YCRFS 9: Kill Hollywood

Indeed. If it’s any industry that deserves a swift kick in ass it’s the movie industry.

Those who count on quote ‘Hollywood’ for support…

Those who count on quote ‘Hollywood’ for support need to understand that this industry is watching very carefully who’s going to stand up for them when their job is at stake. Don’t ask me to write a check for you when you think your job is at risk and then don’t pay any attention to me when my job is at stake.

You gotta love the threats from this guy. Kind of gives you an idea how the entertainment industry and Congress negotiate, after all he was a U.S. senator.

Ultraviolet Digital Copy Sucks

Eric Longstaff — Sun, 20 Nov 2011 14:00:15 +0000

I use the term “Digital Copy” loosely when I describe my experience with Ultraviolet. In a nutshell it really sucks. You see, you cannot keep a copy of your movie in your iTunes library to watch on all your iOS devices including Apple TV. For me that’s a huge deal-breaker.

I understand that Warner Brothers and Sony have signed up to use this service. My choice will be to not buy any movies from these two companies as long as the digital copy is streaming. As long as I cannot add a digital copy to my collection in iTunes

50’s Raiders of the Lost Ark

Transformers 3

Just saw Transformers 3 and boy was it craptastic. All the amazing action and special effects couldn’t save this flick. It’s the story and characters stupid. My review:

Acting-D, Story-D, Special Effects-A+

Stars Wars characters crocheted
