How the Entertainment Industry is Lacking Creativity...essay/speech by 14 year old girl. Rocket123 Feb 18, 16:30

Your daughter misses going to the movies. Come on Rocket, that's your cue. {nm} JMT-NL Feb 18, 16:50

I know, I feel terrible about it too. I drive by the theatre from time to time to see what is showing and just am not inspired. Rocket123 Feb 18, 20:28

Most impressive. Looking forward to her follow-up essay (tongue firmly in cheek). {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2012 Feb 18, 16:50

Barney Stinson's oldest rule: New is always better! {nm} Austinmh Feb 18, 17:06

She's 14 and she wrote this? Wow. (IM) Paul2k Feb 18, 17:08

I think you and your wife did a good job teaching her to think for herself, Rocket. That essay was extremely well-written. {nm} accountant_4_Jesus Feb 18, 17:23

We encourage free thought in my house. It's the only thing people can't control. What we think is ours alone. "Analytical" is in 'da genes. {nm} Rocket123 Feb 18, 20:43

That young lady has been granted an honorary Little Sistership at Delta House. She describes deftly the reason the Deltas see approximately DTXbro Feb 18, 17:37

Thanks for the sentiment. Rocket123 Feb 18, 20:38

She did a magnificent job. Loved the essay. Now she should write about how it sucks to pay over 10 dollars to see a movie MasterofPinball1983 Feb 18, 18:00

Can we get her box office analysis for next weekend? {nm} dsbman Feb 18, 18:15

The dog might be offended, but I'll ask. {nm} Rocket123 Feb 18, 20:43

really great stuff.. just one question: Oleg Max Feb 18, 18:42

Well written and great thoughts....but its an english essay eored Feb 18, 18:44

Sorry, it was a speech. My bad for terming it an essay. Rocket123 Feb 18, 20:16

Honestly eored Feb 18, 21:48

It is not offensive. Thank you for your honest opinion while keeping in mind we lived in the US (vs how it's done in the North) {nm} PVL admin Feb 18, 21:53

I want to thank everyone for their comments and support, even the less flowery ones. But there was a point to this: Rocket123 Feb 18, 20:26

Encourage her to see ARITY this weekend. Or plan a holiday around a film festival, and buy her a pass. second gary Feb 18, 20:33

Those are really good suggestions! Thanks! I especially love the film festival holiday idea. I am sure she would love it. {nm} Rocket123 Feb 18, 20:40

There's always books. Jane_Citizen Feb 18, 20:48

Oh, we have books. tons and tons of freaking books. Who gets to pack and move the boxes? Me, that's who! :) Rocket123 Feb 18, 20:51

I dunno, I saw a lot of good movies last year. Sure, more were at the art-house than the megaplex, but they were all more or less accessible {nm} dsbman Feb 18, 21:05

Really???? What an opinion.... VictorY Feb 18, 21:20

I agree with her (duh), but I am hopeful that some people in Hollywood can and will deliver. ndmaster Feb 18, 20:35

Sorry Rocket123. OlegMax does have a valid point. RotoHockeyYTD2012 Feb 18, 22:32

Solid piece for a 14 year old and I do regret vearing towards anything but complemetary when dealing with the work of a kid but... BionicMoron Feb 19, 06:35
