This is where we are at now: if you don’t post literally every single thing in your life on social media, you are “mysterious.”

Right? I’m hoping he’s a really nice and lovely person, because from where I’m sitting, he seems like a catch. Tall, pretty hot, keeps a low-profile... Jen, I get the appeal, girl.

What I think is weird about the Cooke Maroney thing is that some of the gossip sites I read this morning are calling him “mysterious.”

That’s the thing that’s bothering me the most. The story itself is pretty bad, but not unlike some horrible moments of epiphany many of us have in silence.

That he’s using this as a way to sell his movie and how he relates to his character is adding some extra level of grossness.

TIME hasn’t ever retracted that interview, they say they’ve got him on tape and he’s only threatened a libel suit that went nowhere. He hasn’t pressed the issue since then which frankly leads me to believe he’d rather everyone forgot about it rather than set the record straight.

Because he wasn’t thinking. Within the context of his new movie, and with several of his most recent movies, he plays exactly such a character looking for revenge. I can see him offering this as part of the idea of “this is the well I draw from when I play such characters.” But he didn’t take into account just how bad…

I would agree with you if Neeson was talking about finding THE rapist. But he was talking about killing a random dude based on the race of the person that raped his friend. That’s not natural.

That’s great. Now every Black co-star, grip, script assistant, makeup and wardrobe person has to feel a stomach-churn when they are around Neeson. This reminds me of the time Depardieu reminisced about when, as a youth,  he participated in a gang rape. But that was years ago, and he has grown so much since.  Really…

It would have been the easiest thing in the world to never say anything about this to anyone. There is not now, nor has there ever been, a victim to what Neeson did. Anyone actually observing him while he was out looking to commit a hate crime, it would have looked like he was just walking around fuming. In other…

Right!? I just read Neeson’s quote out loud to my office-mate. Her response:

I just don’t understand why he felt the need to ever tell this.

Also: can we recognise he took his friends assault and made it about him? Ugh

I’m sure Neeson’s agent and the producers of Cold Pursuit are in full agreement.

It doesn’t make it less disturbing. We are allowed to be disgusted and repulsed by his acknowledgement of those dark impulses.

Liam, I will tell you what I tell my 3 year-old...

We are all Tom Bateman...

Yeah, it’s in the original piece... he puts it in the context of N Ireland’s Troubles and revenge...

Let’s not confuse and cheapen the issue by making it about race.

Sometimes the courage it takes to admit you fucked up outweighs the actual fuck up.

What......?
