Lake Oswego theater loses rights to screen ‘Melania’ after marquee jokes
-
Its a wealthy suburb of Portland just FYI.
-
Lake Oswego is a rich conservative white woman sanctuary just west of Portland.
I'm not buying that this theater owner was playing the movie as a joke.
Just because the residents are wealthy, white, Conservative women doesn't mean the theater owner or the person who put up the marquee is too.

My take is the theatre owner was screening the film primarily for mockery purposes?

Shop Like a Billionaire and import one made overseas. Like a mail order bride of success, because you're a total badass theater owner. Hugely.

I love this theatre - it's a mini Draft House and it is awesome.

Yeah. I don't wear Prada.
False economy. -
Is it a cinema, or theatre? I am confused. I thought it was a movie.
-
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!

So they lost the right to have several empty theaters? And they consider that a bad thing?

Frees up the screen for something useful. Like a stream of paint drying.
Ooh, hopefully the plot of the drying paint is vocalised at least three times an hour so I can watch on my phone.

It made several times its budget but it's still a tiny amount compared to blockbusters

There's a theatre near me that posts political messages. I wonder if they'd do one about that shitty docu if I sent them this.
