Hollywood sucks.

Seriously, everything they make lately seems to just turn up crap.

The big winners in my book? Lord of the Rings (all of 'em). Did Hollywood have anything to do with those films? Hardly. Not even produced in the United States (also some political implications - unions - to blame that on).

Harry Potter movies blow up the box office...and it's the Brits raking it in. Good storytelling is the theme so far, and it's selling.

Chronicles of Narnia looks like it will sell, too. Time will tell on that one, but there's my money.

The real exception is Star Wars, because honestly, George Lucas at least does things his way, right/wrong/indifferent. The story is good and effects are done very well.

Okay, so then the other 99% of crap we see on the screen is bad storytelling, NO storytelling, no plot, unbelieveable special effects (I mean that in the bad way), bad special effects trying to make up for no story....the list goes on. It's funny sometimes how the entertaining aspect of some movies is how terribly the producers missed the mark.

Seriously, PLEASE please please Hollywood....stop being PC, get rid of the unions, make fewer movies and make them worth watching, or you can just sit back and watch 3 other continents owning your old business. Gah, idiots.

FREAKIN' GO DAWGS!!! Trade School all in tears this weekend after their loss to the boss. They beat #3 Miami last week, just to lose to UGA....now UGA gets a shot at the new #3 LSU in the championship game. Here's hoping.....
