Marquee joke prompts Amazon to pull Melania screenings in Lake Oswego

A Lake Oswego theater canceled screenings of the Melania documentary after Amazon objected to a marquee joke based on a Sun Tzu quote. The theater had promoted the film with the line “TO DEFEAT YOUR ENEMY, YOU MUST KNOW THEM. MELANIA STARTS FRIDAY,” which Amazon reportedly did not find funny. The marquee was later updated with a different joke about the screenings being canceled. The documentary, which cost about $40 million for rights and roughly $35 million for marketing and debuted with about $7 million in ticket sales, will still stream on Prime Video after its theatrical run, and the theater plans to resume with other films next week.

The Surging Trend of Early-Onset Colorectal Cancer: Symptoms and Screenings Explained

Colorectal cancer, typically associated with older adults, is increasingly being diagnosed in people under 40. Symptoms such as bleeding, bloody stool, stomachaches, fatigue, and weight loss should not be ignored, even in younger individuals. While current guidelines recommend colonoscopies at age 45 for those at average risk, individuals with a family history, obesity, or sedentary lifestyle may be at higher risk. Younger patients may need to consider earlier screenings or alternative tests, such as stool DNA tests, to detect blood in the stool. It is important to be proactive about one's health and push for answers if something feels off.
