Critical Hits & Misses #327

You, Mr. Yates, are a ridiculous rape culture-y muggle that needs to STFU

• This is why Hollywood is getting wrecked by all these sexual harassment scandals: because assholes like Fantastic Beasts 2 director David Yates still say dumb shit like this in defense of wife beaters like Johnny Depp and think it's perfectly okay to say dumb shit like this. *cough* Alleged wife beater, I guess. 


• The Arrowverse is a little less skivvy these days, now that the WB has fired Executive Producer Andrew Kreisberg for gross behavior towards women, in order go foster a safer and happier work environment for cast and crew. Good call, WB. 

For today's musical hit, we have Pitbull and "Por Favor"

Today's critical rolls: Did you watch the Arrowverse Crossover this week? If so, what did you think? If not, are you planning on watching it?

• Normally I wouldn't bother to mention sexual harassment by politicians, because political sex scandals are like mass shootings in this US: same shit different day. Still Senator Al Franken isn't just another politician, he's also formerly a comedian and actor, which brings more light to some fuck-up rape culture in entertainment industries. Perhaps of greater note in this Mic story about Franken, though, is the statement that he has put out. Take note, scumbags of the Earth: this is how you actually do an apology correctly for this sort of thing. 


• Wondering what movies to see this holiday season? Newsday has you covered with the list of what to check out. 

For today's musical hit, and because Luis Fonsi wrecked at the Latin Grammy's, here's Fonsi and his smash hit, "Despacito"

Today's critical rolls: The weekend is here! What's it going to be? Justice League? Punisher? Both? Neither? Let us know!
