Or just plain old “guilt proven by way of a trial”.

It’s kind of hilarious watching a handful of people still try to defend her in the face of overwhelming evidence. . .

And this one found they weren't? 

I’ve mentioned this in other comments, but I think everyone gets these assessments wrong. I do not work in Hollywood specifically, but I do work in television and I can give SOME sort of insight. It’s not that producers are deciding if he is okay to hire. Anyone who WOULD hire him already WANTS to. They are just…

I don’t think everyone else fully grasps how public memory works. I bet you dollars to donuts, a year from now Depp is back in films, doing the press tour, the whole shebang. He will lose this trial, flat out. He will probably win the public relations battle in the end.

“But with Johnny Depp it’s different somehow”

Because people WANT to like Johnny Depp. He’s a well liked actor who played a couple of beloved roles from a lot of people’s childhoods. People are LOOKING FOR an excuse to forgive him. And he, or his lawyers, are smart enough to know that. So this whole trial is about…

“In fact his side has shot thier own arguments in the foot by saying the ACLU ghost wrote the op-ed”

What? That’s like THE best thing they could have done. All people will remember from that is “Someone wrote her accusations for her.” Doesn’t matter that it isn’t true. It’s what the situation SOUNDS like in passing. So…

Depp has pretty much won everything he wanted out of this trial. In the public eye he very much looks like the victim, and she looks awful. Regardless of what the reality of the situation was, that appears to be the prevailing public opinion now. He’ll likely get hired back on to projects again. I think everyone…

“Kiddo”

Rest of the trial is pretty much irrelevant at this point. This is what people will remember out of it. Depp just won the case in the court of public opinion. 

I’m not sure what the point of this is supposed to be. Her mental health isn’t being “weaponized”, it’s being introduced as evidence that she was. . . mentally and emotionally abusive. Which is a thing mentally ill people do. They’re just supposed to NOT mention that?

Yes, because Amber Heard, who co-opted her assistants sexual assault history for her own, is totally innocent here.

“Why does he get to resume his fame before we consider some (or all) of them for his slots?”

Because people want him to?

“Boycott”

“I don’t know the whole context, but I guarantee if I witnessed my wife publicly humiliated(by a man) and she became upset over it someone is going to get their sh*t knocked loose. Hard stop. Nobody hurts her and gets off”

This came from a place of narcissism.

How the fuck do you misspell Spielberg’s name. . .

There is no problem, you’re just REALLY desperate for clicks.

The mental gymnastics everyone has committed to jump through over this shit is WILD.

Scarlett Johanson was one of the criminals actually!

And it honestly wasn’t that awful. Not as good as the first two, but I watch it around Christmas as part of my rotation.

The fact he WASN’T in this is pretty laughable. He knowingly keeps tabs on magical threats to the world, and a massive magical bubble captures a town for literally weeks, emanating from the most powerful magical source on the planet, and he is nowhere to be found? I know “Where are the other Avengers during the…
