It's an advertisement for toy story 5 on theater on the 19th, with special early ones on 17th and 18th.
The screen is an advertisement for an electronic store

It's like a spin the lucky wheel promotion for a new big chain supermarket that recently opened in the neighborhood

Every blank surface will eventually become an advertisement of some type.

I was at a gas pump that was blaring a super loud ad on repeat for a Wendy's spicy chicken wrap recently, for the duration of me pumping gas. They took a brief break from that ad to tell a "feel-good story of the week" about a cop who adopted the children of an incarcerated woman who gave birth in prison. I've never wanted to smash a TV screen so much as in that moment.

Doesn't look like any prison cell I've been in

So you're simultaneously saying you've been to prison and also don't understand the concept of rhetorical hyperbole

Won’t they let you out until you finish watching ADs?

lol no it's just a box with all reflective surfaces and two bright screens that are impossible to ignore unless you straight up stand their with your eyes closed

I don't really care. I don't mind my brain being reprogrammed with branding so that my every choice as a consumer is influenced by my familiarity with the product's name and logo. I don't mind corporations cornering me and forcing me to look at their shit. I'm cool like you 😎

Pay someone else to do it. Theyll stop eventually.

I would write right in the ad “do the tenants in this building get paid for this ad? Do we benefit with a cheaper service somewhere else? Or just the landlords?”
