Good on him that he recognizes that his behavior was shitty and he’s remorseful. But, he brought it on himself.

Nah. It’s called personal responsibility for his behavior. And stop pretending like he’s sitting in jail somewhere.

It wasn’t just sleeping with film students of consenting age. Doing things like removing the modesty guard during sex scenes with women is an issue.

i am not denying some talent that he has, but I genuinely dislike him a whole lot and try to avoid anything he has his hands on.

I was watching “This is the End” a few weeks back and i concluded that Franco has gotta come back. He’s too funny to just be done.


Danny McBride steals the show in that movie. So damn funny

The same people who chastise these Consenting adults for having sex also support kids chopping off body parts

"Look at me, do I look like I need to abuse women to get sex?" has never been a good defense. For anything.

Franco pushed the limits of celebrity entitlement just when society hit it with a laser focus (and he got burned). He picked a bad time to be an intergenerational player. Why these guys who have the attractiveness and power to easily get with most women of an undeniably legal age, instead decide to go after jail bait, is beyond me. Seinfeld should be in his synagogue every day, giving thanks that he dated his high school girl before the world deemed that a capital social offense.

And they were consenting adults


That's not the whole story. The one that got him actually cancelled were the girls that were underage and revealed messages with Franco with him trying to get them to have sex with him.

Trying to have sex with a 17 year old and not doing it is pretty low on the things to get cancelled for and your boys and freaking brother ditching you because of it it pretty crappy too. Seeing a Rogen and Dave probably hooked up with an underage girl at some point too.

I can't image ditching my brother because he tried to hook up with a 17 year old.

He’s very clearly using Christianity as PR cover for the allegations. It’s crazy you’re willing to let him make such a joke out of your religion like that. He’s not even hiding how fake it is well

Well, there's telling actresses they have to remove the physical safeguards so that he can simulate going down on them on their bare kooches.

Where did I say it wasn't?

Would you drop one of your siblings or lifelong friends out of your life if they did that?

what's more is that no doubt Seth Rogen did this for one reason and one reason only, and that is to look super sensitive and male-feminist in the interest of...banging more chicks. equally creepy and pathetic.

If they had a pattern of doing so? Yes.
