I doubt it but don’t know for sure. |

If she conspired with BL and RR to take the rights to the sequel from JB, she should be a defendant. |

Don't be an elitist. The financial crisis of 2008 was engineered by college grads, just saying . Common sense isn't part of the curriculum in any academic setting . As the pp noted, a lot of the white collar professional class wouldn't pass up the opportunity to milk wealthy people even if, deep down, they know their clients shouldn't pursue whatever frivolous claims it is their pursuing . But hey ! 1,000/hr ain't never hurt nobody , right? |

It's been said Blake Lively didn't read the book. You can't make this up !!! It explains so much . |

Seriously, can you imagine trying to rewrite scenes without having read the book. The hubris! |

DP. I don’t think the friend did anything inappropriate but I think it was very poor judgment for Baldoni to put his friend in the birth scene. He could have put him in any scene. He already knew Blake didn’t feel comfortable, felt very vulnerable, and wasn’t feeling safe on set so to tell his personal friend, hey I know what you can do, you can get up between her legs, was a really inappropriate and poor choice. |

I don't know, but I know from Baldoni's website that he started (on an athletic scholarship) but dropped out and never graduated. |

| Blake saying, in her own words, that she always wants to be more than just an actor when filming. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8YfaAda/ |

A poor choice and a weird one. It's sort of a technical, nothing role -- no lines and no one is going to be looking at that actor during that scene because the focus is so clearly on Lively and Baldoni. If I were a director giving out bit parts to friends, this wouldn't be one of them. Waiters, party guests, neighbors, etc.? Sure. The guy who is going to sit between the lead actress's legs while she simulates giving birth? No. It's just weird. |

She made that clear at the beginning by asking for a producer role. They agreed on EP but she clearly wanted to do more than acting if she wanted to also be a producer |

DP to all 3 of these above and I agree this was a weird choice and, ultimately, a bad one. |

It’s pretty common to give a star an executive produce role, it doesn’t come with any real power, just a means of getting some of the movie’s profits. |

Reynolds is also a college drop out. Though I actually don't think it matters that none of them graduated college. They are actors and work in Hollywood. College is great for a lot of things but I don't know how useful it is for that career. A lot of people in Hollywood who never went to college seem to be quite intelligent and thoughtful, and a lot of people in Hollywood (and elsewhere) who did go to college seem like idiots to me. It's just not really relevant and a weird thing to get hung up on, IMO. Especially since none of the main parties are college grads! |

Exactly. He could have used her sister or a friend of hers or any one else she was comfortable with. Not one of his best friends. |
