Is the net "Boring" or just becoming like the movies – COPYCAT CRAP!

Mark Cuban is asking the blogosphere how to get more butts in seats at movie theaters without spending gobs of cash on marketing. I read about it in The Blogging Times and read a detailed post on a possible solution over at Chartreuse .Sorry Char! I say:

1. Better popcorn2. A Taser to zap talkers3. Lower prices4. Zitless staff that washes their hair (preferably not orange or streaky blue) and cuts their nails5. More porn (never fails especially in HDTV)6. BETTER F@#$CKING MOVIES.

By the way, I have left that message in thousands of suggestion boxes and even left the same note at the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem (pretty much whispered it into God’s ears). Nothing!

I love Cuban though he dissed me for playoff tickets. I like him asking his devoted readers for help. WHY NOT.

On the other hand, a week or so ago Cuban said the web is boring . Now has the gall to ask for help with movies. BUDDY – MOVIES ARE BORING.

Cuban knows the web is not boring and he is investing in all kinds of ventures to cash in on the future of the web. I see it as a challenge.

He means boring because he sees the copycat newbie internet entrepreneurs of today knock off successful ideas – get listed in Wikipedia and just truly bore us forever. It worries me too.

Now Cuban – pay me!

Knowing you won’t I have decided to start asking for my money back for every movie longer than 90 minutes and any movie that’s trailers are the best part. I suspect free movies forever. Too bad about the shitty popcorn.

Maybe the net is boring – but I like the price of admission and I make WICKED popcorn!
