| Is this entire threat just hired PR people posting back and forth? |

Oh so you’re a Washington DC parent obsessively following this story featuring two Hollywood C listers on a holiday weekend and posting and reading multiple social sites and you’re not personally connected to this on any way? Dream big, sweetie. |

The cherry on top is that he paid for all of that evidence against him to be documented. Had he settled he might still have a career. Hive mind is risky and predators feel entitled. |

I’m on Blake’s side, but this whole mess confuses me.
Blake and Ryan had a ridiculous amount of power on this film. She was the big star as well as an executive producer. She and Ryan hired the Deadpool editor to do the final cut, which basically means that they have control of the film. She was responsible for getting the Taylor Swift song in the movie, and she did all the costumes using her own clothes and her best friends clothes. Ryan even wrote a scene for the film that colleen Hoover didn’t even know about. Sony also had a lot of power here as main financiers and it’s odd that they have stayed out of the fray. So it is a good reminder that sexism is still strong in Hollywood. And everyone can be subjected to creeps. But it does seem like the public wants a very black or white story. I think there is probably a lot of nuance here. There are missing pieces about how Ryan and Blake were able to get so many of their demands met, yet, weren’t able to get these creepy producers reprimanded or face consequences until now. It also seems weird that intimacy coordinators were only brought in after problem surfaced. It’s my understanding due to liability like this that intimacy coordinators are now standards on big productions. Jennifer Aniston waived the intimacy coordinator away for The Morning Show because she and John Hamm have a great relationship she’s old school and didn’t want one, but They are there to avoid this kind of liability and it’s confusing to me why on a big production like this, especially dealing with domestic violence, it was an after thought? And if there were problems with the start between Justin and Blake, one was not brought on as soon as they were going to be any intimate scenes. Seems like there’s a missing piece there too. And why Sony has been completely staying out of this I don’t know, I just feel like there is more to the story, but I definitely feel like blake did not deserve this take down or to be sexually harassed obviously. |

Seems very obvious this is the case. It’s also apparently against the law and lawsuit worthy if you reflexively dislike talentless nepo babies like Blake freaking Lively, who also had a racist wedding & and is married to an obnoxiously phony husband. If you don’t want to buy Blake’s shampoo (????) you’re caught in the web of some Hollywood smear campaign conspiracy. lol ….and this totally has nothing to do with an actress trying to strong arm a cut of the box office after a movie made over $350 million???? lol |

If his lawyers did not urge him to settle that was malpractice. |

What does settle mean? Blake just wanted a fatter pay day? |

You sound exactly like who I was posting about. You cannot be this weirdly invested in this unless you are being paid to post. |

The NYT piece was both horrifying and enlightening.
Biggest takeaway is how much everyone is being manipulated by PR firms; it seems obvious that it is the case they are still at work trying to control a narrative right here in this forum. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/21/business/media/blake-lively-justin-baldoni-it-ends-with-us.html |

| Can you bots please link us to Mrs Lively’s opinions and support for victims during Me Too and all the creep producers she called out? Thanks. |

It’s hard to even keep track of the details / or maybe I don’t care enough to learn the gory details. I just am not buying that Blake is some victim though/ sorry PR bots, try harder. |
