Though a professional word person, I am not a screenwriter, so it is with a ton of hubris and no little self-promotion that I say here Jerry completely missed an inherently hilarious story from the exact same period that would make for a far funnier movie than UNFROSTED (which I am watching right now; it's amusing enough but feels like it's missing a certain energy—like they committed to the bit but over-committing to the bit would make for way more laughs per scene).
Yeah, to me, the way to make this movie work would be to make it, essentially, a parody of "Air" or "Blackberry" or that Facebook movie. Use the genre of "inspirational business story" to parody the insanity of consumerist culture.

"self-promotion" - I wrote the article. And I still love that insane story.
