Never stick your wiener in crazy,it isn't worth it.

They should fire Ezra Miller. But they made him a key part of 2 franchises. Fantastic Beasts and Flash. The guys is throwing a good potential career.

It's utterly ridiculous that WB hasn't at least released a statement disowning Ezra; they should fire him, but they won't even publicly speak out against his actions. It was bad enough when he was caught on video choking that girl and throwing her to the ground a few years ago, they should have fired him from Fantastic Beasts 3 then, but instead they kept him and fired Depp instead even though there isn't a shred of credible evidence against him, and then gave Ezra the lead role in Flash too. Now the psychopath has received 10 police complaints in the last month (for everything from photographing people without their permission to refusing to leave the sidewalk in front of a restaurant), has been kicked out of every bar he went to in the last month, got arrested for disorderly conduct and harassment after heckling somebody at a karaoke bar, and then immediately after getting let out on bail, broke into the home of the couple he had been staying with who had recently kicked him out, threatened to murder them both, and then stole both their wallets, which contained money, credit cards, their social security cards, and their passports. 

I've about had it up to here with WB recently, were it not for the fact that I don't want to hurt JK Rowling and want to see all 5 Fantastic Beasts movies released, I would boycott Fantastic Beasts 3. For the sake of JK and the Fantastic Beasts series I will still watch it, but I'm definitely boycotting Flash since they put Ezra in it and Aquaman 2 since they kept Amber in it, and most likely all of the other movies WB releases the next few years (I haven't seen The Batman yet and probably won't now, same goes for DC League of Super Pets, I wanted to see it but I'll likely skip it now).

Yep. While I certainly don't support everything she does, as I lean more toward the right of center and her towards the left of center, I definitely support her current battle for the rights of biological females to have their own sports and their own safe spaces (restrooms/locker rooms, women's shelters, prisons, etc.); their right to not be subjected to embarrassing sports losses like we have seen with Lia Thomas recently, their right to be able to go into a locker room or bathroom without seeing a penis, their right to go to prison that only contains other women and not "women" with penises between their legs. On that I stand with JK, and I suspect that the majority of people agree with her on that. The fact that the left has chosen such a strange issue to cancel her over is baffling to me.

IT's kind of telling that you make a point to clarify that you don't see eye to eye because she's left of center...but then go on to extol the virtues of the one thing she says/does that's bigoted and parroted by the right. 

I mean, I've done a tonne of research on trans biology and psychology, and I will assure you that none of your concerns  (or hers) are valid based on any stats or facts of historical precedent...but I also know that I could write a 10,000 word essay on the matter with links to studies and detailed psychological breakdowns on why each of these concerns are misguided or based on falsehoods...but I know it won't do anything. All most people think is 'ew, girls with penises are gross', but they know that's bigoted so they find the more appealing sounding but equally asanine 'there's a potential for people to fake it just to be pervs and therefore that invalidates all trans people' narrative. 

with all sincerity, I can assure you no trans people are faking it just to get a look at girls in the bathroom. IT's just not a thing that happens with any semblance of regularity. does it happen? sure, anything you can think of probably has happened. but any person could murder you with a gun but you don't ban people from public spaces just because an infinitesimally small fraction of the populace is prone to unacceptable behaviour. Nobody's going through years of therapy, hormone replacement treatment, surgery, and a lifetime of discomfort/public ridicule to present as their true self just to get pervy looks at women in bathrooms. 

Your stance on the matter is not grounded in reality and I truly hope that some day you'll get some perspective beyond 'ewww, girls with penises are gross and therefore wrong', which clearly is the basis and starting point of like 99% of all transphobia. 

You know how I know? I used to be the exact same way. I used to think the exact same thing. But then....then I did a bit more research, compared the pros and cons of someone in that situation, actually read the studies and acquainted myself with a few trans ladies....and that's all it took. some perspective and an open mind. Then you'll see your concerns are completely unfounded and based on faulty logic. 

but then again I can't tell you that you aren't entitled to your emotions. Again, I used to feel the same way. However, regardless of your stance on the matter, it's still a form of bigotry and once you learn to get over that and realize that your fears are unfounded, maybe you'll change your perspective. 

It honestly baffles me that so many people out there are on that side of the argument. Y'all realize that in 5-10 years you'll be as ostracized for your views as people today are if they call gay dudes fags or something. That's how progress works. As we come to understand more of the human psyche, as we come to see how things work and how our bodies work and how the mind works, the clearer understanding we'll have about what's good, what's bad, what's neutral, and how to deal with it. Trans folks get a tonne of hatred, and none of it is based in reality, it's all based on emotional responses to the icky penis ladies. 

Tell me, do you also not want gay dudes in men's restrooms in case straight guys get uncomfortable having a gay dude checking them out? Honest question. 

Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard trial starts tomorrow here in my home state of Virginia. Fingers crossed for Johnny to finally see justice, I don't see how any jury could look at the evidence and side with Amber at this point:

-She can't back up $7m in donations she was supposed to make with the money she received from her divorce settlement with receipts

-The first 2 police officers who showed up have gone on record saying that they saw no evidence of domestic abuse on her and no property damage

-We have the recording of Amber saying that she couldn't promise not to hit Johnny anymore

-We have the photo of Johnny's finger severed after she threw a heavy ashtray at him

-We have Amber's past domestic violence arrest in 2009

-2 of Amber's character witnesses who will be called during the trial are James Franco (himself accused of sexual coercion by 6 women) and Elon Musk (who Johnny claims committed adultery with Amber while he was still married to Amber), not exactly shining examples of Amber's character

It does seem like it will at least break even though, already at $193m worldwide after 2 weekends international (only 1 weekend in most international markets, as the first week was only 22 markets) and 1 weekend domestic. Needs $400-450m to break even. User reviews have been good (83% positive on Rotten Tomatoes with 4.3/5 average, B+ CinemaScore, 81% PostTrak) so the good word of mouth should contribute to pretty good legs for it, so I think box office should at least come close to the break even point with Blu-Ray/DVD/Digital sales turning them a small profit in the end, as well as the movie getting good streaming views on HBO Max once it hits HBO Max. I think that WB will be happy with a performance like that during Covid (we've seen them greenlight sequels to movies that did worse during Covid), and will go ahead and greenlight 4 and 5 to finish the series out, probably with a somewhat lower budget than 2's and 3's $200m each budgets (filming 4 and 5 back to back would also cut down on their combined budget vs filming them separately). 

This was probably the best case scenario for me, I wanted the movie to do well enough to get 4 and 5 greenlit, but also to perform under WB expectations to punish them for what they did to Johnny while also keeping Amber and Ezra employed.
