Finslly someone goes on the record about this. It should be noted that in Feldman's book Coreyography he implies that Dominick Brascia also had sex with Haim when he was underage (though Feldman uses the pseudonym "Tony Burnham"). Also he's the fat guy who gets axed in the back in Friday the 13th Part V.

I'd like to say that I'll never watch Lucas again but that would be a lie. It's a really good movie, and it's on HBO Go now.

Brascia is just one of more than 100 people, spread across ten states, contacted by The ENQUIRER as part of its exhaustive probe. His horrid account — after 30-plus years of self-imposed silence — matches those of dozens of other sources who also told The ENQUIRER that Haim named Sheen, now 52 and considered a pariah in Hollywood, as his abuser before he died of pneumonia in 2010.

It's fucked that the guy who also was accused of raping Haim is the only one to go on the record. But with dozens of other sources finally confirming, I'm glad that what we all knew for a long time is out there.

A third individual — a convicted child sex offender — told The ENQUIRER Haim revealed sordid details about the Sheen incident when they worked together on “Lost Boys.”

well I guess the sources are probably either victims or predators.

The stuff with people like Weinstein and Spacey, sadly isn't shocking

Did not expect to check the news today and see Charlie Sheen buttfucking an underage Corey Haim :-\

Hollywood is so scummy, at this point I'd bet on anyone who's been there long enough to be dirty

Sex, drugs and Rock N Roll are cool. Pedophilia and rape culture aren't. Fuck anyone who's done that shit

I will say the same thing I've been telling everyone, this stuff isn't only Hollywood, it's everywhere. You hang around men in the workplace long enough you'll see it yourself. People are required to say nothing as a function of living, people can't afford to lose their jobs. The last place I thought this would happen is at my dad's workplace, but it did and the guy got fired eventually. Who knows how long it went on.

This is lessening to some extent, but I don't know how much.

Deadline reports Amazon has launched an investigation into claims that Jeffrey Tambor sexually harassed his former assistant. Van Barnes, a trans woman, recently wrote a private Facebook post in which, according to Deadline, she alluded to “inappropriate behavior” on the Transparent star’s behalf. That’s really all the press knows at this time, since the post isn’t available to the public. But Amazon, which was rocked by a sexual harassment scandal at its highest ranks earlier this year, tells the publication it is launching a complete investigation.

This is unexpected.

There is going to be a story in the NY Times about Louis CK. Apparently bad enough that he cancelled his movie premiere.

I'd heard something in the past about him whacking it in the past in front of females.

The allegation is that he likes to jerk off onto himself in front of women.

Last night, I spent over 4hrs on the phone w/many of the @jeremypiven victims. I still can’t sleep. Hey! Mr. Piven! 13 yrs old = RAPE. @CBS

some other random twitter user has come out and said Piven sexually assaulted her during the filming of Lucas in 1985. Sounds like that movie set was just a haven for predators.

Portia de Rossi (along with a slew of other actresses) are saying Steven Seagall harassed them. Hardly a surprise but I maybe this will keep him in Russia.

I reported the Louis CK thing on the board a year or two ago and no one flinched. This has been known for awhile now.

Can we just have Christopher Plummer play Frank Underwood while we are at it?

I keep waiting for the shoe to fall on Bryan Singer.

Unrelated, but I remember trying to watch one of Seagall's latest movies, and it amazed me in not only how fat he's gotten, but how lazy he now is. All the scenes where he was on the screen were of him sitting on a chair, pointing a gun out of a window, and everything else involving his character was clearly done with a double. I didn't think it was possible for someone to beat current day Bruce Willis* in the world of "eh, whatever I don't fuckin' care" roles in movies, but he managed to do just that.

*I have a feeling there might be some dirt on Bruce. I remember reading some story about him trying to shove his tongue down a porn star's throat without her consent, so I wouldn't be shocked if he's assaulted or harassed actress' on set.

well this gag from an episode of Louie is not funny anymore.

Reading the comment section for that article for some reason and it's mostly people saying "At least he didn't touch anyone". Good lord.

He’s been talked about a bunch in the media, he’s just not as famous as others.

he should be prosecuted for what he did is what I mean. There's a Scientology tie in so he's being protected by the church and their lawyers

And Netflix still hasn't fired him from "The Ranch"

Per a Jake Tapper tweet, HBO announced CK was off of their Autism benefit show in a week and they were removing all of his content from their On Demand Services.

I'm not really clamoring for being able to watch Lucky Louie whenever I want, but I am curious what effect this stance will have on networks if the snowball keeps rolling down hill outing people.

Same thing that happened with Bill Cosby, all of his material was virtually wiped out during the fever pitch of his scandal, guess what? Cosby Show is quietly back in syndication. Same with these acts, some will be “outraged” and their work will be erased until enough time passes that it’s right back where it was. 18 months from now, you can see Lucky Louie and probably even his new movie that turns out was basically a confession and message of defense.

Unsurprisingly, the release of CK's I Love You Daddy movie has been postponed indefinitely. It was supposed to come out the 17th in limited release before expanding later in the month for an awards run.

What Louie did was awful, but not as bad as the stuff everyone else has been accused of. He'll probably be back.
