As much as I liked JenM, I don't think she has the leadership qualities at the level Trump requires for his "apprentice".

I liked her low key handling of bossy Kristi... but Jen doesn't really see the whole picture. I could definitely work for Jen, but I wouldn't want her running my company.

I wouldn't want to deal with Kristi on any level...

Maria and Wes were fired together, if I remember correctly.

Eeyore- I think your right about Maria and Wes. Seems to me they didn't care for each other and didn't like being in the cab together.

I didn't learn phonics and have so many problems spelling and saying words that I usually don't write or says words that I'm not familiar with. But I can say the name of the movie and it was driving me crazy that Jenn. M didn't feel the need to learn how it say it. Even after the judges said that it was important.

I agree, Bill and Carolyn's expressions after Kristi was axed were priceless, lol. I wish we could have heard what Carolyn had to say afterward, if anything. I think she felt defeated. So much for Da Donald 'having to listen to his people'

Yup, Eeyore -- remember the horrible Dove "cucumber" commercials -- one team had an "erotic" chef commercial that could never have been shown on TV and the other team had a man rubbing the soap (without water) on his face looking like it was pudding. Both teams lost a person in that one -- so if it's "totally" new, it can't be two people fired.

ETA: What if he fires a TEAM? The women have stunk, so I wonder if he just axes the whole lot of them?

Wow ~ As a Jon Favreau fan, I would have been dancing up and down just getting to be in the same room as him! Did any of these people even know who he is? I loved the expression on his face as Jen mispronounced the name over and over but in all fairness - did he tell the girl's team how important the pronunciation was? We know he did for the guys.

I grew up on phonics but when it comes to unusual words like this, I'd be asking for clarification on the pronounciation before assuming I could just sound it out. I say that because I first thought it was a word from another country/culture and not everyone on this planet pronounces things the same way that we do. However, as project manager, Jen should have found out the correct pronunciation when they were first given the task or at the very least, before the presentation. But nooooooo . . . she was off looking for red carpeting with three others from the team when the float was not even done. I guess it was going to take four people to carry it? She's not going to last.

Zathura. Pretty darn simple if you look at it. Compare it to words like neighbor or lingerie. There are a ton of "regular" words that are very hard to pronounce if you are not familiar with them. But Zathura has nothing tricky with it.

Kristi would have been fired by me the minute she pulled the "you're intimidated by me" routine. Why is it bossy controlling women can't see that they are annoying because they are bossy and controlling. Seems like too easy an excuse to use the "other women are intimidated by me" garbage. Its a tired old excuse. And just a feeble way to try and make themselves look superior to those who aren't afraid to stand up to them.

It was on the floor in front of the float.

If you don't mind spoilers there is a big discussion about that at Television Without Pity in the spoiler thread that has some interesting points.

We had fun at work tonight. The new popcorn bags advertise Zanthura so of course we were coming up with as many different ways to mispronouce it as we could.

Yes, it's very easy to pronounce when you're assuming it's an english based word.

Thanks for the tip, Calla, but I avoid "spoilers" like the plague ...ruined a perfectly good book by reading online excerpts one time and have never looked at them since. Thanks anyway. :-)

Maybe nobody gets fired.

Maybe Caroline gets fired.

Maybe Caroline is allowed to do the firing.

Right, Julie. Nothing confusing about Zathura and Zenthura. Quite simple. Maybe Charlie Rose didn't learn phonics either. David Strathairn is on the program now (recorded). Charlie is pronouncing it Stratharin. TG for phonics.

I just watched the promo.

He enteres the BR in a tux with bow tie. The next clip long blue tie, the next light tie, the last back to the bow tie. In each section he delivers a snappy line. Clearly this display was patched together from at least 3 BR sessions.

Calla, thanks. It was interesting but gave nothing away, for those who want to avoid solid information. They have some information from New Yorkers who caught parts of the filming and described who they thought they saw and where.

I think the guy's float won because of the cool low toned voice that repeated ZATHURA over and over again in a soundtracked loop.

That would be very attention grasping when the float goes down the street.

People would be able to hear it coming and anticipation would build as they wonder "what the heck is Zathura>?"

I saw an ad for this movie today. Looks like pretty good sci fi effects but seems like a young child's movie.

The author of the book that the movie is based upon is the same fella' that wrote The Polar Express...so yup, definite kid's book. However, the IMAX Polar Express was soooo good we're going to see it again (they're bringing it back for a second run! WOOHOO!)
