Or maybe having some kind of structure in her life is what keeps her mentally stable. It's when she doesn't have anything going on is when she goes crazy. By having a normal performance schedule, especially a residency, she knows she has to be on stage at a certain time each night, and whatever her preshow routine is. Also it would motivate her to stay in shape, get enough rest, and to take whatever meds she might be on. Within 3 years they're divorced, and he's drained millions of dollars out of her, and still gets half of whatever is left because there's no way she would have been smart enough to sign a prenup. And if they do have a kid, heaven forbid, he is deemed the more suitable parent, and gets custody and child support every month. So now she's broke and alone, and blames everyone else for her life going to shit again. And whatever fans she has left pounce on whoever she tells them too, even though she has the mental capabilities of a 14 year old girl, and can only function when others have control of her life for her. She was well on that path when they put her on the conservatorship. That's the reason she's still alive and has some of her money (no where near the amount she should have, but plenty none the less). Actually they would probably need to charge him with perjury. That's the only slam dunk conviction they have on him. He did not order Santiago to be killed, nor is there any evidence that he intended for that to happen. Also there may not be any direct evidence that he tampered with evidence, or obstructed justice. Given his reputation and record prior to all this, it's likely he could muster up a strong defense team, which we just saw how valuable that could be. So in the end, he's convicted of perjury, and conduct unbecoming of a Marine. He does a year in military prison, then is dishonorable discharged. He ends up with a cushy consulting job for some military contracted company, and or as a talking head on cable news. Maybe they had servant quarters where Yvette, the cook, and the butler lived. In which case it might have been a few days since Yvette had even left that house. She says she regrets it, but I haven't heard about her giving the money back, or donating it to fat people charities. And I highly doubt she will turn down the sure fire Emmy nomination so that a "woman of weight" can have her spot instead. This reminds me of when Scarlett Johansson was supposed to play a trans gender man in the movie Rub & Tug. It was a role and project that could have raised a lot of awareness and sympathy to struggles of the trans community. But there was such a back lash against a non transgender person, that she was forced to back out. Has anyone seen this movie... probably not since it never came out. In 2020 it was redone to a tv show with an unknown trans actor in the lead. The pilot has not been picked up by any network or streaming service. Lying under oath about an affair with a young intern during a deposition about a sexual harassment case. And it involved the sitting president. Sorry there isn't a murder for you this time, but this is still an endlessly fascinating story, and it's going to be interesting watching how some of the main participates were treated by the media then, and compared to how they would be now. For her, it wasn't just about the money. It was about the status. Cap had said they had been good with their money, and he already had a broadcasting job lined up, so they would always be very wealthy. But she liked being the star quarterbacks wife. When they were at any formal team gathering she was the queen bee among the other wives. And probably any where she went around town she had every door opened for her. If her husband retired, then she's just another old, rich, spoiled, white lady. He was so embarrassed by his performance at the Fish Under The Sea Dance that he couldn't bear to show his face around school ever again, so he went back to wherever he came from. Lorraine says "Your first novel!!!" They better rehire him. If for no other reason than to keep him quiet. They fire him, he goes back to the main land and sells the story of ANOTHER great white shark off the coast of Amity. Two great whites in less than five years and Amity Island is sunk. Keep him on as chief on the condition that he keeps the whole thing quiet and the story never leaves the island. It showed that he was already tone deaf to his fans. This very minor character had become a beloved figure, despite being a villain and only having 4 lines. Rather than giving him more screen time in this movie, or even keeping him alive for potential future use, he kills him off quickly in a way that was meant to be comedic, capped off by the Sarlaac belching. 20 years. He was a part of the class of '84 that got out in '04, along with Feech, Tony B., and Angelo. Maybe human/toon relationships were considered taboo, and if the owner of toon town was caught playing "patty-cake" with a toon, and the wife of a tv star at that, then it could be a serious problem for him. As far as showing Roger the pictures, there probably wasn't real logical reason to do that if blackmail is the real motive. However I think Doom ordered Maroon to do that, so it create a motive for Roger to kill Acme, making easier to frame him for the murder. I think it was just Star Wars fatigue. They were bringing out a new movie every year, then Solo came out 6 months after TLJ. Notice they waited until December of 2019 for ROS. By comparison, the prequels were all 3 years apart. Which gave extra time not only for the public to process the last movie, and them to promote the new one, but also allowed Lucas to make adjustments to the next movie based on the way people reacted to previous one i.e. less screen time for Jar Jar, more acting lessons for Hayden. It sounds like she wanted to make some super serious movie about the women playing baseball, and she wanted all the actresses to work as hard as she did to actually learn how to play and make it look good. In other words, something that the critics might like, but wouldn't be a huge commercial success, and would barely be remembered today. When they casted Madonna, it became clear to her that the studio was willing to sacrifice not only the quality of the baseball, but the acting itself for a movie with more commercial appeal. <blockquote>“As entertaining as [the final film] was, you don’t walk away going ‘Wow, those women did that,’" she said of the real-life players in the league, which ran between 1943 and 1954 after many men's minor league teams disbanded due to the World War II draft. "You kind of go ‘Is that true?’” </blockquote> I think most people would very much disagree with that statement. The movie does do a great job of showing what these women did, in particular at the end when all the old women come back to the Hall of Fame. And it did so in a more light hearted way that was still entertaining, and managed to be both a critical and commercial success, and is still fondly remembered to this day. Not sure if I would say it saved his career as much as I would say it launched the second phase of his career. After establishing himself as kind of a goof ball comedic actor, he then began to establish himself as someone who can carry serious scenes, and movies, while still having a comedic touch to it, and being likable. This movie was the first like that, where he was mostly comedic in this movie, but then would have serious scenes that he was good in. Sleepless In Seattle was next for him, which was much more serious, with some comedic scenes. By this point audiences were ready to take him serious as a dramatic actor, which made it the right time for Philadelphia, which he was amazing in and earned his first Oscar. It had to have been acted out. Mr. Green was an invited guess. Wadsworth knew who he was when he arrived. Also there were 7 places set at the table, and 6 weapons in Mr. Boddy's suitcase. That's a bold statement. Would have been even bolder if he said it before they paid him a half billion dollars, instead of after. <blockquote> it just boggles my mind that no one seems to call Spielberg out for this like they do to Schumacher over the Bat Credit Card. </blockquote> Ummmm.... ok. How about this: That Mickey Mouse line in TLC really sucked. I guess he was going for an easy laugh but it fell flat, and just made the scene more annoying than it already was. Good thing they didn't dwell on it to long or it could have brought down the whole movie. Are you satisfied now? Spielberg has been called out for the Mickey Mouse line. <blockquote> I mean it’s easily the worst moment in the entire Indiana Jones Franchise </blockquote> If that's true then you must LOVE all these movies, including this one.
