Hollywood: The Marketing Menace

Hollywood’s Art of Raving

**** Hauntingly Beautiful, yet Superbly Disappointing!!!

**** Never has so much been spent to say so little!!!

**** So much wooden acting, I thought I was watching a forest!!!

**** I like the toys better, mommy!! I don't want these toys anymore!!

**** Cannes Jury is Unanimous! We'll never sit on this jury again!!

**** A triumph of wasted potential!!

**** I laughed , I cried, I peuked on my popcorn!!!!

**** Boy, the Pentagon makes long commercials!!!

**** Sent shivers up my spine, but was only a broken spring on my seat!!!

**** Profoundly Alienating & triggered my suicide. This was my last review!!!!

I showed Tom Cruise my script!

- You waved it in front of a TV set when Tom Cruise was on Larry King

It’s so hot- George and Steven won’t stop calling me to discuss financing.

-- I keep telling them no!

- George Ramirez and Steven Gifford from the phone company want immediate payment on my phone bill. I keep telling them no!
