Movie Credits Should Include Prices

The credits for movies would be a lot more interesting if they listed the prices for everything, including everyone's salaries. I would be a lot more likely to watch them.

Someone else suggested just having a meter run in the corner, but Chris says "Pop-Up Videos" alread did this, and besides, I am ademently opposed to extra content in the corners of things. I got particularly irritated at the little slasher animation for that show about the plastic surgeons that ran during the "24" marathon.

Wow. This has been a fecund day for blogging.

I think the pricing would make you sick and you would never want to watch another movie or TV show again. I have been on a few sets for commercials and crap and it is amazing how many people just stand around all day(on a union wage, no less), drinking coffee, petting the cats, waiting for their 5 minute job to come around. Not to mention all the boyfriends and grilfriends who just pop by to see what's up. My latest experience showed me the guy who just repeats everything the director says only louder. I want that job.

Have you ever heard of "Girls Gone Wild"? It was really an internal Sony commercial filmed at my mom's crib, complete with real AND imaginary dogs taking a bath.

i want to know more about the imaginary dogs taking a bath. were they imaginary dogs taking an imaginary bath, or imaginary dogs taking a real bath? and if they were imaginary dogs taking an imaginary bath, how could you tell they were imaginary dogs and not, say, imaginary cockatoos?
