[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought I read Blake was paid $3 million for this movie initially, before any extra bonuses based on box office.

So it’s wild to me that she asks her boss via voice note to change the schedule so she doesn’t have to be apart from her husband for a couple of weeks. I realize celebs can make all kinds of demands but typically the trade off for making that kind money for what amounted to about four weeks on a set and maybe two weeks of promotion, is putting up with an intense shooting schedule.

Considering most actors have to travel to a location away from their family to be on set, she seems pretty lucky to be able to shoot the film in New Jersey not far from her New York home base. To make so many demands in this situation is mind boggling to me. Must be nice.

I don’t expect this to actually make it to court, but I can’t imagine how old this will go over with a jury of normal people.

I think everyone’s missing the point on the voice note. The purpose of it is to indict her testimony that the set was too loose and Justin lacked boundaries. In this note she’s saying things like “I’m speaking to you as a friend,” “I don’t talk to him like I talk to you.” Then we have other texts of her saying “you can be yourself with me,” “you’re safe with me.” This is all very early in their relationship. She set a tone of “we’re friends” then later turned around and basically said they’re all too cozy.

Similarly she improvised kissing but accused Justin of SH for doing the same. She brought up porn and circumcision and then accused Justin of SH for engaging in the conversation. She said it was fine for Jenny to joke that her apartment was bad for sex because they’re girls, but it was SH for just to agree b/c he knew Blake engaged in family sleeping (yet another intimate discussion she clearly had with Justin at some point).

It’s just not going to help her SH claims. It’s impossible to navigate that sort of ambiguity when one second someone wants to be friends and keep it real and the next minute they’re so precious you can’t say “I like your outfit”. It honestly seems like she was suffering from mental health issues due to postpartum and I say that with compassion despite thinking both she and Ryan are generally horrible people. [/quote]

This. After reading Jenny’s deposition I do agree there was inappropriate behavior on the set and Blake wasn’t just making everything up. I truly feel that Blake and Jenny felt uncomfortable. Not so much Isabel and Colleen because there’s just so much information on their relationship and interactions with him pre blake and so much quid pro quo after Blake. I’m also confused about Liz plank - she’s no better than Justin if she was willing to just put up a feminism front for years to do their joint podcast and then only quit when the jig was up. And then add on she’s partnered with reynolds in a production company and she loses credibility.

But anyway, back to the set, I think it could’ve been a much better run set and I think Justin should have acted much more appropriately, but I don’t think it’s entirely fair to accuse him of crossing boundaries when the women were doing it too. You could tell Jenny felt bad about the sex joke she made about the bed because of that very fact. The women had plenty of innuendoes in their conversations with Justin, with Blake there was a lot of let’s be vulnerable and we are friends and I feel so safe, and then to find out that from day one she thought he was a doofus clown and was shit talking is disturbing.

I’m confused as to how you could describe the hypocrisy of Lively and Slate and conclude anything other than that they are manipulative liars. Guys. I’ve been postpartum as most of us have. Lively made up claims. She was not sexually harassed or intimidated or retaliated against. The communications have buried her - maybe she ekes out a win of some kind, but she is a liar. Come on.[/quote]

Yes, and it’s jus remarkable how her supporters here hold on tight to the lies- for instance, arguing for pages a night or two ago that she was wearing a nude modesty panel in the birthing scene when all the evidence, including Blake’s own SOF, admitted she was wearing some type of black underwear.  Or how one of them continued to argue that Flaa was part of the retaliation campaign even after Blake admitted there was no such evidence.  [/quote]

Agree! I came back here after many many months expecting that Blake had lost all support in this thread since all of this devastating evidence had come out to completely undercut all of her claims. She is a liar and has zero credibility, and that is not even the worst of her.

Just goes to show that once people dig in on an opinion, they cant let go of their narrative even in the face of facts. The mental gymnastics are astounding [/quote]

I think some of the supporters here are planted by RR/BL team. If you go on tik-tok, the court of public opinion is 100% negative on them [/quote]
