Quentin Tarantino has apologized to Samantha Geimer after suggesting that she wanted to have sex with Roman Polanski when she was 13.

Facing an online backlash, Tarantino has changed his position and called his remarks “cavalier.”

“Fifteen years later, I realize how wrong I was,” Tarantino said. “Ms. Geimer WAS raped by Roman Polanski.”

Quentin Tarantino is and always has been a Huge A-Hole.

I will truly savory the fall of this creepy pedophilic foot fetish weirdo.

One of “the brightest men in Hollywood” took 15 years to figure out that drugged sex with a 13-year-old constituted rape? Guy’s a genius.

Tarantino <— putz

O really.

Because if you don’t expose them to such, or thoroughly neglect your 13 year old daughters, they don’t end up in a multimillion dollar estate on Mullholland with a shrimpy perv famous director drugging your daughter with quaaludes and champagne, then raping every orifice in her body. Most 13 year old girls would not choose that as an afternoon activity.

[Mr. K]

OK... he said something stupid and apologized for it.

very rare.

[Larry Lucido]

Not just rape, but rape rape.

Thanks nickcarraway. His next project's working title? "Kill Career".

“Fifteen years later, I realize how wrong I was,”

“Fifteen years later, my career may be in jeopardy so I am forced to say this.”

“Fifteen years later, I realize how wrong I was,” Tarantino said. “Ms. Geimer WAS raped by Roman Polanski.”

Can't be. WhoopieG said it wasn't rape rape.

[miss marmelstein]

While we’re at it, now apologize for your performance on B’way in Wait Until Dark.

[AppyPappy]

“Quentin Tarantino is and always has been a Huge A-Hole.”

You are being way too kind.

[nickcarraway]

Hmmm. Well you voluntarily saw it. I avoided it.

[Pollster1]

She was drugged and still able to resist and say “no”. It’s hard to ask more than that of a little girl facing a powerful predator. Anyone smarter than Whoopi Goldberg could figure that out. It was “rape-rape”.

[miss marmelstein]

You probably didn’t even know he did it.

[a fool in paradise]

When will Her-lyWood go after WhooptiDo (and Disney-ABC) for saying pretty much what Q-T said?

[ontap]

What a phoney bastard!!!
