Expensing is not easy in some companies. For Sieman and Compaq/HP it was damn impossible (i had to have written approval before the fact and it took five months. Also, both companies have strict internet policies. No surfing allowed. 1st offense is a written reprimaned, 2nd is termination./rant over
I got my info thru moviego.com. With or without downloads it made 180mil. Thats a fact. Whether it is sunny or rainy affects whether people goto theaters. The amount that download affects is smaller than what the weather affects, in my opinion. If I like a movie, I like to see it in a theater. If it strikes me as something I want to own, I buy the DVD (mostly for the blooper reel). As to downloads, do them take up a lot of space on your hard drive? Space on hard drives is one for each user to consider.:)
It cost 120mil to make but has made 225mil box office alone. Dvd is usually about four times box office and then there are other retail considerations(toys). I'd say they are making there money back plus.
Do you think they could have made it better?/rant over
Spidey did 180mil this last weekend. I'd say that downloads of it before did absolutely nothing to detract from opening day money take. It sounds cliche, but they freak at technology the way radio did at television. They aren't thinking of making their craft (producing movies)better, they just worried that someone else will make some money. How many of the recent(last two years)movies just bite because of bad writing and production./rant over
1. Cubes (single and double)w/sliding doors.
2. Common areas w/comfy chairs and snacks (free sodas/coffee/water a must)
3. Great Chairs (butt cramps are a *itch)
4. Fast Internet (when I have to look up something, I need it now)
5. Policy thing of Study time per day or per week(my pet peeve)
6. A window easily accessible(refocus the eyes)
7. Cube toys for all every three months.
8. Food (my office has a pot luck once a month)
thats all for now

I think Bawls could use this as a commercial, "45 minutes from Idea to Protype. Drink Bawls!" Oh, yea!!
