I’m not sure about that Marc Weinstein dude. He was saying all the right things in the docu about what he thought Billy should done eg. start refunding ticket holders. But was he just trying to make himself look better and save face?

Plus the fact that he let Billy use his personal credit card which ended up thousands in debt! That was just the height of stupidity.

Really enjoyed Fyre.


If you get a chance you should checkout Hulu's doc Fyre Fraud it has some interviews with Billy and isn't as favorable at all to Jerry Media for there part in the whole thing.


It should also be noted that Jerry Media were involved in making the Netflix Doc.

iirc towards the end of the doc Marc Weinstein said he looked back at all his old tweets, most of which were pictures of turquiose seas and the white sand beach of the first island. He more or less admitted that he had a role to play in promoting this false reality to sell tickets/cabanas, etc. But his explanation was more or less that he had got duped by Billy just like everyone else. I think Marc also said that Billy maxed out his credit card to the tune of $150k so he has definitely taken a hit here.

All the people working alongside Billy were kind of idealists and dreamers. They were so invested in the idea of putting on a fantastic show that would go down in history. The silvered haired guy who was gonna take one for the team was even saying that he knew the logistics were fcuked up but reasoned that no-one ever complained about those things at the original Woodstock so they got away with it, everyone just remembered Woodstock as a legendary concert and it grew from there. It showed how much he wanted it to be a success but he was actually deluded because he never mentioned that Woodstock had The Who and Jimi Hendrix head lining it whereas Fyre had bloddy Blink 182

also Woodstock wasn't just for rich "influencers".

I hated every minute of this film, and I mean that in the best way possible. Haven't seen an Irish film this good in a fair few years.

Very surprised to read that, I watched it last weekend and was very disappointed with it.

Maybe I was able to relate a little too easy to the character.

It was nominated for four Irish Film & Television Awards and won the Best Film prize, so I can't be the only one who liked it.

Just started The Good Place, it's fine so far, just wish Kirsten Bell's character didn't speak exactly the same as Leslie Knope.

It's about as funny as season one P&R but with a bit more heart, so I'm hoping it'll improve (like P&R and Brooklyn Nine Nine have)

I love the good place, I thought series 1 was excellent (it improves as it goes), series 2...even better IMO...series 3 its dipped a bit if I am being honest but still good.

The Assassination of Gianna Versace is coming in february and is excellent, well recommended.

As is Get Out; best film I've seen in a while.

Hulu also had to pay money to yer man Billy for the interview. Netflix were in talks with him but when he asked for money they pulled out - rightfully so imo as he's a scumbag.

Absolutely however watching him not answer questions and seeing him stumbling over trying to answer shows him for what he is needs to be seen for me instead of the few clips you see in the Netflix one.


Even being paid he couldn't come up with convincing lies to blame others and every answer he gave they showed it to be a lie.


For him taking the money form the team that made Hulu's helps Billy show himself to be that conman.



Also one thing I took from both Doc's backs up that old saying. A fool and his money are easily parted... Social Media makes fools a lot of people.
