Oh god, if I had seen that pregnant I might have needed to be hospitalized afterwards. Pregnancy hormones make you crazy enough even at the best of times, I can’t imagine having to process this movie in that state. Hell, I could barely watch the season finale of Bojack Horseman Bc of the pregnancy/birth sadness

Saw it last night. Definitely not a movie for a new mom in the post-partum period.

I dunno, if there is a god, s/he/it doesn’t seem to be doing a damn thing to stop humans from killing each other, so...

I wish someone had done this for me — I am 9 months pregnant and could not be more angry that I was duped into seeing this “assault” on the audience (Aronofsky’s words). The imagery was so over the top and upsetting, and completely unearned by the rest of the film.

The baby scene I closed my eyes. Yuck

Read the Old Testament. God IS a fame hungry star.

To be fair, Old Testament God is a mega asshole.

THANK YOU. Seriously. I’ve probably read eight reviews of this movie and still had no clue what it was about. And every one kept alluding to something “really shocking” in the second half. I have a kid and seriously cannot deal with stuff like the imagery you described, so genuine thanks for saving me $12 Bc I

100% full agreement here. I want to forget I saw this garbage heap.

Ok. Fuck Daren Aronofsky for this wankfest male privilege masturbatory bullshit of a movie.

What makes this shitstain even worse is that there is a good horror film to be made from this material - but this isn’t it.

It sucks so bad I am astonished anyone greenlit it in 2017. And I’m really pissed off that Jennifer

. . . ALL before he has time to think. Work fast.

Are we certain of that? She told him he couldn’t ever talk to someone again, that’s no way to go into a relationship. You can’t blame “all him” when the first thing she did was start banning him from talking to people he knew before. And we don’t know what has been said, it could be that simply staying in contact

You are right, I should not have maligned all women with my comment. I do feel like “You can never talk to her again” is a sentiment that almost exclusively comes from straight women, but I could very well be wrong and even if I am not it was wrong to say it.

Maintaining a strictly email relationship with someone is not an affair. Unless you are having sex with someone you are not having an affair.

Yup. “Staying together/forgiving your partner’s crimes for the kids” is just a recipe for kids who grow up weird because they were born in soil poisoned with the tension and anger that you totally were putting out there even though you swear you totally weren’t.

Why is THIS woman like this.

She should never have demanded he never speak to her again.

What is she doing going through his email? Why does she have the right to say “you can’t speak to a woman you shared one kiss with?” And WTF why are women like this?

Which is possible if you have the Jolie money and resources.

That all sounds great in theory, but post-partum, new baby, and all the stress that goes along with that - mentally and physically, make it a daunting task. I think the six months suggestion is right on, if only to do all of those things in the meantime.
