But what does Roger Ebert say about Casablanca? On his webpage he says: “If we identify strongly with the characters in some movies, then it is no mystery that ‘Casablanca’ is one of the most popular films ever made. It is about a man and a woman who are in love, and who sacrifice love for a higher purpose.” He goes on to say that
Still ‘light-years’ ahead of the rest! Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope - By Anna Hale Totally out of the world! What film did you see when you were younger, that inspired you? For me, 'Star Wars' played a huge part in my childhood and some of the lessons it taught me are still very much a part of my life to this day. I watched Star Wars with my brother -Dave- for the first time one Christmas and from then on we were both hooked.
Hiren Patel 10/13/14 FYOS Review of “The Space Merchants” The Space Merchants was written in 1952 and it was well ahead of its time. You might expect this book, set in "the future", to be hopelessly trite and dated, but it holds up remarkably well. If anything, many of the issues in the book resonate more today than they may have when it was first published. I enjoyed this cynical and satirical science fiction novel. It's about Mitchell Courtenay, a high-ranking ad exec in a futuristic American society dominated by advertising.
Dell offered to use Giganet’s switches as well as invested $5million in the company. Dell’s product backing opened up major doors for Giganet starting with a $6million investment from Merrill Lynch and ultimately resulting in an offer to purchase the company for $300 million by Emulex. A worthy product, highly developed technology, and Industry leaders knocking down the doors to invest in Giganet certainly characterizes the organization as a success. But without the experience, expertise, innovative business solutions, and product promoting of Neil Ferris Giganet could have just as easily met its demise. What did Ferris do that contributed to that success?
It was the hope of General Motors that it would save the company and be a serious contender in the auto manufacturing industry (Ingrassia & Halpert, 2009). The Saturn was the first new model for General Motors to introduce in 70 years and was supposed to be the key to the long-term completive markets and for a short minute the media held the American made vehicle quite highly even had governors fighting to have the auto manufacturing plant in their state. One of the ways, the Saturn corporation incorporated a quality of work life (QWL) program was to do-away with the standardized union contract with a revolutionized company friendly version that also changed how the employees viewed their work and how union employees were going to work inside the new plant. Employees would receive profits sharing instead of 401(K) plans, 20 percent of salaries were tied to quality and productivity. GM pledged to employees to provide
Superheroes in Society In recent years, Hollywood has produced a plethora of movies depicting the world-saving exploits of a variety of comic book super-heroes. The seed of the 'super-craze' was sown back in the 70's with the release of a series of blockbusters featuring the classic DC hero Superman. Since the mid-nineties, however, the cinema has brought us Batman Returns, Batman Forever, Batman and Robin, Batman Begins, Spiderman I and II, The Phantom, X-Men I through III, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, The Fantastic Four, Hellboy, Daredevil, The Hulk, and many more different heroes to come. While most of these are just new twists on the original comic heroes, several attempts at new age superheroes have also been made, presumably to spark the interest of young viewers. Among these "unofficial" heroes are the famous Parr family in The Incredibles, the engaging Cortez family from the Spy Kids movies, a new teen Clark Kent from Smallville, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and the supers-in-training featured in the new Disney film Sky High.
The Golden Age of Television The Golden Age of Television is the title given to the early days of television starting in the late 1940s to 1960. But some critics use the term to describe the era when most Americans and British made the switch from radio as their primary entertainment source to television. Although it has been claimed throughout television history that various times are or were a "New Golden Age of Television," such claims have become increasingly prevalent in regards to the present day since the 2004-05 season, when the reality show craze began to subside and scripted series began to take over prime time programming. In perhaps the most notable instance, director Jon Cassar declared the arrival of this second Golden Age in his acceptance speech at The 58th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards. Whether or not the latter half of the first decade of the 21st century is, in fact, such a New Golden Age is of course up for debate.
Though it’s not all going to be serious, as Daniel Craig has hinted there is a lot of humor in Skyfall, which I’m sure will be make this movie more balanced and enjoyable than Quantum of Solace for example. Barbara Broccoli recalled the wise words of her father, Albert R. Broccoli (who brought Dr. No, the very first Bond movie, to screen). “Whenever your get stuck, go back to Fleming. Capture the essence of Ian Fleming.” The adage had worked before — 2006′s Casino Royale was the first Bond movie in twenty years to be adapted from one of Fleming’s source material and, with the help of star Daniel Craig, breathed new life into the franchise. While Skyfall isn’t based directly on one of Fleming’s novels, Broccoli, director Sam Mendes and the rest of the cast all agree the books have attitude, and the key to a great Bond is staying faithful to that tone.
Major problem What strategy should Mr. Wayne Huizenga implement to enable Blockbuster cope with the changes in the video-rental environment? In 1989 blockbuster has capitalized on its image as “America’s Family Video Store”. In 1990 Blockbuster’s success can be rooted down from its working principle as at fast service, convenient locations, family orientation, and kids appeal. But in 1992 blockbuster has jumped into diversification by acquiring several businesses. It has bought two music retail chains, two television studios, a company that runs children’s playground, invested $600 million in a bid to buy Paramount communication, and is already in renting video games and virtual reality goggles.
