it requires a willful misreading of what he said to think he was talking crap

Posted by: Moviesnob on Mar 11, 20:29 in response to Antibody's post He talked crap about ballet and opera.

Does no one care about opera or ballet? of course some people do and he clearly knows that because of his family but for some people, you can't use things in a colloquial way

TCHAL's campaign for Marty Supreme will be a case study on what not to do. Antibody Mar 11, 16:17

Nominated for an Oscar? Don't be a d1ck. {nm} Rocket Mar 11, 16:30

How's he being a dick? COmpared to Sean Penn. Doesn't show up for BAFTA and he wins SAG. Doesn't show up for SAG so he wins Oscar? {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 11, 16:36

He talked crap about ballet and opera. {nm} Antibody Mar 11, 16:44

Additionally his mother was a professional dancer and her sister started out dancing then turned to acting {nm} RamsFan2004 Mar 11, 16:53

So he knows what he's talking about. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 11, 18:29

Who cares? When was the last time you went to the ballet or opera? TheWeekendWarrior Mar 11, 18:27

The Oscar voters who didn't vote for him clearly cared. {nm} Antibody Mar 11, 19:44

That YOU don't care or see the relevance doesn't mean that, de facto, no one else does either. Rocket Mar 11, 20:13

could he have said it better? sure, but he wasn't being malicious. Outrage is a common stimulus now {nm} Moviesnob Mar 11, 20:32

Couldn't agree more. Pretty neutral on TC, but since he comes from a background educated in that domain, it's much ado about nothing. {nm} Abraxas Mar 11, 22:00

Exactly. Well said. These days. Everyone wants to rage. TheWeekendWarrior Mar 12, 00:51

False equivalency. {nm} Rocket Mar 11, 20:13

I wonder how much Penske Media got paid by WB to write these pieces (obviously not the EW one) {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 11, 16:40

Make no mistake, these kind of pieces are orchestrated by people working in PR on other movies TheWeekendWarrior Mar 11, 16:41

The secret voter ones are not part of PR campaigns. They don't need to be. People line up to do them. They love being able to talk about it {nm} Moviesnob Mar 11, 16:45

The mudslinging campaign started with the smear campaign against Josh Safdie, the I Swear BAFTA thing likely boosted SINNERS too. {nm} notfabio Mar 11, 16:58

I've a friend in the industry who said Warner are deliberately keeping the I Swear BAFTA story alive for Sinners' Oscar campaign {nm} numbersix_99 Mar 12, 06:43

Complete BS. You have no friends {nm} Moviesnob Mar 12, 07:54

Even if they are hit pieces, The ballet / opera stuff was an unforced error tho {nm} RamsFan2004 Mar 11, 16:45

Same question to you that I asked Antibody {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 11, 18:28

But if you’re Tim, why even say it? Even if it’s true. {nm} RamsFan2004 Mar 11, 18:54

what's hilarious is he followed it up with an "all respect" comment and then screwed that up too tealfan Mar 11, 22:50
