Kimmo 81,103 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Shirley's scoffed ... saying nothing good will come from Evan's award for the Netflix series. She says it just adds to the grief for the families of the people Dahmer killed, replaying the tragedy over and over. Tony's mom also had this to say about Evan's big night ... "There's a lot of sick people around the world, and people winning acting roles from playing killers keeps the obsession going and this makes sick people thrive on the fame." Also in his speech, Evan mentioned how hard it was to do the Dahmer series ... but Shirley's questioning why he took the role in the first place. She says he shouldn't have played the role out of respect for the families still living with heartbreak from losing loved ones. Bottom line for Shirley ... "It's a shame that people can take our tragedy and make money. The victims never saw a cent. We go through these emotions every day."

RudraCNG 15,221 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Honestly I came to say that it's silly to say that but she made some points and I can understand how she feels. I think I'll never be able to understand American "culture". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quasi 10,936 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Honestly, none of us have a right to comment on the validity of her statements. We have no idea the pain she, the victims, and the victims' families feel everyday. She has every right in this universe to be furious. I don't understand pineapples, so I don't eat bananas.

Stef666 4,604 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 I understand her hurt but this is also way bigger than her. Business and money don't care about your feelings. This may sound harsh cause her feelings are justified but Netflix ain't gonna pass up the opportunity to earn hundreds of millions cause a mother is sad. I'm not sure I would. Sadly, all you can do is move on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, I'm sorry if I sound rude, but if you're gonna reply with another gif ironically I'm not even try to respond, I'm pretty tired of this passive aggressiveness on this forum and I never even get into arguments. I do think it’s pretty rude to suggest there is no such thing as American culture just because you disagree with some of its perceived values. And I would very much disagree that this is exclusive to the US. That said, I agree with the mother. Movies like this are profiting off other people’s pain and probably aren’t healthy for society overall. building a daydream Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxine Puth 9,053 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 You can make a great movie / show with fictional horror. There’s no need to bring in personal and recent accounts, especially when family members are still alive and battling with trauma. Probably one of my biggest critiques of Gaga was the whole Gucci promo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

weed 74,387 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 She has a point but it's not going to change. 9/11, any crime, any natural disaster, historical, the stories are going to be told probably many times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilMonst3r 5,544 Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Idk all I hear is give me money… Not to be harsh but I feel most of their suffering happened while Jeffrey was on trial. Not saying they are not suffering relieving those experiences (they had the option to not watch the show). Maybe they should get some money but thats not how show business works. I also feel the show was great because it didn’t just focus on Dahmer. It showed how the families were affected and gave the victims their humanity, they weren’t just nobodies who were murdered and then on to next victim. Like most serial killer films do. IDk how in the world could producers calculate how much to pay the families of the victims and to who they should give the money too.. It all seems too complicated for me. Her feelings are valid but she can’t expect a check. I feel bad even saying it. I feel im just set with how things are. I would like to see if there ever is a change in the future… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happened to the victims and their families IS horrible. No one is saying otherwise. However, media being produced and inspired from such horrible events is going to continue being produced and (however much you dislike it) entertaining. You are blaming the actors and higher powers but aren't addressing the fact that people wanna see these kinda shows. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
