Saw a commercial for House of Cards. Guess they kept the show going without Spacey. tbh, while Spacey did some awful shit in the past, it's a shame that the show's fans may ultimately suffer for his bullshit... unless this is an improvement. Not watching the show until it wraps.

Are you saying he should still be getting parts in tv shows and movies?

Nah, an actors take is largely due to the popular opinion... except perhaps on Broadway.

I mean the retroactive retconning of stuff he's already made

Did I miss something? I mean, media outlets arent playing his older movies as much. Thats a PR move because hes a deserved social pariah at this point. But did somebody actually revoke a award?

He was a pro wrestler that killed his wife and son and then himself

He had the same kind of brain damage that football players get from repeated high impact blows to the head. I remember the last few years that he wrestled he was never part of any actual storylines and from the moment he came out to the end of the match he always looked absolutely furious, like genuinely angry beyond words.

He's a wonderful actor that chose very awful roles throughout the years (at least awful in terms of award winning performances).

I still believe his best work was as John Doe in Se7en.

I somewhat hate to suggest this, but I kinda wish that we could have a wrap-up period for actors involved in non-criminal scandals where they could finish their existing projects before being blacklisted from the profession and consigned to irrelevance (or a multi-year apology tour). While so far it hasn't hurt any show or movie I care about, I'm worried that someday an actor or actress from something I'm actively following will turn out to be an absolute creep and it winds up shitcanning the show.

As it is, I *was* eventually going to watch House of Cards and this may or may not adversely affect it. And James Gunn being outed as a pedo will likely hurt GotG which I plan on getting around to watching someday and, given the hype, is probably something I'll like.

It's PO, he was obviously being facetious and likely referencing the fact that the WWE has done its damnest to erase Benoit from history.

Not sure what my favorite Spacey role was. He was a great actor, though. Also it's kinda ironic that the guy starred in a film entitled Consenting Adults when he went down over allegations that he tried to have a non-consenting encounter with a minor.

It's a fantastic show. It bothers me that I'll never know what direction that they were originally going to go with the final season though.

Was he actually outed as a pedo? Last I heard, he was fired because of some distasteful tweets joking about rape and pedophilia, not the act itself.

You're kind of missing the pertinent info that the WWE (or whatever it was) did the whole "you'll be missed" event on news of his death but when they found out it was a murder/suicide tried to pretend that it never happened and that they were never associated with him.

Not at all, he made some crass jokes that an alt right group compiled and shamed him over, which is the reason Zeus is so adamant about this issue

No, that's just Zeus' unrelenting certainty that anyone and everyone who has ever made a joke about pedophilia at any point must absolutely be a kid-fucker, no exceptions.

At first, Mead was outraged by those tweets... but then he heard that Zeus also thought something was seriously weird about the posts as well so his position mysteriously changed

Which is downplaying the frequency of Gunn's "jokes," the nature of said jokes, and the fact that Gunn is a pedo.
