by Chris Padgett on Jul.20, 2010, under Blogging

Post contributed by Toni Jensen

My brother has been using internet satellite to book vacations for years now. When we decided this summer we would vacation together, he insisited I book our vacation using satellite internet service California.We were traveling to spend the summer with our mother in Panama City Beach, and the trip from California would be long.

We wanted to enjoy some night-life while we were there, so I used my internet satellite to find out all the hottest spots in Panama City Beach! We chose some really great clubs to visit, and were not disappointed!I also found some interesting and informative sites about the city, along with savings on all the things we were looking for.I booked our flight with the site at a discount of 30% versus the airline directly! We were staying with my mother, but I also booked a few nights in a fabulous hotel,too,so we could enjoy a few brother and sister nights. The hotel was listed on my site and I was able to save a considerable amount with it too.

I am very glad that my brother convinved me to book our Panama City Beach vacation online.It was super easy and I saved a lot of time and a lot of money!

The Long and Ancient History of Gold

by Chris Padgett on Jun.17, 2010, under Blogging

You probably know about gold very well. Most people own something that contains gold. It is a valuable metal and is recognized as a valuable resource for just about every nation on the planet. For centuries now, people have learned that owning a piece of gold is the best way to preserve one’s wealth and this is still true today. All young people should strongly consider the idea to buy gold bars for their long term futures and wealth. No matter how bad the economy gets in America or the country you’re living in now, the odds are very low that gold will lose its value. This shinny yellow metal has been known to hold its value through the centuries of time and no reason to think why the future would be any different. Many different cultures at some point in their existence, knew the value of gold and how it did have a shelf-life with no expiration date. This was true for the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians; who all sought gold bullion and the powers that came with gold. Many people living in the United States today, has heard stories of the gold rushes during our short history in North America. People living in the East would load up everything they owned, so they could head West to California, in the hopes they would strike it rich. Gold was also discovered in Alaska in huge quantities and there is still people mining the gold in Alaska today. Every U.S. State has had some form of commercial mining for gold at some point in history, with the exception of Kentucky and Hawaii. That doesn’t mean there isn’t gold in Kentucky or Hawaii, it just means a professional mining outfit has never set up in those 2 states. If you would like to own gold today, you have 2 ways to get it. You can go buy it from a top-notch dealer like the United States Gold Bureau or you can go out and prospect it for your self. History has proven that anyone owning gold, will be rewarded one day for their prize possession.

Hot in Cleveland with Betty White

by Chris Padgett on Jun.16, 2010, under Favorite Sitcom

The last of the Golden Girls is giving it one more try on the big stage. The elderly Betty White is now appearing in a new TV show called Hot in Cleveland. I watch the premiere episode tonight on the TV Land network. This new sit-com features Valeire Bertinelli, Jane Leeves, and Wendie Malick. This show started off with a plane trip to Paris, France, but the plane has trouble and goes in for a crash landing. The plane doesn’t actually crash, but instead it lands in Cleveland, Ohio. From there, the 3 friends decide to go to a bar, where they sit with 3 guys. Valerie’s character falls in love with one of them, but it turns out he (John Schneider from the Dukes of Hazard and Smallville) is married. Betty White’s character comes in as a caretaker for a home that Valerie Betinelli wants to buy in Cleveland. Now instead of going to Paris, it appears the girls are going to set up shop in Cleveland and continue with their story.

The show has already had one LeBron James joke, since he’s a big time star for the Cleveland Cavaliers NBA basketball team and a Drew Carey joke too, who is also from the Cleveland area. In Valerie’s old role as Barbara on the TV show One Day at a Time, I bet they never did a joke around the search engine Google. In her new show, Hot in Cleveland, they made two different references to the Google search engine. The first time was for the bar they found in Cleveland and another time was for when they decided to Google Valerie’s new love interest. So a lot has changed for this lady actress who was big a long time ago and now tries to start up a new TV show; along side the legendary actress Betty White.

New Karate Kid Movie a Success

by Chris Padgett on Jun.14, 2010, under Favorite Movie

New Karate Kid Movie

The new Karate Kid movie that is currently in theaters is on its way to a huge success in the movie industry. The movie’s star is Jayden Smith, who is the son of the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air or Will Smith. If Jayden continues to land big roles like he did with the remake of the 1984 Karate Kid movie, he won’t be known for being Will’s son for too much longer; as he will carve out his own name in the film industry. I hope to see this movie soon, because I did hear it was worth the price of admission. It does look like it would be a pretty good movie, judging by a few of the previews I have seen.

I even think the cast and crew of the original Karate Kid movie would give these guys an applause on the job they did with the remake of the movie that starred Ralph Macho and Arnold (Pat Morita) from Happy Days. The teacher, who was played by Pat Morita, in the first Karate Kid movie died back in November of 2005. He has a very interesting story growing up with all of the health problems he was suffering from in Northern California. Now his memory can continue to live on in the great roles he played in during his time in Hollywood. I think most would agree that Jayden Smith will be just as popular and successful as Mr. Miyagi was; considering the head start this youngster has got with his movie roles and the TV appearances he has made on The Suite Life of Zack and Cody and All of Us. Please feel free to leave your reviews or opinions about the new Karate Kid movie that is now playing in theaters nationwide.

World Demand for Silver Very High

by Chris Padgett on Jun.03, 2010, under Finance

The world demand for silver is now higher than the annual production of silver. The markets are always controlled by supply and demand. When the demand is greater than the supply, you know the prices will go up. This is why it would be wise to buy silver bullion from the United States Gold Bureau right now. They’re one of the best precious metals dealers in the Country. Their dedicated staff of employees can help you to get in on this hot investment choice for 2010. You have different ways to choose from, on the way you want to invest in silver. You can arrange for a silver delivery; where you could get silver coins delivered to your doorsteps. Or you could just invest in silver and have your investment to be stored in a depository or independent bank. We may never see an opportunity like this again in silver. This is truly a once in a lifetime situation, for those investors that seek to make money for the long term investment in silver. Go do your homework now and see if a silver investment is right for your financial portfolio.

Braves Heyward for Homerun Derby

by Chris Padgett on Jun.03, 2010, under Favorite Blog

I hope the Atlanta Braves rookie right-fielder Jason Heyward or the “Say Hey Kid” will get to be one of the NL sluggers in the Homerun Derby. I like watching the home run derby during the All Star Break. I think it will be on the 2nd Tuesday in July for the All Star Game. The Home Run Derby usually takes place on the Monday before the Tuesday All Star Game. The Atlanta Braves are in first place right now, so that should help to draw attention to Jason Heyward. I believe his smooth and easy stroke would be perfect for a home run derby event.

Jason started off hitting 6th for the Braves. He is currently hitting in the 2 hole or 2nd in the line-up. His hot bat has cooled down in recent games, but he’s still hitting the ball hard. He has just missed on about 5 homerun balls in the last few days. Heyward and the Braves are now traveling out to Los Angeles to face the LA Dodgers. I look for the Say Hey Kid to rock 1 or 2 out of Dodger Stadium this weekend. It will be a 4 game series and it should be interesting to see if the Braves can keep their 8 game winning streak alive against the Dodgers. It’s gonna be a tough road trip for Jason Heyward and the Atlanta Braves. Let’s just hope the Braves and Heyward look good in California, so the Braves can pick up a few more All Star votes for the players that are deserving on their roster right now. I really hope Jason Heyward gets his chance in the 2010 Home Run Derby; which will be in Anaheim this year.

My Favorite Free Online Games

by Chris Padgett on May.22, 2010, under Favorite Poker Games

I have a lot of free online games I like to play. Gamers have a lot to choose from these days, so it’s hard to just pick one free online game that is your favorite. I recently started playing this free online game Ninja Dive. It’s a pretty cool game and one you should try, if you never played it before. I won’t give away any of the surprises or how you play this free game, but you should “dive” in (pun intended) and play Ninja Dive online. Its just one of the 1000′s and 1000′s of games available online you can play for no cost.

The video games you have to pay for these days is getting a little too expensive. I have seen video games selling online for 100 dollars or more. I can’t afford to pay for video games like this. I know some of the newer games like Singularity and Heavy Rain are very popular, but you really have to love your video games to want to play them. Since they do cost more than the video games we were buying in the 1990′s. I don’t think some people know about the free video games online and how they can play thousands of these for absolutely no cost.

I know parents get scared sometimes; when they see some of these new video games coming out for their kids. Mom and Dad don’t have to look hard online for suitable games for the younger kids. The Free Kid Games Online are very tame and no parent in the world would mind letting their children play these games. You just have to search for the ones that are right for them. I know parents want to stay away from a lot of the action games that involve shooting or show blood in the graphics. The folks that design these free online games know this and that’s why they created a ton of free kid games online for all ages.

Playing games online is a good way to relax too. If you can get involved in a good video game, it’s just like a book or movie you get interested in. Once a game grabs your attention, you want to continue, so you can see what’s next. I think we all want to see what the next level looks like or we want to beat our high score, so we keep playing the game, only to see it keeps going and going. It is a lot like the Energizer Bunny that likes to keeping going and going. Now that I have video games on the brain, I believe I will go find a good one to go play. I guess I will go back and play that Ninja game some more.

Maurice Cheeks for the New Atlanta Hawks Head Coach

by Chris Padgett on May.15, 2010, under Blogging

Let’s start to get happy in Atlanta. Our two biggest problems don’t seem like a problem at all right now. Joe Johnson is on the way out and that’s good news! Mike Woodson lost his job in the ATL and that’s even better news! Now let’s not mess this thing up anymore Atlanta and go with a coach that can get you an NBA ring. You won’t find a better coach than Maurice Cheeks the former NBA player and head coach for the Portland Trailblazers and Philadelphia 76ers. Cheeks is currently an assistant coach with the Oklahoma City Thunder and you seen how that team came to life this year. Maurice Cheeks is a big reason why and you must hire this guy for the Atlanta Hawks.

If you watched the 76ers basketball team a couple of years back, you saw what an athletic team could look like running up and down the court. Cheeks had those young stallions in Philly playing better than the Hawks more veteran and more athletic team 2 years ago. I think Maurice Cheeks would be the perfect fit for the Atlanta Hawks new head coaching job. If you want a winning basketball program in Georgia, let’s get this guy in here now, so we can watch our team play up to their full abilities. Maurice Cheeks would be the perfect hire for the Hawks and I don’t see no other head coach I would want right now. He’s the best man for the job and a man the team would support. Cheeks is a good guy and the type of coach players will want to play for. He doesn’t have a coaching system, he coaches to his players strengths and that’s why he would make a perfect head coach for the Atlanta Hawks.

A cosmetology school in Virginia is ready to take in new students that have dreams of working in the beauty shops across the country. The school’s name is the Regency Beauty Institute and they are really growing fast right now. In the past 8 years, these two Minnesota beauty schools has grown to 30 and located in 9 different states. They continue to grow and a new Regency Beauty Institute is popping up all the time. A person that seeks a job in the cosmetology field, should check out this school and learn why it is the fastest growing beauty school right now in the country. This is a good sign to look for, if you’re interested in a career in this line of work. It should be real easy for those living inside the borders of Virginia to find a Regency school near them!

Freddy Returns to Do Another Nightmare on Elm Street

by Chris Padgett on Apr.24, 2010, under Favorite Movie

New 2010 Movie with Freddy Krueger

You thought the nightmare was over? Well I did and I’m sure millions of others did too. However, this is Hollywood we are talking about and we all know money is the King at the end of the day. That money will come in the form of horror and your lead guide will be none other than Freddy Krueger. The new 2010 movie Nightmare on Elm Street is set to hit theaters next Friday on April 30th. I probably don’t have the time or money to catch this one in theaters, but I know a lot of Nightmare on Elm Street fans will show up to watch. I will have to wait for this one to come to satellite or I might fork out a little money to watch it on Pay Per View. I love the Nightmare movies. My favorite Nightmare on Elm Street was the first one. I think the original Nightmare on Elm Street was one of my top 5 greatest horror movies of all time. Since this new movie in 2010 carries the same name as the first Elm Street horror flick, we may just see a recreation of the first movie? I didn’t want to read too much of the details on it to find out. I like to be surprised and I still have 6+ months to wait on that surprise, since I have no immediate plans to go watch Freddy Krueger in theaters on April 30th or any of the later dates. Do you plan to watch the latest Freddy movie? What is your overall thoughts on the series of movies that call their self the Nightmare on Elm Street movies? I do know that Freddy has got more funny as these movies progressed over time. From the previews they’re currently showing for the April 30th Nightmare on Elm Street, I don’t see any comedy yet. I’m sure he’s got some great lines in there, but maybe they decided to go back to more scary than funny?

Yellow Metal is Still the Safest Bet

by Chris Padgett on Apr.24, 2010, under Finance

That yellow metal, better known as gold on Wall Street is what investors are flocking to these days. Investments have always been a risk to investors, but now a lot of people that keep a daily eye on the Street up in New York want something to show for their investment dollars. People choosing to buy gold bullion is the safest way to go and gives investors something solid they can hold in their hands. Not many other investments like this on Wall Street and no one really knows when the stocks will rebound. The last gold prices I saw was around $1100 an ounce and I believe we were within $10 to $20 of a new high in gold prices. This trend may continue and gold prices have plenty of space to grow in this shaky economy. If the U.S. dollar weakens and things in Europe continue to weaken, this means something around the world is increasing in value. That something is gold and its the main beneficiary; when it comes to bad financial news for this country and overseas. Gold bullion is something adults should consider investing in and this is really a good investment to make for our kids and their futures. No one knows what the future will hold, but we do know gold has a very long history of retaining its value. No safer investments currently exist and everyone should increase their financial portfolios for more gold and gold related investments. Those that own the yellow metal may be smiling for a long time, if gold does see a new high in 2010.

Atlanta Falcons Not Doing Well in the 2010 NFL Draft

by Chris Padgett on Apr.23, 2010, under Blogging

The National Football League got things underway Thursday night; when they began their draft that will take place over a 3 day period. The first 2 days are in the books and the Atlanta Falcons are struggling badly. They have failed to land any quality players yet. They also passed up on a local wide receiver that played his college ball in Atlanta at Georgia Tech. The Falcons need a good core of receivers to add to their franchise player Matt Ryan. The quarterback is important for all football teams, but Ryan is the star player in the ATL. Why Atlanta won’t build around him, is beyond me. Demaryius Thomas from the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets would have filled a big void on the team and he was available at 19; which the Falcons passed on, to take a linebacker from Missouri that brings no star power to the team. A bad draft and no big splashes in the free agent market yet, is leaving the Dirty Birds behind the rest of the NFC South; which is improving this off season. The Dunta Robinson signing for our secondary is the biggest thing Atlanta has done this off season and he’s nothing to get excited about. Atlanta slipped this past season from their impressive start with rookie QB Matt Ryan. Their decline in his sophomore year looks to be a pattern the Falcons are in right now and we are probably looking at a 6 and 10 season this year. Unless a miracle finds a path into Hartsfield Airport and we can snag a couple of really good football players, instead of these mediocre players they seem to go after each year. No star power coming to Atlanta and no playoffs for the Dirty Birds in 2010/2011 season, that’s for sure!

The Atlanta Falcons Draft Board for 2010 (first 2 days)

#19 Sean Weatherspoon- Short linebacker that doesn’t get off blocks from linemen. Good speed in the open field, so will prevent the other teams from hitting the home run play, but won’t have enough physical power to stop NFL running backs at the line of scrimmage.

#83 Corey Peters- SEC player is the only bright thing on the resume here. Will be another wasted pick for D-Line in Hotlanta. The number 2 overall pick from Nebraska was the guy the Falcons could have used and been their dream defensive linemen. Failing to pay the high price tags for the T-Bone steak players, is one of the reasons that make the Falcons a chopped liver team in the NFL.

#98 Mike Johnson- Congrats on back to back SEC players! Johnson only makes the team, due to the lack of depth the Falcons have in the talent pool. This kid from Bama wouldn’t make the team for half of the teams in the NFL.

No offensive weapons for Matt Ryan to develop into the next great QB in this league. I’m sure he will welcome free agency and don’t be surprised to see Matt Ryan playing for the Houston Texans or Arizona Cardinals; when he departs the Peach State.

Alvin and the Chipmunks are Back

by Chris Padgett on Apr.07, 2010, under Favorite Movie

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Alvin and the Chipmunks. All opinions are 100% mine.

The gang’s all back and now you can take them home! That’s right, you can now get Alvin and the Chipmunks at home on DVD, Blu-ray, or download it from your computer in digital quality. You can buy it now and get the double DVD pack which will contain Alvin and the Chipmunks the Squeakquel movie and also get The Squeak Along bonus disc! This is a great way to take advantage of the 2nd Alvin and the Chipmunks movie; for those fans that couldn’t get enough of the first Alvin and the Chipmunks movie.

Alvin!

You can hear Dave now screaming at the Chipmunks, but mainly Alvin of course. I grew up with the Chipmunks and always loved them. I use to have a big poster in my bedroom that had Alvin and the Chipmunks on it. I use to own their album Urban Chipmunk that had black borders and Alvin in the middle dressed up like a cowboy.  He was standing up on a bar stool and sipping some drink from a straw at the bar. Some of the songs on that album was I Love a Rainy Night, The Gambler, Coward of the County, and On the Road Again. This came out in the early 1980′s and it was my first introduction to Alvin and the Chipmunks. There was also a cartoon that would come on Saturday mornings that featured Alvin and the Chipmunks. Now we don’t have Saturday morning cartoons, since cartoons can be seen 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. Not as much excitement for the younger generation to watch those Saturday morning cartoons like we use to do back in the 1980′s.

Parents wanting to keep the Chipmunks memory alive or want to share this singing treasure with their kids, can get the double DVD pack and have the ability to watch it over and over as many times as you want. You can also go online and enjoy more More Munk Mayhem with your kids. It was a little sad to see Alvin and the Chipmunks vanish there for awhile, but now they are back and their characters have came to life in these new Hollywood movies.

Playing the Daily Traffic Game

by Chris Padgett on Apr.06, 2010, under SEO

Another day on the computer and that means another day to try and direct more traffic to my websites. It’s a constant battle for webmasters seeking to gain more exposure online for their websites. The sites that get the most traffic, usually do the best in the search engines. All traffic is good traffic, but there are some types of traffic that is better than others.

Traffic that stays at your website for long periods of time is good traffic. The traffic that clicks on links and browses more than 1 page of your website is also good traffic. The traffic that shows up for 5 to 15 seconds isn’t that good and the search engines keep up with information like this. If you can find ways to direct traffic to your site and keep them there, you should see better rankings in the search engines. It’s an old SEO tip and one that continues to work in 2010. I don’t have the answers on how to obtain traffic like this and the daily game of trying to direct more traffic to my websites continue. Perhaps you have found some effective methods on getting your visitors to stay longer at your website. If so, please feel free to share your tips here and reply back with any good traffic suggestions.

Modern Day Gold Prospectors

by Chris Padgett on Apr.02, 2010, under Blogging

Gold Still To Be Found…

A lot has changed in the ways we go about looking for gold and in some ways nothing has changed. Gold is still valuable and if you can find enough of it, this precious shinny metal can make you very rich. Just look at George “Buzzard” Massie who decades ago showcased about 1.5 million dollars worth of gold on the Merv Griffin Show. That gold is worth a whole lot more today and the gold on the Merv Griffin Show is probably gone now; just like the untimely passing of the Buzzard back in 1993. While lots of gold was taking from the hills, mountains, rivers, and streams of this great country; a lot more gold still remains out there for anyone willing to look for it.

I’m surprised we don’t have more people out prospecting for gold than we do today. Especially in recent years and watching an ounce of gold soar to over $1,000. I think anyone would be smart to check the backyard and local streams for a little color and see if they can find any gold in their parts of the world. All states in the northern part of the country was covered by ice. The glaciers back from the Ice Age left gold in all the states in the northern regions. The gold found in the South came from a result of the African continent riding over this land more than 250 million years ago. If you live in the United States, there is a good chance gold is nearby you. Obviously the deposits are greater in some areas compared to other areas.

The modern day prospectors can still find this gold. As Tom Massie, the son of George Massie, always like to say “the old timers didn’t find all of that gold and there is still some out there to be found“. I know this has led me to have “gold fever” and I began my search today looking for gold. I didn’t have any luck, but did find some good deposits of black sand. This black sand is heavy and goes to the bottom of your gold pan like gold does. Where you find gold, you will always have black sand. However, there isn’t gold in all the places where you find black sand. I was just happy to get outdoors and began my panning techniques. I have been watching the gold shows that come on the Outdoor Channel for the last 6 months. I picked up a lot of good panning techniques and I believe mine are good enough to find some gold. It’s just a matter of finding places now and discovering where that gold is hiding. I do expect to find some gold this summer and that’s pretty much my plans for this year. You can add my name to the list of modern day prospectors and hopefully I will find enough gold somewhere to be known as a legend one day and have my name added to the list of names that make up the Georgia gold stories in my state.

Remember Joan Jett and the Blackhearts?

by Chris Padgett on Mar.02, 2010, under Favorite Video

Crimson & Clover by Joan Jett
YouTube Preview Image

Now I always liked this song by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. I think Crimson and Clover was one of those songs that took a backseat to their most famous song. Do you remember what the name of that song was? If you said I Love Rock N’ Roll; then you would be correct! Don’t get me wrong, I love the song I Love Rock n’ Rolland it was one I listened to many times. It’s the song I think of first when I think about the lady of rock n’ roll Joan Jett. It wasn’t until I went to a Atlanta Thrashers hockey game a few years back; when I really got a chance to hear the song Crimson and Clover. A concert late at night after a hockey game and hearing this song sung by the famous Joan Jett, just put you in a setting like you were some where else. It was on this night when I really fell in love with this song.

 

Just recently I saw a movie on TV and this song Crimson & Cloverwas played during a big climax in the movie. It was a perfect touch for that movie and I remember that scene very well. I really miss the songs from the 1980′s and often I will watch channel 6008 on Dishnetwork satellite, because this is one of the Sirius music channels and they play nothing but 80′s music here. They also offer music channels for other decades of music like the 1950′s, 1960′s, 1970′s and I believe they have one for the 1990′s now. It’s hard to believe that 2010 is already here and music has changed so much over the last 60 years.

 

Did you grow up during the 1980′s? Please feel free to share some of the songs you liked from the 80′s decade and do you remember some of these songs that got played on the radio back in the 1980′s generation:

 

1. Sister Christian by Night Ranger

2. Celebration by Kool and the Gang

3. Jessie’s Girl by Rick Springfield

4. Jack and Diane by John Cougar

5. Gloria by Laura Branigan

6. Open Arms by Journey

7. 867-5309 Jennny by Tommy Tutone

8. You Dropped a Bomb on Me  by the Gap Band

9. Toto by Africa

10. Down Under by Men at Work

11. Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Tyler

12. Electric Avenue by Eddy Grant

13. Every Breath You Take by the Police

14. Hungry Like the Wolf by Duran Duran

15. Cum on Feel the Noize by Quiet Riot

16. Puttin on the Ritz by Taco

17. She Blinded Me with Science by Thomas Dolby

18. 1999 by Prince

19. Billie Jean by Michael Jackson

20. Mexican Radio by Wall of Voodoo

21. Footloose by Kenny Loggins

22. Ghostbusters by Ray Parker Jr.

23. Hello by Lionel Richie

24. Jump by Van Halen

25. Karma Chamelon by Boy George

26. 99 Luftballoons by Nena

27. Somebody’s Watching Me by Rockwell

28. We’re Not Gonna Take It by Twisted Sister

29. Money for Nothing by Dire Straight

30. Amanda by Boston

 

I could go on and on with all the great music from the 1980′s decade. I’m sure you know a few of the songs above and for people that were in high school during the 1980′s generation; will know a lot of these songs well. I know going to the local skating rink and hearing these songs or a song like I love Rock N’ Roll by Joan Jett or Hurts So Good by John Cougar Mellancamp are just a couple of those songs that can take us back down memory lane again. I treasure the songs from the 80′s singers and bands. A lot of good music got made back then and it seem the lyrics is what made them so good. Today’s music is more about the music than the actual lyrics and I guess that’s why I’m not a big fan of modern music. I do try to stay hip and keep up with the latest artists coming out, but put the radio dial in my hand and we will be listening to the songs from the 1980′s generation. Feel free to name a few popular songs you remember from the 1980′s and which song or songs stick out in your head. I’m sure Joan Jett and the Blackhearts has to make most people’s top 10 list; when they look back on the great songs from this period in music.

New Movies Topping the Charts

by Chris Padgett on Mar.01, 2010, under Favorite Movie

The past weekend’s box office results is quite different from what we have been use to. This is the way the top 10 movies came out of the latest box office scores.

1. Shutter Island

2. Cop Out

3. The Crazies

4. Avatar

5. Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief

6. Valentine’s Day

7. Dear John

8. The Wolfman

9. Tooth Fairy

10. Crazy Heart

 

Have you seen any of those top 10 movies? I still haven’t seen Avatar yet and it’s hard to believe this movie is still making the top 10 list. It must be a really good movie and it’s had more success than any other movie in box office history. I do think Shutter Island would be a good movie to see and I can see why it’s currently number 1 at the box office.

 

There are a few more good movies set to make their debut this upcoming Friday. This week’s debuts will be headlined by a classic story and one that many of us know. The name of this movie will be called Alice in Wonderland. Other movies that will start this Friday in theaters will be Brooklyn’s Finest, The Secret of Kells, and Stolen. So this weekend is a good time to go see movies that made the top 10 last weekend or to see one of the new movies that will be coming out this Friday.
