Today’s youngsters find the movie theater or the box office as a dating mecca for their generation. They found the seats and the theater a sacred ground for winning over the love of their loves.

The box office theaters have played countless times the role of cupid in the lives of numerous couples. But long before the movie theater turned into the house of hearts, the box office served as one of the most popular pastimes. T

his was way before the invention of the television when the motion picture that was dubbed as “the silent movies” started it all for the box office industry and the moving picture business.

The introduction of the motion picture to the public sky rocketed the growth of the box office industry.

Movie theater after movie theater was built at the time of the motion picture revolution because of the countless masses that wanted to have the chance to see the incredible moving pictures, the need for more movie theaters grew steadily over this period.

During this time, the box office has made for itself a niche in the society. As the time passed the motion picture industry decided to take a bold leap forward and looked for ways on how to develop and integrate sound into the moving picture.

Countless hours were spent on integrating the sound into the silent movies and the end result made the box office industry raked in more green backs from countless movie aficionados.

And the movie industry continuously creates more and more ideas to improve the people’s movie experience and make falling in line in the box office worth it.

Among the many innovations and the revolutionary developments in the box office and motion picture industry is the introduction and assimilation of special effects into the movie production process.

The first manifestation of the integration of special effects in the movies was the creation of fake blood and claymation. This was the height of special effects at that period.

Countless movies have deployed claymation effects and a lot of movie animation to let the story come alive and let the people that they have to be thankful to the highest power and the Gods of movies because of the box office event.

A box office hit during those days would consist of the most potent formula of love story/love triangle, special effects and a grand battle between the forces of the good and the evil.

Of course, the special effects departments owe it to themselves to further develop their craft for the moviegoers and the box office itself.

Over the years, they have thought of making more elements of the special effects business and the special effects side of the motion picture as real as it seems.

In the 80s, the “in” thing became the animatronics or the art of making electronic skeletoids move and act like real life animals. Countless movies have deployed the use of animatronics.

And when people thought everything about special effects for the “would-be” box office hits in the movie industry seemed to have been thought of, the special effects proved people wrong.

Like the wizards, more and more creative people have come up with innovative ideas and creations using the advent of technology with computers as a medium. The use of computers or digital animation became an effective tool to further enhance special effects.

Computer generated images, also known as CGI were infused to the box office. These innovations were melded with the light and magic created by moviemakers, thus, continued to weave more breakthrough and commendable box office hit.

These box office hits made people believe that the box office world is the real world and they are really a part of that world.

So, if there’s nothing you and your friends can do on a hot afternoon, go down town, visit the little box office with the lady inside. Buy popcorn, relax, and jut plain cold chill while you watch the movie. Enjoy.

1). Alias (Season 3) DVD Review By : Britt Gillette One of the highest rated shows of its era, Alias maintains a loyal cult following swept away by its intriguing suspense and action-packed drama. Jennifer Garner stars in the lead role of Sydney Anne Bristow, a beautiful and cerebral recruit tasked to work for a secret government entity, the SD-6 agency. But problems confront her when she eventually realizes that SD-6 is not the government agency she thinks.
2). Star Trek (Season 3) DVD Review By : Britt Gillette Winner of countless awards and unsurpassed audience devotion, the original Star Trek TV series follows the adventures of the crew aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise as they “boldly go where no man has gone before…” Led by Captain Kirk (William Shatner), an astronaut who displays the character traits necessary for the Earth mission’s survival, the Enterprise crew includes Lt.
3). How The Grinch Stole Christmas (DVD) Review By : Britt Gillette One of a handful of essential, "must-see" animated Christmas classics, How The Grinch Stole Christmas is a Dr. Seuss holiday masterpiece. Created in 1966 on the heels of the phenomenal success surrounding such TV specials as A Charlie Brown Christmas (1965) and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer (1964), the Grinch has morphed into a sacred annual Christmas rite perfect for any child from one to ninety-two.
4). Hostel By : Sam Vaknin The movie "Hostel" (2005) is a potent depiction of gore and graphic horror. More subtly, it is also a counterfactual and jingoistic political allegory for the post 9-11 age. A couple of wholesome American youths (one of them a Jew) are nabbed by a ring of east Europeans who cater to the depraved needs of sadists by providing them with fresh supplies of torture victims.
5). The Simpsons (Season 3) DVD Review By : Britt Gillette In the late-1980s, a one-minute segment on The Tracy Ullman Show (since long forgotten, except in trivia questions) morphed into its own series. That series was The Simpsons, and it became an anchor for the then-burgeoning FOX network. With a wildly original cast of oddball characters, The Simpsons instantly struck a chord with audiences, becoming the longest running prime time show among all genres, not just the animation genre.
6). Macgyver (Season 3) DVD Review By : Britt Gillette One of the best shows of the 1980s, MacGyver has a dedicated fan base even to this day. Richard Dean Anderson plays the role of MacGyver, a cerebral and charismatic agent of the Phoenix Foundation for Research. A different hero even by the standards of today’s TV series, MacGyver had an exaggerated fear of heights. He was also a pacifist who never relied on weapons, but instead on the ability to deploy his brain and think his way out of dangerous situations.
7). King Of The Hill (DVD) Review By : Britt Gillette Initially aired following the 1997 Super Bowl, King of the Hill discovered an instant audience niche that has the followed the show loyally ever since. The brainchild of Beavis and Butthead creator Mike Judge (also known for the hit movie Office Space), King of the Hill is a unique animated series in that it doesn't rely on "cartoon" suspension of reality or outlandish antics.
8). The Matrix By : Sam Vaknin It is easy to confuse the concepts of "virtual reality" and a "computerized model of reality (simulation)". The former is a self-contained Universe, replete with its "laws of physics" and "logic". It can bear resemblance to the real world or not. It can be consistent or not. It can interact with the real world or not. In short, it is an arbitrary environment.
9). ER (DVD) Review By : Britt Gillette Nominated for 25 Golden Globes and 110 Emmys, including 7 for Outstanding Drama Series, ER has long been one of the best prime-time shows on television. Premiering in September 1994 on NBC, the hour-long hospital drama vividly illustrates the intensity and fast-paced stress endemic to hospital emergency rooms across America. Brought into being by Michael.
10). The Dukes Of Hazzard (Season 4) DVD Review By : Britt Gillette For much of the early 1980s, the CBS prime time line-up was dominated by two shows: Dallas and The Dukes Of Hazzard. Following the adventures of the fictional Duke family of Hazzard County, Georgia, the series chronicled their endless struggles with local law enforcement officer Rosco P. Coltrane and his domineering supervisor, J.D. "Boss" Hogg. Cousins.

3). Just Like Heaven (DVD) Review By : Britt Gillette One of the hidden gems of 2005, Just Like Heaven was overshadowed by the usual commercial blockbusters and Academy Award nominees. But this cute little film is the very embodiment of the movie going experience. Fitting easily into the “chick flick” genre, Just Like Heaven isn’t a sappy, drawn-out love story filled with clichés and over-the-top dialogue.
4). North And South (DVD) Review By : Britt Gillette Based on the best-selling novels by John Jakes, North And South premiered as a highly celebrated and critically acclaimed television series in 1985. In the spirit of Gone With The Wind, the novels cover 19th Century America before, during, and after the Civil War. As with the Margaret Mitchell classic, Jakes creates a larger-than-life cast of characters.
5). Family Guy (Season 3) DVD Review By : Britt Gillette Having first aired after the 1999 Super Bowl, Family Guy really hit its stride via cable re-runs and DVD sales (prompting Fox to announce the launch of Season 4 in May 2005, following the show's original cancellation following Season 3). An animated series building a similar cult following to The Simpsons and Futurama, Family Guy employs its own unique brand of humor distinct to its other animated peers… Family Guy follows the life and exploits of Peter Griffin, an idiotic family man flanked by his intelligent and loving wife, Lois.

The creation of former Los Angeles police officer Gene Roddenberry, the series first aired in Fall 1966 but was cancelled because of low ratings. It might have been NBC executives who were really responsible for the low ratings seeing as how they placed the show in a horrible time slot.
