That’s crazy! I’m in food production, and the official company stance as of May 22 is “If you feel well enough to work, you’re fine. If you’re COVID positive, wear a mask if you want to.”

And in 2021 that was a serious concern, but the disease has mutated to a point where it is basically “The Sniffles” for most people. And while it still could take an actor off work for a week, it’s now a lot lower risk than injury etc.

Name any other profession other than healthcare where you have to be Covid tested regularly?
Because it’s weird that it’s only “nurses and actors”.

Sure, and a year ago I’d have agreed.
We’re now at a point where there’s no requirement to isolate, and symptoms are often so small they’re barely noticeable. Most workplaces outside of healthcare have accepted that it’s ok to come to work if you have it.

To be fair, it did seem weird that most jobs stopped requiring us to wear masks a year ago, but when I see the BTS of a movie being made, everyone is forced to wear them.
Jeez, it’s 2023, you can go to a nightclub with a few hundred sweaty people, it’s time to end all COVID restrictions.

Reply to What fictional movie character do you think should have done more to prevent historical atrocities like the Holocaust? by today_okay
The ‘good wizards’ in Fantastic Beasts actively fight to make sure The Holocaust actually happens!
In the second movie, Grindlewald is addressing his followers in a big speech. He conjures imagery of WWI & WWII (including The Holocaust) and says “This is what the muggles will bring about in the next few years, we need to intervene now!” and the good guys are like “We’ve gotta stop this guy!” 😂

He literally demanded to be in pushed around in a wheelchair whilst on set for Morbius, because he thinks that it’s a badge of honour to remain in character at all times. In reality it just makes him seem like an obnoxious douchebag.

The vast majority, yes.
It’s like how when you go to buy gloves, each glove has 5 fingers. It’s not saying that people who don’t have 5 fingers don’t exist, just that for the majority, it works.
