This basically sums up the entire deal with 'Charlie's Angels':
1) gorgeous 2) strong beliefs and abide by them 3) have a whole
lot of fun.
THE
GRINCH
The popular choice! "I'm not one to spend all my hard earned
cash on movie theaters (I'll wait for the video) so I'm selective
as to what I'll go and see. I'll definitely catch 'The Grinch' because
I loved the animated special as a kid (and still do). I also want
to see if Jim Carrey can pull the role off! Tom Hanks is one of
my favorite actors so I'll likely go see 'Castaway'. To all the
movie lovers out there - Seasons Greetings!"
VERTICAL
LIMIT
"I think that 'Vertical Limit' looks like an exciting flick
to see. Probably the type of film you'd go see with a bunch of boys
to give them a break from the chick flicks. Although it does look
a little "extreme" to put it lightly, with people jumping
from mountain to mountain, it still looks like it would be quite
entertaining...However, after the boys have their chance with their
action film, it would be time for more of a ladies' choice. I think
that the new movie with Mel Gibson looks hilarious. He can read
women's minds. I just think it would be funny to see how men would
react if they knew what women were thinking."
BLOCK BUSTER FLICKS VS. BIG CINEMA SPECTACULAR
Many kids asked the following: "What's up with the movie ticket
prices sky rocketing like mad?"
"The increase in the price for movie tickets is to supplement
the costs of building wicked movie complexes, but AREN'T THERE just
too many of them as of now? Some of them are usually empty, even
at peak times! It's just a waste of money ... waste of OUR money!
Theater prices are getting way out of hand. Even the cheap theatres
have increased their prices 225% in the past 2 years."
"Rather
than spending a fortune at the movies I'm going to head to BLOCKBUSTERS
to rent the movies 'GONE IN 60 SECONDS' and 'SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION'.
Why 'GONE IN 60 SECONDS?' IT'S ALLLLLLLLLLLL about the cars. There's
nothing better than a souped up CIVIC SiR racing a PORSCHE 911 TURBO!
Too bad the main car is a Hemi powered American bad-ass car. Man
.... why can't it be an EVO VI !!! "
NRG
Solutions Perspective
So...lots of variety this Christmas season at the box office but
let's step back and notice an underlying theme we've been monitoring
over here at NRG Solutions youth headquarters.
With the advent of DVD players and releases to video outlets coming
closer and closer on the heels of major theatrical releases, we're
going to be seeing an MP3-esque revolution in the film industry
shortly.
Home viewing continues to be more cost, time and socially efficient
than going to the theatre. In fact, you are often getting more by
purchasing or downloading a DVD these days.
Theatres will remain a major social nexus for teens and young adults
throughout the next couple years but it is time now to start thinking
about rolling out communication programs to the home-based film
market AS IF it were an actual theatre experience. This is a new
marketing avenue that has not been fully capitalized upon.
Happy
Holidays, movie-lovers far and wide!
