Many people have been looking forward to the Viral Film Festival coming here in New York City from April 28th to May 3rd. It is just a little over a month away and it has been creating a lot of hype. I have a few friends that are excited to going there to check out how it is.
You can go to viralfilmfestival.com for more information on how you can get into the festival and have fun. I will probably go if a friend or two pushes me which I won’t be surprised about. And since it’s around the time I Have finals, it may be hard. But if you go, make sure you enjoy yourself.
Heroes is one of the most popular TV shows on any network at the moment. They finished their first season a few months ago. It has a huge season finale where millions tuned in to watch that night and then millions more logged into NBC.com to watch it online. Heroes started their Second season about 4 weeks ago and it airs on NBC on Mondays at 9 PM Eastern Standard Time. Check your local listings for the channel number. If you live in NY Like me, it’ll be Channel 4.
It is a great series and it is very catchy and addictive. I love sci-fi at times and this puts that along with action and drama all in the same place. Anyone watching it will enjoy it. If you missed the first season, it’s ok because the season is out on DVD and you can buy or rent it anytime you wish. If you haven’t seen it before, I greatly recommend watching this series because it will entertain you a lot better than most other TV Shows.
American Idol as most of you know it, is the most popular and most watched television show in the United States. It is coming up on its next season which is a few months away. American idol 7 will be just as great and funny as any other season. I’ll admit that I am not the biggest American Idol fan but in the last few seasons, I’ve grown to watch the show a bit more. I usually only watch the beginning, the part where a lot of people make fools of themselves and I find that hilarious and I watch near the end when more people start voting for their next American Idol than people have voted for their last 2 presidents.
Here is a history of American Idol. The show American Idol is not original as most of you may think. It is a copy of the British show Pop Idol that takes place in the United Kingdom. The last I heard, that show was still running. Many countries have copied Pop Idol and American Idol to get rating for their country channel and fame to their country. One example is the new Canadian Idol which has already been up for about five seasons. Another example is India’s Famous Indian Idol where the number of votes there match up to the numbers of votes to the American Idol because of dense population. India is one of the most populated country in the world and they use that as an advantage to get popularity.
American Idol has been successful and will continue to be even more successful if it keeps up. If you are an American Idol fan then you are in luck because the show no signs of ending.
I like all types of movies. Horror happens to be one of my favorite genre of movies. I like movies that can scare me since I don’t get scared so easily. There are always horror or scary movies coming out every year. A new movie coming out is called Halloween the movie which is released August 31st everywhere in the United States. It was writen and directed by the great Rob Zombie. One of my favorite scary movies of all time is Freddy vs. Jason. It is party thriller and part horror and that’s a winning combination for me. Halloween the movie is similar to that and that’s why it grabs my attention so much.
The trailer is already out and under this paragraph, is the youtube video trailer of Halloween the movie. It seems to be great and Rob Zombie is known to make some awesome horror flicks. So if you don’t think this movie is for you, you can click play and watch the trailer right here before going to theaters. And if you think its too scary for you, take someone with you that can comfort you.
As you can see from the trailier, a lot of money has been spent on trying to make this movie as good as it can get. If you are having trouble with viewing the video, just visit youtube and search Halloween the Movie Trailer. Something will come up for sure.
Well I hope this post help you decide on whether this is the right movie for you to watch. I’ll probably watch it since its 2 days after my Birthday.
Voting has come far since brought up hundreds of years ago. Voting for the president, the mayor, the governor, and the next American Idol. I call this interactive television. This is where the TV show pulls its viewers and fans into the tv show by getting them to vote for their favorite character or star. This is called Reality TV Pool. You can call in the vote or go on the internet and vote.
Television shows has come together with the technology world in making both much more popular and better than they already are. More viewers means more money and more visits on their website could mean more money too. This is all entertainment. This is the entertainment business and how reality tv functions these days. Some examples of these types of shows are: American Idol, Americas Next Top Model, So you think you can dance, and much much more. These shows appeal to a fanbase of almost every age. Whether you are 6 years old or 60 years old, this can pull you into the show and entertain you very much. As the world of technology rises, you will probably vote for the next president on the computer.
I am pretty sure most of you are familiar with the Comedy Central show called Reno 911. It is basically about cops that can’t do their job the right way. Always messing up and costing the city more and more money in damages. And I am sure that those Reno 911 fans are aware of the new Reno 911! Miami The Movie that will come out very soon. It is no surpise that a popular series as this to come out with a movie. Thats just more entertainment for the viewers.
Well today I have played a game on the Reno 911 dvd website called Calling All Units. I am an avid gamer so I thought this would be an easy game to win and conquer but I was wrong. Calling All Units require driving skills and I love driving and all racing games but this one was tough. Just like the characters in the show, the character in the game has low driving skills. So when turning you turn either too much or two little. I have crashed many times and have only reached my destination once. On the top left corner of your screen it shows the cost of the city you have caused and how much money you made called your salary. And also a bust in bonus that you get for meeting your point.
I have cost the city $58,000 in damages and have only made $19,200. But received $10,000 for bust in bonus which is pretty good. The Reno 911! Miami unrated dvd release will have jam packed action of these “cops” that can’t really do their job. It is always funny to watch others screw up or do stupid things. If you like comedy them Reno 911! is probably good for you.
I am pretty sure you like to watch new series that comes out on TV. Well there are some shows that just do great no matter where they come out and how they do it. It is just the story that keeps the watchers tuned in for the next episode or season or more. USA Network’s Burn Notice is about a CIA Agent who gets fired from the United States Government. Ever wonder what happens to agents that get terminated from the CIA? They don’t just get fired, they have to get burned and leave no evidence.
So what do you think triggered the firing of Agent Michael Westen? If it were me, I would have to say that on one of his missions, international mission, he was caught and discovered. The enemy has located the country he works for and he put the whole mission at jeopardy. Wouldn’t that be a great reason to fire someone? He may have given out information after being drugged that can give the enemy the upper hand in escaping or even killing the other agents on that mission. Anything is possible.
Of course the CIA is a very secretive organization. Even though almost everyone knows about it, they just don’t know what is going on inside or what their plans are. The new series Burn Notice will give you the thrill you need into finding some clues of what the CIA does and what happens to agents that are terminated. So just look forward to this series because I know I will.
Everyone has a leisuretime or freetime as some may call it. People do many things and their leisure for fun. Some hang out with friends, others play sports or watch sports, and me, well I just like to spend some time on the internet and write a few blog posts if possible. Television helps big companies or business with their leisuretime promotions. What I mean by this is for example, Microsoft uses TV Ads to promote their computers and products. People go on computers most of the time for fun. It is also used for work and homework but how often do you do those when you are on the computer? TV just helps promote those ideas.
For your leisure, I recommend doing a few things that have gotten me through some boring times. First, find a movie you think you may like but never saw it before, it will entertain you taking away the boredom. Go out for a walk if its a nice day or go shopping, just dont spend too much money. Play sports, it is a very healthy thing to do no matter who you are. A little exercise will keep the heart running and keep it alive. You can even try to learn some web design or web management like I did a while ago. I am not sure how many people will find that “fun” but I sure did. So just next time you are bored just do something to get your body moving during your leisure.
Almost everyone likes to watch Television. I know I love to watch TV. Some of my favorite shows include Smallville, The Simpsons, Family Guy, Scrubs, and Everybody Loves Raymond. I watch a lot more shows but these are just some of my favorites. Something else I like to do is talk to others about my favorite shows. Talk and laugh about it. The TV and DINNER Forums gives you the chance and freedom to do just that. I am a member of that forum and i enjoy getting into a few conversations. It has so many channels to discuss along with off topic sections. You can even promote your websites, talk about movies and music and much more. The forum has over 120 members with over 4,000 topics. It is really developing well.
Just thought i would share some experience with you guys if you need to talk about your favorite shows or channels or anything.
