By all accounts, Spacey has basically been a harasser since before he was famous and allegedly right up through his final season on House of Cards. Wahlberg did evil things when he was young but appears to have really changed his life, so I think there is a difference. It bugs me that Wahlberg didn’t directly seek…

Enormous. There’s a reason no one else has ever tried to do anything like this on this kind of schedule. A few last-minute inserts here and there? Sure. But replacing an entire major character after the film has already wrapped — remember, it was supposed to have its premiere *next week* — to make a release date…

Are they going to release a new trailer? It would be kind of hilarious if the only trailers that exist for this movie heavily feature an actor that got cut out of it.

I just can’t get over the fact that Ridely Scott is going to turn 80 while these reshoots are taking place. Can you imagine how much work and stress it will involve to completely reconstruct the necessary sets/locations, rehearse a completely new actor, pull all the major co-stars out of whatever they’d planned to do…

“That means this won’t be a huge issue logistically”

Well. I can’t think of a single worst thing on this planet to be right now than Kevin Spacey. Nothing even approaches the disgust and loathing he deservedly must feel.

Woah so edgy

Got to hand it to Spielberg—he’s taken staring at printing presses going full blast made look interesting. It reminded me of Moneyball—making spreadsheets bafflingly cool. (I wonder if the flick will have a prologue and set the stage of the movie—explaining what Vietnam was and what is a printing press to the kids.)

This is a slam-motherfuckin’-dunk movie to take the parents to during Christmas. Thank you for delivering, Spielberg.

I usually eschew “event” films by major studios but I want to see this. Seems like an All the President’s Men bookend. And c’mon, Streep and Hanks plus those co-stars. David Cross? Bob Odenkirk? Sarah Paulson? Jesse Plemons? Sure, im there.

If you read the LA Times article, you will see that there are multiple corroborating witnesses for some of the claims. Ratner recognized the incident in the trailer from Munn’s description, which left out names and identifiers. He said on TV that he had “banged” Olivia Munn, then later admitted it was a lie, which is…

At what point does mere flirting (no matter how awkward) turn into harassment?

“At what point does mere flirting (no matter how awkward) turn into harassment?”

Keanu Reeves maybe? Probably Tom Hanks.

I used the terms ‘account’ and ‘sounds like’ . That should suffice.

I wonder how many of these repugnant fucks are shitting themselves right now in fear that their names are going to come up next.

I know. From Henstridge’s account that sounds like rape. Not ‘mere’ harassment or ‘sexual misconduct’.

Even if you take Ratner’s version of the story for each of these encounters, he’s still a fucking creep. He bragged about “banging” a woman, then made a crack about her ethnicity? For fuck’s sake.

I know people don’t want to get sued, but Henstridge said Ratner raped her. Brett is a rapist, not just a sexual harasser/ assaulter according to the allegations.

All of a sudden Brett Ratner “Big Butt Book” meme has lost all sense of humor. Possibly we all should have recognized the blurred lines that are rapscallion/lothario to sexual harasser
