The loss of the theatrical rights is attributed to the Lake Theater’s marquee messages for the documentary. These included: “DOES MELANIA WEAR PRADA? FIND OUT FRIDAY!” and “TO DEFEAT YOUR ENEMY. YOU MUST KNOW THEM. MELANIA.”
Really not funny, offensive, or even interesting, but I guess that’s enough these days.
The Prada one is mildly clever, implying Melania is the devil.
I kinda like the second one, about defeating them you must know them.
Welcome to Sun Tzu Theater.
Yeah. I don’t wear Prada.
False economy.

The jokes that made the snowflakes angry:
These included: “DOES MELANIA WEAR PRADA? FIND OUT FRIDAY!” and “TO DEFEAT YOUR ENEMY. YOU MUST KNOW THEM. MELANIA.”
Not a single ticket sale was lost
Sounds like they did it for the lols, made light fun of it in their promo material, and Amazon pulled the licensing.
“Mostly, I thought doing so would be funny. For some of you, that’s enough. Great! Otherwise… Financially, the film marketplace this week and next were a desert… So, to fill a screen, why not get this inexplicable vanity piece from the current president’s wife? I mean, it just seems so weird that it even exists (who wants a movie about Melania lol?), and wouldn’t it then be exponentially weirder, to the point of being funny, to show it here, at your obviously anti-establishment, occasionally troublemaking, neighborhood cinema?” Perry wrote.
Nice
Theatre Owner: Oh thank fuck.
Is it a cinema, or theatre? I am confused. I thought it was a movie.
And nothing of any value was lost.
Oof. Lost out on a whole $30 in revenue.
They’ll never financially recover from this.
Well boys, looks like we have ourselves an optomist!
portland for anyone else that has a lake oswego in their area. did not realize how popular a name that was.
What state is that in?
Oregon.
Its a wealthy suburb of Portland just FYI.
oh no, they will lose tens of dollars.
Hope they gonna stop showing every Amazon production in the future like James Bond
My take is the theatre owner was screening the film primarily for mockery purposes?
Yup the general manager stated they did it for the lols
They should replace it with a screening of 1984.
Is Barbra Streisand involved?
