So I wonder where Casey learned it from?

Da-Kid · Oct 11, 2017

Well... at least he apologized with no bullshit.

He should apologize for Gigli since he's in such a mood.

He probably would too because there is no way he is being sincere with that apology.

But remember, the real danger is women making false accusations and ending careers with an offhand remark.

Just looking at this thread, the tendency to shift narrative is real. Anything to direct the blame away from the actual perpetrator, who's apparently a stand-up guy in their eyes. The same thing happened when Amber Heard made her case against Johnny Depp.

santi_yo said:

Yes because that's the real issues here. Not the fact that Affleck molested women. He was accused of molesting a woman and apologizes. What do you call that? Admission is my thought. Meanwhile not one word either of you said to condemn his action.

Chindogg · Oct 11, 2017

I curious to see where the timeline of this all is with him getting divorced and realizing he was a drunken piece of shit recently. Is he truly repentant now or is it just business as usual.

Either way, he'll be lying low for a couple of years before making the usual Hollywood comeback barring any rape accusations.

Turin · Oct 11, 2017

He always seemed like a skeevy jock to me.

Didn't care for him as Batman either.

well realistically what can he say? he didn't make excuses about why he did it.

Holy crap you're being such a baby lol. Who in this thread is shifting the blame away from him?! Or are you still somehow misinterpreting that "everywhere" post

Excuse YOU? No. I have NEVER done this to any woman. EVER. It helps that I'm gay but again, NO just NO. I'm sure there are straight men who have never done this either.

No, hes right. You need to understand that men are socialized differently than women. Whether youre a cis-man who identifies as either B or G, youre still going to be a product of your socialization. Further, misogynsitic conditioning results in the demonization of more feminine gay/bi men over more masculine gay/bi men.

For now. They've been debating on recasting Batman for a while now.

Random Human said:
The problem with lying low is he has a huge promotional tour coming up.

True. Now I'm even more curious if anyone outside of internet blogs tries to press him on this?

Shaanyboi · Oct 11, 2017

Well he's in "good company" with Whedon now.

Don't drag Gigli into this. It already ended Martin Brest's career.

Whedon was a serial cheater, but not a groper, no?

WB isn't stupid enough to show the man's face anywhere from now until November.

Whedon is basically Devin Faraci.

Yeah he's been a flake ever since his movie bombed and his personal life started to go downhill. I'd be down for Lee Pace to take over. After catching up on Halt and Catch Fire, I think he'd be perfect as Bruce and he has the stature for Batman. He balances being a sociopath with genuine sadness and likeability really well.

You cannot seriously think that he would only apologize now if he was sincere. He benefited from people forgetting and was fine with that. He apologized to save his ass now that he was getting called out.This is obvious.
The apology is super half assed so he can totally fuck off even more than before.

Well the allegations against Whedon say he used his power as director/producer to accost the women working under him. So it's not merely being unfaithful.

Dude you seriously need to take a step back, calm down and think before you post. You're getting way too emotional and you're misinterpreting a bunch of stuff.

Yes sure, because me not liking others shifting the narrative is the real problem here. What's your opinion on the thread title? I didn't see you saying anything about Affleck here.

Damn! And Jeffrey Dean Morgan is her husband! You can bet he's gonna beat the living hell out of Ben Half of an Ass Lick
