My feed has been filled with rpg geeks shitting on him. I do not know why. I assume he said something nasty, or did something worse than his usual disgusting foot fetish.
Why do I see Tarantino drama constantly? What triggered it?

Frankly, I loathe the professional unwillingness to criticize anyone else. Some people frankly suck at acting, and they shouldn’t have to be Wiseau bad before anyone says something.
Criticism is fine, when you’re talking about someone’s work and how to improve it. Calling someone “weak” and “the worst actor in the SAG” is deeply personal and insulting.
Revealing a personal bias in a professional setting belies unprofessional attitudes and prejudices. Tarantino isn’t a critic, he’s a filmmaker and an influential voice in the industry. Taking pot shots at a couple of B-list character actors is hurtful on a personal level, and wantonly destructive on a professional level. The power dynamic between producers and actors is massively unbalanced. It would be like the CEO where you work talking shit on LinkedIn about project managers at a rival company. If he’s saying this publicly, what is he saying behind the scenes? Is he trashing actors to casting directors to influence their careers?
He has every right to say “I don’t want these people in my movies.” It would also be professional to say “I did not like this specific performance for these specific reasons.” It’s extremely unprofessional to say “I hate these people because of who they are and anyone working with them is on my shit-list.”
Why? This feels more like an unexamined emotional need than a practical one.
Well Jerkface, because I have grown to dislike the constant corporate euphemism born of utter terror of controversy.
If Tarantino is the exemplar of what you want from your media figures, fuck that shit. Anyway, you act like there are not reasons people act with professionalism and courtesy for their colleagues. Slagging each other in the press is not in their best interests and I again wonder why that would appeal to you.
He’s not, don’t put words in my mouth please. If you don’t understand why speaking in something other than bland corpospeak might be appealing, I don’t kn̈ow what to tell you.
On the other hand, we have assholes like Elon
I am of the opinion there’s a happy medium between tweets sent by the HR department and Elon’s white supremacy XD
Agreed. I’m not a fan of Will Ferrel’s acting, but I have nothing against him as a person. Would it be so wrong for me to say I do not enjoy his movies or his comedy, but I’d be willing to speak to the man and maybe enjoy a chat over coffee or something? He’s probably a decent person. Maybe he’s not. If I met him, I’d only treat him with respect until he taught me otherwise. Still don’t care for his movies.
Same with Adam Sandler, but I’ve seen him actually act. Reign Over Me was the first one I saw him act well in. “Men, Women & Children” is another one.
