👩🏻 "How are my reviews?"
🤡 "They are big, beautiful, great reviews, Melania. Everyone places you as number one. Terrific reviews. Plus, many like that they get an entire cinema to themselves for the price of just one ticket. It is like a gold ticket. A Trump ticket. The likes of which you've never seen! It's amazing. And terrific. And great." 👐
@randahl And cue the DOJ investigation of Rotten Tomatoes in 3 . . . 2 . . . 1 . . .
The near-universal pans from professional film critics on the RT "Melania" page (6% at the time I'm writing this) are certainly satisfying, but they make an interesting counterpoint to the unanimous raves in the "audience reviews" section. It looks like everybody who willingly chose to go see this movie loved it, and everybody who saw it because seeing movies is part of their job hated it. Kind of makes you think that the only people buying tickets are the ones who already thought that the Trump family could do no wrong; same idiots who dutifully opened up their wallets to buy Melania meme coins and Trump trading cards, in other words.
@randahl
Melania who?
I really don't care, do you?
@randahl Like a metaphor for LLMs: Techlord spends a fortune on something no one wants.
@randahl One of two options:
1) Melania demanded that this hagiography movie be made or she would tell all
2) They are trying to sell the «hardly ever seen in public» first lady as some sort of Eva «Evita» Peron except the latter actually had some followers in Argentina.
Can someone open the window , please ??
The best one I’ve seen so far was from Variety..
If this was shown during an commercial air flight, people would still walk out
