Garfield Eats crashed and burned. There's a dozen youtubers who have all done dives on it, and even eaten the food. However, as a rich, out of touch manchild Nathan Mazri will not be stopped, and has launched his newest IP: ScoobyEats, with you guessed it, Scoob Doo. Allegedly some of the lasagna being sold by the cartoon dog is the same deep frozen pre-made pasta that belonged to the cartoon cat, re-awakend from it's cryogenic slumber

Frank Frank posted:Covered in the OP. Also ScoobyEats has also already gone the way of the dodo. Sorry for your loss. Rip Hungry Cartoon dog. I guess all that is left is to dig into whatever bullshit he put into his self published "Arabiolosis". Judging from his twitter, its probably all fake-self help b.s. with a smattering of right wing bootstrap pulling. Pretty rich coming from an silverspoon heir. I kinda think this guy has it in him to give a run at being a poor man's Andrew Tate.

Pretty sure he's at least dipping his toe into some "red pill" man-o-sphere poo poo Also this: Vincent Van Goatse posted:That's Garfield. Nathen loves calling women on instagram whores in Arabic.

I see a lot of parallels between Nathan and Musk. Thank God Nathan doesn't have Musk money. But it's the same flavor of manboy obsession on top of having enough money to make really poor decisions while stil maintaining a facade of "success" and "entrepreneurship". It smells like Odie's mouth.

It's a good thing AI isn't self aware, or it would probably make fun of Nathen for his requests. This is actually a great case as to why AI articles are no substitute for the real thing, because as per Nathen's instructions: the AI thinks Egeez is: 1. Real 2. Has products to sell and 3. Has agreements with distributors and the border patrol. And it's not as if he's telling it to lie, it just can't fact check or be non-complaint. If you tell it to find the three Garfield strips that ran in 2017 where Garfield visits his best friend, Nathen at a Garfield's Eats Restaurant and INSIST those strips are real, it will fabricate them for you. And then you can get Stable Diffusion to make those Garfield strips for you.

I imagine the hypothetical journalist who may or may not have interviewed Nathen is stuck with the dilemma of knowing that almost anything the publish about him will expose how embarrassing disconnected from reality he is -OR- you can workshop the article to hell and to cover for him, but then everyone knows you're full of it. On top of that, Nathen is eagerly waiting for the article, and has your contact info. He's the kind of guy who will immediately call for a hundred changes or "corrections" because the article isn't exactly how he'd want it.

So here's how N is spending the weekend. Instead of enjoying the solar eclipse, he's ranting about how Paramount legally demanded he destroy the the failed Garfield merchandise he generated. https://twitter.com/GarfieldEATSco/status/1713381718026047611 The reason a company would ask someone to do something like this is they're afraid someone would use the stockpiles of unsold merchandise they no longer have the rights for to damage their brand, Which Nathen does with gusto: https://twitter.com/GarfieldEATSco/status/1713383361836724280 https://twitter.com/GarfieldEATSco/status/1713383779069206843 Nothing like posting a closet full of evidence that you're in breach of contract on twitter. What I wouldn't give for a copy of "Garfield's Cyber Safety Adventures" though.

Frank Frank posted:So on one side of the sign it just says, “yes, we’re open” and the other reads, “I hate Mondays”. That uh.. doesn’t necessarily effectively communicate that the place is closed, does it? Unless they're open 24 hours a day, every day, EXCEPT Monday. Which would be a great gimmick.

dr_rat posted:Lol, I'm not sure what's funnier, that Nathan is thinking literally anyone else would care that a large media company would take some extrea standardard meausres to protect it's it, That he thinks those sort of companies care at all about their IP's beyond how they can get cash from them, or that anyone else would care there is a tiny bit less Garfield merchandising in the world. gently caress Garfield is notorious for being over merchandised. I mean they do care enough to ask people to hand over their merch when something fails because of situations exactly like this this. They don't want some freak to latch onto their IP and claim they're still part of it. It's not that they specifically cared about GarfieldEATS to begin with, or even now. But they don't want people thinking this freak has any say with their IP.

His main twitter has been him taking the taking the more flattering parts of his interview and reposting them as eye-catch videos. Including the one about "someone" being on top of the pyramid of society. https://twitter.com/nathenmazri/status/1712824823120818688 Maybe he thinks this interview is giving him a boost/relevance/platform to get garf back. However, his behavior is antithetical to any brand ever.

Jim Davis has managed to milk Garfield for the entirety unnaturally long life. So much so that there are "Garfield Merchandise Buyers Guides" uploaded from VHS onto YouTube right next to their modern contemporaries. Somehow this newspaper cat has the same marketing potential as Disney and Pokemon. People know and buy garf internationally. So it's a real testimony to Nathen's incompetence that he ran his franchise into the ground. Garfield is loved ironically and non ironically by so many people. Despite newspapers being a dinosaur in a tar pit, people still know Garfield, even without reading the strips. He's still well in our collective cultural consciousness. Running a Garfield themed restaurant should have been child's play.

temple posted:To be fair, nathen seems to understand marketing, operations, and logistics. I'm not entirely sure about given the marketing and operations he's currently engaging in. And logistics was the downfall of the restaurant. Bad food, slow response rates and weird menu items (garficino). temple posted:The fact he didn't make fresh lasagna or some other novel menu shows he thought "garfield but what else? uh pizza!" He could have ran a true theme restaurant but that would require a larger investment, planning, and creativity. This is also kind of to my point. If you look at the Dubai launch, you'd think he was launching a chain the size of pizza hut. He had this pie-in-the-sky idea that he was this "entrepreneur" on the verge of commercial history. In fact, he still acts that way. If he had launched ONE North American restaurant instead of 3 internationally, and then focused on having a decent menu and to-go options, he would have done well. Covid was hard on everyone, but if -during lockup- you had told me I could have door-dashed a whole tin of Garfield branded lasagna, I would have been all over it. I wouldn't have expected amazing home-made pasta, but as long as it was passable, i would have been thrilled. As for other menu items, stick to junk food staples like burgers. Things you can make in the kitchen you've already got. Dude was just on a captalism-as-cocaine trip and did any idea that jumps into his head. And he continues to dream about absurd scale entre-manure -ship impossibilities like running his own amazon. Busters fucked around with this message at 22:57 on Oct 29, 2023 |

sharknado slashfic posted:He's right though, that Garfield trailer does look awful I dono, it just looks fluffier than usual. It's fine if movie garfield has his own look. My biggest gripe is exactly what I worried about in my first post. Chris Pratt is just talking. He's not doing a voice. He's not even really emoting much. It's just a boring white dude talking. It's like showing up to your office and hearing some generic mid 30's guy at the water cooler say "Last weekend, I was cat that ate lasagna. This Friday I'm going kayaking" with no passion for anything. Animation is fine though. If it's not going to be hand animated, then whatever 3d style is going to have to get creative to adapt to Jim Davis' weird kind of flat style.

To prove the naysayers wrong, Chris Pratt should have given Garfield a thick Italian accent. That's a valid interpretation of the character. "IT'SA ME, GARFIELD!"

To your point, a bad movie is better than a boring movie.

Frank Frank posted:It’s literally some harebrained nonsense Nathen cooked up that will never amount to anything. He’ll make some cocaine-fueled elevator pitch to a few professionals who might buy into his bullshit long enough to create the beginnings of “something” before Nathen either gets bored and wanders off or refuses to pay his employees. One of the things that makes it confusing to deal with Nathen is that he "announces" things like they already exist, fully formed. His brain is so entreprened up that the moment he has even an idea, he treats it as a finished project. And then I find myself asking obvious questions like "what is it?" And "can I see it?". Because he's so fully convinced it already exists that I sometimes believe it as well. BigBadSteve posted:I'm guesstimating it's just a rebranded frontend for the standard ChatGPT, with minimal changes. Oh boy, there's already one precedent for what happens when you ask chatGPT to find caselaw for you. I can't wait for more. Last Chance posted:Why not “Oh Gee-PT!”? To clever. Also doesn't involve eggs. Apparently this is all about eggs for some reason.

Looks like daddy cut off Nathen's allowance. He's shilling his "cameo" on both of his twitters again. It's like Fiverr for people with no skill, or Only Fans with less nudity. For just $59 you can politely beg Nathen to record something for you in one of his many suits. https://twitter.com/GarfieldEATSco/status/1726724169323233749 This one caught my eye, because 1. Imagine how limp-wristed and off target a "roast" from Nathen would be and 2. Some fortuitous ad placement.
