The Harry Knowles/Alamo Drafthouse/Fantastic Fest shit is gross

 

I hadn't heard about this until now. I understand Knowles has some sexual allegations against him, how is Drafthouse/Fantastic Fest involved?

 

He's a founder of FF isn't he? Plus them rehiring Faraci

 

Gotcha. I didn't realize Knowles was involved in FF. The entire thing is pretty fucked.

 

This is a pretty good breakdown of everything.

Saw this earlier, couldn't believe it. I don't know how JTE managed to prevent himself from leaping across the table on Movie Fights this week. Goddammit. Glad those women were able to come forward.

 

Glad more and more of the scumbags are being called out after years of abuse, but jesus when will this shit stop?

 

It is systemic of capitalism and power.

 

absolutely. but it's still disheartening, particularly when it seems like another name comes out daily.

 

Yes, but in a way it is hopeful because there are actual consequences when they are exposed compared to earlier times. I don't know if we will ever reach the place where we need to be, though.

 

Happy 20th anniversary to Boogie Nights!
