Anything with James Gunn attached will not see my money. I will pirate or Netflix it but I don’t give a shit if everyone here swears it’s the best fucking movie ever made.

No.

However, do you. I am not telling anyone what to do, and I’m not going to start.

Thought I'd start a new thread instead of derail the other one.

Far as James Gunn goes, that costume pic was fucking weird and he comes across as a tryhard edgelord with the old posts.
Is he a pedo? No clue, maybe. Benefit of the doubt for now unless more shit comes out.

But I'm no stranger to this kind of hate, and it got me thinking it can be irrational in it's application.

It's pretty well established Roman Polanski is a piece of shit. I've got a rough idea of the charges and it's a shitty thing.
That said, I've got no issue watching "The Pianist" or "Chinatown" either.
They are good movies and I can separate the man from his art without a second thought.

Someone like Toni Collette though, I can't watch anything she is in ever since she opened her trap about the treatment of sheep and mulesing in Australia.
It's a fucking necessity you dumb cunt, if you'd ever seen a fly blown animal you'd instantly shut the fuck up and sit down embarrassed you opposed it.

Anyway,

Who is on your do not watch list and why?

Not trolling, figured this could be along the lines of "What rustles your jimmies" but for movies. If no one cares rickshaw away.

Keeping yourself from enjoying a piece of entertainment because of the politics of the people involved is hurting yourself more than it hurts them. Let's look at Tom Cruise: batshit insane and a ranking member in a cult that has an excessive amount of influence in the world and does horrible things to some of its members. But, he makes some seriously great movies and much of the reason why Sci-Fi movies have remained popular is thanks to his personal interest in them, and his star factor getting them out the door. Hate the guy, but love his work. Opting out of watching the movies doesn't make a lick of difference to anything other than limiting your own experience.

Want change with these people? Focus on the industry first, because that's where things like Weinstein breed and fester for decades with little to no protest.

Robert DeNiro
Jim Carrey

Just to start off a slight list, I won't watch anything these clowns make anymore. I'll watch old stuff for the "good ol' days" vibe back when they didn't suck and kept their mouths shut, but these days I avoid their work. They've turned into some serious crazies, and more-so with politics being heated. Their acting is getting worse and their public ranting just further makes them completely worthless.

I think you guys are going way overboard on Gunn.
The point was to hoist him by his own Petard. Applying the same bullshit standards to him, he applied to others.

hes not actually a pedo. The dude worked for troma and grew up there practically. They entire modus operani is dead baby jokes. gross out, shock, and pushing boundaries.
If you want to blacklist him, because he didn't learn his lesson, sure go ahead. "I was a different person in the way back 2 years ago." is obviously a retarded justification.

The point was to start holding "Leftist" darlings to the same impossible standards the Left wields discriminately, to highlight the hypocrisy and how nonsensical it is.

Offensive jokes are not something to apologize for. you guys werent actually supposed to take offense to them.. nor were you supposed to believe baseless accusations..

You act like DeNiro has been in anything of note lately since the awful comedies and Jim has pretty much been MIA anyway until recently.

I'm on board with most of that Dom. Logically, I know it's silly, but at the risk of getting into feels territory I also have to acknowledge my reaction. It's immersion breaking. You could liken it to that meme, man sees a random guy and thinks nothing of it, random puts on rival team baseball cap and the guy thinks "wow, fuck that guy". Stupid on the face of it, but relatable. At this point it's pretty low effort, just ignore content she's in and move on. We're spoiled for choice so I don't think hurt comes into it. You're right in the sense I am limiting myself from a specific experience, but I don't feel like I'm missing out either. Ignorance is bliss?

There's also some experiences nobody should have, like a Uwe Boll movie.

nobody, movies are the efforts of thousands of people and i judge a movie based on whether its entertaining or not, not the politics of one person involved. sure, i'm not gonna go watch a movie telling me i'm a cunt for eating meat (or one that sucks off Trump like D'Souza's movies) because I have zero interest in that shit, but although I think Roman Polanski is a huge piece of shit for raping kids I'd probably see a movie he made if it reviewed really well by people i trusted.

I wouldn't hand him directly money or go to a 1 man talk by him or buy a book he wrote or whatever that is a direct transfer of money from me to him, but I see a TV show or a movie as very different than that. I'd have zero problems either with Polanski going to ass rape jail for the rest of his life.

I don't really give a shit about what Kevin Spacey did, if he sexually harassed a few guys then thats on fucking them. A guy can tell another guy "HEY YO STOP TOUCHING MY DICK", if you can't do that then you are a retard. There is a HUGE level of difference between a rapist or sexual assault criminal in jail who went around breaking into houses and held down women and raped them and a dude who tells someone "hey, suck my dick and i'll make you famous". The criminal is an animal and does not belong in society. Most of the Hollywood scumbags are people with power and retards let that power blind them. Sure, if kids were involved then fuck them, let them rot in jail, but there has been afaik zero accusations of any wrongdoing against Gunn, just he said a lot of stupid shit on twitter. Be like digging up old posts on FOH by people here where we said really stupid shit.

i bet there's a few actors that if i see them heading a movie i'm instantly skeptical. or a few directors, but if some one told me a movie with a dude in it was good, i wouldn't avoid seeing it on principle.

Though i think i'm still punishing starwars for episode 8. not sure if it's a 3 or 5 movie punishment.

there are certain actors that i'm just not interested in seeing. jlaw is definitely one of them. it's a little frustrating though because when she's on a talk show or some goofy youtube thing where it's her being her, she's kind of endearing in how awkward and weird she is. but then she talks politics and i'm like BLEEEEEHHHH. but yeah, i don't really like her in movies specifically because there's always this stupid "highest paid female actress but significantly lower than highest paid male actor" thing going on and it's like. listen honey, robert downey jr shouldn't even count. okay, take his name off the list. stop comparing yourself to him. it's not a male vs female thing, it's a talent thing and he's streets ahead.

tom cruise is probably the poster child for weirdo in real life but i have NO problem watching his movies. i mean, the MI movies are even better if you DON'T like tom cruise because they all spend the entire film series beating the piss out of him. but movies like last samurai and collateral? i don't care how oogy he makes me feel in real life, i LOVE those movies.

don't forget he's a nog father

Tom Cruise can see his daughter Suri up to 10 days a month, but chooses not to, a source tells Us Weekly exclusively.

“Every person is allowed to see their child if they wanted to,” the source tells Us, revealing custody of the 12-year-old is outlined in his divorce agreement with Katie Holmes. “He chooses not to because she is not a Scientologist.”

Most of the "lists" people on these boards are going to post will all be bullshit...because Tom Cruise is batshit fucking crazy but that motherfucker still puts out some good movies (MI6) that are worth watching.

Edit: Note I'm mainly talking politics, etc. people like Weinstein and on that level should be blacklisted.

That's nothing to do with his politics or behaviour, just due to the fact that he makes mindless dumb movies. And seems to keep doing it with truckloads of money given to him.

honestly this list is dumb.

if, for some reason they offend you so much, you choose NOT to view good art, go pirate, argh argh.

It would probably make more of a difference if your favorite porn actress is a feminazi, or it might help the other way seeing that cunt get railed by endless, who knows.

I mean, i wonder if stormy daniels porn demand has increased among democratic incels
