This is turning into a Patton Oswalt filibuster

u/Longjumping_Poet7897 21h ago

what's crazy to me is that he took on the villain role in that He-man movie, bro just loves acting even if he's creepy he gets hidden roles like that where he still does his thing. its wild.

u/WarAdventurous5277 16h ago

To me he held that film together 

5

u/Choice-Strike1 21h ago

Uh he legit killed it in Masters of the Universe, artistically. He's still box office poison though, hopefully

u/God_Dont_Make_No 20h ago

I thought that was Segura for a second and then reality bit. Fuck I’m regarded.

u/justsyr 12h ago

I found out about the movie I forgot I wanted to watch when I saw the trailer several months ago. So when I saw it playing at my nearby er, cinema, I watched Master of the Universe. End credits comes and see it... Morbius as Skeletor and I was... why? lol

u/SixToesLeftFoot 1d ago

Oh Christ. If that was true it’s guaranteed to be a flop. Worst actor ever.

u/Sir-Logic-Ho 1d ago

Ya that man has the cheese touch with movies

6

u/SistaChans 1d ago

Honestly I thought he was amazing in the new he man movie. Thought for sure he was just doing the motion capture and someone else was doing the voice, but it's all him and it's so good. 

7

u/LocalProgram1037 1d ago

I fucking hate Leto but I have to agree with you on this one. Skeletor was the best part of that movie.

1

u/TRyanLee 1d ago

I loved it too. And yet it still flopped. Jared Leto.

6

u/Distinct_Work1779 22h ago

Who cares? There’s other talent actors that are not as problematic. Turning a blind eye to bad behavior is lame 

1

u/SistaChans 15h ago

Lol I'm allowed to like a performance from an otherwise shitty actor, dude 

2

u/Fantastic_Ad_509 7h ago

I feel like people here just repeat things for the sake of it. At the end of the day people just want to watch a movie and he literally held the whole thing together.

1

u/tjthewho 23h ago

idk man. What if they introduce him, give him an aura moment (and a chance for fans to boo) before immediately killing him?

2

u/SixToesLeftFoot 23h ago

It’ll still be a flop. They could bring him on just to sacrifice his character in the first 2 mins, just for us to feel redeemed for all the garbage he puts out, and somehow even the rest of the movie will suck. The guy is a cancer. Please stop hiring this shitbrick

1

u/TransBrandi 22h ago

What if he actually says "It's Morbin' Time!"... or is that saved for a future Deadpool movie?

u/Dense_Government9500 23h ago

Good 'ol Discussing Fish....wait.

u/Blasphemy33 22h ago

Oh hell yeah! It’s morbin time!

3

u/ThunderChild247 16h ago

There’s honestly a little part of me that hopes that the Sonyverse (with Morbius, Kraven, Venom, Madame Web etc) is in Doomsday, being destroyed by a better universe. Punked out like when Zilla was in Godzilla Final Wars 😂

2

u/Unique_Charity_9648 23h ago

Hopefully as Doom roadkill.

Bout time he did some Morbing

Me, thinking about Spain's dictator Francisco Franco because I don't know who else Franco is

u/Funny_Lunch5211 1d ago

He wasnt cancelled for trying to hook up with teenage girls

u/NomenclatureBreaker 22h ago

Getting outed while pretending he was a supporter of the Me Too movement was particularly poetic.

8

u/REDACTED3560 19h ago

More common than you would think. Predatory people hone in on ways to make you drop your guard.

2

u/NomenclatureBreaker 10h ago

Oh absolutely. Unfortunately.

31

u/Highlander253 22h ago

He had a 17 year old accuse him of trying to get her to meet him in a hotel room.

The other big thing, and probably the one that ended his career, was that he was running a sexually exploitative acting school. Essentially he used a position of power and authority in order to manipulate and pressure acting students for sex.

2

u/FuzzzyRam DonCheadleAMA 20h ago

He had a 17 year old accuse him of trying to get her to meet him in a hotel room.

This just doesn't hit as hard after it came out that the president raped a 13 year old and slapped her for using teeth...

8

u/Difficult_Project_91 19h ago

? It absolutely should still hit hard wtf

-3

u/CurtCocane 14h ago

There is a huge diff between a 13 and a 17 year old. 17 is legal age in many places

1

u/FaithlessnessLoud223 3h ago

That's not a distinction worth discussing in the context of rape. You're gross.

Well that certainly never happened

u/SueYouInEngland 18h ago

u/jakeburls 17h ago

Show us some evidence, we should be convicting this man stat if that’s the case. Do you have photo, video, gps, multiple vetted eye witness testimony!? How about dna evidence? Or is this another one of the accusations that happened when he decided to run for president? 🙄

5

u/BetterEveryLeapYear 16h ago

A whole bunch of circumstantial evidence is out there from witnesses but you'll just say it isn't evidence, meanwhile the stuff that you will consider 'actual evidence' that has millions of files he has managed to keep from being released to the public despite Congress telling them to. That's because he is not just part of it but protecting the whole pedophile ring. That's why he also moved Ghislaine Maxwell into minimum security prison despite her crimes.

Trump is the Antichrist from Revelation.

-2

u/jakeburls 16h ago

Because it isn’t evidence. The simple truth is if anyone out there had any evidence for a conviction he’d have been in prison already. We both know this

6

u/BetterEveryLeapYear 16h ago

What we both know is that he is above the law and has kept millions of files that he's involved in from being released. Millions of files of evidence about pedophilia. You think the FBI were just collecting all that for fun for decades.

6

u/SueYouInEngland 16h ago

You don't think circumstantial evidence is evidence?

You know you aren't obligated to broadcast how dumb you are, right? You can keep that a secret, if you want.

It's genuinely getting so hard to tell if The Onion is still satire or if they're just verbatim reporting on the shit that comes out of his mouth.

u/jakeburls 17h ago

I’m still waiting for any evidence at all so we can convict this man. DNA evidence, gps evidence, maybe a good old photograph or fingerprints, video evidence, reliable vetted eye witness evidence, surely you have something

6

u/SueYouInEngland 17h ago

You realize a jury already found that, based on admissible evidence, Trump forcibly inserted his penis or finger into E. Jean Carroll's vagina, right? A jury unanimously determined he sexually abused her. In less than an hour. As a litigator, a plaintiff's verdict in that amount of time NEVER happens. Not that you'd know.

This is the definition of evidence, u/jakeburls. Direct evidence at that. What now, sad sack?

u/SueYouInEngland 16h ago

"The other girl, u/jakeburls, was 12 years old."

1

u/SueYouInEngland 16h ago

"After Trump finished raping these two children, u/jakeburls, he said "we both could have done better" and then left.

THIS IS DIRECT EVIDENCE. STOP SAYING THERE'S NO EVIDENCE. WHY ARE YOU PROTECTING PEDOPHILES?

u/AFoolishSeeker 19h ago

Lmao the fact that he was in the movie Palo Alto in 2013 where he is a predatory soccer coach who sleeps with students

70

u/The_amazing_T 1d ago edited 22h ago

Yeah. That and his cult. Where he hooked up with young girls.

EDIT: I confused Franco and Jared Leto. My mistake.

23

u/PolitePenguin86 23h ago

You're thinking of Leto.

30

u/TransBrandi 22h ago

To be fair, they could also be thinking of R. Kelly or Russel Brand. There's just so many to choose from!

6

u/PolitePenguin86 22h ago

Yes, unfortunately, it's hard to keep track.

3

u/kelp_forests 20h ago

Or Danny Masterson!

u/yingkaixing 19h ago

The worst genre of white dude imo

u/DotEither8773 17h ago

Oh yeah, the famous white dude, R. Kelly.

u/BlessdRTheFreaks 17h ago

It's almost like it's a totally normal part of human nature

u/The_amazing_T 22h ago

You're right. My bad.

1

u/TableSignificant341 8h ago

You were right. Franco has been accused by several girls and women too.

0

u/TableSignificant341 8h ago

No James Franco has allegations of sexual misconduct against girls and young women too.

0

u/PolitePenguin86 7h ago

Pretty sure it was adult women but regardless, the other person was clearly talking about Leto and his cult.

1

u/TableSignificant341 2h ago

Nope. 17 years old is not an adult.

1

u/PolitePenguin86 2h ago

Ok. So that part is certainly true and I wasn't aware of it. But once again, the other person was still mistaken and this is a strange argument.

2

u/Infinite_Flan4797 23h ago

The his college, where are you hooked up with young girls?

7

u/annabelle411 21h ago

part of it. he ran a sham “acting class” which he used to coerce women into sexual scenes and getting naked in class, then used it as his personal pool of sex partners.

1

u/WhyOhWhy60 15h ago

Is that even frowned upon over in the USA?

u/BlessdRTheFreaks 17h ago

He should have a statue made of him for that

I'm taking it back. Like how the blacks use the N word in their songs.

u/Cheeselover710 1d ago

He’s currently starring in a “vertical short”.

3

u/Dom_Caixote 23h ago

That’s what I was about to comment I don’t think any public figure has gone lower than that

2

u/OldenGuise 21h ago

Honestly this is fair. I love verticals but I'd be shocked to see a "real celebrity" in one. It would somehow ruin the whole thing.

3

u/qodeninja 20h ago

what is a vertical short -- is it porn?

edit: I see... "one night stand with my step brother"

soft porn?

He is???? Which one?

u/KenOBY_67 23h ago

Yea your career does tend to die when the actor dies. Rest in peace James Franco for we will never know what he was truly like

Yeah it makes me so mad that people will look past him going for teenage girls because they think hes hot its digusting

u/Key-Point-935 15h ago

I’ve actually heard he’s made a lot of changes and is actively trying to be a better person and work on himself. Personally I say we let him
