Geena Davis on Bill Murray (Quick Change)

https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2023...ays-abuse.html

Basically, Murray used intimidation and verbal abuse to put recent Oscar winner Davis "in her place" and assert his power and authority over her. Coercing her to try a massage bed during one of those Hollywood meetings in a hotel room. Screaming at her and pushing her around when they were filming in public.

I hope that one of the #MeToo fixes was the elimination of the hotel room meeting.

“No, it never happened. I would never do such a thing,” Allen told Variety in a statement.

This is Anderson getting the word out about her book. A nothing burger "revelation" about a name famous enough to generate tweets and click bait headlines.

I’m sure Wilson was peering over or through something. Maybe he can chime in.

Allen denied the incident in a statement to CNN.

“No, it never happened,” he said in the statement. “I would never do such a thing.”

Yeah, and I'm sure he would never traffic drugs either.

I'm sure Tim Allen flashed her, but not to harasse her. He probably thought it's funny. It isn't, but it's nothing Louis C.K. either.

The plot, errr, thickens:

So what do we think of the scene on Parks when Pratt was apparently naked when a door was opened to his character.

I don't get the controversy. He was wearing boxer shorts under the kilt.. My nephew and his friends danced in their boxer shorts in a high school talent show.

Like I said before, every story about this non-story mentions Anderson's book. I am a little surprised that the NY Post would intentionally go after famously right-wing Tim Allen

Wow, Adult Swim takes drastic action and are continuing Rick and Morty, but are removing Roiland recasting the voice.
