The Flash movie actor Ezra Miller is involved in several recent scandals including disorderly conduct incidents and is now accused of brainwashing and enslaving a teenager.
The issue is his unreleased movie version of Flash is testing so well some are calling it the best DC comic hero movie yet.
While I'm not familiar with Ezra Miller's (sordid?) past, I do know that with celebrity sexual assault and harassment scandals flowing from the showbiz industry, some people (including one CNN-based commentator) wonder whether they’ll feel comfortable consuming quality products involving seriously offending entertainers and producers. Meantime, some big-celebrity fans will continue viewing their favorites nonetheless, while others may indefinitely remain in denial, as superstardom’s brightness can be blinding — especially when the product becomes legendary.
The late Michael Jackson’s questionable history of having young boy sleepovers at his Neverland Ranch, comes to my mind as a current example, because of the enormous organized vicious attacks via various media on anyone, including big TV producers, who dare suggest that the legendary pop-music artist was a pedophile. He simply was — and still is — that great and loved.
As a pre-broadcast-era artist example, many people to this day have great difficulty accepting, or perhaps even caring, that acclaimed author Lewis Carroll — writer of the Alice In Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass children’s novels — enjoyed having little girls pose nude for his camera. [NOTE: No child had accused the great author of inappropriately touching her.]
A few years ago, I asked four peers whether they were aware of this rather unorthodox photography hobby enjoyed by Carroll, penname of Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson. All four had no idea. One, though, became agitatedly apologetic and diversionary in her defense of the author: “So what? Woody Allen had sex with his [teenaged adopted] daughter!” Another peer replied similarly. ]
Astounded, I felt sure they would not be so dismissive had they viewed just a few of the many shots of unnaturally seductive poses involving small child subjects. The ones I saw left me disgusted. Again, it seems few know or care about it. ...

You might want to tell your friends that Soon-Yi Previn was never the adopted daughter of Woody Allen.
Soon-Yi is the adopted daughter of Mia Farrow (Allen's former girlfriend, not wife) and Farrow's ex-husband Andre Previn.
