years old I had asked my dad what some of his favorite movies were. Instead of telling me he handed me a box of movies he had purchased over the years and said I should look through it. After looking through it for a few minutes I had stumbled upon a movie with 2 men standing and staring at the camera, one was holding a gun and they were in a bowling alley. That was the first time I had came in contact with the Big Lebowski. The Big lebowski's comedy and great Characters make it the best…

When it is coupled with a fitting plot, character development can transform a good movie into great one. In Blockers, each character develops differently with the viewer’s impressions on many characters changing by the end of the film.

American cinema dominated the entertainment world for decades. Even though movie attendance dropped following the Second World War, people still flocked to the cinemas for a few hours of entertainment. By the mid-1950s, however, things had begun to change. No longer was film the top source of visual entertainment, but it now had another medium with which to compete—television. Some of the biggest studios in the 1950s teamed up with network television companies to get a foot into the door of the…

I am happy to announce that the Houston Astros have developed three separate ticket plans for the upcoming season. We must consider several things when determining our pricing structure. As an organization, we need to be cognizant that there are many different kinds of fans, therefore, the design of the ticket structure must reach out to these varied types of customers. Some fans will come for day games while others will only attend weekend games. Additional supporters may only attend games once…

“Why would anyone want to make avant-garde/experimental films in a time of virulent anti-intellectualism, widespread political repression and persecution, misguided social and cultural priorities, an increasingly ugly and vulgar popular culture, and, perhaps most questionable of all, an intense apathy to all things beautiful and sublime” (Varela 3)?

Spike Lee. I choose Spike Lee because he is a good and well known movie director. His films always have action in them and keep you interested the whole movie. The most recent movies I watched by Spike Lee are “He Got Game” and “Crooklyn.” The movie Crooklyn came out in 1994. It was a good movie about the ups and downs that families have to go through sometimes but at the end the family overcomes the problems. Another Spike Lee movie I really liked was “He Got Game” because its about a…

studios who moved to telefilm. They were forced to take the threats seriously because the exhibitioner’s theaters still consisted as their largest market. That issue would later be resolved due to the antitrust consent decrees that take away the movie theaters that major studios owned.
