- Not sure why such an interest in this poor remake of "Pretty Woman". I'd rather wait for SpaceBalls 2.
- Long way from the "Think Different" era Apple. Been thinking about that campaign this week. Posters of people like MLK, which Jobs had to get permission for from each and every estate for the campaign. When Apple was solidly, unambiguously positioned as the computer for the rebels, the misfits, the crazy ones.
If nothing else, there was an opportunity to simply say that given the day's events, a movie screening didn't feel right. Or – "hey there's a gigantic winter storm covering half the country, and I have a lot of logistical stuff to take care of."

- Please, God, let Mel Brooks make one more film after Spaceballs 2.
- Boycott all these goobers.
- All I can say is remember. Remember the hypocrisy, the spineless lack of values, the willingness to engage, effectively, in corruption. That should be the permanent understanding you now have of these people.
Next time they are up on stage telling you how great their new product or service is - make sure your first thought is, the person selling me this put corruptly pandering to an authoritarian wannabe dictator ahead of their own integrity. If they have no integrity, why should I trust anything they say about this product they are now pitching to me?
- I was on a website and got a “sign Melania’s birthday card” advertisement. Super creepy.

- Adam from Adam Does Movies can't wait to do a recrap of Melania and my family is excited to see THAT.
- What could possibly be in this movie other than Melania constantly suing news outlets who ran reports she was a sex worker?
- A friendly reminder that the western world too is ruled by oligarchs and is democratic in name only.
It is time to take control over the means of production.
- Wild that this post is flagged despite explicitly being about the tech industry

- So many apologists for Tim Apple over the past year, but I think this is just who he is. Gladly embracing fascism and authoritarianism.

- On the night of Alex Pretti's execution by Border Patrol, big tech CEOs think it's a great idea to show up at the preview of the most pathetic movie in existence. This goes beyond "having to seat at the table" to change things, like Tim Cook often said. This is high level simping. I am so disgusted. These are the people y'all work for.

- It's pathetic on many levels but I cant shake the most obvious one to me, the nerds are being forced to worship the school bully and his girl
- I'm amazed that Klemen Slakonja's First Lady Melania Trump documentary made it out of Slovenia.
It's certainly a beautiful country.

- Does anybody else just tacitly hash to "melanoma" ? I'm sure it's a beautiful name in the original Slovenian context, but in the US the only time he hear it is talking about someone who is in a bunch of photographs with Epstein, so it's natural to form some negative associations.
- Oh is this the schlock they can get to play at the Trump Kennedy Center now?
