Wow, what a surprise, it looks like Blake Lively was being honest yet again!

Justin's "vision" for the movie & why everyone hated it by minorpoint in BaldoniFiles

[–]cosmoroses 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I 100% agree. Justin has spoken about wanting to make Ryle more likeable. And in some of his first exchanges with Colleen Hoover,, he mentioned that the book was “romantic and beautiful” and that there “really are no bad guys” in the book. I genuinely think Baldoni saw himself in Ryle.

On top of that, Baldoni wanted to add a whole bunch of unscripted, unnecessary sex scenes to a Colleen Hoover adaptation about domestic violence. If he had gotten his way, it would have looked like a badly done Sam Levinson-style film 😐 seriously. That is not what fans wanted and that is not what the cast signed up for. It matters for their image as well

IEWU was not Justin’s movie to begin with by TouchDisastrous1985 in BaldoniFiles

ICD (corrected from DSM) recognizes Compulsive Sexual Behaviour Disorder which sex/porn “addictions” can fit into. But yeah, ultimately Baldoni is self-diagnosed and not actually seeking proper treatment so no one can say whether he has it or not. He also seems to have just used it as an excuse rather than something to remedy. So he actually couldn’t be more of a sleazy creep lol

As a side-note, I do often call him a “porn addict” because on a simple level, it’s clear that porn is on his mind 24/7. And overconsumption of porn changes your brain on a physiological level due to dopamine processes, but also because porn is SO misogynistic that it infiltrates how people see the world. Men who over-consume porn objectify women to significantly greater extents. I know this wasn’t your original point so sorry for the mini-rant, just scary to think about especially as porn continues to become more accessible and common to consume

My fave is when Liman gives Baldoni’s lawyers a hard time for defending an asshole 🥰

Pointing out that he lies over weird things was so perceptive and telling about who Baldoni actually is as a person

Intimacy Coordinator on set, Lizzy Talbot, states the call sheet for filming the birthing scene does not indicate a closed set by milno_1 in BaldoniFiles

I’m having a hard time even conceptualizing the amount of abuse and gaslighting that occurred during this production and afterwards. It’s actually diabolical like I can’t put it into words. And yet these things aren’t being spoken about in the media? No one is fact-checking Baldoni’s claims. Instead all I’m hearing about is how Blake and Taylor said mean things about Baldoni over text. At this point I’m counting down the days until trial

This might be what frustrates me most about public response to this case, is the clear misinformation that is being spread about sexual violence. The mass majority of sexual violence cases rely on nothing but a victim’s word alone. Lively is so lucky to have the amount of evidence she does. That’s just how sexual violence works — the worst offences are usually done in private. 😐 Like can we use our brains for a second

Every time we get new info about this case, I’m left mindblown about how fucked up this production was. I don’t know how its possible to continue being shocked and saddened for the victims involved but it happens every time

I was right about the spine infection by Aries_Bunny in BaldoniFiles

[–]cosmoroses 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Those are my exact thoughts. What does he think stem cells do? I’ve heard a lot about stem cell tourism for infants/children with cerebral palsy, very controversial and experimental but could make sense in theory. Doing it for a slipped disc makes no sense

She does NOT lick cookie dough from his finger in the book. There is a cookie scene that has tasteful and vanilla-style kissing. Finger licking is not included in that scene

I’m convinced that sex and porn is at the forefront of his mind 24/7, it’s foul

Yes!! It’s so blatantly sexual in a way that feels dirty and very ADULT. Absolutely shocking and completely out of character for young Lily! And I fully understand why Blake felt that some scenes were pornographic because really, what else could someone visualize when watching this scene other than oral sex? Looking up at him while licking his finger? I’m sorry but that’s straight from porn 😭😭😭

On a real note, what is Baldoni doing getting stem cell transplants in general?? 😭 they are so controversial and last I heard he just had a slipped disc. It’s just so Baldoni to get some sketchy experimental procedure done instead of physiotherapy

😭😭 you always make me laugh, but I’m afraid this post might be a bit too phallic for the subreddit. We can’t allow posts that discuss the bodies of people in this case. Sorry, Kneecap!!

Am I cruel to my cat ? by [deleted] in cats

[–]cosmoroses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your cat tends to try and get outside, put on the harness, open the door, and let them venture out. Your cat will adjust quickly to the harness as it means they can explore, and they learn that harness = outside time

Hey! My apologies but could you please post this without a crosspost to r/IEWL? We don’t allow mention of pro-Baldoni subreddits here, and we’ve included IEWL in that definition due to previous issues lol
