- When Plot Against America came out I thought it was weird casting but then ... "oh, right." -- nm - Reagen Jun 23, 12:30 1
  - Which makes that role blocking incident all the more hateful. How deep is the hate that one goes looking for that in someone and then to 'see' it? -- nm - JD Jun 23, 12:35
- I didn't either, so JD's never gonna forgive me. -- nm - David Jun 23, 12:07 1
  - It shouldn't be a thing. How she's lived her life with regards to that is completely opposite when compared to someone like Natalie Portman -- nm - JD Jun 23, 12:10

Here's what I can't believe. Many of Hollywood's power players are Jewish. Mel Gibson has always been an anti-Semite. And yet... - David Jun 23, 11:43 18
- In a class system where the power players have blinders and ear muffs on, and everyone needs each other to succeed, nobody's going to sink a project - Max Jun 23, 12:11 1
  - Swimming with Sharks was a documentary. And actors are a product, like a can of tomato soup. If you don't know the tomato soup is bad, - Beryllium Jun 23, 12:47

  - After his sugar tits melt down he was black balled for a while -- nm - zeitgeist Jun 23, 12:12
  - That last question is something I hope becomes a conversation point over the next few days. -- nm - David Jun 23, 12:08
- "Popular" in Hollywood, and I suppose among rich people anywhere, is not like popular to normal people. -- nm - mara Jun 23, 12:03
- greed -- nm - decline Jun 23, 11:49
- money over everything. -- nm - colin Jun 23, 11:44 10
  - Yeah, this concept isn't hard to fathom. People are greedy assholes. -- nm - Shaun Jun 23, 11:44
  - I just can't believe it's that simple. -- nm - David Jun 23, 11:44 8
    - wait until you find out why all of these large corporations are saying "Black Lives Matter" - colin Jun 23, 11:57 4
      - Well, that worked really well for Mixer. - David Jun 23, 12:10 3
        
        FWIW, I think Phil Spencer and Satya Nadella are two of the most sincere and humane people in the industry. - Max Jun 23, 12:17 2
        
        It's absolutely the causality. -- (edited) - David Jun 23, 12:44
        
        Mixer was already a dead service walking. -- nm - Shaun Jun 23, 12:19
    - Greed, for lack of a better word, is good. -- nm - Spawn Jun 23, 11:56
