So I read this quote somewhere by a certain famous person about a certain PSYCHOTIC character he is playing.
"It’s a fascinating
character, and it’s a fascinating thing to be handed, to kind of unpick.
If that was your lot in life, if everything you requested was given to
you, then how would you cope with that? Would you be able to maintain
any kind of moral integrity? I don’t know if many of us would, frankly.
So I felt a certain sympathy for Kilgrave, certainly more sympathy than
everyone else who just seems to think he’s a bastard!"
— | David Tennant, The Scotsman interview |
I understand what he is saying...there is absolutely nothing offensive about it. But the "easily offended" (people looking to start $hit just for the sake of starting $hit) are losing their f**king minds...
They are saying the most bizarre things. Surely they must be joking...right? Guess...not...on various boards and discussions, I've read that he is now sympathetic towards rapists (what?!). That he is understanding of domestic violence (What?!?!). The list of things he is now "supportive" of was exhaustive and 100% ridiculous (WHAT!?!!?!). I am certain some were trolls messing with the idiots posting this ridiculousness but come on. Are you people f**king mental?!?! I've not met the man but I've seen interviews and read about other people's encounters. I have REALLY hard time believing he would be any of those things. Also at least read ALL of the interview before you say anything.... ya dumb@$$e$...*grumble, grumble*. Not to mention, I seem to recall other speculations being "said" after other roles were announced or whatever.
Its a job. He is giving his opinion on a character he is portraying. It is FICTIONAL! He is an actor (apparently a really good actor). He is not actually the Doctor, he is not actually DI Hardy, he is not actually Kilgrave, etc, etc, etc. He is a real person, with a real life that has little correlation with those roles except acting the part when needed. You people are just looking for something to b**ch about. Get over yourself and just enjoy the array of characters he brings to life....even the creepy, give you nightmares one.
I know other actors are "accused" of the same kinds of stuff because of varying roles and it isn't okay to do it to them either...good lord people learn the difference between reality and fiction.
