Good on him. These same people talking about women's rights and #MeToo, when they knew what Weinstein was doing the whole time and ignored it. And these same people still praise Roman Polanski, even though he fled the country over a decade ago to avoid being arrested for raping a 13 year old.
Hollywood's phony. But I guess when you make a career from acting, it's easy to act like you care.
You remember wrong. He looked like he wasn't enjoying the show in multiple reaction shots but there was no reaction shot of him following that joke and he looked disapproving before the joke was made.
Which, yeah makes sense. It was an edgy set. His famous reaction face was after Gervais told the actors to not make a big speech when they get the award and then fuck off the stage. Gervais also made a joke about Judi Dench lifting her own leg and eating her pussy but getting a furball because she's old school. Everyone makes out like he did this whole speaking truth to power thing but he made one reference to Epstien. And all the reaction shots showed people laughing at that, they felt safe from that one. Didn't cut them at all.
It was bread and circuses for us the peasants. Call me when he gets up on that stage and doesn't make any jokes but just reads the list of names who were on the lolita express on live television.

I believe it was a either a Weinstein or Epstein joke. He said “I know he’s your friend, I don’t care.”
