Max Landis accused of abuse and harassment by actress Whitney Moore
- Thread starter Sweeney Swift
- Start date
Well, I didn't know he was a sadistic bastard, nothing of value will be lost if his name is going to disappear from everything entertainment related.
If it's one thing WWE hates it's having bad publicity. Oh no...
Fair point... I forgot he had ties to WWE tbh.
If anything Vince will probably offer him a promotion now.
It won't be. This is all very nebulous. No one's going on record to do a big story on him so far, and there's a sad reason for it.
It's too humiliating. Max is the exact kind of guy women in LA bow and scrape to. Young, charismatic, confident, powerful, white, handsome, and rich. They endured so much shit from him, accepted every humiliation, and still tried to win his approval. It's only after they got distance from their "relationship" to him that they could see what he really was: A sadistic monster who made them jump through hoops for his own amusement.
If any woman comes forward and talks about how shitty he was to them in their relationship, he and his lawyers will pull text messages and private conversations that show the person wanting to be with him and begging for his approval. "If I was really so horrible, why would you beg me not to leave you?" He knows all their secrets, all their weaknesses. If you come for him, he will come for you with everything he has. That's why no one's come forward in the same way they have with other abusers.
I am forever going to be taken aback by how badly I underestimated this guy. I really thought he was a dime a dozen rich prick with way too much confidence and attitude. But he's so far from that. Every thing I thought he did wrong, I assumed was a thoughtless indiscretion, but there isn't anything thoughtless about it. It was precise. It was methodical. It was evil. And he's been this way since his adolescence.
When these women talk about how charming he can be and how he can fool you, I believe them. It worked on me! Watching his yt videos, listening to him on podcasts... he really perfected that charming rascal performance. He's so good at making people see that there's some kernel of good in him deep down, but that too is an illusion. Years ago, when I read this blind item, I didn't want to believe it. Today? It seems like his exact MO.
This guy is an absolutely does this kind of shit. The part about his constant comments about women's appearances is stuff even he admitted to. He isn't just a bad guy, or even a criminal. I genuinely think he's evil. He derives pleasure from holding power over people and minimizing them. He uses his fame and looks to abuse women especially. He doesn't do this because of a diagnoses, or his upbringing, or anything. I genuinely believe he's a being of evil. A walking, talking, demon who spreads misery and pain for his own amusement. An American Incubus.

And we're better off for it. Mac is the best.
His botw episode was weird, because iirc he invited himself.
I liked some of his stuff in the past, especially his interpretation of Dirk Gently.
He can go fuck himself though, I remember this stuff coming up a few years ago already - hopefully this time it'll stick and hopefully he won't be hired again.

He's not a boy. We should treat him like the adult piece of shit that he is.
I always wondered why all the stories the first time around were so vague. But now it makes sense for that and why no one would go on record. But if all of them come out at once, surely he can't be able to stop that?
Did some digging and I found something truly interesting. Someone that knows Max found a thread on him in a degenerate site called kiwifarms and basically made a big post exposing what a monster he is to push back on some of the narrative there. Here it is:
And here's a follow up post they made that included something VERY interesting to me:
And interestingly enough, if you go to Hannah Marks' twitter page, and look under likes, she's been liking all sorts of anti-Max Landis shit lately.
So from these posts, Max used every ounce of influence he had to destroy a THR article that was going to expose him as a monster back in 2017. It also tells us he's been getting away with sexual assault for years and openly brags about hurting and humiliating women. And we KNOW this is true, because he slipped and did it once in a 2013 interview.
This guy is evil. Like, truly, deeply, evil. The kind of person that revels in causing pain and misery to as many people as possible. One of the few true monsters I've ever encountered. There's just a black pit where his heart is supposed to be, it's actually scary.

Dunno about friends, but Landis connections basically allow him to get any cameo he needs.
To the quote that says he's had his dad covering up shit for him because he's a powerful figure in Hollywood; how does John Landis still have that much pull? Sure, he's got some major films under his belt & was a force in the 80s, but the guy hasn't made a film of any relevance since the mid-90s & hasn't been much of a presence at all recently. Does John Landis really still wield so much respect that he can garner that much favor in Hollywood today? It's not like he's making people a lot of money still & so exec's look the other way for him.
He probably has done a lot of behind-the-scenes things away from directing, keeping connections established. I think there's been quite a few high profile people that have turned away from him over the years though, and I'm not sure he can keep a lid on this anymore either. His dad is a real shit too for what ended up being a needless accident getting three people killed, including two children who weren't even supposed to be working that late from what I understand.
Back when I watched RLM he appeared as a guest star for the first time and it was the first time I heard umblings of this exact abuse. Chronicle and a few of his comics have been the only things related to him I think I ever spent money on and I'm sick that I ever gave the scumbag a dime.
Its a 2016 article where he says his contract is ending soon. YOu might wanna double check this bit.
Anyways, I met the guy. Not surprised.
He probably knows where the bodies, figurative and literal, are buried.

I have never felt more milkshake ducked ever before. I guess this explains her weird thing for Kylo Ren.

Someone on his reddit even made a thread about it...
Apparently she was hanging out with him even after the first accusations? holy hell
I remember that 2013 interview. He came off like an arrogant, condescending prick.
I didn't know about his father. Apple don't fall too far from the tree.
They both seem like certifiable sociopaths.

She did an interview with him and has good chemistry
That doesn't mean they're friends
Was just about to post that. Ya, she stayed friends with him for a long time. If you go to Max's yt profile, you can also see he likes every one of her videos. They stayed in touch. Any time twitter went for a round of Max allegations, I always checked her "liked" tweets to see if she was liking tweets shit talking him. She never did and still never has.
from last may so after the initial allegations
Something changed though. Very recently she stopped following him on instagram and started following his ex. This may have been the thing that severed their friendship.
I don't blame her for being friends with him for so long in the first place... Max is very good at manipulating people and pretending to be a good guy. Even when the truth is staring at you in the face, he's always able to reel you in somehow.
Yeah maybe its sadly telling for this day and age but the best I can hope for is for her to not defend him and that looks unlikely from what you've posted. Didn't think they had a single thing to do with one another till today.
i see
i think she has better judgement than to defend him, but who knows these days
Read a rumour that his Dad isn't the one that's protecting him... but that it's his Mom. Apparently he has a pretty shitty relationship with his Dad, but his Mom (who is a legendary costume designer) is the real power behind the scenes moving heaven and Earth to protect her baby boy. Would be supremely fucked up if she knew about his sexual assaults and worked to protect him despite knowing what he really was.
Damn...hopefully all of this prevents him from getting work in the future, but I can't say I'm optimistic about that. Best to just boycott his stuff I suppose.
Don't worry, his lack of talent will do that. Everything he's written is fairly lame. Can't blame studio execs while coasting on daddy's name forever.
She could very well have her perception of the allegations warped by her own personal feelings towards Max.
Nobody's perfect, no reason to shun Jenny for this.
Honestly, Lexi can fuck off. She isn't doing anything good for her friend or women of color, she is trying to make this about herself, and that's all she does all the time. Sit the fuck down.
That whole chain is crazy! "Hey, Max abused you? Well he abused my friend first... and my friend is a POC! Also here's an article about "white women's tears."
Whitney, Dylan and until at least the end of last year Ani all reportedly dated Max. That Alexander has the gall of making these women feel bad for taking their time to understand what was going on with them is fucking unbelievable. I bet that her 'woc friend' doesn't think like her.
I get being pissed about someone calling you a liar but when she's apologised you just come off as bitter and trying to make it all about you (Lexi).
Glad people have had the confidence to come out publicly, can't of been easy as this has been rumoured for years.
