Morgan Freeman and John Travolta are apparently in town (Savannah, GA) filming a movie. 2 days ago, a buddy at the desk next to me bumped into Travolta at the little hole-in-the-wall Chinese place across the street. My work place is on the outskirts of town so the density of humans is pretty low, making it all the more unusual to bump into a <gushy voice> a famous movie star.

So now we're keeping our eyes open for Morgan. Maybe he doesn't like Chinese?

When I meet him, I'll watch closely for inappropriate behavior.

I am sure he's being inappropriate 24/7. He'll probably rape someone in front of you.

How does Danny Hart sit down with balls that big?

Yes. That was my thought too.

I'd be more interested in seeing Travolta doing some weird scientology bullshit. That being said, I have no idea what that would be :)

What are they, a coupon? Do I get a free drink?

No, Freeman should not be banned from ever working again. You don't get to grope women but there has to be some retribution between laughing and destroying someone's life for the kinds of things he is accused of doing. I don't know what that answer is, but we are getting to the point where the only punishment we have available is hanging.

I'm beginning to think that we are much more fucked than I thought.

Well, another question is should he be banned for some undefined period? I agree it's too bad we don't have much of a range of punishment options in these cases. My opinion is that the humiliation of these revelations might be punishment enough, but I can see how others might argue that's just too light.

From a practical standpoint, for someone like an entertainer who would do the banning? Don't they basically work whenever someone hires them for something and they take the job?

Is there an organization that can ban an actor from working?

It definitely isn't easy. And I don't claim to know the answer. Life is easier when you just don't do it. I don't have a lot of sympathy for people who mistreat others like this, but complete financial reason for something like what is being alleged seems out of whack.

Harvey is a much easier case. Fuck his life up.

For Morgan, old time instant Matt Dillon justice might be the best answer. Punch him in the nose. Wait no, Matt would just shoot him.

If I'm a creep at work, which isn't a crime, and i lose my job. There's nothing stopping me from getting another job in the same line of work or something similar. I don't think there is any mechanism to ban me from working in my area of experience.

Can the screen actors guild(SAG) pull his credentials? I believe most movies are union shops and if the union pulled his card he would effectively be banned.

Well, you could be blacklisted. These #meetoo entertainers are getting blacklisted in a sense too. It's a combination of all employers knowing which entertainers have been outed as harassers, and feminist organizations poised (or feared to be poised) to go after any project involving the marked men.

I wondered about that? It wouldn't be so much the employer but the union.

I don't work as a PT but I could certainly lose my license if I did something that came to the attention of the board and was bad enough.
