What would you consider to be your dream job? I’m sure many people would say to not have a job at all, but rather a loaded bank account allowing them to do as they please. Fair enough!

Just to be clear, I’m not talking acting. I prefer something behind the scenes. I hope to be a screenwriter some day. Okay, I know what you’re thinking. The writers have no pull! This would be a fair assumption. In reality it’s the movie director and producers that call the shots. So which one of these is your dream job? I know you’ve thought about it. We all do!

Central Iowa tourism discussed by new author

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

A well known author is just finishing up the final pages of a book on central Iowa tourism that he has been working on for two years now. He did all the research on the book himself by finding every attraction and restaurant in the central Iowa area and visiting them himself or with his family. He is an avid camper so he would find a local campground and not only would he write about that he would use that campground as a central point to visit all the attractions in the area. He used the information supplied by the campground workers to find the hidden treasures of that particular area. He ate no meals at the campsite as he was also reviewing the restaurants in the area. One thing that surprised him was the number of museums that were scattered around the state. It felt like there was some kind of a museum in every other small town and the things they were dedicated to were quite varied. Some of them were dedicated to such things as salt and pepper shakers or old telephones. Most were just dedicated to the past of the community but those were quite interesting as well.

Do Movie Reviews Sway Your Choices As To What Movies You Watch?

Wednesday, December 19th, 2007
There are a plethora of movie reviews on the web at any time. If you want to discover varying opinions on a variety of films then check out rottentomatoes.com, it’s a really cool site. While some critics may bash a film into the ground, others will give it a thumbs-up. As I said, a great deal depends on the critic writing the movie review. When it comes down to it, you can see how many movie critics are writing damning reviews on a new movie release and how many are praising it. The way it is supposed to work is, if the movie receives many more bad reviews than good reviews, than chances are it’s going to be a flop. But, if you really want to know for sure, go and see it for yourself and give it your own movie review.

Is It Really A New Released Movie Or A Movie Remake?

Saturday, July 21st, 2007
Deja Vu – Didn’t That Killer Die In The Last New Movie Release
For some reason they remake horror films more than any other genre. And I understand that with today’s superior special effects the temptation is just too strong not to want to remake everyone’s favorite scary movies. But, guess what Hollywood? The reason most people go to see a new released horror or hack and slash movie is the suspense, the unknown. Guess what? When you remake a horror or hack and slash movie, the suspense is gone, the unknown is known. Use your collective imaginations and make a completely original new released movie so we can start using our imaginations once again. I have actually heard remakes called “re-imaginations” and that’s a sad thing. So please stop taking the “thrill” out of the thriller.

Indiana Jones DVD

Saturday, June 30th, 2007
Will There Be A Forth Indiana Jones DVD
Indiana Jones is unquestionably the greatest action hero in films and on dvd. Indiana Jones, played by actor Harrison Ford, was first introduced in the 1981 film Raiders of the Lost Ark. Indiana Jones is modeled after the square-jawed heroes of the pulp magazines and matinée serials such as Doc Savage. Director Steven Spielberg grew up watching the cliffhanging matinee adventures at his local movie house and wanted to re-create them in his trilogy of films featuring an archeology professor. The three movies, all available as an Indiana Jones dvd were big hits with audiences. Harrison Ford, in the lead role in the films, never lost his fedora hat and bullwhipped his way into action around the world, not content to stay in the museum.  The movies were co-produced by George Lucas, a friend of Spielberg and the man behind Star Wars. The franchise is set to return in 2008 with a fourth movie, starring Ford again.
Snakes! Why Did It Have To Be Snakes!
It all began in 1981 with Raiders of the Lost Ark. Ford is in a race with Nazis to find the Ark of the Covenant. It also featured Paul Freeman and Alfred Molina. This was followed three years later with Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, when Ford searches for a mystical stone. This Indiana Jones dvd and film features Kate Capshaw and Amrish Puri.
