We appreciate the effort Doug gave us. He went through a lot to get back. Unfortunately, it didn't work out.
We're rocking the film festival. If you've seen a movie, you've seen one of ours,
Linking without permission is stealing. Period, end of story.
Can't say no one makes money from Twitter now. The NBA does.
