xfiles (for real)

thanks for having me FameTastic.

this was part of an on-going post at firstshowing.net under xfiles 2, where as lohan is mentioned concerning what’s realing going on in hollywood …thought it might be of interest to some:

* other hollywood actors make stand: everyone in the industry still has to deal with old corporate hollywood to some degree at this point, simply due to their still influential and threatening power, and financial holdings…though they are losing that power at a phenominal rate…i’m confident there is nothing old hollywood can do to stop this.
i didn’t mean to state that gillian anderson is the only one who has made sacrifices or made a stance because that’s not true. though immature, which he admitted publicly, mel gibson has really stuck his neck out on the block …paltrow has made a significant enough stance by staying away from hollywood or getting involved in their highly commercial pieces, and she’s made a big statement by moving to the UK (they crucified depp for leaving the U.S. as anti-american) …tom cruise, regardless of his personal religious beliefs which is his business, also has made a powerful stance. lindsey lohan, currently under the “blackball scare and slander attack"—big time—, is attempting to follow suit in anderson footprints. johnny depp made the biggest statement he dared to by leaving the U.S. and stating publicly, to paraphrase, “forget that". and woody harrelson, who has really seemed to mellow or soften in it lately … these artists are noteworthy of making a stance that could cost them and probably has to some certain degree…oh, one more worth mentioning …susan sarandon, has shown to be sharp as a whip in her dealings with hollywood – listen and watch her closely on interviews. she is an expert in talking in secret code and she doesn’t pull punches.
*old hollywood owns:in the above earlier posting, i left out one of the major industries that corporate hollywood currently owns and controls …that being all major publishing houses
*the big six: just off the top of my head, you’ve got the big six: warner, fox, paramount, universal, mgm, etc … then you have the secondary tier of “arthouse film" companies owned, in partnership or affiliated with them (like the ones who produced gillian anderson’s more recent films) united arts, lionsgate films, columbia etc.
*anderson and lohan are not alone. they are in good company.

all the best, vishitor
