Assessing the Recent Blockbuster Trades
2009-06-26 18:48:00 Being that I have been kind of quite with all the recent trades going on, it's time to get loud! I wanted to let all the deals happen and now that they have, I'll give my thoughts!Timberwolves get:No. 5 overall pick (Ricky Rubio)Etan ThomasDarius SongailaOleksiy PecherovWizards get:Mike MillerRandy FoyeRight now, the obvious winner of this deal is Washington. They trade four guys that don't do a ton for them (though Songaila is a solid back up) and get two proven backcourt players. If Ricky Rubio decides not to stay in Spain, he'll have a shot to prove himself.Even if he does prove to be a good player, the Wizards now have a sure fire backcourt. There will be someone their if Gilbert Arenas still isn't healthy. If Gilbert is finally healthy, then they've built some very solid depth with Foye and Miller.Foye can penetrate in and make things happen. He's somewhat inconsistent, but he had a pretty good year last season. Hopefully he thrives in Washington. Billiups did well under...

OPINIÃO: Despretensão e Economicidade Fortalecem Blockbuster
2008-10-18 05:00:00 Eu Sou a Lenda (I Am Legend/de Francis Lawrence/2007)Robert Neville (Will Smith): You can't go running into the dark.Incrível como Francis Lawrence conduz este eficiente thriller pós-apocalíptico com agilidade e, surpreendentemente, despretensão. Predicados incomuns de serem alcançados por um cineasta novato, ainda em sua segunda empreitada, e tampouco corriqueiros num arrasa-quarteirão que carrega a missão de recuperar um orçamento obsceno.A trama é simples; sua apresentação mantém-se direta do começo ao fim, entrecortada por apenas alguns flashbacks, do mesmo modo com que é estabelecido o seu mote (numa aparição-relâmpago de uma oscarizada atriz britânica). A abertura já chama a atenção, com um solitário Will Smith caçando veados à solta numa Nova York abandonada e deserta, selando o tom mantido por Lawrence no decorrer de bem-aproveitados 100 minutos de duração: frenético, abrigando entre um corte e outro a inquietante sensação de que uma ameaça espreita à volta do protagonista...

IPL becomes Bollywood's latest blockbuster
2008-05-31 07:53:00 The stifling 95 degree heat in Mumbai this weekend cannot be purely put down to the onset of the southern Indian summer. The self-satisfied glow of the organisers of the hugely successful Indian Premier League must also be ratcheting up the temperature a degree or two. Built on a mountain of cash from some of India's richest individuals, the IPL began 44 days ago with a vision for the future that seemed almost as crackpot as the idea that India would boast one of the world's booming economies.Suspicion and scepticism greeted its beginning, but ever since Brendon McCullum set alight the opening match, the tournament has gathered strength and exceeded expectations. "It has been an unprecedented blockbuster," said one of the franchise owners, Vijay Mallya - and his Bangalore team bombed dismally. The tournament culminates in the IPL play-off weekend, ending with tomorrow's final, where the organisers will be desperate to show the world their gleaming new toy. VIPs gathered...

Your Blockbuster movie download is just a drive away
2008-05-29 13:35:00 CNET is reporting that Blockbuster will begin to make movies available for download at an interactive kiosk inside their stores. All you have to do is bring your own media! In the opening scene of The Player, Tim Robbins' character is meeting with writers who are pitching movie ideas they hope the Hollywood producer will agree to make. One idea is pitched to him as, "It's Pretty Woman meets Out of Africa, without stars." Applying that Hollywood approach, the latest idea from Blockbuster can best be described as "Netflix meets YouTube, without the convenience." That's basically the pitch Blockbuster Chairman and CEO James Keyes made at his first annual shareholders meeting on Wednesday when he unveiled an in-store kiosk he hopes consumers will use to download movies. The plan, as outlined by The Hollywood Reporter, is for consumers to bring portable devices into Blockbuster stores and download movies, usually in about two minutes. Blockbuster expects to begin testing the ...

Movie Channel Package or Blockbuster Plan?
2008-05-14 07:40:00 So many are familiar with the Directtv package that features 3 premiums channels free for 3 months.But the Blockbuster Plan allows movie goers to see as many movies as they want. Its just one of the perks of "unlimited". The movies can be ordered online, and delivered and returned by mail. This is sort of similar to Netflix with no postage fees.Many people are happy with the convenience of the 5-free in store Blockbuster exchanges that are offered. (Especially since there is a Blockbuster in almost every neighborhood...) Movie lovers can sit in and get movies by mail, or they can visit a nearby store for hot flicks.So what's your preference, "Movie Channel Package or Blockbuster Plan?"
