Although moviestars make good money doing their movies they sometimes get offered roles in commercials. Many moviestars don’t appear in commercials in the US, but do appear outside of it. In this series I will look at one actor or actress and select a couple of their funny commercials.
This week’s star is Terry Crews and as you can imagine these are fun to watch. Have a great weekend everyone! Continue reading
Since the start of the internet a lot of things have changed in the way people do business. You used to have to go to a shop and listen to someone in a store to tell you everything about a product without knowing if they were making stuff up. With a bit of googling you can now find more information about a product yourself. As a result the function of a shop has changed quite drastically.

Besides that I loved the martial arts movies starring Jean-Claude van Damme, Steven Seagal and Eric Roberts (Best of the Best). The were all “high adrenaline” movies which usually didn’t have great stories, but they made up for it with lots of action scenes. Over the years these type of movies have become less popular and there don’t seem to be as many of them made anymore. Continue reading
