Apparently they're announcing felony charges against him today.

Which still doesn't make that video make any less crazy.

So far the people that took the blame or even apologized for even 'mild' #metoo accusations all got the short end of the stick. Everyone hates them and their careers are ruined.
While those that took the fight to their accusers or kept claiming they were innocent are equally hated but managed to achieve their goals and keep their careers.

The #metoo movement really ruined itself by having the likes of Kavanaugh show that it is better to turn it into a public circus and find supporters rather than keeping a low profile.
Especially because the older cases are hard to investigate and the news cycle eventually passes on a story with no new developments.

Max Landis : Round 2

It's not exactly clear what he is supposed to have done but considering many exes and ex-friends are alluding to him being a two faced manipulative toxic prick it's not looking too good.

"Well, I'm looking for things to point at Milwaukee, but I don't know what to do," Culkin responded.

The Daily Beast has an article on Max Landis with several different accounts. Didn't read it but it ranges from being an insufferable abusive boyfriend to attempted rape(s) / rape(s) apparently. :cat

https://twitter.com/joshuatrank/status/1141043649456877568

I guess we'll take solace in the fact we didn't had to wait he clocked in 30 years in his career before being outed.

OK I know I shouldn't be laughing but...

Quote
At one point known as “the Colour Society” (a spelling that Landis allegedly insisted upon), Landis’ circle was an immediate draw for Julie, who first met Landis when she was relatively new to Los Angeles. “Max’s whole entire MO was, he had a special friend group, it’s very exclusive, and you’re lucky to be a part of it. He introduced me to almost every single one of my current friends.”

Lainey*, a former friend of Landis’ whose stint in the Colour Society overlapped with Julie’s, had a similar introduction to the circle. “Max was one of the first people I met when I moved to Los Angeles. He had amassed this huge group of really cool people that he would get together for ridiculous activities. One-hundred person Nerf battles and elaborate theme parties which he casually spent 50K on.

Man he really is one of those vindictive nerds to a T mixed with some Richie Rich entitlement. Needy, sexually aggressive, toxic and controlling. Bragging about having "given" eating disorders to girlfriends (several !) and slapping food out of her GF's hand in front of his parents... Like what can you say ?

Edit : Of course he kept an Excel list of all the women he boned.   :gurl

I'd argue an American Werewolf in London or the Blues Brother is still what people would most likely associate with John Landis, if they know who he is. But the awful tragedy on Twilight Zone's set is not exactly a secret.

That Twilight Zone accident is like the nightmare scenario for anyone producing entertainment. People, from the technicians themselves to the producers, often cutting corners -for a variety of reasons- on safety rules, labor code and a lot of other little transgressions, pushing limits and risks to gain those marginal artistic edges, squeezing more or less reasonable overtime out of teams to keep with tight schedules, etc... 99% of the time it will go fine or only with minor injuries, moral bruises, spicy tales to joke about down the line or build the legend of showbusiness. When it doesn't, people die, you're responsible and it's never worth it.

I don't know where I'm going with that tangent : spare a thought for that pain in the ass co-worker who can't take a shit unless the rulebook is followed to the letter. He exists for a reason.

Gotta admire how the industry manages to keep this on the down low (maybe another "lesson" learned from the Twilight Zone accident) because some of them read really bad.

Quote
Shooter (2016). On July 6, 2016, while filming a scene at Agua Dulce Airpark, actor Tom Sizemore accidentally ran over a stuntman. Sizemore was supposed to enter the Cadillac Escalade and stay there until the scene ended. The stunt coordinator told him not to pull out, but he did so regardless, not realizing that the stuntman was behind him.

Quote
Lone Operator (2013, unaired). During filming of this planned Discovery Channel series, cameraman Darren Rydstrom, cast member Michael Donatelli, and pilot David Gibbs were killed in a helicopter crash in Acton, California. Gibbs was not authorized by the FAA to fly during the morning hours, and he had his pilot's license suspended twice prior to the accident.

Quote
The Eagle (2011). When filming in a freezing river, actors have a mixture of boiling hot water and river water poured down their suits to stay warm. A crew member forgot to mix the hot water with the river water during filming; as a result, Channing Tatum was scalded with boiling water that burned the skin off the tip of his penis.

No material evidence, most victims were in a relationship with Landis and probably had plenty of consensual sex during those, they only realized they were abused months or years after, victims most probably outgunned with regards to legal fees and lawyers, etc, etc...

It wouldn't be like that in an ideal world but it is what it is.

i was skimming that and read Bret Easton, didn't see it wasn't until the link loaded.

did end up on the wikipedia bluebeard page so there is that.

Quote
Although best known as a folktale, the character of Bluebeard appears to derive from legends related to historical individuals in Brittany. One source is believed to have been the 15th-century Breton and convicted serial killer Gilles de Rais, a nobleman who fought alongside Joan of Arc and became both Marshal of France and her official protector, then was hanged and burned as a murderous witch.However, Gilles de Rais did not kill his wife, nor were any bodies found on his property, and the crimes for which he was convicted involved the sexually-driven, brutal murder of children rather than women.[8]
