Opinari.net

Opinari - Latin term for Opinion. Opinari.net is just what it seems: a cornucopia of rants, raves and poignant soliloquy.

Glenn Reynolds posts a reader email about Call of Duty 4:

"So, if as Hollywood whines that the public doesn' t want Iraqi War movies, why is this selling so well, top of the rental lists, and ever so popular? At this rate it'll be the successful game companies, that gives the pubic what they want, who'll buy out the studios for their IP and name. Hollywood appears to have missed the impact of the technological shift as badly as MSM has. The public is getting the entertainment they crave, just not in the form that the old gatekeepers dispense."

Let's tie this sentiment back into the writers' strike. How about we use this occasion to simply get rid of the product that is out there and replace it with "what the public wants"? Anyone want to wager that a positive movie about the Iraq War would be a huge draw? I know I would pay to see it.
