Movies

To think movies could move from a single motion picture camera in 1888 invented by Dixon, to Fox Studios showing movies with audio with it in 1922 is mind blowing. In just 34 years, movies moved from an idea, to a huge, money making success. And by just 1930- just eight years later, there were 9000 theaters! That's right, in JUST eight years movies went from movies being showed by a single studio to movies being played everywhere from 9000 theaters. Movies are still crazy popular today though, and it's amazing they've lasted over 80 years. But that isn't a coincidence, some reasons include the social experience, going t the movies is a good place for a large group or for a date. Genre variety- self explanatory, there's always different kinds of movies out that reach out to everyone. And the cultural experience- people always wanting to be able they saw it opening night and they want to be able to talk about it with other people. Plus movies get a lot of money from things like TV showings, DVD's, product placement, shirts, and posters.

Talking about movies in class really made me happy because I for one, love movies, and two I love knowing things that actually interest me/involve things that are relevant to me.
