Greetings

I'm attempting to bring myself into the modern age by using this cyberspace diary in ways that might suit me better than Facebook.  I'm a movie fanatic cheesy movie fanatic & have been my whole life. Having spent my teenage years in the 80's I got to see the last grasp of drive-in style movies actually play movie houses before the films went exclusively direct to video & the good old theatres were beaten to a pulp by the corporate multiplexes. You see kids, there was a time when you paid good hard earned cash to see a movie & didn't have to be bombarded with a preshow of paparazzi style info on who Brad Pitt is fucking or the next Twilight kid pick'n his nose only to be followed by a non-stop stream of bank ads, milk commercials, Calvin Klein's heroin addicted models and god knows what else these theatres can milk money from. In many a way I hope the home theatre market/Internet downloading kills these gluttons, but that is a double edge sword, cause as good as home theatres get there is no substituting the air around seeing  film on the big screen, I still love it even if I have to sit through all the shit first.
