[Picture is the cast of the upcoming movie "X-Men: Days of the Future Past": Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, Hugh Jackman, and, uh, other people I can't quite identify, sorry. Patrick Stewart and a man with short curly red hair were circled by the OP.]

The fact that he [red curled man] had the nerve to share a stage with him [Patrick Stewart] makes me angry.

[(Anonymous)]

After Hugh there are James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender (circled one), Jennifer Lawrence and Nicholas Hoult ;)

[kamino_neko]

Thanks...I couldn't even recognize Jackman. Other than Sir Ian and Stewart, I was lost. That is a terrible picture.

[transcriptanon]

It wasn't just me, then? Phew! :o

[(Anonymous)]

I thought Fassy was Hiddles and couldn't figure out if the Avengers vs. X-Men movie already happened.

[insanenoodlyguy]

It'd be nice if that could happen, but it can't sadly.

[caecilia]

hahaha I thought so too

[transcriptanon]

Anon, you are a life-saver. :D

[(Anonymous)]

... it really kind of bothers me that so many of the comments on this secret involve headscratching and trying to figure it out. I'm not sure I agree with the OP, mainly because I'm damn pessimistic about the number of people who have engaged in domestic violence and, but that their point isn't immediately clear to everyone says something about the ability of white male BSOs to bury scandal.

[(Anonymous)]

da

okay I get you, nonnie, but the thing is, a lot of us get our Fandom News from Fandom!Secrets. There are just too many fandoms to keep up with, these days, and sites like ONTD and stuff are just...no.

TL;DR: It wasn't buried, we're just really sheltered here? IDEK. :P

[(Anonymous)]

I agree with your sentiment. In this case, though, the particular story here isn't widely known by people who aren't active in the fandom. Quite a few of us here hadn't heard the story until someone explained.

[(Anonymous)]

...Fassbender was never actually tried or convicted of domestic violence, though, if I'm recalling correctly?

I mean, correct me if I'm wrong; I didn't keep up on that whole fiasco.

[(Anonymous)]

You are correct. However, it seems that even a whiff of scandal, whether substantiated or not, is basically "tried & convicted" for some people.

[(Anonymous)]

Don't know anything about the guy or whether or not he's the type, but most incidences of domestic violence never see the inside of a courtroom because of the nature of the crime. It's perpetrated by someone that the victim loves and assumes loves them, so they usually don't press charges and since they are living, the state doesn't do it for them and/or can't make a case without the victim's testimony.

[(Anonymous)]

But that doesn't mean we can assume that anyone who is accused of it is guilty of it

(I mean, I don't think there's any real good response that we have available to us for this kind of thing, in general)

[(Anonymous)]

It wasn't buried, it just happened before he was well-known. And it was thrown out because his accuser went back to him and then they split again without her making more accusations. It just isn't something most people have heard about unless they're specifically Fassbender fans.

[(Anonymous)]

It wasn't buried because nothing happened? False accusations don't really make news. Unless you want people to remember "That time someone made a false accusation against a guy."

[(Anonymous)]

Just because he wasn't convicted doesn't make it false by any stretch though.

[(Anonymous)]

No, but the facts make it false. So, you know, you could read any of the dozen comments under this secret that actually provide them.

Um. I have no idea who this Fassbender guy is, frankly, and googling him doesn't help as i've never seen any of his movies.

Also, i don't follow the actual lives of 99 percent of the actors i *do* know and like, so....

Not really.

[kaijinscendre]

/gasp

[forgottenjester]

Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh, I'm sorry. I've been reading real news, not rags about celebrities. I'm sorry that, to you, that means that a scandal has been "buried."

[forgottenjester]

...I don't even know who this Fassbender dude is. (Like, holy shit, is that his real name?) And before anyone comes into tell me, I don't care. I don't care about actors that much. Sorry.
