video game industry

I don't believe they should just cut them loose because an idea isn't popular among gamers. After all it's not their fault the general public doesn't like it. It just another chance to try and find something new for us and if it becomes poplar then it does if not then it's just a back to the drawing board situation. Companies won't make a lot of money like they'd like too if they keep doing that eventually ending up with no creators and no profits.

Argo Wired Article Blog 5

            I think the connection between Hollywood and the military is good in some cases but in others is just a bit odd. The good cases would be where the people portraying military personnel actually have prior experience with it and know how to do it accurately where as the odd situations are where they clearly have never played a military role before and act more like civilians. The movies like Act Of Valor are better when ran by military personnel and portrayed by them as well so that they are more accurate. Movies and Television shows like Forest Gump and Saving Private Ryan along with JAG and Mash portray only one side of the situation and not both which is what Act Of Valor did. Depending on what side of the situation being portrayed is meant to be seen it can go either way with the military being in charge or the film crew and director being in charge. One movie where the military being in charge would've been a bad thing is definitely The A-Team because the military would've never allowed them to do everything they did.
