Guess who is going to come out as gay: Dr Strange. Ha ha.

Hollywood moves their productions out California strictly for cheaper production costs. Ridley Scott’s a-list movie about the Black Dahlia murder case still had its violent, homosexual subculture, perverse story to tell.

Most of them should definitely shut up and act. But I’m not going to hate on Benedict if he actually follows through on this pay thing. We are the ones who have been saying they should put their money where their mouth is. Well, it looks like one of them is finally going to try it. If he does this, it might set an example for the rest of them.

I know a guy who worked backstage at a burlesque house for $50 a week. It would’ve been higher but that’s all he could afford to pay.

I would hope we are past pay differentials resulting from gender. Maybe not.

As they say, Ginger Rogers had to match Fred Astaire while dancing backwards and wearing high heels.

But he isn’t putting HIS money where his mouth is, he is demanding that the owners of various products put their money where his mouth is...hardly the same thing.

I am saying that you should hate this person you are free to like whomever you please. I don’t find him to be much of a hero, just a publicity hog much on the order of David Hogg.

If he ends up taking a pay cut so that the production company can meet his demands and still stay within budget, yes, he’ll have put some money in. But my larger message is that we don’t want to develop Liberal Derangement Syndrome ourselves. You know how liberals hate Trump even when he does something they should presumably like? I don’t want to be that way.

IF and it is a big “IF” he takes a pay cut, but something tells me he means this as much as he meant to take in refugees and lead by example.

Once again, I do NOT hate this person and I have never suffered from LDS. However, if I were choosing someone to admire he would be last on my list.

Why do actors get paid more than cameramen? That is not fair.

He was good in “Black Mass” and in the several episodes of “Sherlock” that I’ve seen but this announcement certainly won’t endear him to me.

Earth to Benedict: If you think this buys you good will from the constantly enraged feminazi hags, guess again. They will still bully you and complain about you. They will still always find a reason to be enraged about the fact that you’re a white male, and that most problems in the world are caused by white males.

Dumb@ss.....

Oh, I agree. Making heroes of celebrities is asking for disillusionment. All I said was “good for him.” I’m not starting a fan club.

Good point. Everyone in the cast and crew should be paid the same.

I think Khan was supposed to have more of a natural tan.

This dude was caught on camera or phone using the term “faggot” or similar and had to do a lot of spineless, craven, hat in hand backpedaling.

This was a year or 2 ago.

They’re all overpaid anyway. Ridiculous how someone can be paid so much to pretend to be someone they’re not. Crazy.
