Today's "Only in L.A." story
First off, my review of Prince Caspian. It's an okay film. As a kid, it was my least favorite of the Narnia books, thanks to its really dull story. But the art direction in the film is fantastic. I would happily pay my $12 to sit in a theatre and watch an army of talking dogs, cats, mice, bears, and centaurs in hand-to-hand combat with bad guys for two hours.
Prince Caspian isn't bad, but it's not great. But I'm eagerly waiting for the next film, Voyage of the Dawn Treader, which was an EXCELLENT book.
Anyways, before Prince Caspian started, there's a group of people in front of me. They're chattering away, then one turns to the other with an idea.
"We should pitch our television show to the AZN network!"
The others in the group buzz with excitement. "What a great idea!" "Why didn't we think of this before?" "It's a perfect fit for their network!" As the film starts, they're still very excited at the prospect of making phone calls, getting a meeting with the AZN network, and selling their show.
One little problem. The AZN network went out of business a few months ago.
I decided not to say anything. I didn't want to bring them down, since they looked so happy. But the only thing worse than some L.A. guys yammering on about their tv show? It's the know-it-all smart-alec sitting behind them who puts this stuff on his blog.
You just can't get this kind of fun with Netflix.
