What perverted joke do you see in this scene?

Fingerprints/finger Prince, hence her reaction.

It’s an old and extremely well worn example of “they sneak in things for adults to laugh at while their kids enjoy the wacky characters and bright colours!” thinking.

I'm pretty sure that was a photoshoot for an album cover

No it’s a thing.

Exactly how badly can you beat a random stranger in a racially motivated attack before it stops being acceptable then?

I thought Pee Wee just jacked off in a porn theater. (Which, I’ve never been, but isn’t that the point of those places?) He didn’t have child porn, did he?

This was like a decade after his porn theatre thing. I think it ended up that they either never found any child porn or it was a handful of things in a huge collection of weird vintage porn he’d amassed in bulk purchases, so as far as anyone could tell he may have legitimately not known it was in there and it didn’t look like he’d gone out of his way to buy child porn or there’d surely have been more of it.

He put them in the movie explicitly so he had an excuse to do those things in a way that everyone would accept was legitimate while inside he was probably just super stoked that he got to suck some toes.

It’s not difficult to see why that’s gross.

Screenwriters sometimes put things they find sexy into their scripts.

And when they write themselves doing those things they find sexy to their co-stars, it’s gross, yes.

Uh, wearing balaclavas for warmth isn't exactly a thing for the news so you might think a huge number of people do it completely unobserved.

News isn’t the only form of media that exists.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a film or tv show where someone wore a balaclava for any reason other than Doing A Crime. It totally scans that people would be set to assume that before they remembered “oh yeah it’s just winter clothing and it’s cold as gently caress out here”.

Some of the nuttiest Q people literally already excused it as “Trump obviously had to go to Epstein’s island and gently caress kids to maintain his cover as the saviour of America, he had no choice and is a hero for doing so” when it first came out.

What the gently caress, this is real? Is it archive footage, and someone else doing the voiceover? Or are they filming him separate and green screening him in for…reasons I can’t figure out.

He was fired for being a creep but they kept the character instead of having him die on his way back to his home planet, by magic of stand ins, recutting existing dialogue takes and bad CGI.

If he admitted it in the context of his comedy special does that count or could he pull some bullshit “no the character of Louis CK that I play on stage only admitted to that, I have admitted to nothing” thing?

This might be paranoia on my part, but I'm noticing that my various streaming things (apple TV, chromecast, etc) are all suggesting a lot more Johnny Depp stuff. I was already getting the Youtube stuff and occasional facebook stuff. It may simply be a coincidence (or simply the algorithm cashing in on something people are already looking for) but it's still pretty loving weird.

I visit YouTube exclusively in incognito mode because gently caress feeding their algorithms anything more than the bare minimum of info about me and it’s been suggesting “funny Johnny Depp OWNS in court” videos at me all week after pretty much anything on there.

Didn't Tyson just beat the poo poo out of a guy on a plane a couple of weeks ago?

Not sexual assault and the guy was being annoying.... but uhhh, still bad.

The guy was apparently drunk and rowdy, and Tyson had asked him to stop bothering him already before the dude threw a bottle at him.

In an ideal world he wouldn’t have punched him but at the same time you can see how a lot of people might have had the same reaction to some belligerent drunk dickhead throwing things and talking poo poo.

Or if he admits it then all the allegations of him doing creepy poo poo with actors’ feet suddenly have potential weight and merit instead of just being a meme on the internet he can laugh off.

Right, but defamation needs to be false, so how are both "He abused me" and "She's lying" defamatory? Dumb jury

Because they’re being told to make a decision based on specific statements and how truthful or accurate they believe they were about those very specific circumstances being discussed, not an overall “which one of these people is the biggest shitbag in the relationship” position.

I mean, that was exactly what Depp's strategy was. He never made any attempt to prove she lied about saying she was the victim of domestic abuse, he just made sure the jury knew she was also a weird hollywood piece of poo poo and relied on the jury going 'well I assume she lied there too then', that and almost certainly had a massive media time posting epic memes about his lawyer crushing that stupid bitch who looked to the side once or whatever those buckets of weird freaks on youtube kept talking about.

Absolutely.

I’m not trying to defend the decision and say it’s cool and good haha gently caress that stupid idiot female, I’m saying it’s not really as simple as “wow what a stupid jury” when the case is about very specific incidents in specific circumstances and not just a straight up A/B test of which side is actually the hero and which is the villain of the piece.

Terrible Opinions posted:

But it has because of the dumpfuck jury

Again, the jury aren’t being asked to make a moral decision.

They’re being asked to make a decision, given a very specific set of details, about a very specific set of circumstances.

Blaming the jury is stupid.

A jury isn’t supposed to find a defendant to not have done something just because they think (rightly or wrongly) that the plaintiff in question deserved what happened to them.
