The social network is the same movie.

Side note, that trailer for the founder is shit. Spoils the entire movie.

>Spoils the entire movie
Well it's based on real events so it can't really be spoiled

Nahhhhh. Besides the different story the atmosphere is completely different.

Well, considering they basically point to a Jew as to why McDonalds took off, and that without the Jew, the "founder" was basically bankrupt due to his own inadequacies, ya, I'd say it is a fairly decent film representing business.

>it's a businessman Jews his business partner episode

No thanks. These types of people need to be gassed

Explain how he Jewed his business partners by making them filthy rich entirely on his own effort.

It was fairly disturbing to realize that McD became what it was through land grabbing and not innovation, as the beginning of the movie specifically tries to impart you with the idea that the real value was the speedy system or whatever.

>land grabbing and not innovation

I'd say it is a little bit of both. That is, without the innovation, McDonalds itself wouldn't be around today, but that the land grabbing/aggressive expansion techniques are characteristic of any national/international franchise business.

So ultimately, if McDonalds didn't expand like they did, some other large fast food franchise would have adopted all of their innovations and made it nearly impossible for them to expand like they did because someone else would have stolen everything that made them unique.

It's why it's hard for any small business to take off and "make it big". As soon as the big players in that industry find out about your success, they will steal/buy whatever you have and make it their own.

>by making them filthy rich

They were as happy as they could be with the outcome. Sure, the money is great, but they never wanted their hard earned business to go that route and so they are left feeling like they lost. They knew the kind of expansion he was pushing wasn't possible without outside investors, and they knew this would ultimately end up in their business being corrupted by outside influences that feel like they have a say because they own a share.

>greentexting the spoiler
You son of a bitch.

Watchig a screener right now, 1:14 minutes in, jesus christ what a blad borefest. It's like reading the wikipedia page. Not a single sparkle of creativity.

>spoiler

Hardly. This isn't a completely fictional story, so sorry if you expected otherwise.

>Not a single sparkle of creativity
>in a movie about how a guy stole the idea for McDonald's and helped create an American monoculture

I have to wonder if this was intentional.

This.

The first 2/3's of the movie are basically building the character of the "founder". The purpose is too show how the prototypical big business "Shark" is created. They usually start out with good intentions, and when the switch is flipped (when they realize they have the power over everyone) they use those past good intentions to justify their current self. They deep down believe they are still in the right and that everyone else just doesn't have the same determination to succeed as they do.

>They deep down believe they are still in the right and that everyone else just doesn't have the same determination to succeed as they do.
I believe in this instance the shark is able to prove these things though.

These people don't succeed by accident.

>These people don't succeed by accident.
No, but in his case, he only succeeded because a helpful Jew showed him the correct path. He was driving that expansion into bankruptcy because he had no idea what he was doing. So pure determination is not really all it takes, it also requires an understanding of the laws surrounding finance and capital to back it up.

I can only assume that his financial helper(s) ended up making a substancial amount more than he did.

do not defend this shit. trailers need to be better.

This, just cause it's historical doesn't mean everybody knows the exact details of the McBusiness.

A similarity between this and Wolf on Walstreet. The naggy doubting wife gets left in the dust and it feels good to watch.
