Amazon Pulls ‘Melania’ From Oregon Movie Theater in Response to Marquee Jokes The Lake Theater & Café in Lake Oswego, Oregon will no longer screen Amazon documentary "Melania," after Amazon pulled the film from the venue.

I'm at Lake Theater right now for HOPPERS, billed on the marquee as "Operation Epic Furry". And the pre-show is a retro documentary about beavers.

I've got to make it out here more often.

As a general rule, a trailer only shows you the movie the studio wishes they had.

Which would make the new SCARY MOVIE trailer even more bewildering and spiteful.

Letting Paramount win the WBD bidding war feels like giving the toddler the sweets he threw a tantrum over.

We got hit with a flood of new releases in early February. Luckily, it's early enough in the year that the ones I can't get around to now will be out on DVD by the end of the year.

Netflix and Disney might be getting all the headlines, but they won't be the first ones to make a feature film entirely by generative AI. It'll be someone like Hallmark or The Asylum -- who's watching those stupid lazy bastards?

Disney president Dana Walden: "We have to improve profits generated from Disney+ and incorporate AI into movie production." Brooks: "It is our civic duty to ensure the first theatrically released AI movie is a financial failure."

Not just a financial failure, but a HISTORIC failure. A "Leonard Part 6" failure. A "War of the Worlds (2025)" failure. A "The Flash" failure.

This has to be a legendary failure. A laughingstock for the history books. Such a cataclysmic humiliation that executives are shamed into losing their jobs.

I'm cry laughing from embarrassment

Dracula (2025) Intriguing

DRACULA (2025)

Neil Gaiman is especially shameless for crawling out of hiding at this particular moment.

did he overhear us talking about predators & think we were summoning him by name?

Not that any of this matters. I'm sure Amazon and the First Family are crying all the way to the bank. Amazon bought their political influence, 45 and his family got their money, and nobody's reputation or career (certainly not Brett Ratner's) is any worse off than it was before. /End

And sure, Melania made the weekend for a non-musical documentary in history. Quick, name another non-musical documentary. And remember that March of the Penguins was 20 freaking years ago. /3

Iron Lung cost $3 million to produce and it's already made $3.5 million this weekend. Melania somehow cost upwards of $40 million and it made back $7 million worldwide. That's outright disgraceful. /2

Melania (the film) came in at #3 this weekend. Which sounds impressive, until you hear the second-highest grossing film of the weekend was an indie horror game adaptation, written/produced/directed by a YouTuber making his feature debut with no studio support whatsoever. /1

The person to watch is David Rubenstein, who has poured millions in philanthropy into the Kennedy Center, is not going to be pleased about this, and has money, ego, and patriotism long enough to sustain a long-ass legal battle.

Particularly since his cash isn't crypto.
