The Flamin Hot Cheetos Movie

Basically its going to be Good Will Hunting but for snacks instead of some kids movie starring Chester the Cheetah.

I�m having a hard time imagining people getting off their rear end to go out and see a movie about loving Cheetos though.

http://variety.com/2018/film/news/flamin-hot-cheetos-movie-devon-franklin-fox-searchlight-1202707879/amp/

quote:

Fox Searchlight and DeVon Franklin are set to produce the film �Flamin� Hot,� which will tell the true story of Richard Montanez, who rose from humble beginnings to a successful businessman when he created a food phenomenon � Flamin� Hot Cheetos.

Fox Searchlight nabbed the project in what was a highly competitive sale, with multiple studios vying for the project.

The film follows Montanez, the son of an immigrant, who grew up as a migrant farm worker picking grapes in the fields of Southern California before becoming a janitor at Frito-Lay. It was while working at the company that Montanez came up with the idea to create Flamin� Hot Cheetos, transforming the Frito-Lay brand into a pop culture phenomenon and disrupting the entire food industry in the process. Now commonly referred to as the Godfather of Multicultural Marketing, it was that initial idea that would spark a billion-dollar brand and catapult him from janitor to elite corporate executive.

Franklin will produce the project through his Franklin Entertainment shingle. Lewis Colick will pen the script from the initial pitch, which he and Franklin developed with Montanez. Samuel Rodriguez will executive produce.

Anikah McLaren and Taylor Friedman will oversee for the studio.

Franklin, who has a first-look film deal with 20th Century Fox, is also currently in pre-production on �The Impossible� for Fox 2000 with �This Is Us� actress Chrissy Metz set to star.

So it's a vanity project for some rich dude to show how he totally worked his way up from nothing? What are the odds of a not so subtle "well i bootstrapped myself so cheetos factories don't need minimum wage" message?

If those Cheetos were millions of acres of grassland in West Africa's Sahel region, they'd be turning into desert right now.

If those Cheetos were spilled McDonald's coffee, they'd give that old lady so much nerve damage.

Confirmed. Also, they burn your rear end in a top hat something fierce when it gets to that level. Just to level set, I'm an 800lb shut-in.

My fiance works is a pediatrician at the indigent-care hospital in town and parents come in EVERY WEEK (if not day) with their child complaining of blood in their stool and a violent stomach ache. Her first question is always "do they eat flaming hot Cheetos?" and the answer is invariably yes. It turns out that blood in your stool: (1) does not turn your poo bright red, but rather a deep crimson-black; and (2) gives off a VERY distinctive smell of copper. Parents are always indignant when she tells them to stop feeding their child garbage food (she says it in a much nicer way, I'm sure; her bedside manner is top notch iykwim :smuggo:
