It can be, because it was probably in 6 theatres and notice it was also available on demand. Limited release in the US means less than 200 theatres. UK would be substantially less.

They probably released it in such a limited fashion to satisfy a contract or regulation. There's a movie called Zyzzx Road that took $30* at the US box office, because they needed to release it to stay good with the Screen Actors Guild. They only showed it at one cinema, at midday, on a Thursday, and charged $5 a ticket.


*It took $30 but two of those tickets were bought by the makeup artist and a friend of hers, and one of the actors refunded them out of his own pocket.

Dutch, so it's "pisbak". "Bak" as a noun can be understood here as "box", made out of plastic or steel. (cardboard boxes are called "doos").

There is also a term "pisbakkenstaal" which is used to refer to cheap flimsy metal plating.

I've seen this clip many times and the woman's total absence of upper-body strength always amazes me. Like the rope swing doesn't even slow her down or change her trajectory at all, just *blam* straight into the ground.

article posted:

This is not the first time Nivea has attracted controversy with its marketing campaigns.

In 2011, an ad for "Nivea for Men" products came under fire for depicting a clean-shaven black man holding a disembodied head with an Afro — presumably his former self — and getting ready to toss it away.

The slogan on that ad? "RE-CIVILIZE YOURSELF."

Adweek noted there was a corresponding "Nivea for Men" ad that showed a white man holding his own disembodied head, but that one didn't include the "re-civilize yourself" slogan. Outrage over the campaign forced Nivea to publicly apologize on its Facebook page.

Advertising people are idiots.
Nobody focus tests ads unless the ad agency preselects a heavily biased sample to get the outcome they want so the client buys into it.
Source: I have worked in advertising for over 10 years.

Also the show Madmen is the worst thing to happen to advertising because it encourages people working in it to get high off their own farts even more.

Steve Bannon removed from National Security Council

Haha, get hosed you immutable poo poo stain.

quote:

President Trump on Wednesday removed controversial White House chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon from the National Security Council, part of a sweeping staff reshuffling that elevated key military and intelligence officials to greater roles on the council and left Bannon far less involved in shaping the administration’s day-to-day national security policy.

Good. Motherfucker had no business there in the first place. Back to Breitbart's bullshit, Steve :byewhore:

This is a good one. Bannon put out a statement claiming that he was only on it to "keep an eye on Flynn" and "de-operationalize" the council from the influence of The Sinister Susan Rice, and now Mission Accomplished and he's stepping down, because he didn't even want those stupid grapes anyway. Meanwhile, there's chatter, even on Fox, that Trump did it and/or let it happen because he was pissy about all the President Bannon jokes.

The story that's been going around since last night is that General McMaster went to Trump and basically said get this guy the F out of my face, he has no business being on the Security Council. McMaster actually has a decent amount of leverage when you think about it, if Trump were to lose two National Security Advisors within a few months that would be a pretty bad look. He can threaten to resign and Trump might be forced to side with him.

On Tuesday, ICE agents grabbed the husband in the middle of the night and shipped him to Mexico.
