| Article Title :: Movie Industry Invading Privacy - "You Can Click But You Can't Hide" |
| |
| No sympathy for the Giant Unregulated Motion Picture Industry was to be found by a defiant individual in Boca Raton, Florida. If anything, the Motion Picture Industry should be on trial here for lackluster products and over-priced movie tickets. The theatres alone make a huge fortune on their $4.50 sodas and popcorn. One might ask "Why is a 16 oz. soda 3 dollars more in a theatre then at your neighborhood 7-11? Is it a special top secret movie theatre only soda?So they spend millions making a motion picture, but they make a hundred million dollar profit just at the theatre alone. Then we have pay per view, followed by Pay station Cable, and then of course the Movie goes on sale as (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Private Investigators on TV - The Rockford Files |
| |
| Jim Rockford, played by James Gardner, spent five years in prison for an armed robbery which he didn't commit and for which, he was later pardoned.In 1974 Rockford arrived on our TV screens, negating our preconceived ideas that PIs were suave, debonair and earned a lot of money.Rockford was not very good at investigating and avoided work when he could. He lived in a trailer and his car was an old Pontiac Firebird. Each episode began with the playing of an answer phone message which went "This is Jim Rockford. At the tone, leave your name and number and I'll get back to you." This was followed by some sort of threat from a creditor, often with regard to the repossession o (read full article) |

| Article Title :: The Top Worst Movies That You Must Watch |
| |
| Blues Brothers 2000 – there never should have been a remake. Once John Belushi died the Blues Brother should have retired. The beginning of the movie, being a John Belushi fan made me almost cry. Elwood gets out of jail and waits for his brother and they have to tell him he’s dead, this all had to figured out by the die hard Blues Brother fan, it was unspoken. That was so sad, but the best part of the movie. So the movie goes from strip club, to kid, too overall dramatic scenes, and of course John Goodman taking Belushi’s spot. Watch this movie to check out all the musical stars hidden in many of the scenes, or get a copy and burn it in John’s honor.It’s Pat: The Movie h (read full article) |

| Article Title :: DVDs Worth Seeing: The Women |
| |
| Long before Sex And the City and Desperate Housewives, there was “The Women”. Filmed in 1939, this film is a delightful rendition of the Clare Booth Luce play. Fittingly, no men appear in film; but they certainly are referred to, fought over, chased and sought after throughout the movie. That’s why the tagline to the film is “It’s all about Men”.Don’t think because this movie is “old” that there’s no relevance to today. Besides being brought back to Broadway in 2001, the truly astonishing revelation here is that people really haven’t changed since 1939. We’re still worried about the same things and we still find that same things funny.From (read full article) |
