Dear Blowhards --

* What to do if movie-theater ticket sales are dropping while DVD sales are booming? Why not release your films straight to DVD?

* Joi Lansing is trapped in the web of love.

* Thomas Groh enjoys showing off tacky and sensationalistic movie posters from eras when movie posters were really movie posters. (Link thanks to Colby Cosh.) Check out this scandalous beauty -- now that's the kind of ad that can get me to a movie theater pronto.

* Ilkka predicts -- convincingly, to my mind -- that in five years no more physical video stores will remain.

Best,

Michael

You can see my comment on 16 Volts about why DVD rental stores may *not* be endangered. I still stand behind what I said.

That looks very much like the gals in the video games these days...

Who was that guy stirring the pot in the Joi Lansing clip? Wait...was that you, MB? Admit it, that's your ultimate fantasy role, isn't it? Come on, come clean. Confession is good for the soul.

I could only dream to play such a glorious role ...
