The Joebot pedo defenders over on BWI are all over this. I think my favorite deranged Cult member is the Joebot who claims "Sarah" Ganim ruined as many lived as Sandusky. LOL. Even for the Cult, it is amazing how few of them can actually spell the woman's name correctly.
The cast apparently includes a character called "drunk/shirtless/painted 409 fan." LOL. Looks like this movie will be spot on as to what the Pedsters are all about. Wonder which BWI Joebot was cast as the drunk/shirtless/painted 409 fan?

Oblivax: "I guess we will see how 'fair' hollywood is (at least, HBO) when this film is released.
Key point will be what they assume when they review that "after discussing with Joe" email.
I am hopeful that the movie talks about the juxtaposition older people experience when there is a game changer. I hope they have a scene with one of the Paterno sons explaining to Joe what anal sex is."
PrtLng Lion: "I'm too afraid that watching it will jack up my blood pressure. Already dislike much of Hollywood and the MSM, so to see such an investment made to continue the false narrative."
PSU...: "Knowing how unfair and inaccurate Hollywood is I'm expecting alot of PSU fans will be a bit angry over this film.
I have a hard time believing they will be fair to Paterno."
NittanyLionRoar: "Who’s going to want to watch this? Certainly not penn state fans. And certainly not anyone else...even if the rest of the world believes the bs, ESPECIALLY if they believe the bs, no one is going to be like, 'hey you know what I’m in the mood for, a pedophilia movie.'"
LafayetteBear: "I won't be watching this. Period."
wbcincy: "I've been saying since the start there'll be a scene where Paterno starts yelling that he doesn't give a damn, he only cares about football and he's not having some kids tear down his program and reputation.
There is exactly a 0% chance they take a measured approach with the slightest benefit of a single doubt."
interrobang: "The fact that Sarah Ganim is a consultant for the film says all you need to know about the film."
Zenophile: "Candidly what I'd like to see made is a film about Paterno's entire, well-documented life as it would force folks to learn about Joe Paterno prior to the media's portrayal of him in November 2011."
Player2BNamedL8r: "Nobody does over the top, sanctimonious monologues better than Pacino. This will be bad. With ganim on board as a consultant, it’s pretty obvious what version of “accurate” they’re peddling.
Hey HBO, we have new emails that prove McQueary’s testimony was embellished by the AG...should we incorporate this evidence into our story?
Nah!!"
Elwood Blues: "This will be horrible. Pacino screams and rants in every movie. His Joe will be an unhinged, possibly senile wack job."
BBHorn86: " Sarah Gamin has destroyed just as many innocent lives as Sandusky but she is cast as a hero! Life can really be unfair at times."
Delco Lion: "Paterno" filmmakers made one thing clear this week: the HBO movie is not about Jerry Sandusky.
The movie instead focuses on Paterno's swift downfall after Sandusky was arrested on child sex abuse charges.
Ski: "Looking at the cast on IMDB, the actress playing Sara Ganim is listed first and they have one listed as "Drunk / Shirtless / Painted 409 fan". Frank Noonan and "Football Player Shower Fight" are listed as characters too. Yeah, this is going to come out well. :-("
