I'm not sure how WB not firing Gadot for a totally separate issue has anything to do with Disney firing Carano.

Oh, I just brought it up because before Gadot was cast Carano was a constant fan cast idea for Wonder Woman, and Gadot has different, but also very terrible terrible opinions. You are correct that there's no direct connection. Edit: phone posting so correcting some spelling/grammar errors. Air Skwirl fucked around with this message at 22:33 on Feb 12, 2021 |

I really hope Gina Carano's new project is just a Mandalorian rip off, where she has to carry Lil' Ben around the whole time to keep him safe from Antifa. I wouldn't watch it, but I'd be highly amused.

She's probably gonna run for congress at this point. Not in LA, she'll move to some right wing podunk long enough to establish residency and then never return.

The bummer is that these film projects will probably actually get made. Comicsgate really spoiled us with obvious rightwing grifts that also fell flat on their face immediately. fun hater posted:this information slaps bc circus circus sucks total rear end. the one in reno has a parking garage where people go to commit suicide Oh man, really? I know Circus Circus because it’s Jerma’s favorite casino, probably due to his bizarre clown fixation. Knowing it’s actually a piece of poo poo would make that so much funnier.

Glenn Carano played in the NFL and is worth several million dollars and also runs the Eldorado and the Silver Legacy so when she was talking about the 'working class' briefly all those in the know just shook their heads.

Anything in that range of salaries would be comfortably middle class, probably upper-middle class by 1980s standards, but by the time Gina Carano turned 3, the USFL team her dad was playing for folded and he was out of a job. The next year he started working in the casino business and has been there ever since, at some point I am sure he got full-on rich, but it's possible that when she was a kid the Carano family was not living high on the hog. Though reading more about this, Glenn Carano's dad and uncle were the principle investors behind the El Dorado and the casino chain he now manages, so never mind, it's incredibly unlikely her family didn't have a substantial safety net even if her dad was out of a job for a spell when she was younger. Mostly I just think it's interesting to note how many MLB/NFL/NBA players from the relatively recent past didn't make all that much money, considering how sky-high the contracts are now. But yeah, add this to the pile of disingenuous poo poo from Gina Carano.

We stayed off Freemont Street in a place advertising $5 sexy blackjack and it was nicer than Circus Circus.

Just for reference for any future trip to Vegas. Can anyone tell me a place on the strip that isn't run by enormous assholes? Not being snarky, I'd really like to feel like I'm not supporting the most blatant dregs of humanity when i go, and it seems like that's 100% of casino owners that I've read about.

Gambling sort of requires preying on human misery to be successful. You don't become a casino guy unless you are absolutely A-OK with the idea of making your money by goading people into spending more than they can afford while minimizing how much you give out.

Oh, true. I'd just feel the slightest bit less dirty if my money went to some soulless corporate entity rather than Sheldon fuckin' Adelson. That said, I only go to Vegas for the cons, so I probably don't have to deal with it for some time yet.

I was there for a wedding and I won seventy bucks on slots. I also went to a churrascuria and saw Penn and Teller, who I had liked as a child. In the final analysis, I won at Las Vegas and have not yet returned.

Eat the cheap but great food and never gamble. The food's usually on thin margins to keep people in the casino.

Boreanaz also came out in support of Carpenter on the Whedon stuff: https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/story/2021-02-15/david-boreanaz-buffy-stars-support-charisma-carpenter-joss-whedon-claims

Has ANYBODY spoken up in defense of Whedon? I don't think I've seen a single instance of it. It's an imressive measure of 1) how egregious his behavior was and 2) how far down the showbiz power rankings he's fallen in the last few years.

To he fair to Tudyk, he was likely too busy dealing with Adam Baldwin being a piece of poo poo constantly.

From Boreanaz' statement it sounds like he never personally saw any of it, but believes them. It may be a case where he just had favorites he didn't gently caress with, and Tudyk was one of them.
