The Movie Industry...Not so Dumb?

I haven't bought an actual CD since 1999ish. Partly because I think paying $20 for 2 good songs, a useless case, and an even more useless insert is a waste of money, and partly because the music is suxor I do, however, purchase more than I should legally from iTunes. I think you should pay for good music, or at least the good musicians should get payed.

Movies are a little different. For the most part they all are suxor. I have been to maybe 5 movies in the past 5 years. I have stayed away from theatres because its more fun to watch at home in comfort and 5.1. But mostly because I wouldn't pay $20 to sit in an unconfortable chair for 2 hours and watch some shitty movie whilst some a-hole won't stop talking as he's kicking my chair.

Of course the internet is to blame for all of this. THIEVES all around the world are stealing shitty music and crapier movies instead of paying for it. OR maybe people have just decided that if they are going to watch shitty movies, they can wait and get it from NetFlix and watch at home.

The RIAA of course thinks that all this is crazy talk, but it seems that the movie makers may actauly realize that their movies suck. Mr. Shaye, chairman of New Line Cinema, agrees, "In previous years, you could still count on enough people to come whether you failed at entertaining them or not, out of habit, or boredom, or a desire to get out of the house. You had a little bit of backstop."

According to the article, it doesn't see, like making better movies is the answer, but rather re-adjusting their bisiness models to depend more on DVS sales and less on theatre revenue.

WOOT!

WOOT was never a word a could figure out. LOL always made sense and I guess so does ROTFL, but WOOT? I broke down the other day and decided to do some research. Here it is:

PS-With the way that guy is using his keyboard and the fact that he is using a crappy old G3, I'm sure I could totally kick his ass.

Planet X

I was away last week and am a little late putting this up. A 10th planet has been officially disovered and will be named soon. Perhaps this is where all the little aliens live.
