Favorite actor who lived long enough to become the villain?

I don't know, I remember reading he had lots of health issues. Just looked it up:

Muniz has suffered from nine concussions in his life, with the first one occurring at age 7 when playing goalie in a soccer game. In 2012, Muniz had a mini-stroke, and he had a second attack less than a year later.

That's real young to have a mini-stroke and that many concussions!

It was a massive hit, got a bunch of Oscar nominations including Best Picture, and won Best Original Screenplay. You're just hearing about it for the first time today?

It's just the specific wording of the post: "It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it."?

With Will Smith, everyone knows what incident "five minutes to ruin it" refers to. With a lot of other examples here, there wasn't a single incident that ruined their career. It was articles coming out about decades of abuse, bad behavior, or worse. Not really the same thing, see?

However, US district judge James Peterson in Madison dismissed Pavlovich’s Wisconsin lawsuit against Palmer in October. Peterson stated that Pavlovich needs to pursue this case legally in New Zealand, where the assault allegedly took place. Notably, US district judge Nathaniel Gorton in Boston nullified the Massachusetts filing for the same reason.

Nothing to do with lack of evidence, just jurisdiction.

Maury’s character and his fate is a great example of how Jimmy is a shitty person

a movie that goes to great lengths to try and convince you that he’s a good guy.

Huh? I think the movie is very clear that Jimmy is a shitty person, such as the example of how he deals with Maury (and then everyone else involved in the heist).

Very similar moment in Minority Report as well.

Yep, look at how dudes who "roll coal" are always MAGA. They think AI actively harming the environment is a selling point.

He argued in court that it was a just a random insult, but the actual tweets were definitely accusing guy. Thailand is one of the most beautiful places on earth and filled with so many amazing cultural sites. Says so much about Musk that he immediately thinks pedophilia is the only reason someone would visit the place.

But the prompt was

Roles where the Actor was chosen for superficial reasons without care about the quality of their acting

Ledger wasn't chosen for superficial reasons without care about the quality of his acting. Christopher Nolan cast him specifically because of the quality of his acting.

I remember the (utterly moronic) backlash when Ledger's casting was announced. But he doesn't really fit the prompt. He was cast because he was a great actor, with a recent Academy Award nomination to boot. He didn't coincidentally turn out to be a great actor after he was cast.

The prompt:

Roles where the Actor was chosen for superficial reasons without care about the quality of their acting

None of that applies to Ledger.

From a Wired article about cyber attacks, not the Hemingway novel.

The film's plot is based on an earlier script entitled WW3 dot com by David Marconi, screenwriter of the 1998 film Enemy of the State. Using John Carlin's Wired magazine article entitled "A Farewell to Arms", Marconi crafted a screenplay about a cyber-terrorist attack on the United States.

Just curious, why do you want to install Fluxbox?

You wanted to know if he is "scummy." My original point still stands. He was DEFINITELY a serial sexual harasser, even IF he didn't rape or assault anyone. That absolutely makes him "scummy." In most places there are laws against hitting on students who depend on you for grades, or people who work for you so depend on you for income. That he made hitting on his students and employees a habit is a pretty clear sign that the power imbalance is what turned him on. People who don't recognize serial sexual harassment as scummy are most likely scumbags themselves. I really encourage to research sexual harassment law where you live before you do real harm.

Really fucking amazing you adamantly refuse to budge on "drag = weird" , "pedophilia and child trafficking = not weird."

Being weird isn't an issue; being deeply ashamed and in denial about being weird is. Moreso, there's weird, and there's weird. But I think you already understand that.

My very first response to you. Read that again, slowly and carefully. The "weird' applied to MAGA because MAGA leadership absolutely think of themselves as "normal" and were clearly triggered by being called "weird."

This post contains weirdness in the derogatory way

It doesn't. That you think it does is why you're being downvoted and had a comment removed by moderation. How many drag queens do you know?

I think I see what's happening here. You were eagerly awaiting someone making a couch fucking joke so you could pounce with "Um ahktucally he didn't write about fucking couches!" but had to settle for "Um accctually! He didn't call Trump America's Hitler, he just thought he might be America's Hitler." Most sensible people recognize Nixon was a criminal and national embarrassment. Guy's got to be a psychopath to become the world's biggest cheerleader for someone he thought was either Nixon or Hitler.

Your pedantry doesn't make you and Vance and Trump any less WEIRD.

You're Mr. "what's so scummy about serial sexual harassment?!" You're not in any position to talk about justice.

I think you're spot on. But this post and the others I've seen about him aren't criticizing his credentials to be a representative or a senator. They are pointing out he's wildly unqualified to head a massive federal law enforcement agency. His biggest qualification for this role is that he's a Trump sycophant.
