    She's been with men and then with women (and really advertising it in our 'woke' world), in this interview she actually clarifies her position.  It is usually ?? when a woman who has been with men for a decade and even has children suddenly switches.

     

    The news for me is that she has been with men, almost all of the pictures I have seen of her with a (potential) significant other they have always been women.

    I liked Pierce Brosnan movies a lot. Roger Moore and Sean Connery as well.

     

    Henry Cavill is good, he might be too kind for the role, but he's a good actor so it could pull it off.

     

    Connery is still the character in my mind. Has the most good to great Bond films.

    I really only like Goldeneye from Brosnan's run.

  3. Most of the best Bond films are still the Sean Connery ones.

    My favorite three would be Thunderball, From Russia With Love and Dr. No. In that order.

    Of the subsequent ones, I didn't really care much for most of the Roger Moore era. I did like The Living Daylights (first of the Timothy Dalton ones) and Goldeneye (first of the Pierce Brosnan ones). I think Daniel Craig only made one good one, Skyfall.

  4. I'm not a usual proponent of "woke is broke" type thinking but I did have to laugh when I watched the X-Men '97 reboot/continuation and saw they had given Rogue a flat butt. :rofl:

     

    I guess they had an actual discussion what to do with the 'Rogue butt' from the original show and their solution was to go entirely the opposite direction. Which is dumb, the change is so massive that they actually attract attention to it.

    I have heard "experts" saying she has a sure win... so, here's a fair question: how trustworthy are the "experts" in the media? My guess is often times: not so much. 😅

     

    The "experts" I heard said that Disney didn't take all measures to properly fire her (she learned about it on... social media. Not very classy and quite borderline in terms of legality.

     

    I guess we'll see what the court has to say in the end ;) (and I hope Disney loses).

     

    Well it's not like I will be sad if Disney loses money.

    But this case has implications far beyond Disney.

    When I turn on tv and I only watch Cartoons in this channel

     

    Are you a teacher or schizophrenic?

     

    Knowing that Disney has made live action movies for 70+ years makes one schizophrenic? Okay.

    I was happier when Disney was only cartoons

     

    They haven't been "only cartoons" since the 1940s (when they made films that were a mix of live action and animation) or 1950s (when they made their first 100% live action films).

    Did you read the lawsuit? She sues them for wrongful termination.

     

    They are not "forced" to employ anyone. This is not the point. The point is that there are rules to fire employees. They didn't respect the laws on how to fire her.

     

    Also, they discriminated her since they used an argument to fire her and didn't use it on other employee. Another claim is that many employees and execs from Disney harassed her.

    When the first rumblings came out about her possibly suing, I read some experts who claimed her lawsuit had little chance of success.

     

    It would essentially mean any actor who is dropped from a series could claim discrimination and forced to be rehired. I'm not sure how the industry is meant to work in that way.

    + Also a terrorist attack in a Moscow concert hall killed a claimed 40 people and injured 130 more.  The footage shows men in military gear gun down civilians with automatic weapons, they also detonated incendiary devices to collapse the roof of the building.

     

     

     

     

    I read claims that U.S. intelligence passed on intel that suggested such an attack might be imminent? Or was that inaccurate reporting?

    Good for Gina. She fights back against the monsters from Disney. She's a great person and a fighter at heart. :heart:

     

    I don't like Disney (at all) but this is insane. So media companies are now forced to employ actors? That's a new way of doing business I guess.
