Hollywood is so stupid. Go on a drunken mildly anti Semitic rant and get blackballed forever. But frick a kid and you’ll have people coming out of the woodworks to defend you.

Why do you think it’s that way in Hollywood?

You aren’t wrong.

Sounds a lot like politics.

If someone is on your side of the spectrum, believe nothing bad.
If someone is on the opposite side, believe everything bad.

To be fair, molested kids don't run Hollywood.

What's actually worse is Hollywood never forgave him for The Passion of the Christ.

In a rare move of politics and ideology, Hollywood passed on Passion refusing to fund it and they realized what a collosal stupid fricking mistake it was.

Hollywood is better when it's just about the money...when they cared just about the money they made better movies instead of trying to make political statements in movies and worrying about messages.

Old Hollywood would have funded Passion just like they did Ben-Hur because they knew it would make a frick-ton of money.

But Gibson got rejected and then gave them the middle finger as he rode off with a King's ransom in profits and it pissed them off something awful.

That was the first time you saw Hollywood be really Clanish (like every studio came together and blackballed the picture) and making Jewish identity politics a bigger priority over profit.
