Now that you have seen this movie...

The two brothers who got screwed! Then I felt like a cheeseburger so I got one.

I'm thinking of how far away the menu has gone from the original concept. Way too many options. I mean build your own burgers here in Australia? Can't get much further away from the speedee system than that.

... ambivalence, I suppose. I appreciate the genius of the brothers' original creation and to some extent of Kroc's expansion, but I do feel badly for the brothers—the real founders, in a sense—and their virtual annihilation.

Inflation. I was shocked to see that a hamburger at McDonald's was like 10 or 15 cents each! Now it's like almost a dollar and much smaller in size.

Those brothers got screwed.

Burger King is better.

Forget Ray Kroc. Michael Keaton's a VULTURE in "SpiderMan:Homecoming":

Tbh I haven't eaten at Maccas for at least 4 years now due to my inexplicable poor digestive health. But, I do miss the freedom I had in the past to eat there or some other fast food joint whenever I was out and about.

Having watched The Founder last night though I was just appalled by Kroc's poor character. If this film is true to life then he was a sordid covetous man—His lying, thieving, adulterous ways left a very bad taste in my mouth. I felt sorry for Ethel Kroc and the McDonald bros. who were tossed aside like garbage all for Kroc's rabidly cold and unconscionable ambition. I guess it's true that, "Ambition knows no father," nor any loyalty whatsoever. Kroc may have had persistence, but he was a man of unscrupulous morals.

I always think of the burgers I use to enjoy from there. I occasionally remember the song in the old Big Mac commercial....

Two all beef patties,
Special sauce,
Lettuce, cheese,
Pickles, onions
On a sesame bun!

You have to sing it fast!

As for the story of the brothers and Kroc, I think it's an interesting one. Every business began somewhere, and to go nation wide, it had to evolve.
I just saw this movie for the first time the other day. Very good! Entertaining!
I haven't been to a McDonalds in nearly 10 years even though there is one just 5 blocks from where I live. I may just get me a cheeseburger one of these days... see how long it takes.... see if it's as good as it use to be. Smile.
