there's always an IP angle

There is plenty of hay to be made over the RNC's expenses at a nightclub featuring simulated bondage and lesbian sex (apparently this is okay as long as big Republican donors are watching), but I was struck by the description of the club at issue as inspired by Eyes Wide Shut, along with some other pop culture references. So, in a permission culture, how many permissions do you need to open a club with cocktail servers (un)dressed like Natalie Portman in Closer, decor inspired by a Gucci purse, and a concept founded on 2o viewings of Eyes Wide Shut?
