Amen amen amen. She's so likable that she manages to endear Christian Slater to the audience in True Romance just by force of how believable her adoration for him is. And he's Christian Slater! Also, I literally fell in love with her in Ed Wood.

"Rude things" awww

Still enough for me to be scared

I'm sorry, I'd engage with this, but I saw your post further down in this thread that said that it was totally understandable and perhaps justifiable for NK to threaten terrorism and now I'm just kinda scared of you

Holy cow. You's one crazy mofo.

This argument treats the totalitarian dictator of North Korea as though he's a legitimate world leader, and that makes me queasy.

Sure, and I don't think anyone's got a problem with journalists writing about the fact that Sony got hacked. I just don't think you can make publishing gossip and trivial conversations sound all that moral. I dunno. I do appear to be in the minority, so I'm willing to grant I could be wrong.

A guy made lame jokes to a friend, and because he was singed into his work email, the gossipers who publish it are like the Enron whistleblowers? You may be right but that doesn't exactly have the sheen of justice to it

You had said Mexico, sorry. I'm very grateful for corporate whistle blowers, who ostensibly are blowing the whistle on criminal activity, and for Wikileaks, which helped what is ostensibly an open democratic government be more open and democratic. That's light years away from anything that got revealed in the Sony…

Not robbing people of their right to privacy for no good reason, would be my suggestion

You're saying "you guys" and "your work" meaning like, Americans? Not sure what that's about, so moving right along…

Ha, forgot Geraldo did it too. Not the guy I'm thinking about, though it does invalidate my example. Anyone else recall who I mean? I seem to recall he was British and tubby

Nothing in it was newsworthy. A private citizen's private thoughts, no matter how stupid, are none of anyone's business when expressed privately. They make movies not domestic policy

Remember that reporter embedded with the troops during the Iraq War who drew a map of troop positions in the sand? I can't even recall his name he disappeared from journalism so fast. I mean, that's a much worse betrayal of information but it was still a case of decency being upheld without formal punishment, he was…

Not for writing about the leaks, for publishing what was leaked. Which was aiding and abetting those children throwing the tantrum. I think there should be some repercussions for that.

Oh because… what the terrorists really want is to attack theaters? Is that what you mean? It seemed like what they wanted was to get the movie pulled. I mean, that was my read.

Wait, which way aren't they letting the terrorists win?

It wasn't to get the charges dropped so much as to protest his arrest at a film festival, which they seem to consider some kind of sacred ground? Anyway, it sure reads like they probably do want the charges dropped.

Who is arguing that becoming a victim grants you the right to become a victimizer?

Eesh. You're probably on more solid ground doing the sarcastic drawn-out pronunciation on "artist" than you are on "murdered".
