Scorsese2002 09/23/21 11:41:27 AM #1:	https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/johnny-depp-cancel-culture-1235018678/ Johnny Depp took aim at cancel culture and described it as being so far out of hand while discussing his fall from grace in Hollywood during an appearance at the San Sebastian Film Festival. Its a complex situation because it can be seen as an event in history that lasted for however long it lasted for, this cancel culture, or this instant rush to judgment based on, essentially, what amounts to polluted air thats exhaled, Depp told the press at the Spanish festival. The actor was speaking in the wake of his libel case against British tabloid The Sun, which characterized Deep as a wife-beater as it related to the treatment of ex-wife Amber Heard. He lost that court case and subsequently did not appear in the third entry in Warner Bros. Fantastic Beasts franchise. The British court ruled in the papers favor, with the judge saying there was substantial evidence including Heards restraining order against Depp to suggest he had been abusive toward her and that she feared for her life. Do I feel safe myself? Yea, I do. Because its important when youre faced with something as mind-bogglingly bewildering, that sort of things hits you from many angles, Depp continued. But the actor said cancel culture as a movement is so far out of hand now that I can promise you that no one is safe. Not one of you. No one out that door. No one is safe, as long as someone is willing to say one sentence. San Sebastian honored Depp with its Donostia Award, a lifetime achievement honor that recognizes outstanding contributions to the film world. Despite that attention from the European festival, Depp argued that one accusation can lead to career ruin, to no more ground, the carpet has been pulled. Its not just me that this has happened to. Its happened to a lot of people. He added, Nobody out there, we dont know what anyone is thinking at any moment. But I believe that no one is safe. But if you are armed with the truth, thats all you need. It doesnt matter if a judgment, per se, has taken some artistic license. Depp also told the festival presser that Hollywood had become too commercial for his cinematic tastes. From my point of view, as someone who does take part in the creation and collaboration of making cinema, how much more formula do we need from the likes of studios? How much more condescension as an audience do we need with regard to, OK folks, were now going to hit you with the whole plot of the story every 20 minutes. I think that Hollywood has grotesquely underestimated the audience, he argued. Depp added that many families were turning to streaming platforms because they could no longer afford a night out for dinner and a movie at the multiplex: So I think the Hollywood movie machine has a few design flaws that theyre just realizing. Im glad I saw them coming, personally. --- https://www.twitch.tv/dtake86 <cite>Scorsese2002 posted [p:958330677] in Johnny Dep...

Lost_All_Senses 09/23/21 4:07:58 PM #21:	Tbf, he still got "caught" doing Blackface. Because he sure as hell didn't bring it up and had no plan too lol. I bet he wish he beat Push to the pumch now tho. In the same way you can get caught deeding. It's just embarrassing more so than anything else. But Drake always been a lame, so it didn't really phase him. If nobody drops him when he does that terrible shit where he flirts with high schoolers like he's also in high school on stage, they'll stickin with him through anything. That's the lamest shit I ever seen, even taking the pedo shit out of the equation.

gamer167 09/23/21 4:11:08 PM #22:	Chris Breezy pretty much got the ultimate cancel culture pass. They came for Johnny and even though he was pretty much completely exonerated he still has an unjustified black eye from it. Chris Brown beat up someone who, at the time, could have been considered the biggest pop star in the world and his career didnt hit so much as a speed bump.
