Or we could free Luigi, and get the real thing!
This is why I now advocate for a Mamdani/Mangione 2028 presidential ticket.
I know he can’t run for president right now but, maybe we can break the rules for the benefit of the people some day.
I mean…yes?
I’d vote for that.
That’s crazy, Americans would never vote in someone accused of such serious crimes right? A suspected felon could never be in the White House, that would be unthinkable!
/s
We may need to rewrite the constitution before this is all over anyway.
This would go so hard
But Luigi is innocent
Luigis Mansion: A TV show about a mansion filled with kidnapped billionaires. Sprinkle some inspiration from the Saw movies on top, and we’ve got a hit.
I’d fuckin watch that.
That’s a good idea for a ‘dystopian’ thriller book
Current world record holder on the highscore
No I believe that title goes to Mao or Lenin
Single HVT ;)
And also title the show “Luigi”
I’d watch this show.
Oh, right. A show. Of course.
Right, and that will happen because TV shows aren’t produced by billionaire-owned media corporations.
Try to make it on VEO3 and Google will come back saying it’s against the TOS.
Make anything else on the exact same basis except sub out rich people for anybody else… allowed!
But Cops is currently on it’s 37th season.
Wasn’t that cancelled?
the show was later picked up by Fox Nation, a streaming service from Fox News Media, and the 33rd season premiered on October 1, 2021
Ah. On-brand for them.

The rookie was the most blatant example for me and i was incredibly disappointed , because i like Nathan Fillion.
I heard it got less bootlicky later on but i never made it that far.
Star Wars: Andor is made and produced by fucking Disney. Squid Games was produced by Netflix.
Never underestimate the ability of capitalism to commodify anything and everything, even the dissent of the system.
True, capitalism commodifies everything, but it always has a doublethink view of dissent and rebellion. They’re okay as long as the bad guys are a clearly evil empire (as in Star Wars) but not if it’s the US or conventional culture in general. I mean, Disney isn’t gonna mek a series about the adventures of the Black Panthers unless it alreadty has an established swag market.
First 2 seasons of Arrow were like this. But yes I would watch the shit out of it. Make it a law and order style straight from the headlines and make the rich people resemble real life rich people.
Loved the first seasons of Arrow. The crossover episodes with Flash were great.
'You failed this city!"
Go all out and get Dick Wolf behind this. “Law and Order: Vigilante Justice” where the cops are all inept but there is a dedicated team of New Yorkers working together to bring justice to the streets of America.
Call it the Super Mario Super Show
The first 2 seasons of Arrow were so damn good.
The protagonist was a rich guy too. A more socially conscious one, but still a rich guy.
Well you got to have resources im fine with rich on rich violence maybe we could put it into an arena of some sort.
Oh, a TV show. I thought you meant for real. Also, isn’t ’evil rich’ kind of redundant?
The news is on TV im not very picky
Ya, like any major media company would go anywhere near that. Great idea though. It would get dynamite ratings.
It would though, and that was why Luigi was such a danger to them. Ultimately they will keep writing stories that people keep clicking on and or reading. Even during Trump’s initial run for president there were journalists to express that they love the fact that Trump was running because people would always read the articles about him. He was sensational.
Then the day came where Luigi committed justified self-defense on a public New York street. I bet there are more journalists that would rather be printing non-stop stories about Luigi because people would rather read them, as opposed to some dumb shit Trump is doing.
So don’t pitch it to a major media company. YouTube stars are born every day.
There should be a Poison Ivy movie of basically that.
They already made one. His catchphrase was “You have failed this city”.
He as straight as an Arrow
Mr robot came close i suppose.
Honestly it has a lot of anti-late-stage-capitalism ideas but the core of the show isn’t even really about that. It’s a very good show, I’d recommend it to anyone.
You’re making a show about killing money men. Good luck convincing the money men to fund it. And that’s how it works.
Otoh, making video is pretty cheap these days.
The issue is hosting. YouTube would never allow that, and other platforms are too small.
Neo Ranga is an old anime about how the Yakuza fund politicians. Guess what else the Yakuza fund? You could tell that anime had no budget.
Even if you did find some way to fund and produce it, what corporate media empire is going to allow it on their network where more than a handful of people would ever see it?
Put it on Amazon Prime! With ads!
Lots of ads. More than YouTube’s amount of ads.
You mean a hero? That goes around defeating evil who would rather spend billions to ruin humanity instead of millions to improve it?
I think the word your looking for is hero
“evil rich people”
There’s no such thing as an innocent billionaire
It’d be incredibly unrealistic to have them have any degree of success given the ease of determining their motive and potential targets, and the sheer amount of resources the police would undoubtedly throw at finding someone who was killing oligarchs.
Leverage was kinda like this but they didn’t kill them
Call him Luigi
