I don't like this witch-hunt shyt, many hack actors did the same thing but fucking media just cover up certain top celebrities. Franco is pure great in Disaster Artist, probably the best achievement in his carrer and he deserves recognition for it. No way he's getting snubbed just because of this Black campaign! What happened with Casey affleck's case, They never talked about that again! Considering that HBO and all three universities that James Franco taught at reported no sexual harassment incidents, I would say, yeah, his case appears to be a witch hunt. I'm not saying he didn't act inappropriately towards some women but he's no Harvey. People have already dug up messages where Twitter girl A has stated that she likes to ruin people lies and Twitter girl B has gone on record stating oh, she still loves James. LMAO. Huh?

Mientras aca se discute sobre acoso sexual y caza de brujas, el se puede estar ríendo y haciendo en este Momento El Artista del Desastre parte 2.

Scarlett Johansson under fire for eviscerating James Franco at the LA Women's March after DEFENDING Woody Allen and starring in THREE of his films Scarlett Johansson is being called a hypocrite over her speech on Saturday She blasted James Franco in a speech at the 2018 Women's March in LA 'I want my pin back, by the way' said Johansson of Franco's 'Time's Up' pin Yet in 2014 she called child abuse claims against Woody Allen 'all guesswork' Once said of the director 'I'd sew the hems of his pants if he asked me to' Johansson has never appeared in a film with Franco, who denies the accusationswww.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5294743/Scarlett-Johanssons-defense-Woody-Allen-haunts-speech.html

What a hilarious controversy. Love how the third tweet says "innocent until proven guilty" and then bashes her for working with Woody.

Yeah, very hypocritical of Johansson. This is a huge issue that allows people to attack the movement. Then again, as Viced has already pointed out, there’s also hypocrisy of some people on the side that’s attacking her.

Scarlett Johansson said it would be ridiculous to make any assumption one way or the other regarding the Woody Allen situation. I agreed with that statement. So then she should apply that same concept to James Franco. Unless she's privvy to some evidence or information that we aren't aware of, she can shut the fuck up too right along with all of these Hollywood hypocrites who are self-righteous in public when it suits them.

James Franco's case strikes me as a witch hunt. He may be an asshole, but I don't see any of the accusations as sexual harassment and/or assault.
Scarlett Johansson is a hypocrite. Her pin? Like she's the grand chairman of the movement? Her speech almost made it seem like she just wants attention. Pity, because I had always liked her.
Natalie Portman is a complete dumb ass. She "believes" Dylan but doesn't really expand on why she does. Let's not forget that she signed that Roman Polanski petition way back when. Apparently she is for pardoning convicted rapists but condemns people who are yet to be proved guilty based on one accusation. And all-male director nominees? I suppose del Toro should identify himself as a genderblender so Hollyweird will be happy and pat itself on the back for being so progressive and giving the win to an LGBTQ.
It's almost like Harvey Weinstein being a rapist has given people free license to say the dumbest possible things as long as they sound progressive because nobody's got the guts to call them out on it.

I do agree it's somewhat hypocritical for Scarlett Johansson to say what she did in light of her relationship with Allen, but one difference is that there is exactly one allegation against Allen, whereas there's been all kinds of allegations against Franco (some serious, some not so much). I think it's pretty clear that Franco has done inappropriate things in the past, even if some of the allegations are exaggerated, whereas with Allen it's just one allegation so it's plausible that it could be fabricated.

Oh honey, but what if he's innocent? It could be a smear campaign by another potential nominee... Surely, it should be about his performance (and I don't mean in bed).

Well at least Franco seems like one of those guys who probably doesn't give a shit about the awards.

Who knows how this could pan out even under worst case scenarios? Oh honey, it's within the realm of possibility... Another of the theories doing the rounds is that it is all part of his campaign: Imagine this: he dresses up as this women (below) and takes her out for a drink, invites her back to his apartment to show her some of his paintings which leads her to think that he might be gay and then when she's relaxed enough and not expecting it, he makes his move and sexually exploits her. Shaken and distraught she flees and then she gets on #metoo and denounces him and suddenly he's engulfed in publicity. You see, it's really not as insane as it sounds...

Can we at least cancel the Frankie character? I like Franco as Vincent, but I can't stand Frankie.

James Franco has settled the lawsuit against him from the women who accused him of using his "film and acting school" as a cover to sexually exploit them. Terms of the settlement are undisclosed.
Wonder if he'll take this as a cue to make his "comeback"?
