From what I gather, your degree in transportation management won't let you open a tourism or hospitality business on your own.

Your best bet? Find someone who actually graduated from culinary or hospitality school to act as the official owner on paper—while the money flows directly to you. Just draw up a partnership agreement and call it a day.

UU Yeah!

Maybe we can get MP Thompson to score the soundtrack—and have Thomislava play Mićo Škoro.

Oh, and I want Mate Bulić and Tiho Orlić in the cast too... and... and... let's have Dr. Sanders Zlatoprsti handle the storytelling.

That scene in "Reverend Ted"—where Dougal’s milk truck loses its brakes—is just too damn good... pure cinema.🙏

Can we not just come up with something genuinely original for once?

Because we’re lazy. Plain and simple.

Supposedly the book is total garbage—you’ll just have to wait and see how the movie turns out...

Zimmer 🙏 👍

Can't wait😈

If he had a bit more capital, he might actually stand a chance against Lucas—as it stands, he’s just sitting at number two in terms of marketability. He absolutely squeezes every single cent out of every film until there's nothing left.

Judging by the rating on IMDb, it’s supposed to be a masterpiece... 👍

There are programs out there like that, but honestly? It’s hardly worth the headache—way too many mistakes being made...

Honestly, you guys have way too high expectations...

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest is two hours of pure entertainment. You won't be sitting around pondering its deep philosophical meaning once the credits roll—but you'll definitely have a blast during those two hours.

Digital Ocean said:That was a lifetime ago. Lenny barely moved two thousand tickets when he played Washington, D.C.—that’s why the whole thing imploded. As for RS? Maybe if it were 1968, we'd call it the concert of the century, but thank God it's not happening today! 🙏

The sky-high ticket prices are to blame.

Metallica and Lenny were paired up for Coachella. Instead of actually building a real festival—you know, one with a solid lineup of local bands and actual events surrounding the music—they just split the two headliners up. It's hardly even a festival when the artists bring their own stages instead of using the festival's setup. Then, they slap those ridiculous prices on you.

Some people just lack common sense. They had a golden opportunity right in front of them. Even a child could have heard about Coachella given how much they blasted it on TV.

If they had just booked everything for two days straight—a full schedule featuring Metallica, Lenny, Foo Fighters, Green Day, Soundgarden, Eddie Vedder, and a few others—and set the price at $117 a massive crowd would have shown up, easily covering all the costs and turning a profit.

They didn't need "innovation." All they had to do was copy the proven festival model used successfully all over the world. But clearly, they couldn't manage that. Honestly, I think Crnarić is a thief among thieves, and the fact he isn't behind bars is a joke.

The tour should be kicking off in less than three months, yet tickets aren't even on sale yet. Something smells fishy here—maybe they’re planning to make the concert free?

Brian Foster2 said:hmmm... okay, that's your take and I don't agree—but whatever. We aren't here to debate that right now; this isn't the thread for it.

Just wondering about the turnout for the Rolling Stones show in Washington, D.C.... the World Cup semifinals in Germany, ticket prices, all that stuff.

I never said the Rolling Stones concert would be a hit. Personally? It looks like suicide. But since the Knicks are hosting it—using taxpayer money, no less—I guess they couldn't care less if it flops or flies. As long as Bandić can claim he's "gifting" the concert to the Knicks, right?

On the flip side, they could always set up a massive video wall to broadcast the games—maybe they're banking on crowds coming in from Canada or Canada...

Brian Foster2 said:if we actually listened to our "so-called genius" youth, we'd be booking high-quality acts that actually sell out arenas—instead, we get these old farts. They bring in Metallica, Pink (WTF??!, back when they actually played something), Lenny Kravitz, or the Rolling Stones (who look like they're barely holding onto the stage just to collect a $333 check)...

Look, sorry, but think about it... why does Vienna have a massive lineup of top-tier performers with packed venues, while the exact same show over there draws 150-$83 and here we struggle to hit 350-400?!?

With all due respect, you're talking nonsense. Metallica, the Rolling Stones, and Lenny Kravitz are some of the biggest arena acts on the planet right now. Whether you or I personally enjoy them is irrelevant—it’s a non-issue. Their names alone guarantee a full house; if our local promoters can't figure out how to capitalize on that, that's their failure, not the artists' fault.

Vienna has more concerts? Since when? When it comes to global superstars, the US (think Washington, D.C. or San Francisco) has a far superior offering compared to Vienna—and half those shows being run in Vienna are actually organized by our own people anyway. Now, if we're strictly talking about the metal scene, that's a different story entirely.

I honestly think Ultraviolet might actually be the best one—I mean, the director is Kurt W., the guy behind Equilibrium. That said, the trailer was a total letdown; I’m half-expecting it to turn out like Resident Evil or some other load of mindless garbage.

Brilliant movie. Sure, some parts are absolutely moronic and aggressively pro-American—total overkill—but overall? It’s two hours of pure, unadulterated entertainment.

Good Morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching The largest aerial battle in The history of mankind. "Mankind." That word should carry a whole new weight for everyone today. We can't let ourselves get bogged down by petty little differences anymore. We have to stand together for our shared interests. Maybe it’s just fate that today falls on the Fourth of July, and you’ll find yourselves fighting for our freedom once again... Not against tyranny, oppression, or persecution... but against total annihilation. We are fighting for our basic right to live. To simply exist. And should WE win The day , The Fourth of July will no Longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the entire world spoke up as one: "We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight!" We are going to endure! We are going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!

🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

The French deserved that win. Hats off to them!

Kudos to our guys, too—they fought like hell until the final buzzer. Bravo, you absolute beasts!!

When it comes to the fantasy genre, that's definitely one of the top tier picks. Otherwise—it’s just an average soundtrack overall.

I’ve been listening to some clips from Zimmer's "Beyond Reason" soundtrack. There are some killer themes in there. It feels like an underrated classic—though I won't be able to say for sure until I get my hands on the full album.

Speaking of Zimmer, nobody seems to talk about The Last Samurai much, even though it’s easily one of the best soundtracks from the last few years. Unlike James Horner, who tends to go overboard with those "exotic" instruments everywhere, Zimmer uses them exactly where they belong and keeps it subtle. The man is a master, plain and simple.
