Never reveal movie plot points (and hardly ever <I>know</I> them.)<BR/> <BR/>Management still gets mad here and there. Selected employees often aren't happy.<BR/><BR/>You write a blog on the internets, somebody somewhere thinks you're a toad.

Since blogging is not conventional media -- it makes it almost impossible to control. This must drive the big shots nuts because they're use to controlling information. Now, a Blogger can rag on you or your overrated movie -- and you can't even get him fired.<BR/><BR/>So, the mainstream press gets irritated. Who cares.<BR/><BR/>So, people get enraged at you? They can solve that little problem by clicking off and not coming back.<BR/><BR/>Blogging has become another thorn in Hollywood's side, and that gives me no end of delight.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
