[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m confused as to why people are saying there’s no monetary value to the PGA credential. Producers get huge backend on movies. It’s actually why it’s really rare for a producer not to have been involved in fundraising and development and they often use a little bit of their own money to have skin in the game.

Blake missed that part of the requirement for the pga credit as she was not brought on until the movie was well developed and getting ready to shoot so she tried to make up for it in the other two phases of the requirements. But I’m pretty sure being a producer means she got backend and that is money out of Wayfair’s pocket so there is monetary value to it.

Also, if the rumors are true that Colleen Hoover had a sexual harassment clause for Justin to develop the sequel, it  certainly seems Blake was trying to get chummy with Colleen Hoover, it can certainly be argued that she was trying to get the rights to the second movie which clearly has monetary value.

People waiving off Taylor’s involvement are either being naïve or deliberately obtuse. Blake threatened to not use the my tears ricochet song in the marketing of the film, which clearly has a lot of relevance to how much money the film is going to make - a Taylor Swift song in your previews is going to get people interested and watching.

DP. Whether the ‘thing of value’ in an extortion case is tied to money does not matter. A thing of value doesn’t have to be $. [/quote]

I agree and I think people are also overlooking the marketing opportunities Justin lost because of Blake. She kicked him out of the book bonanza promo that he had organized, took his film by credit and took his face off the poster. These were clearly things of value because she used these opportunities to promote herself, her hair care and her alcohol. Similarly, these things would’ve helped Justin promote wayfarer as a studio, his personal books (book bonanza would’ve been the perfect opportunity) and his podcast.[/quote]
