Could you fuckers get off your high horse? Stop patting yourselves on the back with this “Oh yeah, we believed the rumors before anyone else” bullshit. Are we really going after anyone who might have possibly heard a fucking rumor and didn’t act upon said rumor in whatever way you deem appropriate?

He could squeeze them for as much as he would gain from a WW sequel. This happening so close to the actual end of his contract makes the cynic in me wonder if he and Gal are doing a double bind on Warner Bros.

To be fair, Chris Benoit never worked again either.

Yup, every industry thats well covered by the media has been shown to have this problem (Hollywood, politics, sports, the tech industry, wall street, and the media itself). My boring sector does too...guessing its universal

I don’t see how people have trouble separating art from artist. Is it really that hard to be like “wow, this [bad person] did [this action] well”?

Calling men they hate “Chad”....I can’t help but be reminded of The Root calling white women “Becky.”

These guys sound like total wastes of skins, but this is AV Club-type news... why? Are they at least making a web series or punk album smearing their crap around? No? Just some a-holes on the Internet? And for off-topic stuff like this, quality original writing in the form of film reviews gets buried in the abysses of…

Katie’s reporting on this was total dogshit. It consistently misrepresented events and statements and never corrected them.

Apologize for what? The original articles are still inaccurate, it’s like saying it’s okay for a cop to lie on the witness stand if he knows for a fact that a defendant is guilty.

Uh, there were no allegations (not even anonymous ones) on record and Kirkman denied her article was about LCK. And the origin of the story appeared to be a Gawker article.

Kirkman never made masturbation allegations against CK. She told a story about an unnamed comedian, people jumped to the conclusion it was about him, and she explicitly denied that it was the case. Thar’s not remotely near ‘walking allegations back’. She DID accuse him of hitting on her when he was married. Details…

BREAKING - Morrisey has canceled.

Kim Jong-un, Friday would be the perfect day to nuke Los Angeles if you were thinking about doing that.

Not true. Manchester By the Sea had a much wider theatrical release than anything Netflix gets. It made nearly 50 million dollars in theaters and was in as many as 1213 theaters at one point. That’s basically the norm for a platformed prestige drama, you’d hardly know Amazon was involved.

Because they are still going to run 17 different articles, thinkpieces, and clickbait about The Last Jedi during its week of release anyway, because any pop culture website that isn’t covering Star Wars is going to quickly find itself left out in the cold. It’s having your cake and eating it. But their review is going…

Yeah, I was confused about that... as if Disney gives a fuck if you see their movie in advance. Stop covering their movies altogether and you have a different stance... but you’re literally just doing the same thing - only about a week or so later.

Meanwhile, over at The Root, the entire staff is working on a hot take about how Sadie Sink is clearly a racist.

This article makes me feel truly ashamed of what AV Club has become.

Full-grown producers and director compel child actor to perform specific actions on demand for camera as crew, fellow actors, and child’s own parents look on! Scandal of the century!

I’m ashamed that I clicked on this. Were you ever fifteen, Barsanti? I was uncomfortable all the time when I was fifteen, and I wasn’t on a hugely successful TV show at the time.
