Apple tells moviemakers that villains can’t use iPhones, Rian Johnson says
- olliej 7y agoI assume they all use Nokia 5110s, because what villain would risk a destructible phone?
- wodenokoto 7y agoThen why give anyone an iPhone? I find it weird that Hollywood haven’t designed a generic laptop and smartphone for movies. These items really dates a movie.
- rasz 7y ago>Then why give anyone an iPhone? Because apple paid you 1% of entire budget just for product placement.
- Tsiklon 7y agoBy the sounds of things this is only if Apple provide the phone to the filmmakers as part of a promotional consideration. From the perspective of cultivating an image around their brand this makes sense to build this sort of clause into any contract
- shirshak55 7y agohaha c'mon boys its apple
- grawprog 7y agoFor some reason this now really makes me hope for a James bond-esque movie where the villain specifically uses only Apple products for their nefarious schemes and is defeated by a hero wielding a pinephone and a linux computer or something.
