Deconstruct There Will Be Blood, or any other movie:
Eyes Wide Shut – The Game:
Hey Ben,
Possible interesting topic for you. Is the “bullshit about to hit the fan” re facebook ads, over exaggerated “view counts” etc. The average view “count” is 1.7 secs and a lot of marketers/businesses don’t know that. It reminds me a lot of the Big Short film, whereby the digital companies know they’re over selling product, but it’s the little businesses who keep buying all the ‘sponsored posts’ etc. while the big guys like P&G pull out of the market. Meanwhile WPP is down 15%, or by over a quarter in the past year.
Extreme but good article:

It’s tempting, but Bob has covered it so well I’d just be retreading it.
But I agree we’re teetering on the brink of something very fucked.
And thanks for the excellent cartoon!
