General Dog posted:Rovell’s Anne Frank tweet seems not that stupid to me, adjusting for the Tweeter and the subject matter. I would go so far as to agree with the basic premise that self quarantine from a mostly non lethal virus is preferable to being a Jew hiding from sinister agents carrying out the Final Solution. you're trying way too hard here

A family of four seeing it in the evening would be saving money in that scenario. morestuff posted:The real answer is that most theater chains would refuse to screen the movie if they did that https://twitter.com/DEADLINE/status/1239620587820990464 $20 a pop.

Well there you go. Though I doubt we’d see that price point in a normal market. Also Trolls: World Tour looks viscerally unpleasant

Yeah, they can afford to make a drastic move because the market’s completely collapsed. They don’t mind if their movies get yanked from theaters because they aren’t making any money there anyway

Emma didn't open here until Friday before last and I skipped seeing it even though wanted to specifically because of the virus, so I'm in the target audience there and I'll happily pay $20 to check it out. Probably watch Invisible Man too.

I like this one: https://twitter.com/roomiecrisis/status/1240702654361128960/photo/1 The capitalization of nearly every word is driving me crazy, too. I know it's the style at some places, but every headline at Vichy Deadspin is way too long making it even worse. RC and Moon Pie fucked around with this message at 01:59 on Mar 20, 2020 |

You'd think working under an established brand, even one management already ripped to shreds, would save you the trouble of including a long parenthetical right under the headline explicitly describing the tone you're trying to achieve... but Vichy Deadspin would disagree.

The Mons Venus featuring in multiple stories is so fantastically Mid ‘90s Tampa. Also amazing that about half the league in the ten-team days stayed in the same tourist villa such that trades would happen at a party one night, and the guy would just move his bags one door down the next day.
