Yeah, this seems like a completely relatable response to the situation. Here’s something that has been professionally rewarding and he’s having a blast, then it all crashes due to a tragedy. I also expect there was some measure of catharsis for all involved in finishing the film.

I worked a construction site for a summer in college where a mall was being built (this was obviously a while ago) and on Fridays pretty much everyone brought a six pack that they killed during a half-hour lunch. Including the guys hauling ass around the site on earth-moving equipment, and I was on the survey crew…

I worked a summer at an event production company (setting up tents, tables, chairs for weddings etc.) and safety equipment and procedure was regularly ignored because “we gotta get this done quick” or good old fashioned “What are you, a pussy?”. And also guys would drink and smoke weed if boss wasn’t around. One of…

I feel like some people here are trying to take sides on this as if there’s no way for this actor to live in the tension of both loving his personal experience working on the movie and hating the tragedy and its aftermath. Seeing this through to the end does make sense both economically as some have pointed out and…

People have been complaining about “the teens” and their “likes” for the past thirty years. It could just be that, like, language changes. I can also guarantee that you (and everyone else here groaning about them) use filler words far more often than you think you do.

Alternatively, you could grow up

Most interviewers/reporters take the “likes” and “ums” out of a transcript. I guess though when you find like 23 of them you start to worry you’re butchering the original voice heh heh

I think there is some validity to him pointing out that as an actor on the set - not someone in charge - he was not aware of or seeing things that were different from other sets, which goes against the image that some have that the set was overtly functioning in a way that everyone was aware that everything was very…

You’re welcome.

Welcome to talking.

Also, sometimes the investigators themselves were roughed up, and advised that they should stay off the case if they know what’s good for them.

I didn’t say they were contradictory statements, I said they were at odds. Yes, I get that “someone” and “no one” are referring to different groups. I know how indexicals work.

they had to track down a lot of leads and occasionally go to waterfront dive bars to rough people up for information

That could be Ron DeSantis’ campaign slogan. Or pretty much any GOP politician. And Joe Manchin.

I understand that distinction, but isn’t this a part of a larger, social issue of general concern? It’s not just the producers or whomever that needs to be made aware and listen to them, but also society at large. That’s how you effect greater change in the industry.

“Will somebody get this big walking franchise outta my way?!”

That source also said there was a reactor leak…

Boring conversation anyway

Star Wars in trouble? That’s not what I heard. My sources said, “Everything’s perfectly alright now. We’re fine. We’re all fine here now, thankyou. How are you?”

“Luke’s force vision or something”.
