The editor's choice to not include apple movies because it's a 'tech company' is bizarre, and really makes me doubt the article's integrity and motives

Apple is weird.

They released 'The Aerialists' in theaters for a hot minute, then moved it to their service.

I'm not an accountant, but anyone can see there are a lot of shenanigans going on with Hollywood book keeping.

That said, I only saw 'The Flash' on DVD from my library and "indy ...' because it was on a streaming service about six months after it opened.

None of these movies is popular.
