I now hate "Bull Durham"

[obamanut2012]

One of my most favorite sports movies of all time. Sarandon has ruined it for me.

As well as Thelma & Louise and Rocky Horror. But especially Bull Durham.

So, as well as all the horrible political things she has said and done, she's also ruined some of my nice memories.

Fuck her.

[dhol82]

1. Well, maybe not Rocky Horror

After all, that was from before she got political.

[obamanut2012]

7. Like with Trump, I cannot stand hearing her voice anymore

[Rorey]

27. Isn't that also her voice on Tylenol commercials?

It grates on my nerves every time I hear it.

[Control-Z]

31. I was about to say the very same thing.

Her voice alone pisses me off. Now I don't know that it would prevent me from buying Tylenol. I have wondered about that, though. Lol. I really can't stand her. I buy generics most of the time anyway and usually only ibuprofen.

[obamanut2012]

42. Yes!

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

37. Will never stop loving Rocky Horror!!

[underpants]

2. Haven't t seen it in. While but it's still the best sports movie I've seen

The cursing in it literally makes the movie.

[VMA131Marine]

26. Bull Durham is good ....

Major League is better....

"Bartender, Jobu needs a refill....."

[melm00se]

44. Ahh, Jesus,

?t=37s

[yardwork]

3. I was just thinking the same thing.

[obamanut2012]

9. I have several friends from GSO who are extras in it

[Codeine]

4. I try not to let the stupidity of celebrities

impact my ability to enjoy their work. I just try to remember that these people are usually not very bright and are good at one thing; acting. They're trained seals performing for my pleasure. I honestly expect most of them have entirely idiotic ideas about basically everything.

[FSogol]

43. +1 Exactly. n/t

[WhiteTara]

5. I'm having trouble with Ray Donovan

one of my favs and now she's in it. Aaaargh!

[obamanut2012]

10. I KNOW!

[ProudLib72]

6. There is some animated movie on Netflix I wanted to watch

But one of the voices was done by Sarandon, so I skipped it.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

8. I don't care - I try not to let my personal feelings about an actor

affect how much I like their work. I love all three movies and I think Sarandon is an idiot, but I don't think those two positions are really in conflict. I love The Year of Living Dangerously, Gallipoli and all of the Mad Max movies, and I think Mel Gibson is a lunatic. Richard Wagner was a terrible person and I love Parsifal. Caravaggio was a violent murderer and one of the great artists of his time. The Renaissance composer Gesualdo murdered his wife and was mad as a box of frogs and I love his music. Knowing the artists were bad in some way doesn't lessen my appreciation of their art.

Bill Cosby was funny as a stand-up comic but I thought the sitcom was stupid, so I don't have to think about that at all.

[obamanut2012]

11. I cannlt do it when they pass a certain line

Sarandon, Tom Cruise, Johnny Depp..... cannot do it.

[Puzzledtraveller]

32. this

[Ferrets are Cool]

12. I know it may be childish, but I am with you. There are several movies that I will not watch because

of the actors/actresses policy stances.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

13. So here's the way I look at it:

I liked Sarandon's movies before I knew she was a nutball politically. If I had never found that out, I would still like the movies. But the movies haven't changed at all since I learned that Sarandon is a loon. So why should I stop liking them now that I know?

[TDale313]

36. My feelings as well. n/t

[lunamagica]

14. Thankfully, I was never a fan. I don't think I've ever paid to see a movie with her

I only saw some of her movies while channel surfing. The one I liked was one where Tommy Lee Jones starred as a prosecutor (sorry, I can't remember the name of it) but that is because I'm a Huge TLJ fan.

So I won't miss much by not seeing a movie starring her ever again...she is vomit-inducing to me, so it's not worth the effort

[Control-Z]

33. I think that is the one movie I liked too.

Was it about 2 little boys witnessing a suicide in the woods?

[lunamagica]

39. Yes, that's the one! Tommy Lee Jones was great in it.

[Control-Z]

40. I used to have it recorded.

Watched it more than once. Good movie!

[UTUSN]

15. Rec for the feeling, but artsy types are aholes as often as not

It's for us not to confuse the image or performance with them

[UTUSN]

19. Addendum: fuck her

[jrthin]

16. Me too. I will not watch anything with her in it; not even an interview.

[jalan48]

17. I felt the same way when Sonny and Cher supported Nixon and Agnew in 1972.

I was shocked that anyone could support Tricky Dick.

[oberliner]

18. That's kinda silly

It's a great movie and she is a good actress regardless of her politics.

[The_jackalope]

20. Not me.

My parents taught me how to distinguish between politics and the movies.

[Snotcicles]

22. +1 nt

[Raine]

25. Yes exactly

I'm not losing anything more due to politics ... that's letting them win.

[Archae]

21. I love the acting of James Woods.

I detest him as a person.

Likewise for John Wayne, Elvis Presley, and Joan Crawford.

[treestar]

23. Stupid of most of them

to publicize it. Unless they are so good they become the other person and can make you forget them.

[milestogo]

24. I hate anything with Tom Selleck, Clint Eastwood, or Gary Sinise, for starters...

Also Leslie Nielsen, Robert Duvall, Bruce Willis, and Andy Garcia.

[ClarendonDem]

28. Is this sarcasm?

Cause you eliminate lots of great movies based on political views.

[milestogo]

29. No.

[ClarendonDem]

30. Ok

And fair enough

[Jim Lane]

41. Would you add the TV shows with Kelsey Grammer?

Also, you list people whose political views happen to have come to your attention. Do you actively vet each actor in a production before watching it? If you don't, you could unwittingly be watching someone with whom you disagree about something.

For my part, I'm with the people in this thread for whom this is just a non-factor.

[boston bean]

34. I wont watch anything with her in it either.

[Gothmog]

35. I refused to watch the feud miniseries because Sarandon was in it

[Dreamer Tatum]

38. As an adult, I can separate politics from everything else. nt
