Things can be gross and inappropriate even if they are somehow not criminal. Spacey seems to admit repeatedly that he was aggressive and handsy with men with questionable interest in his attention. Stephen Fry also confirms that. That’s enough to find yourself out of work.

That’s what they do in the stage show, but the difference is the movie is presumably going to be 2 hours long. The second act of Wicked is about an hour shorter. So if they want to make Part 2 of the movie longer, they’re going to have to show more of Wizard of Oz because one of the main characters would literally be…

To be honest, this is the boring part of the book. There’s a reason the movie removed the Eastern Europe jaunt. 

I’m genuinely wondering if they are just going to straight up remake the Wizard of Oz because I don’t know what will be weirder: Wizard of Oz happening off camera or having to watch them try to recreate it. I also think the balance of music to plot is going to be super weird.

I mean I’m sure if they’d let him go play soldier he would:

That’s how 90% of graduations work, but unless you followed each of them to their smaller session, it’s hard to know what they as individuals did or didn’t do. It also was pretty clearly a specific protest against Seinfeld who likes to cosplay as an IDF soldier.

The sleuthing, however, wasn’t simply from watching the show and seeing a resemblance. It came from people going back several years to rifle through his tweets and finding that she had sent him a substantial number of tweets. That was how people deduced it was her. Not from anything Gadd said or from anything Netflix…

I think they mixed up the premiere date with the opening. 

I think they’re projecting $35 - $40 million, which seems feasible given I imagine IMAX tickets are meant to be significant part of it (and be priced higher as a result)

There was actually someone accused of being the rapist who was confirmed not to be the person as well as other speculation, but it definitely hasn’t been discovered in the same way.

Yes. There are claims that people had figured out it was her, but neither Netflix nor Gadd added to that speculation and Gadd actively told people not to go looking for the real people.

I don’t know if he just matured in the intervening years or if it’s just the different setting, but I actually really enjoy Marcel when he pops up on Food Network now.

Roseanne sent a racist tweet, but then people also pulled the receipts on a series of very questionable choices she had made along the way. She probably would have survived one tweet.

Supposedly, they let DJ go. He didn’t drop of his own accord.

The Edinburgh show used the real emails and the real voicemails.

No one involved is under any legal or moral obligation to change those things about the story. Frankly, if Richard Gadd had wanted to make a documentary, he could have. To call it Netflix’s failure assumes the onus was on them and I don’t think we’d be having this conversation if Gadd was a female survivor.

Imagine them writing that about a female stalking survivor...

That Netflix and producer Clerkenwell Films failed this dramatically in their duty of care toward the show’s subjects is awful.

I was talking about Cavill’s statements on the previous season’s press tour and his appearance on Happy Sad Confused podcast specifically this quote: “It’s just about belief. If you believe what you’re doing is the right thing then you’ll be able to keep on doing it. It’s also important to know that if you realise…

The rumor is that Kelli Giddish had year-over-year bonuses and raises (like most actors do) and they dropped her to save money. I doubt Hargitay was so supportive as to over to take less salary or threaten to leave the show.
