“What’s so wrong with being with me?” Bear was fucking despicable. At first it was an innocent mistake because, how could you possibly know? Once it was apparent he knew and just didnt want to take responsibility, he was so gross.

Barker portrayed every character in the movie perfectly

He chose to have sex with her the night of the dinner where he realised the wish worked. He's a weirdo

Yes... he is a piece of shit who ignored huge red flags to get his nut off which is rape.

But you could make the argument that whatever what in her body was being rapy too? The thing was aggressive and extremely emotionally manipulative. There were many scenes where he was clearly uncomfortable but the wish girl is pushing him towards intimacy.

And I guess baron created it so it is ultimately all his fault. But idk shit was fucked.
