Buzz Words for Bonzo
INT. MOGUL’S OFFICE — CIRCA 1935 — DAY
A 50ish MOGUL is sitting at his desk.
In a puff of cliché special effects, DotComGuy, 26, appears. He’s carrying a Sony VaIO laptop in one hand and a martini in the other.
DCG
I’m DotComGuy! I’ve come from the future! In the New Economy, digital distribution will have disintermediated entertainment consumption.
MOGUL
What the hell is this crap?
DCG
We will re-monetize pop culture!
MOGUL
For crissakes, how the hell do you make money?
DCG
Those plans are still being contextualized.
MOGUL
You have no goddamn idea, do you? And what in hell is an apple slice doing in your martini?
