Blind Item #9

Interesting. Apparently this tabloid Goliath took some orders from their parent company to help throw a movie under a bus. A little revenge against a producer. This is going to end up costing the parent company and its tabloid a ton of money.

TMZ and the a dog's purpose video?? Is TMZ considered a tabloid? their parent company is timewarner

TMZ; A Dog's Purpose?

Because that alleged "abuse" video was proven fake, I believe. Pretty stupid thing to do.
A Dog's Purpose isn't associated with Time Warner, owner of TMZ. However, it's distributed by Universal(NBCUniversal, yada yada), which is owned by Comcast, which also owns E!. Another connection is that Dreamworks, also owned by Comcast was co-founded by Spielberg, whose Amblin Entertainment is listed as first production company of A Dog's Purpose.
Sorry if it took me so long to type this that 30 people already said it. It looks like a lot of people really don't like this movie.

How was the video fake? That short clip showed the dog not wanting any part of the whirlpool action taking place and later going under a couple of time, the team had to step in to pull him out. This didn't happen? I think people assume, and perhaps in error, that other abuses behind the scenes took place. Furthermore if the video is fake, it opens the door for litigation should this movie bomb.

Frankly, I've never seen it, only saw the tabloid headlines then & now. That's what they're saying yesterday & today.

Wild guess here
TMZ WB live by night cost WB 75 million but they used it to force Ben Affleck down as director of Batman and humiliate him and possibly fire him as Batman and control him more

information desk said...

He is producing everything he does
Producer could be just to keep it vague

RenShaw said...

So what's up with Ben and the higher ups. What did he do.

RenShaw said...

The exec complain the video was edited to make things look worse. The events even if edited were not manipulated. Two events that got people all riled up is the dog trying to claw his way out when they trainer wanted him in the water, then going under. A better way was to get a water loving crazy pup. There are plenty of them. It's not a long clip but judge for yourself. Seems like a good movie for kids though.

Yep, and I bet it's due to this article - http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/gavin-polone-sorry-hollywood-i-916595

written by Gavin Polone, producer who voted and advocated third party.

Disgusted by the payback meted out to Susan Sarandon and co, people who have consistently put their money where their mouth is and whose political activism is virtually unrivalled for Trump being voted in. How about blaming Clinton and her 'celebrity army' for being maybe an eighth of an inch better instead of a genuine alternative? How about blaming the celebrity army for doing what's popular and easy, instead of right?

And I give no shits about her email server, whether she was asleep during Benghazi or whether she smiles enough. I care that she is a war hawk whose has no compunction completely destabilizing peaceful regimes to access resources to which the USA has absolutely no right. I care that she has supported and abetted a sexual harasser and possible rapist. I'll always have total distrust and dislike for those who talk left and tack right, it's worse than being openly fascist.

Erin, you put it perfectly.

Being openly Facsist is out of fashion.
Until it gets back into fashion.
Mark my words.

marlo said...

Melt Erin, melt! LMAO

Snowflakes NOT GIVING A SHIT about an american ambassador having this throat slit?

We know. You cockroaches also don't give a shit about:

female genital mutilation
little girls being married off to old dudes: LEGAL pedophilia
gays being thrown of rooftops
women being denied basic rights in over 15 countries
pedo-worship
the persecution an ethnic cleansing of Christians, Kurds, Yazidis, etc
gassing of human beings (like Hitler did, Muslims doing it today)
beheadings of human beings
burning alive of human beings
and many more vile inhumane practises connected to the religion of pieces....

you only care about virtue signalling: and that's EXACTLY why you lost

and I have news for you: the more you inbreds foam at your mouths, like your beloved muloids, the more chances for Trump 2020

so keep melting....some of us actually enjoy this circus :)

p.s.: haven't seen this much retardation from liberals, since republicans abolished slavery

marlo said...

Oh yeah, I forgot my absolutely favourite: standing shoulder to shoulder with those who chant 'Death to America' and burning american flags together: shows how clever you lot are and why more and more ppl turn they backs on you: instead of threatening to fuck off to Canada (of all countries) you should all be dropped in Iran, Pakistan or Gaza, to be with your beloved friends, who will rape & lynch you in 1 second

information desk said...

Wb is tired of Ben being an addict and a hot embarrassing mess pushing back filming bc he can't get his shite together as soon as lbn tanked Monday morning he stepped down directing Batman solo aka fired
WB is close to just running him out of the studio
