Ja Rule is back at it again. The swindled, bamboozled rapper has announced that he plans to give Fyre Festival another go, despite his first effort being the most colossal flop in history.

I see he still has trouble with the English language.

Then the next round of millenial dumbasses to hand him $$$ can try to sue for $10 mill each vs $5.

Watched the Netflix doc last night. I don't have Hulu so I can't compare them, but I enjoyed it for what it was.

All I can think of now is that The Office needs to somehow make an episode or movie special where Michael Scott buys tickets for everyone instead of giving out their Christmas bonuses or with the budget surplus. Could be an amazing combination of the booze cruise, survivor man, dinner party, and company picnic episodes.

Praying for a Fyre v2.0

A well-planned and well-run Fyre Fest 2.0 would probably be a huge success

It actually would. If a group who knew what they were doing had ample time and funding to do this, it could be a huge hit. Fyre Fest is so talked about right now, it would be easy to capitalize. They would never be able to do the ridiculous Instagram/luxury crap that Billy and Ja were promising, but you could put on a good music festival in a tropical setting with the right planning and infrastructure. Think Hangout Fest but in the Caribbean.

Wouldn't be surprised if it or some other iteration does come out of this.

Not if anyone that was associated with this one had their named attached to it.

Agree 100%. Nobody from the previous regime could be involved. But if Coachella or C3 (ACL Producers) did it, it could be done and be a big hit.

what about "Fyre Fest tix for Tots" where Michael tries to make amends by buying Fyre Fest tickets for all the kids he screwed over on his college scholarship promises.

I would pay to help produce that.

If the documentary taught us anything, it's that putting on the festival of this scale in a remote place with little to no existing infrastructure isnt cost effective.

So far I have "The Office Goes To Fyre" or just "The Office: Fyre"

-once there Michael doesn't realize it's a crap shoot and is walking around with printed pictures of the "influencers" looking for them

-Jim and Pam set up office olympics/ casino night type games trying to stay safe inside a tent

-Kelly convinces people she's a Kardashian and gets to stay on a yacht or one of the beach houses

-Dwight goes full survivor man and catches fish with his bare hands, builds a fire on the beach and sells them to the starving attendees

-Angela sneaks her cats in because she can't leave them at home. The cats tear up the mattress/tents.

-Kevin and Darryl take the stage pretending to be an opening act

-Stanley sits on the beach the whole time doing crossword puzzles

Sure, but a Fyre Fest 2.0 that's held in a place with much better existing infrastructure would do well. The name recognition alone would sell a lot of tickets.

If I were in my 20s, I'd buy at ticket and hope for the worst but expect a mediocre festival with decent festival sloots to hook up with

It taught me that:

- There are "internet influencers"
- There are idiots that listen to them

How could I forget Creed?

He gets separated from the group at the airport, misses the bus to the festival and then steals a box truck that has the keys in it. When he pulls up to the gates he finds that it's loaded up with loaves of bread and slices of kraft singles and sells it to Billy.

I enjoyed it at first but then when Michael went from being good natured embodiment of the Peter principle to high functioning autistic special needs person I stopped watching.

Don't forget they all get there and Ryan is actually the mind behind Frye fest (with goatee). He used woof to spread the influencers message.
