It's a documentary by the Supersize Me guy about product placement, the whole movie is funded by product placement also.
I'm glad to think that the community will always be kind and helpful, the language will always be a fun and easy way to be introduced into programming, the motto will always be: Imagine, Program, Share - Nomolos

That's genius. I need to watch it now.
Coming out in theaters, sometime 
And it has POM in the name because he gave name rights to the biggest sponsor.
