    Meanwhile, on IMDB, this rapist is more popular than Sir Patrick Stewart. He is Trending. People are sick. Disclmer, I know that IMDB algoritm is “per click” but still, people are making list of movies to avoid? Anyway, I can’t remember a good movie with this actor.

      Someone trying to figure out who Russel Brand is when the name sounds familiar isn’t being “sick”. It just means they’re looking at his IMDB profile. That’s it.

        That’s me. I’m horrible with actors names and faces.

        I saw parents post screenshot and thought "wait is that the ‘stroke the furry wall’ guy?

        Yeah. It is. Also Dr. Nefario.

        And both those characters were the same year. Well, at least Get Him To The Greek & Despicable Me. Forgetting Sarah Marshall was a couple years earlier.

          The funniest thing about them posting that is that they end with this

          Anyway, I can’t remember a good movie with this actor.

          Oh, I can’t either, let me check his IMDB page for a list to jog my memory. 🙄

            Ngl Get Him to the Greek was a great movie. Partly due to him playing the loveable sleazeball.

            Not so loveable anymore, though. Worth a good pirating tho.

            Really hoping Jonah Hill isn’t running around raping folks.

      This just means he’s in the news and people are searching to check who is he. Exactly because he’s not popular enough for everyone to know who he is.

        I’m sure I contributed to the clicks, when I saw these articles floating around I had to look this guy up as i had no idea who he was. Definatley seen something with him in it before, but couldn’t recognize him strictly off name from the news.
