Finding Nemo in 3D

http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/envelope/cotown/la-et-ct-resident-evil-finding-nemo-box-office-20120913,0,6562897.story

          So as we all know it, Finding Nemo is now heading on the big screen again after several years.But not exactly as before this time in eye popping 3D. Yeah big whoop. Everyone is making remakes of popular movies in 3D just to make business. Basically everyone is doing it for the benefit of the companies. All they want is money, that's why they make every single movie now 3D. Some movies don't even look good in 3D. They think Finding Nemo in 3D will be No.1 in box office when it first releases, just like how The Lion King in 3D did. I personally wouldn't pay to watch a movie I could watch at home for not the price of maybe 20 bucks. I don't know but that's just me.
                  This article caught my eye because it's about Finding Nemo and as a kid I've always loved Finding Nemo. It was sad and entertaining to me now as how it was back then. This impacts me as a student because maybe I would go watch it if I had money and could afford to waste 20 bucks on a money that I could see at home regularly so it informs me and reminds me that all they want is my money. This impacts me as a filmmaker because I can maybe use this technique in the future since there still is alot of people who will waste their money to go watch this or simply they just have money to spare.

                Questions that I have are, is every movie in the future going to be based on 3D now? Are remakes how you guys are going to rely on to get our money?

Bradley Cooper's Under The Influence Life?

http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/gossip/la-et-mg-bradley-cooper-sober-the-words,0,2773600.story



       Bradley Cooper plays under the influences roles in movies, a great example "The Hangover." He's wasted and can't remember anything at all, drugs, alcohol, and bachelor parties. But all that is just a script to a movie. In reality he has been sober for 8 years and is loving every minute of it. You would think since he's young and handsome that he wouldn't have quit drugs and alcohol at the young age of 21. The age where you are actually legal to drink and get wasted whenever you want without getting in trouble with the law, about age of course, your actions are another story. But Cooper seemed to have one too many drugs and alcohol before. He would use it to escape his insecurities. He thought he was never good enough, he would never amount to much. He thought he was never going to live to his potential. Boy was he wrong.
      Bradley Cooper is such a success. He didn't see it coming but it's here and it's now. He came out in both Hangover movies and they were a huge success both, he was voted sexiest man alive, and he's made it so big, he's going to Toronto International Film Festival. Insecurities, goodbye. He's basically perfect.
     What caught my eye about this article is basically the concept that it's about Bradley Cooper. He's so beautiful how this not catch someone's eye. This article impacts me as a student because many students are insecure and get involve with drugs and alcohol cause they think it's over I'm never going to amount to anything. Well this is a good example that you are wrong. You can make it great change for yourself in your life if you want, live a better life and don't give up. This affects me as a future filmmaker because I could use this as an example to give someone who's barley entering the business and seems unsure about themselves a shot. You may never know you can become very close friend's with them since you gave them a shot when no one else did. Not only that but what if they blow up and make it big. It will most defiantly benefit you. This affects me as a consumer because it makes me believe insecurities mean nothing. They only make you feel down about yourself, but you need to battle them and strive for greatness.
     Some questions I have are does Bradley Cooper ever get the sudden urge to stop his sobriety? If so how does he fight it? Is he still insecure about himself after being voted sexiest man alive? I hope not I think he's beautiful.
