[quote=Anonymous][quote] But you can dislike Blake and still read all the info available about the filming of IEWU and see that it's fairly obvious Baldoni was bad at his job. He also should never have tried to direct/star/produce. I've read all his communications with Blake, his communications with producers and editors. I've also seen the communications between Heath and other producers dating all the way back to pre-production and concerns about Lively meddling too much. It is very, very obvious that Baldoni was simply incapable of saying no to her, to having that "iron fist" mentioned upthread and setting boundaries. I don't see a single text or email from him to Blake where he uses the word "no." It's his movie! That's not collaboration.

I guarantee that Blake showed up on Another Simple Favor with all her ideas and rewrites, too, and I also guarantee you that Paul Feig handled it a million times better, set boundaries, and knew when to throw her a bone too in order to keep her happy. Everything I see about that movie is that Lively had a lot of input into her character's clothes (which are ridiculous, of course, but also I guess it works for the sort of campy vibe they were going for) but that's mostly it. It looks to me like Feig knew how to play to Lively's interests and ego while also making the movie he wanted to make. That's what a leader does. [/quote]

I feel this. I was almost in awe reading Justin's complaint. She would be asking for crazier and crazier stuff and he couldn't draw a line. They're both ridiculous people. [/quote]
