“In the settlement, Franco continued to deny the allegations.”

I’d note that this is how settlements work like 99% of the time. No acknowledgment of fault. I am surprised the number is public, though. Usually private party settlements are confidential. But with a number that high there’s usually real teeth to the…

As a woman, I wondered why now too. These women could have come forward in the earlier stages of the #metoo movement in 2017, each of their instances occurred before that time....or anytime before the release of this series when he appeared on The Equalizer, so why wait until this series aired? It’s because of the…

Laura Silverman dated Louis C.K. decades ago. And Jay Johnston also dated, a long time ago, national treasure Paget Brewster.

She had Johnston on her show over 12 years ago and knew him from the 90s alt comedy LA scene. He probably wasn’t the same guy back then, or at least didn’t show it considering he was a key player on Mr. Show too. People do change and sometimes that means they get more screwy as they get older.

Yeah, maybe from now on they’ll have the restraint to hold off on publishing stories until a paid editor has checked the text for misspellings, grammatical errors, and glaring factual errors.

You may recall Jay from this particular Sarah Silverman skit:

Since news of Johnston’s involvement was previously limited to officially unconfirmed industry scuttlebutt, I’m honestly impressed that The A.V. Club had the restraint to hold off on this story until there was something concrete to report on.

Only for about twenty-five or thirty years.

Ah, the “Stanley Kubrick’s Shining” of comic-book movies.

If the movie is reviving old favourites from the 2000s, it should definitely bring back fan favourite Big Pillar Of Light In The Sky for a cameo.

Does it end with an exhausting long, unfulfilling fight scene with questionable CGI like almost every recent comic book movie? Somehow I feel like I already know the answer.

That is true, but remember that actors are a breed unto themselves, and film and tv sets have an atmosphere that is very different from your average serious real job. Actors tend to be boisterous, playful, kind of obnoxious people who horse around a lot and make a lot of sex jokes and otherwise behave in a way that…

Most stories about this incident don’t go into great detail about the specific weapon Baldwin was handling. With a little digging I found that it was a clone of an 1873 Colt Single Action Army chambered for Colt .45 ammunition, made by an Italian arms maker called Pietta.

I’d imagine he does feel quite guilty about it. He’s likely traumatized by this as well. It also sounds like expensive lawyers are telling him how to handle this now to minimize the fallout.

Maybe this one was too on the nose?

I always imagine them as 4 brothers, and they were in a sense. And Ringo is the “normal” one who keeps the peace, rarely noticed, but when he speaks up or gets mad everyone notices.

The main thing seems to be that Jackson is a total Beatlemaniac, and he’s made a series for other Beatlemaniacs, of which there are many millions around the World. It’s not a dispassionate documentary. He loves these people, and has surrounded himself with their music his entire life. It was always going to be a…
