F1 Movie Now Out, In Case You Missed Apple's Ads All Over Your iPhone

‘To celebrate the release of F1, we’ve changed everyone’s Lock Screen and wallpaper to a complementary set featuring Brad Pitt and the thrills and skills of the racetrack.

And that’s not all - every iPhone user will also find an app that we’ve placed on their Home Screen where they can explore the movie featuring exclusive video interviews with the cast and crew, behind the scenes photos and so much more!’

Overrated. We went to watch it at the IMAX yesterday. I don't know what all the fuss was about.

Apple is spending a lot of money to craft a reputation of being good at tv/movies.

For example, whenever I hear A24 has something new, I check it out, because of the reputation/track record they've built. That 'in' is priceless and drastically reduces the effort needed to get people to watch your stuff. Usually the filmmaker is the one with that power, but Apple wouldn't want that kind of dependency.

I imagine once Apple has a few film hits/awards under their belt and feel that that reputation has been established, they'll relax a bit.

I don't know why they did Wallet App notification when there's a TV+ app, would have made way more sense...

Brad probably can’t even drive his own car - hard pass. You wanna see a good movie about F1, watch Senna.

Let’s all contribute to sending ATV+ where it belongs: the dustbin of failed Tim Spindler ventures.

Brad Pitt actually trained for months and drove in this film. That's kinda well-known, so that's a weird thing to lie about. And the movie just had a $144M opening, so good luck on your quest to end ATV+. Meanwhile, the rest of the world will enjoy things like Severance.
