'I knew enough to do more than I did'

Not only this, but these hollyweird butt lickers will all be told how "brave and courageous" they are coming out now and saying how they "knew something was going on but they didn't tell anyone, and they are ashamed of themselves". Hypocrisy at its finest.

Another question..as some of these "brave" people come forward, more are saying that this culture is pervasive in Hollywood, who else among the powerful have engaged in the same predatory fashion? I'd bet that Weinstein is not alone in these activities. It will be interesting if these women, and men, come forward and name names.

So, isn't that how you wish Joe had been treated? Don't you wish that, while lamenting that Joe was not able to be the cop and the prosecutor and the jailer, people understood that he did the right thing by passing it up the line?

Seems like you would like it better if Quentin T was vilified and hounded out of the industry.

So many other actresses and actors have mentioned other producers, directors, etc. and have not named them. They will continue to get away with it just like Harvey Weinstein. The lesson they will learn is to only do it 'a little' and not get too outrageous so they don't get caught. Heck, I was stunned by Terry Crews, Jamie Lee Curtis, Molly Ringwald, Scarlett Johanson, and bunch of others refusing to name their assaulters.

The crazy thing is Tarantino dated Mira Sorvino after she was propositioned/ruined by Weinstein. Given how close QT was with HW, isn’t that sort of insane? And McGowan worked on a Weinstein produced Tarantino film at least a decade after she settled with Weinstein.

It’s obvious HW’s activities were at least more than rumor to some people. Could the same be said for Jerry?

No one in Hollywood needs any scapegoat here, so no one is going to get thrown under the bus.

I don't think that is what he is saying at all. He's just pointing out the hypocrisy. There is no proof that Joe knew, yet he was savaged by people, and his words were taken totally out of context.

These people knew about Weinstein and are, basically, getting a pass.

Thanks...didn't see the Tarantino comments posted anywhere... what really pisses me off Joe gets crushed by the media and many leaders for only reporting it to his superiors yet many in Hollywood are now coming forward saying yeah I knew about it and did nothing yet the press is barely reporting on it... disgusting in reality

Tarantino dated one of Weinstein's victims (Mira Sorvino) after her 'encounter' with Weinstein. Tarantino was really close with Weinstein - that sort of complicates things, you know? Same for McGowan who settled with Weinstein then worked in a movie he produced for Tarantino. Sorvino certainly relayed her discomfort with Weinstein, right? And McGowan told Tarantino she settled with him. What is his obligation? Certainly, Joe did exactly the right thing with the limited and probably embellished information he received - does Tarantino call The Hollywood Reporter? The cops? He could have said nothing - same with Seth MacFarlane, Courtney Love, Kevin Smith - if everyone knew, everyone failed because of Harvey's power and influence, which I can assure you dwarfed Joe's.

I am looking at Tarantino's quotes... where he says looking back on it now he wishes he had done more. That he should have not downplayed it. Gone forward to authorities with this information. Joe said the almost exact same thing yet was crucified. Hardly a whimper from press and tv talking heads. Back page news for many media outlets.... Why do so many in Hollywood who now admit they knew get a free pass for doing nothing? Joe didn't get any kind of pass yet he reports it to his superiors. The double standard by the media to fit their narrative is another reason why I despise the media.

Tarantino is total scum. What kind of man knows that another man is assaulting women but does nothing? He should have at least told the police. A real man would have punched Weinstein in the mouth. Apparently hundreds of men in Hollywood were just like Tarantino. They knew for sure that Weinstein was assaulting women but put their personal wealth above the well being of the women. The men in Hollywood flit around in tuxes patting each other on the back but in reality they are immoral cowardly scumbags.

Not to start a flame war or anything, just adding perspective but I think the difference between Joe's "wish I had done more" and the actors "wish I had done more" is that none of Weinsteins victims were children. All the article's I have read about Weinstein have been victims in their early 20's.

I don't agree with the actors, just giving perspective on perhaps the difference in circumstances and public outrage.

It's too difficult to make this a symmetrical comparison; we mostly know what Joe was told and when and what he did - he was also thrown under the bus by his employer and he's a far cry from someone like Weinstein or Tarantino (or anyone in Hollywood really - female producers have been outed as telling women they're too fat or not attractive enough for roles) who are skeevy Hollywood types. These guys are getting a pass for the same reason MM gets a pass even though he was the guy who supposedly witnessed the event - they're just not a big story to them.

I agree... not looking for a war just pisses me off some get a pass and others don't. Hell now they are saying they knew some women were raped by Weinstein (Italian model) and these Hollywood hunks and "men" knew about women being raped and sexually assaulted and being hailed as brave for coming forward years later only after that fact has been made public. I just don't get the double standard by the media. It just gives everyone that much less faith in the press and media not there was much anything left at this point anyway, that's all.

Yeah I know it's not necessarily apples to apples. To me rape is rape whether its a young teenage boy to a grandmother in a nursing home and anyone in between. If you were told about it and a individual committing all these other advances including being told by your girlfriend and don't go to police but yet somehow get a pass from the press... very little faith in the press and media to report anything remotely unbiased anymore

I believe some have accused him of pulling stunts with underage girls. Reese Witherspoon is one, back when she was 16.

Let's be crystal clear... when he says he knew enough to do more, he implies he actually did something.

QT's gf was being hounded by HIS FRIEND, the Goblin. QT knew and he did nothing at all.

So when he implies he did something, he's FOS. He gets no brownie points (which is what he's hoping for). He did NOTHING.

Pure scum.

We know he's not because Cory Feldman knows first hand who one of the pervs that likes little boys is and wont say.
Also who was the lunatic that copped a feel of Terry Crew's junk in front of his wife? I mean you have to be some kind of stupid to
try that. Not only could Crew's beat the ever loving snot out of him but my guess is his wife could as well.
I have a feeling that the pedo and rape ring in tinsel town is quite large and very powerful.

I am waiting for the tv trucks to be camped outside of weinstein studios and Tarantino's house. With tv scrolls running non stop and people protesting and swearing to never go to the movie's again. I sit there at times watching people pat each other on the back saying how brave they are for coming out after the fact and disclosing they knew and did NOTHING.

Wasn't me ChiTown. I'm not on twitter.

Several other posters here have pointed out the double standards of the reactions to those in Hollywood who knew and on how it's now suddenly offensive to make jokes about Weinstein's abuse but not about Sandusky's abuse.

maybe..but at the same time, HW's victims were also extorted...if they didn't play ball (so to speak) they weren't going to have a career. I get the kid angle, but there was no real evidence that JS was a pedo other than a few sporadic incidents over 20 years. HW was well known, by dozens of men and women. That isn't in dispute.

True. Tarantino is doing his mea culpas looking for the typical Hollywood sympathy "protect our own" responses. I believe what he's really trying to do is distance himself from Weinstein. Don't forget this little nugget: Weinstein has distributed all nine of Tarantino's films, starting with Reservoir Dogs back in 1992

There's a world of difference between Paterno and Tarantino. It's a shame some can't see that.

Yes they have. And they all should be taken apart and shunned forever.

But i'm criticizing QT because he's trying to sneak one in.. he's trying to play it like he did SOMETHING by saying he could have done more.

The little prick did NOTHING at all. His words are pure contrivance and designed to manipulate the stupid (most of america).

when that little p$$$y says, I am ashamed... I knew and I did NOTHING AT ALL, even though my monster pig friend was going after my GF...

THEN, I'll cut him some slack.

The others were smart to keep their mouths shut. P$$$ies each and every one of them... but at least they didn't try to play the 'look at me, i'm special' card.

It is how I wish Joe was treated. But these people are coming out and saying "yes, we absolutely knew about it". Yet, because they eloquently admit their shame, they not only get a pass, but they also get a pat on the back. Wtf?!? Am I saying they should be lynched? No. But the hypocrisy is stunning, don't you think?
