The Weinstein Company and Miramax -- the studio the Weinstein brothers founded and then sold -- announced a gigantic partnership deal on Thursday (via The Hollywood Reporter), agreeing to create sequels of the smash hit films that the Weinsteins produced for the studio before starting their new production company.
A number of big films are set to see second installments added to their canon: 'Shakespeare In Love,' 'Bad Santa,' 'Swingers,' 'Rounders,' 'Bridget Jones's Diary,' are some of the most famous names to be in line for the part two treatment.

Just finished Peter Biskind's Down and Dirty Pictures: Miramax, Sundance, and the Rise of Independent Film. (Awful title.) Was actually published only a couple of months before the event that started this thread--he gives no indication that that's around the corner. Anyway, as someone who's mostly ignorant about the business end of things, I now know more about these people than I ever wanted to know, and I'm amazed a single movie ever gets made.

Lisa Bloom, one of Weinstein’s attorneys who specializes in sexual harassment cases, adds that she has been advising him on “gender and power dynamics” for the past year, calling him “an old dinosaur learning new ways.” She adds that she’s “explained to him that due to the power difference between a major studio head like him and most others in the industry, whatever his motives, some of his words and behaviors can be perceived as inappropriate, even intimidating.”

I don't know WTF is up with Mcgowan but her brain appeared to break after Weinstein and she got hypercritical of #metoo accusers despite being one herself.
― I? not I! He! He! HIM! (akm), Wednesday, 20 September 2023 16:33 (seven months ago) link
my suspicion is she felt betrayed by those in Hollywood who were dismissing her and not believing her, writing her off as crazy, the media trying to dig up dirt on her before the dam broke on HW, and it kinda fucked her up. why she is now saying things about other accusers is weird though. she's just doing the same thing others did to her.
― omar little, Wednesday, 20 September 2023 16:45 (seven months ago) link
My guess as well. During the height of the pandemic she was lashing out at a lot of people for different reasons, but it was all unhinged nonsense. She's really in need of help and I hope she gets it and it works, but otherwise it's probably best to ignore her.

Ormond says that, in the aftermath, she informed her agents, Bryan Lourd and Kevin Huvane (who now serve as co-chairmen of CAA), about what had happened; she says the pair “cautioned her from speaking out and did not protect her.”
Ormond is suing CAA for negligence and breach of fiduciary conduct, and the formerly Weinstein-run Miramax (and its owners at Disney) for negligent supervision, with her lawyers writing in the suit that “The men at CAA who represented Ormond knew about Weinstein. So too did Weinstein’s employers at Miramax and Disney. Brazenly, none of these prominent companies warned Ormond that Weinstein had a history of assaulting women because he was too important, too powerful, and made them too much money.”

Crazy Days and Nights’ Gossip Blogger Unmasked—by Furious Ex-Mistresshttps://archive.ph/2024.02.07-174114/https://www.thedailybeast.com/crazy-days-and-nights-blogger-unmasked-as-john-nelsonby-ex-mistress-cassandra-crose
The anonymous author of the notorious Hollywood gossip blog Crazy Days and Nights inadvertently revealed his identity to a Florida court last year in the fallout of a messy extramarital affair that wouldn’t be out of place in one of his website’s famed “blind items.”Crazy Days and Nights (often abbreviated as CDaN) is infamous for publishing sensational and inflammatory claims about unnamed celebrities with little regard for accuracy. In fact, the blog admits in a disclaimer that some material might be “products of the author’s imagination” and last year settled a defamation lawsuit with Diana Jenkins of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.But some items have their footing in reality. CDaN’s lead blogger, who uses the pseudonym “Enty Lawyer,” has been credited with beating major publications to the punch on several major stories—including Harvey Weinstein’s predations—and developed a certain mystique among the mainstream media, QAnon-style conspiracy theorists, and ordinary celeb-watchers.Though a handful of profiles about Enty Lawyer have been published, they were written under agreements to keep his identity secret. But The Daily Beast has confirmed that the dirt-slinger behind Crazy Days and Nights is licensed California attorney John Robert Nelson, who in 2018 ran unsuccessfully for Congress as a progressive Democrat. It’s unclear whether he currently practices law or ever practiced entertainment law as his moniker suggests.Nelson’s secret life came to light because of an affair he had with a Florida woman that has spawned dueling legal complaints and accusations of abusive behavior.

In 2003, Peck, 43 at the time, was arrested on 11 charges — including sodomy, lewd act upon a child 14 or 15 by a person 10 years older, and oral copulation by anesthesia or controlled substance — but the minor was not named until now.“My name is Drake Bell and I came here today to tell my story,” Bell says during the documentary’s third episode, before detailing his close relationship with Peck, whom he met at the beginning of Season 2 of “The Amanda Show.”At first, Bell’s father was his manager and became uncomfortable about how much time Peck was spending time with his son, so much so that he went to production and told them. “I go, ‘I don’t see anything abnormal but it just doesn’t — I don’t have a good feeling,'” he said. At the time, Joe Bell claims production told him that Peck is gay and said, “Maybe you’re just homophobic and you just don’t understand that he’s a touchy-feely guy.”

Really feels like another shoe has been about to drop on Schneider for 10 years. Every time something comes out its always like he *massages* or he *yells* or he *makes suggestive content* but never seems to get up to any of the Bryan Singer-type stuff that could get tried in a court of law. Either theres some insane shit being held back or he was just a master at approaching the line between "creep" and "criminal" but never crossing it.
