Would you ever not watch a film because the main star is a dick irl? Top Gun was one of my...

Yes. I don’t watch new movies since 2017. When actors become political and Woke, I no longer watch. It spoils my enjoyment, and most of the rubbish that comes out these days is the Woke lecturing the rest of us.

If the acting is good I try not to know who they are irl. It’s almost never good. But then again your favorite server at your favorite restaurant is also probably a real jerk away from work, sooo… 🤷‍♂️

Yes! I do not like Ben Stiller, so I won’t watch any he’s in.
I agree with you on Tom Cruise, in the 80’s & 90’s yes, now no way.

Tom Cruise I actively avoid. Probably Mel Gibson also.

Yes, when I lose interest in an artist, I lose it in their work too.

There are a few that put me off, Ryan Reynolds and Rebel Wilson being two. Not that they are dicks necessarily though. They don't tend to be in films I would otherwise like though, anyway. I don't like Tom Cruise irl but I can put it aside enough to enjoy his films usually.

Generally they delay movies because it's a business. Everyone wants their business to enough profit as possible.

Also a movie involves 1000s people's job. It's kind of important for them.

I have no comments on Tom Cruise's behaviour.

No, I don't really care but I've lost interest in some music before for that reason. It must be something very bad though, like turning out to be a misogynic sadistic shit or something like that.

Top Gun was one of my favourite films as a kid

I would just watch that first one again.
The new one looks like the same thing, prolly made from shots not used on the first film.

I have zero interest in him or that movie. I wouldn't watch another Mission Impossible with him either.

I can't really stomach Mark Wahlberg movies because of his personality in real life.

SomeMichGuy · M

Yeah, I don't watch him in any more movies.

I personally don't know them, therefore I will not form a judgmental opinion based off of media portrayals

What if in real life, they take good care of their parents, yet the media makes them out to be ogres?
Are they good people? I don't know them, so truly don't know.

Yes, I refuse to watch anything with Ben Affleck or Mel Gibson.

I've hardly watched any tom cruise movies. That's pretty much the reason why.
