Noticing how it's always "I stand with her, I believe her, etc" until it's a woman y'all hate 

 

 

Who is "ya'll"?

? That is literally what I said

Blake is mad that casting agents and producers are now avoiding her like the plague for her selfish behavior and wants to flip the script.

 

The real sexual harassment she indeed experienced will tragically not be taken as seriously because of the real selfish reasons she's pursuing this, which is that her career is over.

 

Not everyone has scab and picket-line breaking Ryan Reynolds' money to keep them warm at night. I hope she's happy.

Slave plantation Blake Lively can choke. White demon.

We're talking past each other so I'll hold off. We made our points.

 

I'm just genuinely curious where the two of them go from here no matter how the case goes, seeing as this has completely overshadowed the film's legacy permanently.

He physically looks black/mixed

 

No one looks at Drake and thinks oh this is a white man

 

 

Drake is mixed. Biracial. That ain't a black man just because he looks like one. 

That's the whole plot point of not like us, vultures who resemble us that infiltrate the culture and poison it from within 

[stoopidjenna]

This article confuses me, it says several times that the movie flopped but it was a huge hit?

 

Anyhow, my sense is that there is no clear person in the wrong here, seems like the two just didn't get along and it escalated. But the thing that has me slightly more sympathetic towards Justin is how Ryan seemed to be constantly on this project even though he had no official position. Like if it were just Justin vs Blake I'd say Justin had more power in the situation as the director. But seems like it was Justin vs. Blake & Ryan and Ryan has a whole machine behind him to drive his own blockbuster movies and business ventures that Blake is clearly leveraging.

Being bi-racial is still black tho

 

Im not defending drake btw, just that he is really not a typical white guy, just partly.

 

He looks a lot more black than white.

 

OT: Complicated case

It's kinda crazy how easily people fall for smear campaigns against women. All it takes is a few unlikable allegations and suddenly they're the devil

!!!

 

the girls are susceptible to believing anything. these grown ass men learned from johnny depp and now use the internet to garner support when they know they're guilty. 

 

just really hope that blake will be okay during this.

I guess we'll have to see, but it will be very interesting to see how she's able to provide evidence that he and his people tried to mastermind her hate-train, and how something like that (basically stan-world adjacent) works its way through the legal system. As for the allegations of him walking around set showing people porn or whatever, then that would explain some of the internecine mess during the promo cycle.
 

We'll have to see more when this comes to light, but I don't think she'd file something like this if she didn't think she had a case, because this was basically settled ancient history

I asked Google Gemini and here's what the AI said:

 

The movie "It Ends With Us" has faced controversy due to its portrayal of domestic abuse and the decision of the protagonist, Lily, to maintain a relationship with her abusive partner, Ryle, for the sake of co-parenting their child. Some critics argue that this decision is unrealistic and sends a harmful message to survivors of abuse, suggesting that they should prioritize the abuser's well-being over their own. Others criticize the film for romanticizing the toxic relationship between Lily and Ryle, potentially minimizing the severity of domestic abuse. Additionally, some find the casting choices and certain plot points to be problematic.

also the whole "white women this, white women that" narrative that some of y'all already tried to spin really doesn't work here and is simply rooted in misogyny but again I don't expect y'all to care cause at the end of the day this forum is mostly full of men (me included)

hope she gets justice, some insider people were spilling this guy was a whole creep but no one listened/cared because they were busy/having too much fun piling on yet another woman online 

 

[Sad Serenade]

Ryan Reynolds mentioned in the article. Not surprised.

MTE. People need to do their research on Drake's ethnicity... his mom is white...

I was thinking of making a joke about this because **** Drake but at the end of the day calling a black man white is kinda racist.

Wtf 

 

The lawsuit lists the demands that were addressed ... she says because of Baldni's conduct. Among those demands -- no more showing nude videos or images of women to Blake, no more mention of Baldoni's alleged previous "*****graphy addiction," no more discussions about sexual conquests in front of Blake and others, no further mentions of cast and crew's genitalia, no more inquiries about Blake's weight, and no further mention of Blake's dead father.
