STEADY LEAK: HARVEY WEINSTEIN MIGHT TAKE A SHIT ON ART

If it ain't broke... let's fix it, says Harvey.

Ah, it's been a while since a bit of news reminded me of how much I despise that no neck asshole. The hate feels like coming home.

Harvey you greedy fat fuck.  He should know better.  This movie's already made a lot of money and with Oscar noms (and wins) it'll only make more.  wtf

What a bellend. The swearing scenes are some of the strongest, and in one case most crucial. How do you show Bertie practising his final speech without the cuss-words? You can't.

This guy. This fucking guy. This fucking no class, miserable, greedy, rat bastard. I'm actually quite fucking angry right now. It hasn't happened to me in while with something I read on the internet. I FUCKING LOVE IT.

 

Piece of shit.

Devil's advocate: The MPAA could've cut Harvey's irritating little balls off by giving this the PG-13, much as the UK board has given it a 12A, due to the context in which the language is used.

Then he'd have a few tits thrown in to get the edgier R crowd.

We'll finally get to see Wallis Simpson's Shanghai skills that King Edward fell in love with!!!

 

Yeah, my first thought was why Weinstein couldn't use his bluster to convince the ratings board to make the film a PG-13.  He supposedly appealed to have Blue Valentine re-rated to an R because the NC-17 would hurt its business (seriously!?  though, I did get this from wikipedia).  The film is such a great case for obscene language being used intelligently.

One word

Fuck.  Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.  FUCK!

What the fuck? This guy is such a fraud, can't his company just wither and die already? Jesus christ. First he terrorizes fans of Asian cinema for decades on end, now he's fucking with already nominated Oscar contenders in order to squeeze every penny simply to save his inevitably doomed to failure hackster studio? 

 

 

If I was a film maker, actor or artist of any stripe, I'd take this as a firm signal that working with scissor hands is simply too big a risk to take from this point on. Even if the world loves your movie, it won't be safe from the Weinsteins. Better to shun them from the global film village and leave them to wander off and freeze in the snow, native American style. I've heard nothing but rumors of their impending doom for years now, surely it wouldn't take much of a boycott to finally break TWC's financial back?

I wonder if Hooper (or anyone involved with the film, really) have spoken about this at all.  I'd really love to hear what they have to say.

Fuck, fuck, fuck, bugger, shit, tits.

 

I don't even get the logic here. Admittedly the R rating makes no fucking sense whatsoever, but butchering the film to get the rating it deserves isn't exactly a capitol solution. I imagine most of the teens unable to purchase a ticket to this who actually fucking want to see it have probably already seen it with a parent or such-- we're not talking about a hard R, after all, and I don't know what reasonable adult would have doubts about taking their teenagers to this-- so I don't know who Harvey thinks he's going to pull in by attempting to chop The King's Speech up.

Teenagers are interested in stuffy British Oscar bait?

post #15 of 17

Naw.  It's for the parents who'll drag their teenagers into stuffy British Oscar bait!

post #16 of 17

I wonder is Peter Biskind has any plans on updating Down and Dirty pictures. A lot has happened to that fat bastard since 2003-2004.

Hey Weinstein, a PG-13 theatrical re-release of Grindhouse would pack 'em in!
