question of the day: Is Hollywood trying to kill the DVD rental business?
Have you come across DVD rental copies of movies that are somehow disabled or hobbled? Have you seen other evidence of an attempt to squash the rental business?
questions
question of the weekend: What are your most loved and most hated fonts?
My most hated font is one so basic and so ubiquitous that most people don’t even notice it: Times New Roman. I hate how bland and conserative it is.
question of the day: Has 2011 been the best year for science fiction films ever?
I must confess that the notion didn’t even cross my mind till Scott Weinberg put forth the suggestion at Movies.com…
question of the day: What would be a great title for a James Bond movie?
Supply the plot, too, if you like. Or just tease us with a title that makes us salivate just imagining what it could be about…
question of the day: What are some good movies (and TV and books) with young girls as heroes?
Dan addressed this to me, but I’m opening it up to everyone because this is a tough one. There simply aren’t that many movies that fulfill Dan’s requirement…
question of the day: Does the world need 96 new channels of YouTube content?
Are our TVs not already chock full of more crap than we could ever watch, even if we wanted to watch it all? Doesn’t the glut of pointless, useless junk on the vast multitude of cable channels prove that there are already too many content streams and not enough good material to fill them?
question of the day: What movie most says “Halloween” to you?
If you were going to pick out the ideal DVD to watch tonight, once the trick-or-treaters go home and there’s nothing left but the night and the darkness, which flick would you choose?
question of the weekend: What meaning does Guy Fawkes hold for you?
This weekend’s question may be mostly for my U.K. readers… though I suspect my readers elsewhere are likely crossculturally aware enough that they’ll have something to kick in here, too.
question of the day: Should an actor keep his or her age a secret?
Does revealing ages work only if everyone reveals his or her age?
question of the day: What part of Hollywood would you #Occupy?
I might #Occupy studio facilities where they do motion-capture, and allow it only for Andy Serkis to portray a hobbitlike creature or an ape…
