Agreed. It always amazes me that for years, in many countries including the US, “gay panic” defense was OK. Like, if you think a gay guy was hitting on you, you could kill him and the courts would treat it like self defense. That’s how dangerous purely theoretical unwanted sexual attention was. But a man does is to a…

Thank you. An 11 year old is a sixth grader. It’s disgusting that that many adults witnessed the incident and decided not to go to the police.

I love that he said he wants to be Louis’ friend. It’s so easy to be a holier than thou jerkoff right now. Those are the people who don’t impress me. I’m sure they are all quite perfect.

“Sean Penn, already acclaimed for his landmark work in film and journalism...”

It is, however, young enough for manipulative adults to convince a child that what happened didn’t really happen.

Dwarves are better than elves. Peter Jackson evidently doesn’t agree, which is one of the problems with The Hobbit movies.

Do they have hair on their shafts like they do on the tops of their feet?

Classic Sizemore.

Gratuitous Hobbit nudity. Like, if you think it’s too much, that’s when it’s time for more dong.

Gator Gator, Jr. Jr. must be some sort of psychedelic/indie/punk band already

Just don’t let Oliver Stone make it first...

More power to Maron for saying he will remains friends, I am sure he will take a hit or two for that but little short of shunning these creeps from society and casting them away to some kind of predator island they are going to need rehabilitation (and I mean to their personality not their reputation here) and to you…

I’m pleased Maron seems to be a good guy. I love him in “G.L.O.W.”

The Avengers ask Christopher Plummer to take over operation of the Iron Man suit.

Well, if this is the case, it’s just a matter of time before it comes out that Tony Stark jerked off in front of Squirrel Girl.

I think the idea of superheroes as celebrities was woven into Marvel Comics almost from its inception, but it was more reflective of the cheek by jowl way all strata of society coexisted in the New York of the ‘60s (Marvel’s dominant fictionalized milieu) than Hollywood. Superheroes were regularly idolized and/or…
