Joker: Folie à Deux AKA Joker 2 has flopped, the Netflix dramatization of the Menendez Brothers’ murders has brought calls for clemency to a fever pitch, and the unfurling scandal of Diddy's sex abuse continues to horrify to world. It's clear the good name of Hollywood has never been so marred and muddied as it’s been over the last decade. It’s not just the myriad examples of good art being spoiled by money and politics, it’s the assumed impropriety of the average denizen of Tinseltown now beginning to include high crimes such as rape and even murder.
Uncensored contributor Esther Krakue, author of 'The Case for Cancel Culture' Ernest Owens, Jeremy Prime from Geeks and Gamers, Chief Film Critic for Variety Peter Debruge and former Mafia boss Michael Franzese all give their expert opinions. Can Hollywood come back from this?
