In studio construction, the comprehension wing is generally located on a different corridor from the executive wing. The scariest group is the so-called 'creative executives', a cabal that thinks it comprehends when, in fact, it doesn't.
An example. Twenty years ago, a friend was pitching TV shows to a studio 'creative' executive. The exec. heard his pitch, then said he had an idea of his own that he was looking for someone to develop. His idea had a bigoted right-wing father, a simpering mother, a cute daughter and a liberal son in law. The guy went on for some time about how this family would interact with each other until my friend stopped him and pointed out that there was already a show called "All in the Family", to which the 'creative exec' replied, "No, no, you don't understand, this one is completely different. In my show, the family are Smurfs."

okay.. who has seen 300?
I did..remarkable film.. amazing photography/visuals...
Not sure I will see it again on big screen. Intense is an understatement.
Loved the slow visuals of flowing femininity before the war reality set in..
going to be gone for evening..
later all..
I know I'm kind of changing the subject here, but I saw "300", and it was AMAZING. I loved it. So many great parts, I can't even come up with one I loved most.
I go tomorrow, and plan to be one of your "reviewers" for it.
the photography was incredible.. i love the mystic's woman's dnce almost... with the camera & the blowing chiffon, it seemed.. as well as the love scene.. almost muted with softness
Oh, BTW,.. did you audience break into applause when the wife "did her thing" after the senate happening? Ours did.. cheering & applause. As well as at the end
The OFFICIAL BIG review will be in the April 1 edition..I have you down as the "official " reviewer for that.. and your men's comments will be included too hopefully.
Hope you enjoy it. There are a lot of scenes (for me) of closing my eyess).. but the high percentage of testosterone full attendees ate it all up. There were a lot of men who were there with their buddies in groups. NOT exactly a chick flick even though GB was in it
It sounds like it's been sold out so far, so I'm crossing my fingers we can get in.
Great link, Dolly; thanks!
can you go earlier? I am guessing the night shows will be sold out, they were last night & that is why we attended in afternoon.. went to a dpl theater at Cinemark
going to friends house for dinner tonight. He asked what movie I might want so see.. I said Jaws DVD. He went & rented it.
Will watch the special features also. I think it will be like a new movie, it has been sooo long since I have seen it..
Oooh, cool!
LOLOL! Yes, we went earlier, to a matinee, to a DLP production as well. I loved the movie, and the violence was so "stylized", it didn't bother me as much as I thought it would. I'll give a more detailed review later. The ticket gal said that all the evening performances were sold out and they added midnight shows to accommodate the overflow.
Many intriguing aspects, and symbolic ones. As I said, more later.
Saw 300 tonight, the men were beautiful....much cheering and applause at the scene in the Senate....many were mouthing the words as if they had read the book, anticipating every line....really enjoyed the music too.....BTW, did I tell you the men were beautiful! LOL
Yes, the men were ABSOLUTELY beautiful.. and so were the women I think the men will say!... & the photography was outstanding with the various speeds of very slow to regular speed for the war shots as well as the others
did you go at night? was it sold out?
Loved it!
and watched the two hour 30 year anniversary interview with everyone..
most excellent & I thank YOU for reviewing it & putting the idea in my mind.
I truly remembered so very little..
The shots of Dreyfus & Spielberg SO VERY young were neat..
Well, I did my part to support this "blood bath"..
lol
