Blindly brought a Movie ticket:
I Bought a Ticket for Henry Cavill’s Face. Guy Ritchie Gave Me So Much More. Let me be honest with you. I did not buy a ticket to In the Grey because of any particular interest in the plot. I didn’t do research. I didn’t read a synopsis. I saw the words “Henry Cavill” and “Jake Gyllenhaal”…

My feelings about the Current Entertainment Industry:
I feel confident and optimistic that the industry will bounce back and be as great as it was; but better. I think the issue is that the industry has always gone through changes. First you had the black and white and no sound, then you had sound, then color, then everything else. We, meaning us…
