The format of the article is creative and I don’t like it. The use of movies seems to be trying to channel a16z with movies instead of hip hop quotes and it isn’t working.

Agreed, I personally found it distracting. I'm not sure if each section was making a point similar to the corresponding movie plots.
I stopped reading midway through because I realized I was more focused on (unsuccessfully) trying to figure out how the movies connected with the sections following them than on the actual article.
That's what's great about a16z's blog and what's bad about these movies. They don't connect in a fun or thoughtful way, that I can decipher. If they did, I might like it.
