I didn't know it extended to young boys.

 

Like I said before, it just makes me sick to know that some homophobic people out there will look at Kevin Spacey and say, "See, I was right about those faggots all along!".  At a time when the LGBTQ community has made such progress toward equality and acceptance within the "mainstream" community, this was the LAST thing they needed to have happened.

Dear God, I had no idea about Corey Haim and you-know-who!

 

(Well, one good thing about Haim being dead: he doesn't have to worry about whether he contracted the HIV virus from that sick mofo.)

That team has yet to be born!  

 

Here's hoping they're never tapped into service!

 

But seriously.  I hope, at the very least, that Kevin Spacey is being realistic about his career now.  If he believes he can climb back onto the A-, B- or even C-List after these allegations, he's not only narcissistic but delusional af.  He'll be lucky to land a role in a straight-to-DVD movie.  And any college or university that would even CONSIDER hiring him to be an acting professor would be an absolute fool, to put it mildly.

 

Oh, well.  I hear they're hiring at the Pizza Hut.  #shrug

I guess in a selfish way I keep thinking it'll be hard to remember and appreciate his best work. He's been smug and often obnoxious onscreen a long time and I've known about some of these stories longer than some folks, but I still enjoyed some of his recent work like Baby Driver (I don't watch HoC, I preferred the UK series). Overnight all of that is gone. As it absolutely should be, but it's still jarring cognitively to wrap one's head around.

 

Hell, I'm starting to wonder if his big Ridley Scott Oscar movie with Michelle Williams will be dumped to streaming. A week ago it was a major picture and the studio was going to push a big award campaign for him to win for it; now they've dropped that entirely.

Q: Can (and should) the Academy revoke Kevin Spacey's two Oscar wins?

 

I think you're right, Vee.  I think they'll probably dump the movie to streaming.  Or they might go ahead and release the movie to theaters but not bother with any ads or other promotions.  Either way, they'll just write it off financially.

I also wanted to take the time out to say that Amy's story some pages ago really affected me as well. I didn't want to seem uncaring (anymore than I usually do), I just kept getting distracted throughout my day/week.

I feel for Corey Feldman given all he went through and how he was treated for speaking out, Corey Haim too(may he RIP)

They might be able to arrest Weinstein because of Paz De La Huerta's case.

^ A paragraph from that article:

I want to be generous and say that, somewhere along the line, Kevin has been hurt, too — fucked up by a society that punishes people for honesty. Pedophilia is a psychiatric disorder in which one feels an attraction to prepubescent children. There are legions of people who have these feelings and don’t act on them. What if Kevin Spacey had been given space to talk about his attractions without fear of cultural sanction?

 

That's what psychiatrists are for. I'm not interested in living in a world where we normalize pedophilia.

I was reading about a former Star Trek Voyager actor, Manu Intiraymi, who tweeted some really nasty comments about Rapp after the news came out earlier this week. So anyway, not that I've ever heard of him (he was on the last few seasons of that show) but if you ever see his name on anything you watch, keep that in mind.

he sounds like an ass

Maybe he should be fired too

   The President can “Grab Em by the !@#$%^&*], & keep his job. But 20 year old allegations & Spacey loses his? This country is just a tad uptight.

Say WHAT? If the pervert in question had been ordinary John Q. Citizen and not an Academy Award-winning actor, would he have gotten this same defense? 

Well, I always wondered what had happened to the kid from "Brooklyn Bridge."  Now I know.

Sorry, if this has been posted already.

 

Kevin Spacey Officially Fired from HoC; Netflix Also Drops "Gore"

 

"Gore," in which Spacey played the titular character (Gore Vidal), had just wrapped filming in Italy, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

 

 

Good!! I just feel bad for those people who did good, honest work on those projects.

What the ever-loving F.U.C.K.? (Sorry for the language, but this pisses me off!) Is this what this has been reduced to? Defending these sick SOBs because King Pervert sits in the White House and, thus, horrible behavior is now deemed acceptable?

 

This should NEVER be normalized. EVER.
