Foodles production company faced sentence today at Aylesbury Crown Court after previously pleading guilty to two counts of breaching its health and safety duties. A court had formerly been told that Ford could have been killed in the incident while filming at Pinewood Studios in London.

Such accidents are even more deadly for the elderly.

That sounds like "The Nathan Fielder Method" from The Rehearsal.

I mean no offense to any older actors when I say this, but...

At a certain point age becomes a liability if they fall over and break a hip while doing a scene. The frailness of their older bodies is a very real thing and complicates a movie shoot.

That doesn't mean Hollywood should shy away from hiring them, but it means I can understand why Hollywood is hesitant to.

Jamie Lee Curtis is 66, only ten years younger than my own mother, and my mother is so frail it scares me sometimes. Little things take so long to heal. She twisted her knee a small amount in the grass almost two weeks ago and its still a bit swollen.

Ageism is real, but so is elderly frailty and fragility.

Sin is as sin does.

and Devil Worship

also said “Hail Satan.”

Look, let's leave Satan out of this. He's got enough troubles already with his new relationship and all.


Seriously though we don't need to be enabling Satanic Panic bullshit with articles like these sensationalizing that aspect of these conversations. The push towards self-mutilation and suicide is the bigger issue here.

Vibe governing.

Fuck all the way off with this blatant self promotion blogspam!

Maybe if they'd done away with the bullshit Denuvo DRM people like me might have actually considered buying it.
