30 minutes in and I have had to

30 minutes in and I have had to switch off. Sounded like a good idea but was boring AF. Switched off when one of the "experts" reeled off about 10 different types of influencers. Yes, we know that already. Hard to believe a good subject like this could be such a bore fest.

This was a very entertaining and up-to-the-minute take

This was a very entertaining and up-to-the-minute take on the Influencer Phenomenon but I have read some critiques of it which made me think twice about the seeming disdain the filmmakers has for Influencers.

This would be akin to doing a movie

This would be akin to doing a movie on people who went on to become policemen, firemen and astronauts in the 1980s -- and we've seen how that turned out. Nick Bilton has some things to say about influencers and, as a nearing-60-year-old man who is completely unaffected by these people (directly, anyway) I learned some things. Most importantly, I think Bilton did, too.
