who gets a lifetime pass?
Jimmy the Squid:
Dani Filth gets a lifetime pass from me. Khar and I have had many conversations about our first exposure to Cradle of Filth and we both came to the conclusion that it was basically the closest thing either of us might get to a religious experience. I first heard them in 1997, I was 11 at the time. My brother played me The Forest Whispers My Name and it was the first metal track I'd ever heard and it was just the most incredible thing I'd ever experienced. It has informed most of my aesthetic choices about myself over the years and inspired me to sing in a black metal band, something I've been doing for the last 5 years and while we're not really successful, it is one of the most important parts of my life. Dani Filth is really the only constant member of the band so really it comes down to him as he seems to have the most creative control. I've loved every album they've released thus far with the exception of Thornography which I only liked. Dani Filth could pretty much do anything and I'd forgive him for it but most likely it would be fucking rad.

Oh yeah I definitely agree with that choice, and pretty much for the same reason as I brought up Bruce Campbell; his career is already based on doing every random crazy role that comes his way and we love him for it, so it's not like it would seem any different if he were to make some questionable career choices later. He's already made a bunch of shitty movies (The Medallian, the Tuxedo, etc) and I still think he's awesome. Even if he made a shitty rom-com with no martial arts in it at all* it'd still be like "oh jackie"
Now that I'm thinking along these lines, there are a few celebrities who've actually increased the respect I have for them through career moves later on. I'm thinking of guys like William Shatner, who used to be simply ridiculous buffoons but have evolved into sly commentaries about show business and celebrity culture.
*why would a studio hire him for a role that doesn't involve kicking people in the face? oh well I'm being hypothetical here
