Well, they aren’t suing her for writing to SAG. It’s for costing the production money and, currently, preventing it from being distributed. This being the AV Club, they of course focused mainly on the allegations against Eckhart and not the substance of the suit. This is from Entertainment Tonight’s recap online:

Not really. He's not fully identified to people who didn't know him and he died before the writer of the exposé published it. Better to have the record corrected than be lied about with no rebuttal.

No no this isn’t an entirely legitimate literary practise of taking real world anecdotes, experiences and personalities and crafting a story. It’s that Roupenian singled out a real person and attributed misogynistic behavior to them with no evidence or even first hand experience. And the original story was far more…

Roupenian is a fucking scumbag. She based the characters on two real people and put a great deal of their personal details into the story making them recognisable to anyone who knew them but then entirely made up all the negative stuff that went on, so to the people who knew the couple they’d assume this is what the…

Imagine being such an idiot that a person would conflate pulling someone over for expired tags with a person stopping in a traffic lane to get out and hit another person’s car, as though those 2 circumstances are at all related.

This tracks. Baruchel’s from one of the roughest parts of Montréal, and Hill is a Hollywood legacy case.

You missed the Crafter’s use: dryer lint makes GREAT stuffing for pillows and “plushies.”

You can say you tweaked lines or plused things a little... but publicly badmouthing your co-workers work, which is kinda a dick move.

personally Heard triggered memories of my own trauma, also being abused by the female in my relationship, and heard’s words and actions mirrored the abuse kristie would level towards me.
to this day my wife hates that I am constantly apologizing for things that aren’t my fault.
i am a strong man and the woman who abused…

I would like to banish Heard and Depp to a desert island and never hear about either of them ever again please.

I would say the majority of the internet doesn’t understand that the law suit is for defamation, or what the elements of defamation are. That really skews the various takes. It also doesn’t help that the media benefits most by focusing on the more scandalous aspects of the case, rather than educating their audiences…

I wish people would come to terms with the fact that “believing a woman when they come forward with abuse claims” is not synonymous with “liking that woman on a personal level”.

It might be hoping for too much to make a movie about a peripheral character from the peripheral superhero nobody really cares that much about to begin with. Kind of a sub-sub-genre?

This is amusing since Depp’s fanbase was crowing about how Wan and Momoa unfollowed Heard on social media a few days ago. And Twitter has been circulating a video of Momoa avoiding a hug from Heard during the press tour for Aquaman.

They’ve gotten very tribal around here. You can like Olivia Wilde or Booksmart or Harry Styles or House and not feel you need to defend Olivia Wilde’s honor rabidly from any possible slight. You can not like the Kardashians but also not take up for Blac Chyna. I don’t want to even touch the Heard/Depp thing.

She had a 4 hour interview to see if they wanted to hire her for the job. It wasn’t merely her competency, but her discretion, her comfort testifying on stand (which can be frightening), etc. This interview was held over a meal, and she said she had one Moscow Mule. The entire legal team was there, as was Johnny. The…

No, but at the same time she made accusations that destroyed his career, and her own hasn’t suffered.

It’s entirely possible she was ducking and the process server had tried in the past to get to her in a less high profile moment. She could be the asshole here.

Also, I’m feeling an attitude of ‘how dare he go after her for custody’. Since they weren’t married, they may not have had a formal agreement filed with the…

It’s NOT bullshit. I’ve worked with process servers in the past. The stuff you see on tv about them doing whatever it takes to serve papers is basically true. They will dress up as delivery guys, pretend to be clients, raging fans, etc. to get the job done. Sudeikis would have no say on the matter regarding that. That…

Love the insane vibes here. “Sure she cheated and destroyed their relationship, but she was really Inconvenienced by this :( :( :( “
