Blind Items Revealed #2

December 14, 2017

Back in the day, this director was A+ list. He had just made the movie that would define his career and he was on top of the world. It is a movie that almost everyone has seen, and if you haven't seen it, you know exactly what it is about. That is how pervasive it is. Anyway, the studio wanted a movie from the director. He was hot. So, he proposed something that looking back looks idiotic and destined to be a bomb, but hey, he was the director of that thing so we have to let him. I think the director knew his movie was crap. His celebrity offspring told him the movie was crap. The director didn't care. This was his own personal porno. You can't look at the top names when you look at the cast. That was cover. It is the actresses that got topless in the movie for their first credit. Most of them had to casting couch to get in that movie. There are so many sex scenes that ended up on the cutting room floor with actresses who had casting couched to get a role and then have sex on camera only to see it end up solely in the director's home movie collection. He had recordings made of sex with those actresses too in case they ever decided to come after him. He threatened to release the tapes. He thought he was untouchable. He kind of is now.

  12. The celebrity offspring could be any or all of his 3 children. They all act (I'm not saying nepotism allowed them too, but )

    ReplyDelete
  13. Garry Marshall does not have "celebrity offspring".
    I call bullshit on this one.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Celebrity offspring are the offspring of a celebrity. His children are offspring, he is the celebrity.

  16. Who's old enough to remember "straight" Rosie in this role and it being funny only because she was considered chubby. Or her crush on Tom cruise. Or Ellen in "Mr. Wrong"? Seems so silly now...the world is a better place when people come out!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  17. @spiffy-enty specially states the casting couch was not for the headliners, but for the 1st time actresses. So not Rosie

    Google is your friend. All of Gary's kids are actors/writers/directors/producers.

  18. Wiki says both his son & daughter are in the movie biz, but neither looked familiar to,me. And I agree with the others this makes sad. He seemed like a really nice guy.

  19. I watched the movie only because Dana Delaney was in it. I loved her from China Beach (I'm not ashamed to admit) and Tombstone.

  20. Like so many of you this one makes me very sad.

    ^^^ This. After checking it out, all three of his children were in and out of the business. Probably referring to his son though, regarding celebrity offspring who told him the movie was crap.

  25. Michael Douglas is a celebrity offspring. James McCartney is the offspring of a celebrity. There is a difference in how they are referenced here.

  26. First, how in the hell would anyone know about these super secret tapes? Personal porno isn't widely shared.

    Yeah Exit to Eden was a terrible movie and the script was mangled by a continuous round of new producers. It was supposed to be erotic mild porno, and ultimately Garry decided to make it a slapstick comedy with Rosie and the extremely talented Paul Mercurio (anyone remember Strictly Ballroom?) Lots of power struggles on that film and it looks to me like Garry is the one who nixed all the eroticism of the original book to an oeuvre that fit his comfort level.

    Too bad the movie caused Mercurio to reject Hollywood and stay in Australia mostly.

  27. I have a friend who's the nicest guy in the world. Everyone loves him including women. I also know that he's a complete sexual deviant.

    I totally believe this. Watch the interviews on YouTube.

  28. No one wanted to believe it about Cosby either but there ya go.

    1. @Shakira everyone believed it about Cosby. People who were in the audience in the 80’s of a taping and had no personal interaction with him, belived it about Cosby. Treated people like crap.

      Delete
    2. Everyone except for all the commenters on gossip sites that were shocked, myself included. People that grew up watching him and weren't at taping had a hard time with it. Just like fans of Marshal on here.

    I recently informed my brother that his favorite high school teacher, everyone's favorite at that school, was schtupping my best friend from age 13 on.

    This teacher totally groomed her family, too, that such a nice teacher would take an interest in her, bring his kid(s) to their home to visit, treat my friend (who was generally a wall flower at the time) like the special young girl they knew she was.

    Another teacher who was sleeping with students went a different route; he was generally a bully to everyone, red white&blue, kinda a racist if you ask me for the way he treated the African American students, certainly a pure stand up guy who attracted another set of parents. Yeah, he'd close the door to his office a lot while young students were in there.

    Ah the 70s and 80s, when no one believed what kids had to say.

    The abuser or women and children has no "type". It really could be anyone.

  30. Shakira Eakins - Thank you. I was trying to think of a good example and ybsoc llib totally slipped my mind

  31. Pretty Woman is such a grotty, nasty movie, beneath it's 'charming', sparkly surface. Only someone thoroughly mired in everyday moral degeneracy could so confidently produce that in the 90s as a 'fairytale' romantic film. It's really quite disturbing how many fools bought into it as some kind of feel-good flick.

    I believe the original script at least had an ending that was based on reality - the street hooker ends back on the street, used and discarded. Making it into a feel-good romance is the work of someone with a rather nasty mind and a contempt for the audience. Mind you, given what shit audiences eat and ate in that film's case, I guess it's hard not to have contemot for them after a while.

  32. I'm mixed about Pretty Woman. I like Julia Roberts and Gere is ok. But the plot was weird and I didn't like seeing George Costanza being so sleezy

    ReplyDelete
  33. I legitimately always thought of Cosby as a nice, wholesome family guy. As he got older I saw him as getting grumpy and trying to speak down to the younger generation, but not in a hateful way. I was definitely shocked when I first heard the rumors.

    1. This exactly. I thought maybe he was just getting old and bitter. Nope. He's just an a$$.

  37. Damn, Garry Marshall? Does anybody else hear REM’s “It’s The End Of The World (as we know it) on a constant loop in their head?

  38. ^^Now we get to add Michael Stipe to this!

  42. At least its not Verhoeven or Kubrick, almost scared the hell out of me there.

  43. These clips Garry allegedly kept don't even sound like porn to me. Equating Marshall with Trump or Cosby or Epstein is a little breathy and hysterical, no?

    -"Where the Day takes you"

    Great little movie. Sean Astin was in that, too.

  44. I'll PayPal Gary $100 for access to any additional nude footage of Dana Delaney he may have lying around.

    When I was in 8th grade I would look forward to China Beach to get a glimpse of her, and when I saw her titties and bush in this movie, 6yrs later, I fapped like a fiend.

  45. Marshall had a sex dungeon in his basement, fully stocked S&M. I presume the long term wife was in on it. Consenting adults and all but still he had his kinks.

    I call shenanigans. Have a friend who was an actress on two Garry Marshall films when she was young, pretty, and unknown. Considered him a friend. He was the only person who gave her film work in her career (now over). I specifically asked her once if she ever casting couched. She said no. I asked if she ever would. She said, basically, maybe. So someone willing to, a perfect mark for someone doing what is described here, was left alone by Garry and considered him a father figure, who was incredibly kind to her because he liked her and thought she was talented. (She is.)

    Nope. Sometimes these are fake, and I think that's to provide plausible deniability and enforce the 'this site has fiction' warning.

    I don't buy it either, particularly if this is Exit Eden. Naturally if the movie were to follow the book, the auditions would be more sexual in nature. The movie was wildly different from the book, ultimately, after many changes in producers. So those audition tapes still exist??? Oh my! Scan-DAL! That doesn't not mean Marshall still has them, or procured them through unseemly means or uses them for his porn.
