several studios that are open for studio tours

Vist Los Angeles and you’re sure to come across movies being made — whether out in the street by your hotel or in one of several studios that are open for studio tours.

Today most of the studios are closed to the public except when audiences are needed for live shows or when the call goes out for extras to populate various movie scenes. But there are several that do allow tours, including some where the chances are good you’ll see a real movie star.

The granddaddy of movie studio tours has to be Universal Studios Hollywood, which now includes its movie studio tour as just one small part of a Disneyland-like theme park with elaborate rides and attractions all having something to do with the movies. Built along a hillside in Universal City, the theme park has grown over the years incorporating new attractions that match up with some of the hottest movies produced at Universal.

The definitive NASCAR movie

the definitive NASCAR movie

So I read a statistic that claims 1 in 3 Americans are NASCAR fans, that equates to over 100 million people. Are we to believe that a full third of the American population do not deserve the making of a true quality NASCAR Movie? Now when I say true, what I mean is a movie that reflects the reality of the sport, not fantasy. Great stories have drama, suspense, anticipation, characters, a beginning and an end. Can anyone argue that all of these elements are not part of every NASCAR race? All 36 of them! And this doesn’t even consider the story lines that build from the first race at Daytona to the final race at Miami/Homestead.

Over the years, Hollywood has tried in vane to create the definitive NASCAR movie (Red Line 7000, Stroker Ace and The Last American Hero to mention a few). So far, only “Days of Thunder” in my opinion even registers. To quantify my measurement system on a 1 to 10 scale (with 10 being the highest), “Days of Thunder” is a definite 1. Yes I agree it is good entertainment and has some big names, but the actual racing and apparent driving skills are all Hollywood. By this scale, name any other NASCAR movie you’ve ever seen and it would rate in the negative numbers. I’m saying they don’t even qualify for a rating, clearly, nobody has hit the bulls eye as far as NASCAR Movies go.

I am sure that every one of us likes watching movies or can say likes watching good movies. Good movies are the best way to relax. Movies have the power to take you from the real world to a very good imaginary world. At the time that you are watching the movie, you feel disconnected with the whole world. For the moment, you forget all your worries and get involved in the story line of the movie. However, one of the most important questions that arise at this stage is from where can we find good movies to watch? This blog is all about finding out ways in which we can find the list of movies that we should watch or rent.

The following are the two major ways through which we can find the best movies

* Through the internet

* Asking the opinion of the person that rents DVDs

The first method of finding out the best movie or DVD is the best one. The reason is that we all know that the internet is a global village. It has virtually connected every single person on this planet. What this means is that for one simple topic, you can have the opinion of the whole world. The same is the case with movies. Once a movie is discussed, you can be sure that you will get the opinion from everyone in the world. There are many websites that have a list of top ten DVD rentals, which will give you an idea about which movies are good and which are not.
