Bad Apple: An easy way to tell who the villains are in movies

It takes a lot of work to be a movie villain. You need to have the proper laugh, a formidable lair and perhaps even a handful of loyal minions. But one thing a villain can never, ever have — according to director Rian Johnson — is an iPhone. While making his latest film “Knives Out,” Johnson ran into a curious brand standard that Apple demands in all media portrayals. Apparently, all depictions of the iPhone must reflect favorably on Apple. In a broader sense, this means suspicious or evil characters can’t use iPhones in movies. In an exchange with Vanity Fair, Johnson broke down how one of his characters uses an iPhone in a pivotal scene, which accidentally spoils her role in the plot (or lack thereof). So the next time you want to play a game of Guess the Villain, pay attention to their phones. You might be surprised who’s using an Android and who’s using an iPhone.

Apparently, Apple either believes all iPhone users are good or all Android users are evil.
