is usually handled. Although the picture they showed didn't really look like smoothly applied makeup for lighting, but I don't really know.

 

fuck this guy

 

And all about a show in Virginia Beach. That adds another layer of disgust from me.

 

The Shadow Rulers of the VA — ProPublica

According to ProPublica, Perlmutter is one of three wealthy members of Trump’s Florida getaway, Mar-A-Lago, who are actively shaping policies affecting millions of American veterans. Internal documents obtained by ProPublica show Perlmutter involved in “all manner of policy and personnel decisions” related to the VA, and has gone as far to give specific directives to government officials. Those officials who did not follow through on those directives were reportedly shown the door — such was the case for the VA’s former deputy secretary, chief of staff, acting under secretary for health, deputy under secretary for health, chief information officer, and the director of electronic health records modernization.

 

Warner Bros. and Other Studios Reportedly Interested in James Gunn

 

I kinda hope he directs a DC Universe movie.

 

Sigh but not surprising

 

Last year, Lohan defended Harvey Weinstein in an Instagram video. The disgraced producer was accused of sexual misconduct by more than 80 women following twin exposés in The New Yorker and New York Times, published last fall. He has since vehemently denied any allegations of nonconsensual sex.

"I feel very bad for Harvey Weinstein right now. I don't think it's right what's going on. He's never harmed me or did anything to me," she said at the time. "We've done several movies together. I think everyone needs to stop. I think it's wrong. So, stand up.

oh no

 

Tbh I feel like Lindsay lohans perspective would be so warped on this issue that I wouldn't even think to ask her about it. She probably has so much trauma to work thru about her Hollywood experiences that she hasn't rly addressed that idk. Obv what she said isn't ok at all but I feel like her perspective would just be sooooo off

 

He seems to skirt around acknowledging his victims
