Harvey Weinstein = Hollywood dumpster fire.

Everyday hearing about this fat ugly lame
And nothing goin happen. Nothing changes his life
 
If a woman is REALLY traumatized they dont take a settlement or a role ... I have no sympathy for Harvey and likewise have NONE for these actresses who had a choice and chose ...

I don't believe he "raped" anyone ... I believe he used his position of power to rail many females ... And damn near everyone knew and didn't care ...

This whole situation is creepy ... I hope he rots in jail and I hope the women who legitimately were assaulted find peace ...

But I'm tired of hypocrites ... And if you are raped, you don't settle and don't compromise, end of story ...


I'm late as hell on this thread but did this imbecile really try to dictate how female rape victims should handle the circumstances and consequences of having been raped
 
Did we really get a C&D for talking about a certain x-men director? Don't remember that :lol:

Master Zik Master Zik
Nah, I wish. Cuz I wouldn't have stopped and probably got banned from the thread and then make a thread about it.

We got the C&D cuz guys who would normally post news, articles, and rumors also posted new posters or leaked photos on set or leaked footage.

Apparently, the thread would show up on the first pg of Google searches and of course we would be trashing it so the Fox studios cats went after NT. Sent Meth a C&D or a warning more likely and he then had to tell us.

When we did discuss Singer being a ******* pedophile we didn't go that in depth and the only rumored info out there was the pool party with naked boys. Only thing since then was his charges being settled or dismissed and claiming to be innocent.

Motion Picture Academy Ousts Harvey Weinstein Amid Sexual Misconduct Allegations
BY PHIL MCCAUSLAND



Embattled movie mogul Harvey Weinstein was expelled Saturday from the ranks of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in the latest show of solidarity by Hollywood against a onetime titan of the industry.

The academy's 54-member board said in a statement that they had "voted well in excess of the required two-thirds majority" to oust Weinstein, who has seen a wave of Hollywood actresses in recent days accuse him of sexual misconduct over the past three decades.

Members of the board include well-known stars such as Tom Hanks, Whoopi Goldberg, Laura Dern, Michael Mann, Steven Spielberg and Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy. Nearly half of the members of the academy’s board of governors are women.

The Academy Expels Harvey Weinstein Amid Sexual Misconduct Claims
"We do so not simply to separate ourselves from someone who does not merit the respect of his colleagues but also to send a message that the era of willful ignorance and shameful complicity in sexually predatory behavior and workplace harassment in our industry is over," the academy said.

The film organization, which hosts the Oscars, came under pressure to expel the influential media mogul after the New York Times published an Oct. 5 reportthat alleged the Hollywood producer had abused his position of power to sexually harass and assault women, including high-profile actresses such as Ashley Judd, Angelina Jolie and Gwyneth Paltrow.

Three women also made explosive accusations in a New Yorker report that included published audio of a 2015 New York Police Department sting in which Weinstein appeared to admit to groping Filipina-Italian model Ambra Battilana Gutierrez.

More than three dozen women — including successful and aspiring actresses, former employees, and models — have come forward with stories of Weinstein's alleged sexual misconduct. In a tweet Thursday, actress Rose McGowan accused Weinstein of raping her.

Weinstein's representatives have said in a previous statement that "any allegations of non-consensual sex are unequivocally denied" by him and that he did not retaliate against women who rejected his advances.

Weinstein was fired from The Weinstein Co. on Sunday, a television and movie company he co-founded with his brother, Bob Weinstein.

Their companies have been involved with the production or distribution of more than 80 Oscar-winning films. Harvey Weinstein also won a statue as a producer for the 1999 Best Picture winner, "Shakespeare in Love."

A source close to the Hollywood producer told NBC News that Weinstein planned to challenge his firing.

Bob Weinstein, now the sole head of The Weinstein Co., told The Hollywood Reporter in a blistering interview Saturday that his brother would not return under any circumstances.

"I cannot control other people’s actions," Bob Weinstein said. "But he was fired by the board, okay? I was on that board. I fired him. He can fight. It will be a losing fight."

Bob Weinstein emphasized that he only knew that his brother was having a number of extramarital affairs, but he did not know that Harvey Weinstein had allegedly committed the various acts of sexual misconduct.

Still, Bob Weinstein said, he had disowned his brother long ago.

"I haven’t had a relationship with him as a brother for many, many years," Bob Weinstein added. "But I'm ashamed that he is my brother, to be honest, and I am ashamed that these are his actions. I'm not thinking at this moment about dissecting what may or may not have affected any past situation. I'm so in the here and now and feel sick."

The academy in its statement didn't mention whether it would strip Harvey Weinstein of his past Oscar win or if it has the ability to do so.

“What’s at issue here is a deeply troubling problem that has no place in our society,” the academy said. "The Board continues to work to establish ethical standards of conduct that all Academy members will be expected to exemplify."

I wish it was possible to post the vid of Jon Oliver just now on his show burning the academy for the statement they made for why they kicked Harvey out.

Basically, this part "to send a message that the era of willful ignorance and shameful complicity in sexually predatory behavior and workplace harassment in our industry is over" is complete bull **** cuz this is the same academy that still counts Roman Polanski, Bill Cosby, and Mel Gibson as members :lol: :smh:
 
I'm hesitant to believe Rob Schneider here because of his antics on the Twitters
 
This dude really out here WIO any and every where and pulling his goalie
 
howrunner who worked on the Weinstein Co. drama “The Mist” has accused Bob Weinstein of sexual harassment during the production of the Spike TV series.

Amanda Segel, an executive producer of “Mist,” said Weinstein repeatedly made romantic overtures to her and asked her to join him for private dinners. The harassment began in the summer of 2016 and continued on and off for about three months until Segel’s lawyer, David Fox of Myman Greenspan, informed TWC executives — including COO David Glasser — that she would leave the show if Bob Weinstein did not stop contacting her on personal matters.

“ ‘No’ should be enough,” Segel told Variety. “After ‘no,’ anybody who has asked you out should just move on. Bob kept referring to me that he wanted to have a friendship. He didn’t want a friendship. He wanted more than that. My hope is that ‘no’ is enough from now on.”

A representative for Bob Weinstein denied that he engaged in any inappropriate behavior in a statement to Variety.

“Bob Weinstein had dinner with Ms. Segel in LA in June 2016. He denies any claims that he behaved inappropriately at or after the dinner. It is most unfortunate that any such claim has been made,” the statement said.

Bert Fields, a lawyer for Bob Weinstein, also issued a strong denial on Weinstein’s behalf.

“Variety’s story about Bob Weinstein is riddled with false and misleading assertions by Ms. Segel and we have the emails to prove it, but even if you believe what she says it contains not a hint of any inappropriate touching or even any request for such touching,” Fields said. “There is no way in the world that Bob Weinstein is guilty of sexual harassment, and even if you believed what this person asserts there is no way it would amount to that.”

A rep for the Weinstein Co. denied that Glasser was contacted by Segel’s lawyer, a source close to Glasser said in fact the COO had communicated with Segel but his involvement in addressing the situation was minimal.

Spike TV in a statement said: “We take all allegations of this nature very seriously, and are investigating.”

Segel’s revelation about her experience with Bob Weinstein comes on the heels of explosive allegations of sexual assault and harassment by his older brother and longtime business partner, Harvey Weinstein. More than 30 women have come forward with allegations that paint a pattern of behavior by Harvey Weinstein as a serial sexual predator. The scandal resulted in Harvey Weinstein being fired by the board of the Weinstein Co. and has sent the company into a tailspin, with creative partners and networks working to distance themselves from the company.

Meanwhile, this week, Bob Weinstein has publicly decried his brother’s actions and claimed that he was unaware of the severity of the allegations, which include at least two allegations of rape. But the disclosure from Segel raises serious questions about Bob Weinstein’s comportment with female colleagues. Segel’s experience on “The Mist” left her shaken and angry.

The intense media focus on disturbing allegations surrounding Harvey Weinstein sparked renewed frustration for Segel. She knows from previous experience that sexual harassment and discrimination against female writers is widespread in television. After much consideration of the potential risk to her career, Segel decided to go public with her Bob Weinstein experience in an effort to help raise awareness of the extra burden that women often face and to encourage the industry to put a stop to behavior that has too often been seen as part and parcel of the high-pressure business of producing a TV show.

Segel’s discomfort with Bob Weinstein began in June 2016 when he invited her out to dinner in Los Angeles, at Dan Tana’s restaurant. Segel had been told by coworkers that Bob Weinstein had inquired with them whether she was single. She agreed to go to dinner with him in an effort to establish a professional relationship with the head of the company behind “The Mist.”

During the dinner, Weinstein asked Segel highly intimate questions and made romantic overtures to her, according to Segel. He wanted to know her age because he told her he didn’t want to date anyone younger than his daughter. He told Segel that he was staying at the Beverly Hills Hotel because his daughter was staying at his home in Los Angeles.

About halfway through the dinner, Weinstein asked Segel if she would drive him back to the hotel so that he could let his driver go for the night. Segel agreed. When she took him to the Sunset Boulevard hotel, he asked her to come up to his room. She declined.

After that night, Weinstein began sending emails to Segel with questions that were outside the scope of work on “The Mist.” He said he wanted them to be friends. She said that was possible but in a non romantic way, and reiterated that she was not open to dating.

In a scenario that echoes some of the allegations against Harvey Weinstein, Segel asserts that during this period Bob Weinstein invited her to a house he’d rented in Malibu for a party. When he called Segel to tell her the address of the house, she gathered that it was not a party but an invitation for the two of them to be alone. She did not attend.

Bob Weinstein continued to ask Segel out to dinner between June and August of 2016 joking at times that he was her boss and could fire her if she didn’t agree. Segel agreed to another dinner with him in which she was accompanied by “Mist” executive producer and writer Christian Torpe. Weinstein was clearly unhappy with Torpe’s presence at the dinner, according to Segel.

Eventually, Weinstein stopped the unwanted attention toward Segel. During a notes conference call with network executives about the show, Segel says Weinstein became angry and screamed at Segel over a production issue that she says was out of her control. When questioned about the outburst by others on the call, Segel expressed her view that she had been sexually harassed by Weinstein for three months. After that incident, Segel had her lawyer contact TWC executives with the ultimatum that she would leave the show if Weinstein did not stay away from her.

After much back and forth between Segel, her lawyer and TWC executives, an agreement was reached that Segel would continue her work on the show but arrangements were made that she was never to be in the same room as Weinstein or on telephone calls with him, an agreement that was honored by Weinstein. It was also agreed that TWC would let Segel out of its option to keep her on the show if it was picked up for a second season.

Fox declined to comment, citing “the possibility of litigation involving the Weinstein Company.”

“The Mist,” a fantasy thriller based on the Stephen King novella, had a 10-episode run that wrapped in August. The show was not renewed by Spike TV for a second season.

At present, Segel is working on a new series, in a work environment she described as pleasantly low-key, and focused on developing her own projects

shoes keep dropping.

Bob shouldn't of saved face thaaaat fast :lol
 
so if one of these big wigs tell these actresses sleep with me and you will get far and they do is that considered sexual assault?
 
Im still of the belief Weinstein pissed off someone equally or more powerful.

It's almost like an APB was put out calling to murk dude in the media.

Highly doubt he's the only creepy ***** in Hollywood, levels to it
 
In one way, that's what's up.

Not at all surprised Bob on the same steez. He looks like his brother.

"Kaya Jones was discovered by R Kelly when she was 13 years old"

Oh no. :smh: :lol:

joint started off bad
When I read that I was like but of course.
 
so if one of these big wigs tell these actresses sleep with me and you will get far and they do is that considered sexual assault?

its starting to look like some of these chicks are just regretful of the shortcuts they took as opposed to actually being victims of harassment. although im sure some were indeed harassed and in weird situations i.e. that audio earlier in this thread

but if harvey says “_____ me and i can get you a starring role” and she consensually does it is that really harassment/assault or how most powerful men operate....IMO foul play only appears when the chick loses the ability to end or deny the situation
