have any of the Avengers jumped to his defense or have they been quiet?  

Or, she legally can’t give out any specifics.  All the vagueness in these stories about Whedon on the JL set just reek of lawyers censoring the actors.

“All the great art in history was created by private equity groups. They are the unsung heroes toiling away in the trenches, forever doomed to be cast as the villains, but never failing in their task to enlighten the world.”

-Excerpt from his upcoming biography, Misunderstood, by Jim Spanfeller

So, what you’re saying is Joss Whedon is possessed by the ghost of President Lyndon B. Johnson?!

Maybe there is an ongoing investigation and their lawyers tell them they can’t say anything that could jeopardize their cases? Or maybe they just don’t want to talk about it with a million strangers?

I mean, it likely helped that Joss Whedon himself had become a punching bag by that point. If this was pre-Age of Ultron Whedon, neither of them would have likely spoken out.

To those that wonder why everyone is being so vague, my best guess is that there are some legal, contractual issues preventing full public disclosure. Nevertheless, I appreciate Gal Godot sharing enough to explain why she finds Ray Fisher’s claims to be plausible, and I’m guessing Mr. Fisher does as well.

I’m betting the experience she’s talking about is the thing that was widely reported some months ago: that she objected to the whole gag with Flash falling into Wonder Woman’s cleavage, and that that was resolved by having her stuntwoman perform that scene.

AV Club comment section’s slow lurch from defending their Best Lil Nerd Boy Whedon & dunking on Fisher to reluctantly admitting Joss is probably a totall piece of shit has been fun to watch

LoL yes exactly. My imagination is running the gamut from “Joss Whedon is not as nice as he seems on camera” to “Joss Whedon dropped the N-bomb left and right and then whipped out his balls.” 

I started to wonder that, but in an industry that’s probably overflowing with demanding pricks, Whedon was enough of one that several members of the onscreen talent felt strongly enough about it to speak out. Fisher had a relatively low profile before JL and after JL he seems to be best known as “the guy who is really…

No, the annoyance is probably real.  It may not look like work to you, but writing for a pop culture website owned by a private equity group sounds like a shit job to me.

To be fair, every pop culture site is posting about that trash heap.

His lifestyle and Covid denial should have killed him already. Yet he persists.

Reading the comments section of Jezebel makes me sick. Why do these people go to bat for monsters like this?

#MeToo was already lying in a ditch after the Biden campaign. Liberal support for Cuomo is about to back back over it to make sure it’s dead.

I 100% believe her bc I have seen how he interacts with women during his COVID briefings - and it is offensive and it is on video in front of the world. No doubt it could be worse when things are more private.

See, that’s the thing. It don’t matter if MLK was resurrected and had part of this: too many folks remember Tuskegee and Henrietta.  We KNOW how we are treated by the medical establishment, and asking us to trust and to trust quick is asking a bit much.  Especially our older folks, some of who still think they blessed…

Um..so what? It’s cool that a sister worked on it and everything, but so what? People will take it when they’re good and ready and you’ll just have to deal.

Also thanks to Henrietta Lacks.
