    You know, I never really followed what Roman Polanski was said to have done until the other day. Drugged and anally raped a 13 year old and you had Harvey Weinstein in a piece in 2012ish saying he needs to be forgiven.

    These things are just blatant when you look back. Complete sick fucks

    I might throw in a #metoo as well, just to get in early if there's a civil case coming.

    I think it's back to your point that inferred that when it comes to "the arts" it's somehow more acceptable.

    There was even a Hollywood petition in favour of Polanski FFS. Which people were just signing without even reading or understanding - even Emma Thompson got in on the act for crying out loud.

    Fair play to him for having porn on his computer in 2008, for a man his age that shows a rare insight into the workings of the internet.

    And pity the poor bugger who apparently groped and exposed himself (?) to Emily Thornberry.

    Hold on, just normal porn? How is that even newsworthy, let alone a "smear" against him?

Which isn't even to mention all of the other shit that's no doubt gone on that we don't know about yet.

    I don't know Bradley Cooper (I'm Yevrah), but if I ever meet him I shall certainly remonstrate with him.
    That's what I was thinking of. Anyone even remotely surprised by the cynicism behind all of this must have forgotten Gibson being shunned by a franchise partly built around a cameo from a convicted rapist.

    Just had a quick Google and turns out he has two daughters. I had in my head it would be hilarious if this all stemmed from him letting his son use his computer during the "horny little bastard" Years. Seemingly not.

    Hollywood directors do have a fairly horrible position - any aspiring actress can be sweet talked with complete lies into bed with the carrot of a promise of a role or big break. Only to not follow through. There will be loads of examples of that from shady decision men, whether that's "rape" or "sexual assault" im not sure.

    Should clarify the above to state that based on what has been alleged against Weinstein and spacey they are both in for some rather frosty criminal investigations, and rightly so.

    Of course not. Anything unconsensual or involving minors is a completely separate point.

    I was saying there's going to be an out pouring of "he's a dodgy bastard who I slept with to get a job I didn't get". I don't think that should be part of a criminal investigaton - guys have been lying to girls to get into their pants for generations. That's more of a violation of company policy and grounds for dismissal - of which he's already been.

    You answered your own question. It is the myriad of of large institutional cover ups: Catholic Church, Penn State, Cosby, Fox News, and Hastert which all lowered the bar. That and half the country hearing the Access Hollywood tape and it not mattering have made women in their 30's and 40's a bit pissed. They are not as willing to let the system sort itself.

    In that saying they are in a position where they can exploit aspiring actresses if they're complete wronguns? The point I was making is that they have the opportunity to exploit them (offering them things they obviously don't have any intention of pursuing) because of the position they are in. I have no sympathy for these guys being outed and disciplined appropriately if that's what they've been doing.

    I get the impression Foe meant something different to how that reads.

    I.e. not that the position is horrible for the poor director, but that's it's a horrible idea to give that position to someone who is a pervert because of the opportunities it gives them to abuse people. If the latter is what he meant then it is very poorly worded.

    Foe has lolled about having surreptitiously removed a condom in the past. He's stupid enough that he may have just badly bungled an attempt to say what you suggest, but it's not out of the question that he has sympathy for the predators here.

    These allegations are a bit lame. If Kevin Spacey bought me some drinks and then grabbed by balls I would stick the Toby on him and then use the 'ordeal' as my go-to lol story for the rest of my life. Sitting there and acting as if you're a rape victim is embarrassing.

    Jeffrey Tambor is copping it now having apparently made 'inappropriate remarks' to his 'trans-woman' assistant on the set of Transparent.

    My first thought on this one is that he's probably just asked how she pisses or something for performance reasons and the moment has everyone recontextualising every interaction they've ever had with someone famous. Probably the first of the bunch that I haven't just immediately thought sounds correct.

    Saw Charlie Sheen trending on Twitter and wondered what drug fuelled thing he'd done this time. But he apparently raped a young Corey Haim back in the 80's when the kid was 13 years old.

    The fuck is wrong with these people?

    I happened to have an episode of Cheers on earlier in which a Corey Feldman of about that age made a brief appearance as I read that story on my phone. It's beyond me.

    You can't win with some trans people anyway. "You didn't use my correct pronoun. I'm not gay. I'm a lesbian in the body of a man, etc..."

    I imagine there are very, very few actors that aren’t hideous human beings in one form or another. Just shut down Hollywood and have never ending episodes of You’ve Been Framed on.
