Fire Down Below
Fire Down Below (1997)

IMDB rating: 4.30

Plot: EPA agent Jack Taggart is Stunned to hear from his boss Phil Pratt that his best friend and fellow agent Frank Elkins has been found dead in Kentucky after Frank’s truck plunged into a river. The Kentucky State Police believes that it was an accident, but the EPA believes it was no accident. It all began with an anonymous letter from the small town of Jackson, Kentucky. Frank was sent to Jackson to investigate what the letter described as some kind of pollution that is causing fish to die and causing people to get sick enough to die. Frank sent back water and soil samples that all tested off the charts for toxic substances. After Frank discovered that the Hanner Coal Company, owned by Orin Hanner Sr., is being paid to dump toxic waste into an abandoned coal mine shaft, Frank ended up dead. Jack is assigned to go to Jackson, where his contact will be Reverend Bob Goodall, who runs a church in Jackson. After arriving in Jackson, Jack finds out that he’ll be staying in a room in the church’s basement, and as Jack’s contact, of course Bob knows that Jack will be going undercover as a carpenter. Jack begins by repairing the roof at a house where he meets Henry Carr, his wife, and his kids Edie, Alberta, Christine, and Walter. Walter is sick because of the pollution. That night, Hanner’s son Orin Hanner Jr., also known as Junior, spies on the church along with corrupt Sheriff Lloyd, who is on Hanner’s payroll. On the next day, when Jack goes into downtown Jackson, he meets Betsy Hamill and her twin sister Patsy Hamill. Jack then walks down the street and introduces himself to Cotton Harry. Then Jack takes some water samples. At church on Sunday, Bob introduces Jack to everyone, and tells everyone that Jack is a carpenter. During lunchtime at the church, Jack introduces himself to Sarah Kellogg, a local outcast who is a beekeeper. Sarah has a brother named Earl. Jack goes to Sarah’s house and offers to repair the steps on her front porch. Over time, Jack comes to believe that something is bothering Sarah, and it’s something dark. Jack wants to save her from whatever it is, while trying to bring Hanner and his crew down.

Wall Marked After Removing Dado Rail?
Hi Guys.
Im doing a bit of DIY in the lounge.
When I moved in to the house there was a dado rail around the middle of the room and the fire place wasn’t centre.
Ive taken down all of the dado rail and brought a beautiful new fire suite.
Only problem is, after removing the dado rail the wall is left with marks where the wall above and below was painted to the dado rail.
The dado was only glued on so it came off easily enough, no screw holes or missing plaster.
I sampled painting a spot, and as expected, the marks can be seen.
So, I tried sanding the "dado area" with an electric sander, then put on a coat of paint, it still seems to be visible.
Will it be hidden if I use lots of coats of paint?
Before I sanded the area, rubbing my hand across the wall, the gap could clearly be feels. But after sanding it, it felt very smooth, so I am surprised that the marks are still showing.

Help with this would be very much appreciated, I want my walls to look as good as possible.

Thanks.


Sanding the walls was a good idea that will help immensely but the marks you are seeing is the glue that soaked into the wall from the dado board, get some primer sealer and paint that on first let dry then paint with your color you might have to use a couple extra coats of paint too.

Paint will not cover it. Buy some ‘lightweight filler’ from any major DIY store. It is very easy to use and requires very little rubbing down. Scrape off any high spots with a sharp scraper. Then lose the remaining imperfections with the filler. Lightly sand with 180 grade production paper. Use matt emulsion if you can as this hides imperfections.
BARRY | Feb 09, 2010


Had a similar prob with glued on pic frames…you need to fine fill it with filler then sand all as one to blend it in, you may need to put 2/3 coats of paint on to finally erase any sign of the rail??

I’ll be back in 10 with the name of a good filler that sands down easily and easy to work with…
Polyfilla one fill )Polycell( What the tradesmen use (thats if your in the U.K.??

How do I tell my husband he is being an idiot in a nice way?
Ok, my husband announces today that he would like to go back to school to be a radio or tv personality! Currently, he is a cable man. He started to get a business degree over 8 years ago and is half-way finished that. I told him if he wants to go back to school to finish his business degree. He said he has no interest in that. Also, not to sound harsh, but I really don’t think he would ever have shot at being a radio or tv personality. He is 40 years old and he has a very thick Jersey/Philly accent. Two months ago he was talking about getting a pilot’s license. He is all over the place. I guess I’m trying to be his voice of reason, but how do I tell him he is being an idiot? I welcome all advice, but would like to see what a man thinks in particular. Is this a man thing? I just don’t understand him!


Hi O, Why do I get the impression that you are not really married? It’s okay to make up questions here. I mean who cares? But you would have to be a pretty secured woman to refer to your husband as an idiot. I am The Other Woman in my situation and I have heard his wife say some of the same naive things. Then she wonders why he wants to spend time with "THE OTHER WOMAN". You evidently have reached where it is you want to be in life otherwise you would be supportive of your man. If he starts and stops a million projects, so what? As long as he taking care of himself and his family who cares? I’ll tell you what, you call your husband and I’ll encourage him to try whatever his heart desires. If in the long run he gets a lucky break doing something he loves like being a tv or radio personality, I will stand by his side cheering him on. And if we get really lucky, I’ll come on his show and help do a spot on "Non Supportive Spouses." I will be glad to share with the world about an "Idiot Wife" who lost her husband to "THE OTHER WOMAN!" I wish you luck and tell your husband I am rooting for him. Smooches.

THE OTHER WOMAN | Jan 29, 2010


Just give him the look !!! You know the one, All you women have it and unless he is a complete dumb-azz he will get it.
Jim #1 | Jan 29, 2010


i dont understand men either i guess if he wants something bad enough he will pursue it
eternallycursed | Jan 29, 2010


yes its a man thing,
he is filling holes . why is he bein an idiot ?
there are so many 40 year old radio hosts arent they
i think john travolta flies his own aeroplane and got his license recently
maybe you should discuss with him the reasons behind fulfilling these desires
in america nothing is impoissible
you should always try even if you fail at it , its worth it
try to understand his causes and support him however you can
maybe you are being the idiot here

think about it
all the best
jake z | Jan 29, 2010


Say, "Dear, I love you, but you are being an idiot."
Nonuna | Jan 29, 2010


mid life crisis? woke up one day and realized he was a cable guy. Maybe he’ll get over it. Try to be as supportive as possible while secretly positioning him on a more rational path.
Wakikiki | Jan 29, 2010


Kinda sounds like the "mid-life crisis" bug has stung him. Maybe you could suggest that he not decide on any one thing unless he’s been consistantly interested in it for a long span of time. If only takes him 2 months to change career paths. Hopefully you will be rewarded if you can stay patient with him through it. : )
SKCS | Jan 29, 2010


You should support him in whatever he wants to do. My husband is an orthodontist and wants to move into real estate/entrepreneurship while still being a dentist….I don’t want him to because he’ll never spend time with me but it’s what HE wants to do so I’m going to support him. Marriage is about supporting the other in whatever they choose to do.
: Brooke : | Jan 29, 2010


I read that you prefer to get a man’s take, but just think about it. Maybe he’s not an "idiot" but has dreams. We all do, right? Some of us just don’t speak of them in fear that we’ll be shut down by the ones we love.
LittleMissHelpful | Jan 29, 2010


My fiance is the same way. Went from being a business man, to a service writer, to wanting to be an actuary to a lawyer, to a pilot (which he is actually doing) and now a pro golfer (which he is actually doing, on tour in 3 months). Anyway, they need to find their way but you telling him he can’t may hurt his feelings. Just support him but tell him that he still needs to work until he can do it. Trust me, you can do anything you want if you really want something bad enough. He can do it, it’s just going to be hard and tell him he will need to be prepared for the challeging tasks ahead. However, tell him that he needs to stick with it and no changing his mind. ESP if you have a family but if he doesn’t think he can stick with it then don’t do it. Good luck
Dianne | Jan 29, 2010


I agree with above comment , just give him the dissaproval look.
CS | Jan 29, 2010


I think you should ask yourself one question. If you weren’t married yet, and you were just dating, would you react in such a manner? No, you probably wouldn’t.. you would say do what makes you happy.

I agree with him. I went through 7 years of a program that i friggin HATED. to finish that program woulda been another 4 years, and $100,000 and relaly, i knew i would never use it. I just dispised it eventually…

When you are with someone, you’re partners. You support eachother. You catch them when they fall, and you support them when they need it. Sounds like he’s really battling with what he wants to do, and you need to back him up and just give him a little room to figure things out, because there is nothing worse than a wasted day. We only have a limited number of them… take advantage!

Best of luck

I have always liked to try out new and different things from singing, rapping, instruments, and even producing. I am not good at any of those, but i was able to find my niche, I am now a successful DJ playing music on the side to make xtra cash. By your definition… that makes me an idiot (in a nice way).

He is definitely having his mid-life crisis, i am 29 and im sure at that age if i am not happy with my career i will definitely explore all posibilities to be a happy 40 year old.

You should support his ideas, even the most stupid ones… why? because that is what you vowed to do the day you married him. I mean its all just talk right? he is just brainstorming? so why even make a big deal?
J R | Jan 29, 2010


i would walk up to him smack him in the head.. and say wake up you idiot… then give him a kiss say you love him and next time he thinks of being an idiot. it will be a frying pan..
p.s. that is the way women have kept men from doing idiotic things, for hundreds and hundreds of years…
sweetest | Jan 29, 2010


YOU ABSOLUTELY DON’T TELL HIM THAT HE IS BEING AN IDIOT. It is disrespectful, and a man’s number one need is respect. Your husband is going through a mid life crisis thinking that he has little to show for his life and he is not satisfied. He is wanting to improve himself for himself and for you. You need to tell him that it is okay that he wants to make something better of himself.

The answer is that he needs to go to night school and maintain his day job to provide support for the family. What I can suggest is that he go to his school guidance office and request to take the Strong Campbell Vocational Aptitude Test. This rates a person’s aptitudes on about 500 different careers. It will help him to pick a realistic career objective..

I suggest the health care field. They need people 24/7 and there is no such thing as a lay off. He could go to x ray school and start out making about $45,000 a year. He could finish his degree with a double major in business and science and go on to become a Physician;s assistant (3 years post grad school) and make in excess of $100,000 a year. The radio or tv personality is out. You have to start out as a kid and work your way up through several moves to differing cities and the pay is reallly low for those starting out..

Same thing with the pilot’s license. Most commercial pilots get their pilot’s training and hours as a military pilot. Trying to break into the pilot field as a commercial pilot requires about $250,000 worth of pilot training and the military pilot will still get the edge in hiring.

You need to support his dream, but provide gentle guidance, not tell him that he is being an idiot. Compliment him for trying to improve himself and reassure him how much you love him because he want to provide better for you.

When my husband turned 40 all hell broke loose…. He started acting like some 17 yr old who had no idea what, where, or who he was…. He is a professional and we have all the responsibilities that go with being parents, homeowners, responsible adults. It was like out of the blue…. He bought a race car, dropped a huge engine in it and was racing all over town like some high school kid, dropping all sort of money in the stupid thing. Not to mention getting tickets left and right. He started talking about doing all kinds of weird stuff, for him anyway, and wanting to grow his hair long again, wanting me to wear clothes that were way to young looking. We would go out, and he would want to stay out all night partying….
Eventually, things calmed down when the hangovers started to take their toll… :) and I just asked him what the hell was going on… I got the answer….
Men as well as women go through a "mid-life" crisis, but honestly, I think men are worse….
They reach an age where the meaning of "life" becomes all muddled and they wonder where all the years went. This especially happens with the "physical" aspects of their lives start to change… "catch my drift on that one..?" It usually happens around 40 or so with men..
What I did was just let it happen, for the most part anyway. All the while hoping that he wouldn’t want to start cruising the strip in a corvette wearing a fedora, dressing out of Saturday Night Fever styles.:)
Don’t worry he didn’t (thank God)
The more you tell him he is acting like a fool, the more fool he will be. If you ask him what’s going on, you won’t get an honest answer. Not because he would lie, but rather he has no idea what is "wrong". So, just go with the flow (with reason) ’cause most of it will be rather harmless. Hey, you may have some fun yourself, I did, laughing at him mostly.
jv1104 | Jan 29, 2010


There is no way. Period.

Tell him that you didn’t marry him to starve. He needs to grow up already.

Batman Storyline Help?
I got the movies Batman(1989), Batman Return,Batman Forever and Batman&Robin.I want to see them as a continued story with each other.In what order i must see them please?
Thank you for that quick answer Lisa.But what did you mean with Help get the man-boy love out of your head?


You have them in the correct order. It’s a good example of how a movie series goes from good to bad — horribly bad — in just four films.

| Dec 16, 2009


Actually, you wrote them down in the right order =). Batman, then batman returns, then batman forever, then batman and robin.

However, if you’re taking all of these in order at once, a good dose of begins and dark knight might be needed afterward to help get the man-boy love out of your head.

Transformers
Transformers (2007)

IMDB rating: 7.50

Plot: A long time ago, far away on the planet of Cybertron, a war was being waged between the noble Autobots (led by the wise Optimus Prime) and the devious Decepticons (commanded by the dreaded Megatron) for control over the Allspark, a mystical talisman that would grant unlimited power to whoever possessed it. The Autobots managed to smuggle the Allspark off the planet, but Megatron blasted off in search of it. He eventually tracked it to the planet of Earth (circa 1850), but his reckless desire for power sent him right into the Arctic Ocean, and the sheer cold forced him into a paralyzed state. His body was later found by Captain Archibald Witwicky, and before going into a comatose state Megatron used the last of his energy to engrave a map, showing the location of the Allspark, into the Captain’s glasses, and send a transmission to Cybertron. He is then carted away by the Captain’s ship. A century later, Sam Witwicky, nicknamed Spike by his friends, buys his first car. To his shock, he discovers it to be Bumblebee, an Autobot in disguise who is to protect Spike, as he bears the Captain’s glasses and the map carved on them. But Bumblebee is not the only Transformer to have arrived on Earth - in the desert of Qatar, the Decepticons Blackout and Scorponok attack a U.S. military base, causing the Pentagon to send their special Sector Seven agents to capture all “specimens of this alien race,” and Spike and his girlfriend Mikaela find themselves in the middle of a grand battle between the Autobots and the Decepticons, stretching from Hoover Dam all the way to Los Angeles. Meanwhile, within the depths of Hoover Dam, the cryogenically stored form of Megatron awakens…

Why have Twilight 1+2 have not been nominated 4 Best picture+how come the actors?
And how come actors Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner or Robert Pattinson haven’t been nominated 4 best actors or supporting actors. The produces spent $87 million on the movies, the movie grossed $1,089,275,896, and the 3 actors, especially Taylor and Robert began receive a lot of attention from Hollywood. What more do the oscar people want? F***ing animated Up, and Inglorious bastards, a mockery of World War II gets chosen over Twilight. I’m pissed that film like these and Transformers, Harry Potter and Star Trek goes unnoticed by the oscar people.


Because Twilight is shit.
I Hate Yahoo | Feb 05, 2010


…. why isn’t Twilight nominated? Because the only people who enjoy it are little teen girls.

Up was a great hearty movie, and Inglorious Bastards was hilarious. Obviously they would be chosen over Twilight.
Graffiti Is Art, Not A Crime | Feb 05, 2010


Same reason Jackass the Movie Parts 1 & 2, Epic Movie, Disaster Movie, Meet the Spartans, etc. didn’t get nominated.

Twilight is of the same ‘quality’ (if you could call it that) of those movies.
brian2412 | Feb 05, 2010


I know you would like to imagine that the movies deserve a reward, but in all honesty, they are very terribly filmed movies. Anyone that had no idea what twilight was about would probably not have enjoyed waitching the movies for the first time.
Julian | Feb 05, 2010


the base awards on quality and talent. twilight lacks both.
Hidden Track | Feb 05, 2010


Sweetie, I hate to tell you this, but the majority of people hate those movies. I am one of the majority. The world is not full of pre-teens with raging hormones. Up and Inglorious Basterds were both good films with great acting and an impressive and unique storyline…They don’t choose films based off of the amount of money grossed…

These are some previous Best Picture winners…

Schindler’s List(1993)
The Deer Hunter(1978)
The Departed(2006)
Crash(2005)

Previous Nominees…
There Will Be Blood(2007)
Milk(2008)
The Pianist(2002)
The Shawshank Redemption(1994)

…do you really think Twilight deserves the same recognition as those movies?
CAUTION: MAY CAUSE HICCUPS! | Feb 05, 2010


probably because there are many twilight fans and it would be a pitiful battle against others also the movies sucked a55…im not a twilight fan
unfortunately half my class is
watch all the twilight fans give me a thumbs down XD
girl | Feb 05, 2010


nothing to do wiht twilight has been nominated kind for any kind of award bcuz twilight f***ing sucks.
they shouldnt be nominated for any kind of awards.
Sarah <3 | Feb 05, 2010


Because they sucked. The oscars don’t grant trophies for high grossing movies supported by teeny boppers. They grant oscars for good acting and those two yahoos in that movie are far from great actors. Teen movies and action movies with cut & paste plots don’t get oscars. They never have and never will. Sorry.
Harry Ball | Feb 05, 2010


Because it only appeals to immature teenage girls. Why WOULD it be nominated for those things? Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are only mediocre. Taylor Lautner could do mcuh better if given the opportunity to be in a good movie.

Again, those actors don’t receive a lot of attention in Hollywood, they receive a lot of attention in junior high locker rooms.

Even the people I know that enjoyed the books say the movies sucked.
Bert | Feb 05, 2010


The reason is cuz oscars are not for WORST movie of the year.

Now maybe some doctors might think the Twilight movies are good…cuz it works almost as good as anesthesia, and without drugs.

Also, it’s really hard to nominate a movie for something if u slept thru it.
Destroyer of Dumbasses | Feb 05, 2010


Twilight has to be one of the worst books ever written, and the movie backs this up. I lost respect for the actors that said yes to playing a role in the movie, surely they would have read the script before saying yes. The day Twilight gets nominated for best anything, I’ll ride a horse naked through the streets of Paris.
Becky | Feb 05, 2010


twilight is a great movie, (the books are better) but they decided to go with summit entertainment for some odd reason, and summit sucks at special animation, graphics, and pretend images, which is alot of what twilight is, though the content is wonderful in the books, they condense the movie too much for lazy people, and the make up doesn’t even cover the vampires faces all the time…
rosie | Feb 05, 2010


Well they may get a Razzie nod for the next movie so dont feel too blue. Also, Becky, you better get your birthday suit out because MTV rewards crap, so get your horse ready for the Movie Awards.
gataroo | Feb 05, 2010


Not trying to sound rude in any way; But you’re talking about the OSCARS. The Oscars is a very high class motion picture academy. At least more than half of the critiques there can give you millions of reason why it wasnt nominated. But for the kind of movie of what Twilight is, one reason is GOOD enough. I have nothing against Twilight at all, im just pointing the facts. You’re dealing with professional directors, producers, actors, critiques, and more. There some amazing people. But what the other person said is right. Twilight fits more in the MTV awards. for TEENS.
Joanne | Feb 05, 2010


Because Twilight only appeals to teenage girls and is also a bad movie, the book is also bad. Up and Inglorious Basterds are both very good movies and the academy awards are for good movies. As for the actors all three of the ones you mentioned cannot act, the only reason they do so well in the twilight movies is because the material sucks.
samkartozia | Feb 05, 2010


Probably because ( in my opinion ) vampire/werewolves in modern 21st century is not very interesting anymore. It didn’t get most of the attention all ages viewers. I think

Man Who Would Be King, The
Man Who Would Be King, The (1975)

IMDB rating: 8.00

Plot: ” The Man Who Would Be King” is about two ambitious ex-soldiers stationed in India who set out to become the rulers of an entire country. After finishing their tour of duty in India, Daniel Dravot and Peachy Carnehan have decided that India is “too small for the likes of them,” so they decide to bribe a local ruler and extort money from him, in order to buy twenty Martini rifles, which they will use to take over villages in Kafristan. They face many challenges and perils along the way, including difficult terrain, hostile natives, freezing temperatures, and an avalanche high in the mountains. They eventually come to a small village, Urheb, where they meet Ootah and Billy Fish, an Indian who speaks English; he then becomes their translator. They then train the natives of this village to use the rifles, and soon conquer village after village. During a battle, Daniel is struck by an arrow that seemingly sticks out of his chest. The ignorant natives believe that he must be a God for not having died, and fall down and begin worshiping him. Daniel and Peachy decide that it would be easier for a “God ” to take over the country, so they pretend that Daniel is a god, the son of Alexander the Great who has returned after 2200 years to again rule Kafristan. The entire country celebrated the return of their new ruler, the Son of Segunda (”Alexander”). As a token of their admiration, the holiest of holy men gives Daniel all of the gold and riches left by Alexander in 328 B.C. It is enough to make them the richest men in the world . . . All goes well until Daniel’s ego and greed gets the best of him. He asks Peachy to bow when he walks in front of him. He later tells Peachy that he has decided to stay, and now believes that he is the son of Alexander ( ‘in spirit, anyways”), and that to fulfill his destiny, he will marry Roxanne, like his “father” Alexander did before him. The Kafiri’s believe that a mortal cannot marry a God, but Daniel goes ahead anyway. Peachy was set to leave with his share of the treasure, but Daniel convinced him to stay ” for old time’s sake” for the wedding. At the ceremony, Roxanne, believing that she would soon die, bites Daniel, drawing blood. The entire crowd realizes that since Danny is bleeding, that he is a man, not a God, and that he has been deceiving them the entire time. Peachy grabs Daniel and they run off with their twenty soldiers, shooting at the crowd of monks who set out to kill them. They are eventually captured, and Daniel is forced to walk out on a rope bridge. The monks cut the ropes, and Daniel bravely falls to his death. Peachy is later crucified; when they come to see him the next day, he is still alive, and they say that it is a miracle that he lived and they cut him down. He eventually climbs down into the valley and retrieves Danny’s head, still wearing the crown. He brings it back to Rudyard Kipling, a writer for the Northern Star, as proof that Daniel accomplished his goal, and became the King of Kafristan. Themes developed in the story: 1. ambition 2. friendship 3. taking risks 4. perseverance (not giving up) 5. power 6. honor and dignity

Nemesis
Star Trek: Nemesis (2002)

IMDB rating: 6.40

Plot: On their way to Riker’s and Troi’s honeymoon, the Enterprise is sent near the neutral zone to Romulan space, and picks up a prototypic twin of android Data. Immediately they are further sent to Romulus, where a new praetor, Shinzon, a human cloned from Captain Picard who lives on the slave planet Remus, appears to want peace with the Federation. But then the crew detects a break-in on their computer systems, and Picard is captured by the Remans because Shinzon needs him as his only matching supplier of genetic material. Picard and the Enterprise can escape, only to find themselves battling Shinzon’s completely cloaked Warbird, who is after the complete destruction of earth.

Has the new Star Trek movie obliterated the Star Trek franchise?
SInce the success of the new film, new people have been wooed to the franchise - however, many are discovering that the franchise is nowhere as great as the new film.

In addition, the franchise as it was prior to the film is now "set in an alternate" universe - and is no longer relevant. Its gone.

Of course there will be some who will resent that notion - but I somehow cannot see Paramount splashing huge amounts of cash on that time-line anymore - the last time they did - it was called Nemesis.

New fans who like the film MAY have to wait for the sequel or a new series - and that could take years.

Has Paramount chucked out the baby with the bathwater?

Opinions please.


I would say that it is the other way around. The new film, in combination with the ill fated Enterprise series have actually done a lot of harm to the franchise. They haven’t made it irrelevant, they have tainted the name of Star Trek, and people who see them won’t bother to look at the older ones.

The original star trek and TNG, plus the original films had a massive cult following that sustained the Star Trek franchise for decades through conventions and merchandise, not to mention video games and DVD sales.

However, enterprise and the new film do NOT have this cult following. They are highly polished yet highly generic action/adventure properties that have failed to attract a sustainable audience, and which have actually turned off a lot of potential fans who have seen Enterprise and the new movie and instead of becoming interested in the originals have labeled them as being dumb action movies/series without even watching them. And thus have not become fans and have not gone on to support the franchise by buying merchandise or attending conventions.

This is a complete disaster. A new generation of fans has been lost before they were even found, and it will cost Start Trek in the long term by killing off potential sources of revenue. While the existing fan base ages and dwindles it is not being replaced because of these dumb movies/series.

Nemesis was a a mistake, In fact it was exactly the same mistake. Both the new film and Nemesis were action movies with a Star Trek theme, not actual Star Trek movies. They were aimed at action movie fans, not Star Trek fans. They took out most of the adventure and the science fiction and ended up making Die Hard in space. which frankly sucked.

There won’t be any new films using the old actors, not because the new film killed off the franchise, but because most of the original/TNG actors are old and wrinkly and only really suited for cameos, and because they don’t want to do a new film because they know that the studios will ruin it like they did with Nemesis.

i don care
i love movies
supremeunitedstatesofindia | Jun 06, 2009


Yes. It may be a yoof oriented movie, but it’s not star trek
Avondrow | Jun 06, 2009


The sequel is slated for 2011. That’s reasonable, even though I’d like to see it next week;)

It’s true that I (not a trekkie) am not going to check out all the previous Star Trek films. I’ve seen a couple of them on TV, have watched some episodes of the series .. but it now feels dated. I’m totally digging the new crew and look forward to seeing more of them. Especially Spock, he’s always been my fave char and Quinto is perfect.

I don’t get your question. What Paramount wisely did is to lift the franchise out of its narrow niche. Look at the box office numbers of the previous Star Trek films! Not impressive at all. The new Star Trek is doing tremendously well. So what’s the problem?
FilmTVfan | Jun 06, 2009


they have made a bit of a pigs ear of it, plus all that alternate timeline stuff is a major headache. it was bad enough with the occasional mirror universe episodes on trek and back to the future 2
Darth Tidiot | Jun 06, 2009


The canon information up until the point at which the movie split off into the "alternate universe" still IS relevant. Just saying.

I’m a new fan. I’ll be waiting for the sequels. I’m sure there won’t be a new series with all the actors they used in the new film.

By the way, I may enjoy action films, but that does not make me a neanderthal. And if it turns out that the next film is reported to have little to no action, I’ll STILL show up to watch it. I’ll be happy to watch it.

Beginning with this investigation, Roger is assigned a new partner Sergeant Martin Riggs, who has been suicidal ever since his wife Victoria “Vicky” Lynn Riggs died in a car crash in 1984. Riggs and Murtaugh’s investigation of Amanda’s death reveals that she was murdered. Upon hearing of this, Michael tells Murtaugh that he would like for whoever is behind Amanda’s murder to end up dead, like Amanda.

Performance Fee, Taxing Thought to Radio Industry
16.10.09
“I know, I know.”

Aficianados of film know those words as Joe Pesci’s classic response to almost anything Danny Glover and Mel Gibson say in the Lethal Weapon movies. I know this because I’ve seen Lethal Weapon 2 , at least 5 times. (I don’t get out much.)

The image of Pesci holding up his hand and saying “I know, I know” with a large dose of “I’m not going to listen to what you say” attitude thrown in reflects the radio industry’s response to the oncoming Performance Royalty fee working its way through the House and Senate.

Headlines are in each radio industry trade publication saying that the Senate Subcommittee has passed the Performance Rights Act on to the full Senate. Most are accompanied by additional headlines like these at Radio Ink , “Poll : Most Americans Oppose Performance Royalty For Radio.”

You have to ask those who publish radio industry trades why they feel a need to reinforce the negatives of the issue with an industry-contrived rebuttal claiming Americans don’t want this performance rate. (As if an NAB-commissioned survey will be quoted with anything less than what the NAB wants quoted.)

I especially love this line : “85 percent of those polled agreed with a statement that read, ‘Songs played on the radio help drive music sales, generating record sales annually for performers.’” My guess is that you’d get a similar percentage of agreement if you polled the same group asking, “If people listen to radio because of the music it plays, should the artists who make that music be paid by the radio stations?”

I know, I know. Radio has the backing of the people because radio industry trade magazines continually remind us there are 256 House members and 26 Senators who have signed a non-binding resolution. All this means is that you can call this a Performance Royalty Fee, Performance Tax, Performance Pay, or many different things but it’s not going to be called dead. Delayed , yes. “It won’t make it for a vote this year” are the strongest words you can use.

This is a war of words, which the radio industry will lose in every battle with the labels. It’s not about consumer desire, though that’s what the radio industry seems to be banking its future on.

As Tim Westergren, Pandora’s CEO, announced a few days ago in his email to Pandora users : “The radio royalty system as it stands today is fundamentally unfair both to Internet radio services like Pandora, which pay far higher royalties than other forms of radio and to performing musicians, who receive no compensation when their music is played on AM/FM radio.”

The Performance Royalty debate has been turned into a parity issue. Labels now say it’s parity, and they are joined by the parties who have already committed to pay, plus a long list of popular musicians.

Meanwhile, radio industry execs are saying that radio should be the only industry recognized as delivering a promotional benefit to musicians.

I know, I know. It sounds like an illogical argument to me, too, but NAB claims that the public backs its position. The evidence is in this Friday Morning Quarterback article, ” NAB: 75% Of Americans Oppose Performance Royalty .”

If it’s reported by NAB, it has to be true. True?
